Ordered takeaway Starter, two mains,one Keema one Pershwri Starter ok nothing to write home about Tikka Marsala: gravy like water. So sweet it was hard to eat taste nothing like Tikka Mixed Biryani: souch a really strange taste rice not authentic taste veg curry ok...cooked better at home. Keema naan: no meat in it naan rubbery. Peshwari naan: could find the any coconut or almond paste So I called back told a woman on the end of the phone what was wrong , she said sorry and that she would tell the chef ? I said I’ve just spent nearly £40 and that’s it, “well what do you want me to do” I said well I’ve just spent this money and can’t eat any of it, she started getting angry🤬 with me I pushed the point as I had nothing to loose. Someone spoke to her and she then said ok bring it back I make you new one. So now I thought this will prove one way ir the other, either it was just a mistake or this is the quality of the food. They replaced everything so can’t knock them for that and no argument in the restaurant. Got it home and yes you’ve guessed it it was exactly the same. The gravy was slightly thicker the keema naan did have some meat in this time. But still not able to eat any of it. We had food from here before it changed hands and it was lovely really nice hence why we returned. Never going back could have had fish and chips from next door at a 1/3rd or the price I will always praise good service and product when I receive it and give constructive criticism when it not and this unfortunately falls into the latter. Shame another lost customer. One less place in a small town to get a takeawayMore

Amazing way to celebrate daughters 18th birthday! Staff were so attentive- food was delicious. We were a table of 16 and everyone was left happy! My daughter loved the desert on the house and the staff and everyone in the house singing happy birthday. Thank...you so much Curry Inn for making my daughters birthday a special. Will definitely be returning.More

Have been having takeaway from this curry house for about 10 years and food has always been great and we have been happy with it. However, last night our takeaway was £76, which I thought was hugely more expensive than usual and although I know...there has been a cost of living rise the most we have paid in the past has been about £60. You decide if you think it is expensive we had four mains (nothing special so no tandoorimixed grill or anything), two lots of onion bahjis, three rice, a mushroom bahji, a cucumber raitha, a peshwari naan and two chapatis. That is no longer a quick Friday night curry and in fact will now be relegated to special occasions. Shame.More

So disappointing. Had a takeaway - very sloppy sag paneer, very chewy/ gristly and chopped up king prawns in gravy with few veg (was a balti), bland and chewy chicken tikka massala. Used to be so good. Won’t be ordering again.

Ordered a take away ad usually eat in. Very disappointed and won’t bother again. Onion bhaji - hard and cold. Sag bhaji side - tiny portion. 2 spoonfuls in bottom of container. Mains - ok but nothing special. Will try somewhere else next time.

Food was amazing, very attentive staff. Just a shame it took 40 minutes from order to it being on the table. There were only a couple of other people in the restaurant. The food got cold very quickly as they sat us near the door,...despite getting up and closing the door, it was soon propped open again.More

Really terrible curry we had a take away and it was far below average. Would avoid here if you want an actual curry. Really bad tikka masala basically water with poor meat also didn’t get some of the order missing naan bread and bhaje.

once again a superb meal. i had booked a special event for our bridge club from eastbourne yacht club. i asked chef if i brought enough people, would he be kind enough to make an authentic biriani like we have in india. he excelled in...making a huge pot of chicken and another of lamb. my friends were amazed at what they had. they had never had a curry dish like it. me on the other hand, it was just like what i have on the beaches of goa. i appreciate the amount of work involved in doing these dishes right. the evening was a huge success, and the others have said they will be driving past the restaurants in eastbourne where they live, just to eat here again. well done chef and rita! a great evening.....thank youMore

For many years was a visitor to this restaurant, was always great, super great! I placed an order Sunday jist gone, one person at home, ticket was 40 odd quid. Not struggling with the ticket. However….. despite my best efforts couldn’t eat it! Straight away...called to express my dissatisfaction. “Sorry sir, just closing, will talk to chef and call you back” Fair enough. Well, I’ve tried now for another two days….. can not get anyone. I couldn’t eat it…. Really could not eat it. Was laced with more oil than you could imagine in. Kuwait burning oil field…. and truly tasted vile. I’m told new owners. Sad because I remember the days when it really was nice, tasty… great. PS Hate leaving poor reviews?More

Ordered a takeaway, the food was 30 mins late. The madras was very mild as was my son's curry which was supposed to be hot. There was no vegetable curry with the Biriani & no salad & mint sauce with the chicken tikka. Will not...use again.More

Should of gone with my gut after the first time we used them. Telephoned ordered after picking up leaflet in the afternoon when hubby went to collect £10 more when i phoned they said sorry have to go with website prices & not from leaflet...!!! Decided to give it another go, pre- ordered online for collection but then changed our mind. Website states can collect from 5 but we chose 7. Couldn't work out how to cancel online so sent email some 4 hrs before opening time but didn't get acknowledgement so rang dead on 5pm & lady on phone said order was sitting waiting for us !!! Explained we had cancelled & didn't want it ! No customer service skills what so ever all about the moneyMore

Arrived to pick up takeaway at the time I was told, 6.25. They gave it to me at 6.55. No explanation, no apology. Got it home and found it was sloppily packed and had spilled everywhere. Food itself was adequate but that service is just...not okay.More

We invited friends round. Paid quite a lot at 6.06pm to be delivered at 7pm. Rang with politeness after 8pm to enquire whereabouts. The person was too busy to speak with me, constantly talking with others, then cut me off. Food came at 9pm. When...just before that I rang they said they were very busy. If a business is busy that's good; perhaps employ more staff, rather than in effect blame us customers for making you too busy. Sadly, first and last time,More
