What User likes about Shunam Tandoori:
I have eaten in many Indian / Asian restaurants. this was a very peaceful and relaxing/colm atmosphere. eating was better than most chic Indian places. taste was just right. chefs must be some of the best. View all feedback. What Olga Salih doesn't like about Shunam Tandoori:
The food was bland and lacking any flavour or spices. The taste had nothing to do with Indian cuisine. Popadoms were the only thing that tasted good. The staff are really nice, but the food is below average at best. View all feedback.

Sunam Indian Restaurant in Hassocks receives a mixed bag of reviews. While some patrons have experienced dismal dishes missing the authentic flavors of Indian cuisine—citing overly sweet curries and bland sauces—many others praise the establishment for its warm service and delightful food. Regulars commend the attentive staff, traditional ambiance, and well-balanced meals, including flavorful vegetable dopiaza and crispy naan. The restaurant offers a nostalgic dining experience, where value for money is evident, with most meals reasonably priced. Despite occasional inconsistency, Sunam remains a favored spot for those seeking a genuine Indian dining experience.
