Indian restaurant in Orpington

“My 1st visit was November 24 and somehow I got mixed feelings for this place. After reading good reviews and that they have been rewarded one of the best when I went there felt a little disappointing. Stuff were absolutely chaotic and shouting to one another not paying attention to clients. The menu was missing many meals who can you have a fish section and only serve prawns and no other fish. I ordered keema naan and it was crispy and had like a blob of meat in the middle. Most of the food I eat in other places is far better. The atmosphere with this blue light is blinding.”

“Recently discovered this place and all I can say is the food is amazing. The flavours of the food is 100% indian as the name. Do visit the place guys highly recommended from my side.”

“The food was excellent, the portion sizes were just right, the staff were friendly and helpful and the ambience was great. This was my first visit, but I’ll most definitely be back.”

“Visited Saturday for a dinner without reservation. Food was great, portion side was good too. Desserts were different and I was pleasantly supriced. Well done. Friendly and polite waiter.”

“Amazing food! Come here regularly. Delivery is always super fast and food is piping hot. This family owned business always puts in special touches and take the time to speak to you, whether it's over the phone or face to face. Great job guys”

“Great food and attentive waiters. New items on the menu which look good so we will be back to try. Popular with our friends who travel from outside of Orpington to enjoy. Only slight comment is about the lighting, please please change ‘bright’ light bulbs for ‘soft’ light bulbs to make a better ambience. Just turning them down doesn’t really work as they are too harsh but everything else Amazing.”

“Love the chicken bhunna quick service”

“Honestly the best Indian going the man who deals with the calls he’s always so amazing and kind. The food is the delicious and the price omg so good beats any Indian around!!! Thank you guys for your on going great service and great food flavours are out of this world xxx”

“UPDATE TO BELOW REVIEW.. Just did another order, which they cancelled, when calling the guy claimed we are out of their delivery area and are too far. Which makes 0 sense. He was also blunt and emotionless. Also seemed to imply I was lying about ordering before.. shame after left such a good review lasttime. Will now seek elsewhere. ----- Orginal review below. If you're searching for the most authentic, flavour-packed Indian meal, look no further! This was, without a doubt, the most flavoursome Indian food I’ve ever had. The Lamb Tikka Phall was fiery and rich, bursting with bold spices yet beautifully balanced. The Chicken Chat Puri Starter (extra hot!) delivered a delightful kick with succulent, well-seasoned chicken wrapped in soft, warm puri—perfection! The Keema Rice was another knockout, infused with deliciously spiced minced meat and the perfect amount of heat. Every dish was cooked to absolute perfection, the sauce was thick and indulgent, the meat was tender and full of flavour, and everything arrived hot and steaming, just as it should. Timing was spot on, proving that they care about both quality and service. Of course, the papadam added that satisfying crunch to round off an unforgettable meal. A truly exceptional dining experience—I’ll definitely be ordering again! Highly recommend.”

“Delicious Indian food with really pleasant and friendly staff. Portions are good and the food is well presented. Highly recommended, we'll definitely be returning :)”

“Best Indian Restaurant around , have used the village cuisine for years and the food has always been fantastic , staff always go out of their way to chat to you and remember your names and the food gets better and better.”

“Another excellent meal lovely food and service. Served quickly.”

“Wanted a Sunday curry, and went to Little India and came out very very happy. The staff were exceptional and extremely friendly, and best of all the curries (lamb, chicken, prawn and daal is what we got) were flawless. Could not fault the restaurant if I tried, and will defiantly be back.”

“They are BACK! The team at Simla Balti make easily the best curry I’ve ever come across in the South East and I’m so glad they have reopened after over 3 months closure. The food is delicious, always piping hot and consistently amazing. They will customise all your favourites just how you want them, little bit hotter or not, sauce from one with chicken from another dish etc. Great prices and really friendly staff. Thanks Simla Team, best curry for miles!”

“Very happy with service. The food is always nice. Would highly recommend.”

“We have been here a few times now and honestly, it just keeps getting better and better. The staff is lovely and very accommodating. The food is absolutely delicious and probably some of the best Chinese food in the area. I have made my mission to try a new dish every time we go back just so that I can go through the whole menu. That’s how much I enjoyed it.”

“Normal curry menu PLUS huge number of Indian dishes not seen before. Take a look at their menu, got to try a few. Friendly with good service too. Recommended. There is also a proper beer available.”

“We just moved to the area and this was our first indian order! We expected to try at least a few places as it is difficult to find a proper tasty Indian, but this was just perfect! The food was hot and delicious, it was made extra spicy as we requested. You definitely got yourself a new regular customer because we are not going anywhere else!”

“Excellent food, very generous portions, a number of traditional dishes beautifully presented. Catered for a lunch party of 30 people, very happy with the food quality, portions and friendly service. Would definitely use them again.”

“I loved the service and the the food was great theu have lots of variety. Will order again”

“We had an excellent dinner in the restaurant. The service was attentive and friendly. They even accommodated some requests that weren't on the menu. The food was fresh and delicious. A standard above most Indian restaurants. Heartily recommend.”

“Always yummy, cheap cheerful punctual and generous portions. I order of just eat but couriers always polite too.”
