Some patrons have praised their traditional dishes, particularly the lamb and bhuna, highlighting the generous portions and decent flavors. However, others have faced disappointing experiences, citing tough meat, overly sweet curries, and missing items in their orders.

Was NolusWorldTours at Dhaanya a mag?

I was surprised to see the reviews here as it is very different from the overall reviews from Just Eat. Curry was delicious. Not greasy and excellent quality. Definitely will be back. Best takeaway curry in a long time! View all feedback.

What Mucho M dislikes about Dhaanya:

This is easily the worst restaurant I have ever been to. I would rather eat paper than their food. Save yourself time and money and avoid this place at all costs. View all feedback.

I ordered here because of uber eats. The tikka massala was sweet and grainy. The naan was chewy. I would not recommend this

I used to always look forward to my curry and naan bread at this restaurant. However, recently, both have changed. The lamb madras was different and the meat was tough. The naan bread was also different, lacking taste and not the usual texture. I usually order two naans but only received one this time (which was actually a good thing). I won't be ordering from here again as I prefer to get good quality for my money.

Ordered a take out for my mother was soo disappointed with the service the delivery was 1 hour late when called the restaurant was greeted by the person on saying Asians like you order £5/£10 food and have no patience’s! This is not the first time I ordered from here I was a regular even when the food was not to standards I let it run past but the abuse this time will not be ordering from them ever again! Please shy away from this place unless you like being insulted.

Ordered here for the first time and were not disappointed. Everything we choose tasted real good. It also came piping hot. Will order again!

Delivery was right on time. (estimated time was 60 minutes though, so... still slow, but expected) They sent an entire carton of juice! (Added a star) The curry itself is fine. You can definitely taste added sugar as previous reviews mentioned. The saag is much too sweet. It takes away from the flavor. It has a lovely flavor though, so I 'm sorry it 's so sweetened. The lamb tikka is just the right amount of spicy for me, which is fantastic, though the website said it would be mild and this might be a bit too much for someone expecting the typical bland flavor of mild I would say this is more on the medium side. The saag has no heat. It 's a good balance, but it would be even better without the sugar. I 've never heard of anyone adding straight up sugar to curry. If they continue to do so, I hope they use less. They did send huge portions, though, so you get your money 's worth. No skimping (as seen with the entire carton or mango juice I recieved) All in all not too bad. Just don 't expect the best curry you 've ever tasted.

I ordered from Dhaanya for the second time, and I was pleased to find that the taste and quality were consistently excellent. The delivery driver was very kind and friendly, and my order arrived on time. I highly recommend this restaurant!

During our stay at the Premier Inn London, we ordered from Dhaanya and were thoroughly impressed. The customer service was excellent, and we felt confident in the reliability of the delivery. The food was absolutely amazing. We couldn't have asked for more! When we visit London again, I hope to order from here once more. 10/10!

The food quality and my experience at Dhaanya's kitchen were outstanding. I will definitely be coming back to this restaurant. It is regarded as the best Indian restaurant in Hackney, London.

I'm not sure why the Google reviews are so negative. My order took some time (perhaps because I ordered through the Just Eat app), but the food was incredibly tasty. It's a bit disappointing that they don't use fresh vegetables, but the flavors were right on target.
