“Ruined our work christmas night out”

★★☆☆☆

written by Juliusf38 on 09/12/2015

It was our works christmas night out. When i booked i was td that there was entertainment with disco etc. It even states it in the menu. Well the place was empty. We had a party of 7 with only 2 others in the whole place. No disco or entertainment. No buffet just food from the so called christmas menu. Disappointment doesnt describe it. None of us. An get any time off together for another 6 months. Will contact trading standards.

“Worst indian about”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Marlie217 on 21/07/2014

I went there once and never experienced such bad food as this. It is bland, cold and not worth the money they charge. Do yourselves a favour and give up. You have no quality as an Indian restaurant or take away. Go look about and sample the food from places that know their stuff. CHERRYLEAF IN BENFLEET, THE NUTS FOOD.

“good night out and the price is so good.”

★★★★★

written by on 04/02/2014

my wife and i go to this restaurant often we know the staff very well , we have never had a bad meal the staff have never been rude or bad mannered, the food is always of a high standard in fact very high standard , i found the menu was quite large and the staff are willing to explain what is in every dish i have seen them cater for vegetarians coeliacs and vegans and ask this at the first step as you sit down, and also caters for people that want an english meal instead,i do not know how this can be faulted.

“What's Going On?”

★★★★☆

written by Sydkels on 01/02/2014

I looked at all the previous reviews and almost decided against going to this restaurant. No middle of the road reviews, all either five star or one! It was a charity night so I decided to risk it! Result, a very good evening, excellent value for money. All the staff I encountered were efficient and friendly, food was good but if you select more than a couple of meat dishes of course it's going to taste bland, be selective. I checked for dirty dishes, definitely not, dirty toilets, absolute rubbish. The drinks were normal pub prices which surprised me, I expected a bit of a rip of as the food was so cheap! Perhaps previous reviewers have provoked all round improvement? All in all, great value for money, good service, no complaints at all.

“Superb”

★★★★★

written by Alan and Judith on 12/01/2014

We've just celebrated my Mums 70th birthday here today and every one of the 37 adults had a great time and enjoyed the food, the service and certainly had no complaint about the cost. Starters and all you can eat buffet for £8?? Can't go wrong. The staff kept the tables clear and the boss couldn't do enough for us. It's not the first time we've eaten here and it certainly wont be the last. Def recommended.

“Great food in an amazing athmosphere”

★★★★★

written by mattward1992 on 13/12/2013

I was in the area visiting friends and decided to try the tandoori parlour. The food was top notch, I have sampled many indian resturants in the kent and essex area and I have to say that this was up there with the best of them! The chicken pakora was fantastic and my wifes chicken vindaloo was an eye watering beauty! Never again will I resort to a home cooked Pataks cooking sauce when I know that this place is only 10 minutes away and offers such good value for money! On top of the astonishingly tasty and good value menu the athmosphere was superb, I personally enjoyed giving my rendition of the classic "Journey" after a good meal and some drinks at the bar. The music on offer was a good contrast of modern and classic popular with an engaging and fun DJ. Whilst eating in the resturant area although the music was still audible it was in no way too loud and just provided a nice background ambience.

“Excellent”

★★★★★

written by Guest4546 on 09/09/2013

The problem with people my age is that I feel too old to go to a club and too sociable just for a pub. Here I can have a party atmosphere and eat great food. It's what people 30+ need. Seriously this is very good. Great value for money. The private dining area upstairs that seats about 200 is great for functions. Food quality outstanding and a must visit if your wanting a good night out!

“Ruined my night”

★☆☆☆☆

written by HelenD5 on 01/09/2013

What a shame, back in may I had my sons 21st Here and really enjoyed it so I didn't hesitate to Book a hen night here. I checked several times when paying deposits and was assured there would be the karaoke, as it turned out There was no karaoke, While eating The old lady with awful attitude approached me to pay the bill yet 7 people on my table were still eating, at one point she tutted at waiting for me to swallow my food, and I told her I will pay as soon as I had finished eating, I found it so rude. I bought a bottle of wine at the bar and when I asked for 3 glasses she practically bit my head off. Sorry but I absolutely will never return and everyone (23 of us) at the table all said they wouldn't go there again just on the basis of the rudeness of telling me to pay the bill when we were still eating we were all shocked at the rudeness. The night was a total let down and a major disappointment in comparison to the night I had a few months ago. I definitely won't recommend the place. Not one apology either.

“A curry, a night out and great service all in one place!”

★★★★★

written by Robbym on 22/02/2013

Overall a big restaurant with 100 plus dishes to try from (under £8 on a Sunday) Noisy at weekends after 10pm but hey it's Essex Great quality of produce Friendly staff Caters over 400 people 5 star food and hygiene scores on doors The Tandoori Parlour is not your stereo typical Indian restaurant where you can go eat and patronise the waiters. If your interested in what part of India the staff are born in or how good their English is then I suggest you go elsewhere. If however your looking for a curry and a night out (particularly in the weekends) then this is the place to be at. They have a buffet with over 100 dishes for your choice. You can eat all 100+ it's amazing. Their drinks are as cheap as any pubs and they have 2 dance floors where you can have a dance afterwards. You can come in as couples, groups of four or even 300 (yes 300!) if your looking for a quiet night then you can leave before 10pm, if however you expect it to be quiet after 10 on a weekend in Essex then your not really from Essex are you? I have been eating here for over 20 years and have seen the transformation of the restaurant over the years and can say that the food has always been to a high standard. The quality of the meat they use is better than any other Indian I have tried. The chicken is juicy and the lamb tender. The service is slick and cannot be faulted with the management greeting you like old friends even if they haven't seen you in over a year.

“go again”

★★★★★

written by on 16/12/2012

read a few reviews before went didnt know what to expect all i can say was treated really well i just dont know where these so called critics get off if you go to a large indian with dancing your not going to get a cosy little corner this must be the best value in essex music atmosphere and food decent it may not be to everyones taste, but a night out you cant beat, if you want your poppadoms in peace dont come here but if you want a fun night with mates celebrate here you,ll have a good time .

“Felt sick all day after”

★★☆☆☆

written by Hammersx on 06/12/2012

Atmosphere was poor, no sign of the disco that was promised. The food was tasty but felt that it was reheated from the night previously, and the amounts left over after the 12 people that visited all evening would most probably be recycled into tomorrow's meals.

As bad as that sounds I find it difficult to believe purely on the basis that a restaurant as big as the Parlour has a 5 star scores on doors from Environmental Health. Instead of publishing your view on the net you should call the health and do something positive about it assuming its true. The point of your comment is to inform the public of your sons tikka, but action via a phone call to the health inspector would suffice :)

“We had a party of people to celebrate a birthday....”

★★★★☆

written by on 22/07/2012

We had a party of people to celebrate a birthday. Can't fault the food. Very nice and plenty of choice. Waiters all very nice and polite. The only downfall was the rude and arrogant old lady that was behind the bar and walking round the floor. She had a go at a waitress in front of tables of people which is wrong you do that away from customers. She was also very rude to me and a few other people within our group. If she doesn't like her job then she should leave as its clear she is in the wrong job, no customer care or service from her at all. I would suggest if you wish to stay a nice place to go then you ask her to leave as she seems to make the other staff unhappy and you can se she bullies them. However didn't want to spoil what was a good night with good food and entertainment .

“Quality night out in "Thundersley - Essex!!"”

★★★★★

written by on 11/06/2012

Spent last Saturday night at Tandoori Parlour to celebrate my wife's 40th Birthday. There was 25 people in our party and I can now report that an excellent night was had by all. The whole ambience, the food, DJ & Karaoke makes for an all round special evening to remember. Shar, one of the managers is very friendly and approachable for any special requests, that make your evening just that little bit more special. I fully recommend Tandoori Parlour, Thundersley, Essex for one of your best nights out! Thanks Very Much!!!!

We really enjoyed our evening at the tandoori parlour. There was a large selection of buffet dishes and everything we ate was really tasty. I did notice one rice dish looked a little dry and one dish was incorrectly labeled. but all in all the service was good, the food was good, the price was good and we would go back again.
