"I booked this restaurant for my mum's birthday. They set our table in the requested sofa area and we got a cosy corner which had been decorated with some small trinkets. My mum likes this restaurant so that's why we booked it. My sister and her bf live in Dalston which is known for Turkish restaurants shoulder to shoulder, they were pleasantly surprised and loved the food. I have been here before with my mum and I think they took extra care cooking the meats this time as all were perfectly cooked.. The fish was a little over cooked but it was still nice. This is not a fine dining restaurant and is your typical take-away or eat inside style place so I was very thankful for the care they took. Our waiter was also very nice but they always are, last time was the same when we went. The house was 3/4 full but I didn't feel like I was waiting."

"Didn’t realised it was Sunday roast day. But it’s fine. We like roasts. Starter was ok, my husband had prawn cocktails and I had mushroom. Main my husband had pork and I had roast chicken instead of beef. They listen to what I want it and delivered. Parsnip was super nice, but Yorkshire was almost burnt. We had profiteroles for dessert, it was tasteless tho, she said with Bailey chocolate sauce but I can’t taste the Bailey. Service was brilliant and the waitress also happy and chatty."

"This was our first time dining at Tandoori Lounge, as we typically frequent another Indian restaurant in Hornchurch. However, we were delighted that we decided to try this place out. The staff welcomed us warmly and promptly seated us at our table. The interior decor was beautiful, creating a comfortable atmosphere. The food was delicious, from the poppadoms to the Lamb Dansak. Our server was friendly and took the time to explain how the dishes could be prepared to our preference (hot, medium, or mild). Overall, we will definitely be coming back to Tandoori Lounge in the future."

"We visited for lunch on a Sunday... Family of nine. I booked about a week in advance and we were given the option of pre ordering which made for a more relaxing time since we only needed the drinks menu when we arrived. We ordered a variety of dishes which all tasted great. I had the Sunday roast pork belly main and calamari starter. Service was excellent from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. The birthday music and lit cake was very well executed. We brought the cake. There is a lot of parking available in the area. The closest one we found was about a two minute walk from the restaurant. If you step out of the restaurant, turn left and left again, you'll see the car park. It's free to park on Sundays. Thank you, Tarantino's."

"Very disappointed with food quality and service. We had booked a table for 13 people, 3 of which which were children. On arrival we were greeted by a lovely waitress who took us to our seats, but then proceeded to ask us to pass the plates and cutlery down the table to where the other guests were yet to arrive. So we set half of the tables, which is bizarre to ask a customer, but she was a lovely girl so it wasn 't a big deal at the time...until things went really downhill. We ordered 3 x £40 mixed grill platters which are meant to serve 3 4 people and asked for rice only, no bulgar. All 3 platters were brought with half rice and half bulgar; we asked the waitress to correct this, and she was apologetic and came back with a bowl of half rice and half bulgar again, we asked for rice on, so she went back and got a bowl of rice. Bearing in mind each platter is meant to serve 3 4 people, I struggled to serve the children an adequate portion they had 2 tablespoons of rice each; that 's how much rice was served with the large grill. My 10 year old niece then pulled out a long strand of hair from the kofteh she was about to eat; absolutely disgusting! Unsurprisingly, the cook wasn 't wearing a hair net, which I presume is standard?? I tried to be tactile and not draw too much attention to the situation to other eating customers, so quietly pulled the waitress aside and gave her the hair; she apologised and had another kofteh cooked (actually felt sorry for the girl, she looked mortified). The crunch came when we went to eat the chicken wings and baby chicken so many were raw pink and red raw meat! We told the waitress and she was insistent that it was cooked, but took it back believe me we have cooked chicken before and know what raw meat is. We were shocked when the same chicken was re cooked and then served back to us bear in mind, by this point the chicken had already cooled down from the first time it was cooked, centre was raw, and then re cooked and served again! There was no way we would 've touched it; also keep in mind that some of the chicken had come off different guests ' plates and were bitten into how were we supposed to know which piece was who 's?? So bizarre, I 've never had this happen, even in the cheapest small café. By this time to be honest we were off our food. The meat wasn 't great really; some was ok; the chicken shish was ok, the lamb chops were also ok; the chicken kofteh had no flavour; the kofteh was very greasy; the rice was wet. On a high note, the lahumajun was lovely and so were the dips and bread. When it came to the bill, we made it clear the chicken should be taken off, as none was eaten by anyone. When the waitress came and handed the bill over and was asked if the chicken was removed from the bill, her response was I 'm just a worker who else are we supposed to ask then? Why the attitude?! We had the right to complain after being served raw meat! The cook/owner then came over, leaned over me, with a plate of chicken hovering above my head and my face in his armpit, and started to argue with another guest that we didn 't ask for the chicken to be well done; no spacial awareness or respect for one 's space whatsoever. I didn 't realise we had to request for our chicken not to be raw; absolutely ridiculous. He knocked off £15 and for a £170 bill and the awful experience, I think that was insulting. He then knocked off a bit more, and we just accepted as wanted to get out of there. The same waitress came back and cleared the table, slamming the plates onto the trays no manners whatsoever and clearly showing she 's pissed off. Such a shame; all other guests witnessed this while they were trying to eat; could 've been totally avoidable. Why risk your reputation? I 've never had to ever make a complaint like this before, let alone write such a review. If you choose to eat here, check your meat is thoroughly cooked, or you 'll be poisoned!"
