first class authentic Indian cuisine. fantastic, friendly staff. I can't recommend the naga huh enough, especially if they are a lover of a good vindaloo. all 3 ordered dishes were full of taste, well cooked, and not with this terrible fat and oil that some put them. the best cheese naan in the opposite. look forward to coming back soon, thanks for a great night!

What 159TheresaP dislikes about Joy Express:

I have never experienced such slow and indifferent service at a restaurant before. My party and I waited for an hour and a half for our meals, just like all the other customers in the restaurant. It was clear that the staff was prioritizing takeout orders and deliveries over the dine-in customers. View all feedback.

Only my companion and I in the restaurant tonight. Joy is a new place to eat Indian cuisine and the menu has some exclusive dishes and standard classics. Since we were the only ones there, we received quite good attention, although they also left us alone to enjoy our meal uninterrupted. The food was definitely of excellent quality. Even the poppadoms and dips were above average. We enjoyed the signature spinach chicken and ginger, as well as basmati rice and bringi bargi. Good background music. Clean restaurant and bathrooms. A complimentary liquor as well. Very happy to recommend this new place in Southborn. Check out the Wednesday banquet deal for £12.95 per head for a 3-course meal. Give it a try.

I went with friends, one of whom was running late and the restaurant was very patient with us until we arrived. The restaurant was very busy and it appears to give vouchers for Thursdays. The food was excellent, we had a Naga curry that was very hot and tasty. We all enjoyed what we had. So we booked through tablepouncer and the bill was excellent.

My partner and I were the only ones in the restaurant tonight. Joy is a new Indian cuisine eatery with a menu featuring some signature dishes along with the classic favorites. Despite being the only diners, we received good attention and were able to enjoy our meal without interruption. The food was of excellent quality, including the poppadoms and dips. We particularly enjoyed the chicken and ginger with spinach dish, as well as the basmati rice and brinjal bargi. The restaurant had nice background music, clean facilities, and even offered a complimentary drink. I highly recommend this new spot in Southborn. Be sure to check out their Wednesday Banquet for £12.95 per person for a 3-course meal. Don't miss out!

Despite booking, we were sat on a table in the hallway to the toilet. They did re-seat us when asked. They seem to prioritize the takeaway trade over the diners. Service was a bit slow. Food was really nice though.

The service at this restaurant was excellent! The staff were attentive and friendly. However, the food didn't quite suit our preferences, but that might be because we are accustomed to our usual favorites. There was nothing inherently wrong with the food, it just wasn't our personal favorite.

First class authentic Indian cuisine. fantastic, friendly staff. I can't recommend the naga huh enough, especially if they are a lover of a good vindaloo. all 3 ordered dishes were full of taste, well cooked, and not with this terrible fat and oil that some put them. the best cheese naan in the opposite. look forward to coming back soon, thanks for a great night!

Absolutely delicious food, great service with a good sense for humor! and although they don't have it on the menu, they made me the most amazing chili nan! this restaurant cannot recommend enough! if you like good Indian food, they will definitely not regret to go here!
