What davidcF6846KZ doesn't like about Kismet:
I ordered a tarka daal with my main meal, and I reminded the guy several times of this order due to poor service in the past. Despite this it still wasn't served with the meal. I ordered a drink three times and it never came. Take my advice and go to monsoon instead. Very poor service. View all feedback. What User likes about Kismet:
Messenger for my 25. Wedding Year celebration. where we had our first date, we were every year and between. My daughters both had their 18th birthday parties. My Grandad Grandad had his 90. Birthday there, we have known them along time, not even need a menu, wonderful place will always have a soft place for them. View all feedback.

Food was superb as was the service. Recommend the Roshun Fish and Chicken Tikka Dupiaza. Delicious! Will definitely be coming again!

The Kismet Hartshill offers a vibrant atmosphere with a diverse menu that keeps patrons returning. Many diners have praised the quality and freshness of the food, particularly enjoying dishes like thali and garlic fried rice. However, service has proven inconsistent; occasions of poor customer care and seating arrangements marred some experiences. While the friendly staff and welcoming environment shine through, inefficiencies related to reservations and orders suggest areas for improvement. Overall, The Kismet remains a beloved local spot, but it’s best to visit with a reservation and realistic expectations for service consistency.
