The Indian restaurant received mixed reviews, with some calling it the worst in Essex due to stale popadoms and lackluster dishes, while others praised the amazing meals and friendly staff. Customers complained of incorrect orders and missing items, while others were impressed with the excellent communication and helpful delivery drivers. Despite the negative feedback, there were also glowing reviews of delicious food, a welcoming atmosphere, and attentive service. Overall, opinions were divided on this restaurant, but it seems worth trying for those seeking a new dining experience in Benfleet.
