Indian Kitchen - York

Ordered a prawn corma and butter huh, both were only desiccated kokos and water (which had started to separate until it arrived) with either frozen garnish or gristly han, no seasoned, no taste, slenderness and cold, I threw mine into the mine, my sohn. was ravenous so ate some of his, unfortunately ended. have been notified to the Council. I can't understand how everyone thinks it's in order to charge people money for this indefinite mum, I'm inclined to believe the excellent reviews they have faked and they can guarantee that the chef does not eat his own food. nasty, please see photos that do not show the full scare of what we have received.

In my 60's now and I've been a lifelong fan of Indian food, having lost count of how many curries I've had. The Lamb Jill Mill' was exquisite if you have a yearning for something extra spicy. Fiery, full of flavour and packed with lean,...succulent diced lamb. My only complaint is that I live 200 miles away from this restaurant and ordered when in York on business! The following time I was in Indian Elachi, I ordered SIX of these curries and went in to pick them up instead of a delivery. They freeze well back at home and I now have just one left to enjoy. Another great thing about Indian Elachi is you can see the food being prepared, which not many restaurants allow. Ignore some of the bad reviews here it is under new management and the service was efficient and polite. And the food? Absolutely marvellous!

Ordered at 17:57. Delivered at 19:41. No salad, no sauce and cold. Pakora batter was too thick and unpleasant to eat. Tried to call but took 40 minutes for them to answer by which time it was on its way. Would have preferred correct order,...on time instead of online discount. Very disappointing. We will use a more reliable take-away in future.

I have never written a review before but felt really disappointed this eve. I ordered a dansak from here, which is one of my favourite indian dishes. I don't mind mediuim spiced food and every dansak I have ordered from other indian restaurants I have...never had a problem eating. However I took one mouthful and it was extremely spicy (even my husband who likes hot dishes said it was spicy for him), in fact it was even spicier than his hot chilli masala . I telephoned to check I had been given the correct dish and the person on the other end told me yes. I explained that I was unable to eat it and how I had, had this dish many times before but I wasn't offered any alternative. That said, my husband enjoyed his meal and thank goodness for the onion bhaji, naan and rice. It was just disappointing about my meal.

We have had a few takeaways from Indian Elachi- I don't often post reviews but I wanted to because the food is exceptional. The naan breads are exquisite- so soft and flavourful, rice dishes are well cooked and tasty- we really like the passandas as...an alternative to a Korma as we like mild curries. The service is good, it is VERY good value and they always give you free extras to sample. With the 15% off deal we can get a meal for the 4 of us for 20 quid and leftovers! Would not go anywhere else- Thanks!
