THE TASTE of BENGAL

Just moved to Dumfries and my mum and I really like Indian takeaways, so we decided to give taste of bengal a go as the first takeaway to try since moving here. Ordered at 6.45pm and was told it’d be 45-60 mins delivery. Got an estimated delivery time of between 7.40-8pm. Got to 8.20pm and still no food. My mum decided to call the takeaway to see what was going on, only for the guy on the phone to be completely dismissive, claiming it normally always takes this long for deliveries!? Said it was with the driver now and wouldn’t be long. Got to 8.45pm and still no food! My mum rang again, only to have the phone be put down on her. She rang once again, asking where the food was, the guy tried to tell us it had already been delivered. Put us on hold to ring the driver. Food eventually arrived around 5 mins later, 2 hours after we had ordered. Food was cold and therefore the food wasn’t nice, and the service was just shocking. Will definitely not be ordering from here again.

Stayed a few days in Dumfries and got a delivery from here. For £23 we got cold food, chips that looked like Mcdonalds fries and onion bhajis you couldnt get a knife through. Korma had about 5 small bits of chicken that were so dry, madras wasn't much better. Never again, not worth the money.

Very disapointing Chicken tikka masala one very large carton of sauce with only 4 pieces of chicken, sauce tastless very little spice in it. Definitely not worth £8.70. Nan Bread cold and doughy.Won't be using again.

Was told after already waiting 1hr for the meal we ordered via Just eat, that once we went to collect it that it would be a further 10-15 minutes. We then stood and waited another hour and a half before we eventually got our food. Definitely not worth the money as everything we got was greasy and not very good, all 3 naans we got were beyond burnt and for sure not worth the 2hr wait or all that money!

Ordered Chicken Tikka main, what I received was a few small pieces of black chicken with fried onions in a tray swimming in grease. Disgusting.

Best take away in town. The currys are fantastic and meat is very tender, and very well priced. I especially like the pakora sauce. Most definitely 10/10. Staff are very friendly and helpful. I would certainly recommend this Takeaway for Indian cuisine. Thanks Taste of Bengal for the superb meals, will be back .

King prawn jalfrezi. 5 small not king prawns very saltyWorst I have had very poor quality and value

Tikka chasni had 6 tiny pieces of chicken, just a big tray of sauce. Garlic naan had no garlic, poppadoms were soggy and the daal was like water. We used to love this place, won't be back, plenty of competition in Dumfries to be serving food like this.

Totally the best Indian takeaway in Dumfries in my opinion. The Lamb Dhansak is out of this world....

Ordered food last night with friends. It was disgusting most went in the bin, never again. Should have stuck to the Greedy Coo it's fab.
