    You know when you're always unsure about moving away from your regualr "Take away"..? Ours advised a 1/2 hr wait for our order ,we opted for "Somewhere else" And what can I say apart from WOW ,these guys are working their hands to the bone to produce your food you've had tonight ,the kitchen is open for all to see our service was prompt and very professional the atmosphere buzzing it works like a well olied machine in is a culanery marvel in it's own right to watch,it's clean ,it smells divine ,we had to wait a little longer than atated but the staff were quick with an apology and we were cool with that. The portions are more than enough ,the food is hot ,fresh and beautifuly flavoured ,we orderd Chicken tikka masala with pakoras,I had a combi mixed starter and Chicken balti Dansak ,there are two empty plates ,two full tummies and a sound reassurance that we will be coming back from our Hapton base Thanks Guys that was great Akash revisited Two more delightful experiences from this great take away,hot food,tasty food ,great menu,easy to navigate the app ... this place is super quality gents ,value for money .. a little gem we've found in Acci ... thank you

    Orders have been wrong for the last 3 weeks for one reason or another, each time they have promised it would be corrected next time. Tonight a main meal was missing which they admitted had been missed off because the person on the phone couldn’t hear proper cause of the noise in the shop. Said they would have to charge again if they where to bring this. When you order staff haven’t a clue what’s what on the menu and When I spoke to management and tried to explain what had happened wasn’t one bit interested and shouted down the phone. Ordered from this take away for 20 years, never again ! Staff haven’t a clue what’s on the menu and repeating yourself over and over when trying to place and customer service horrendous.

    Used for first time a couple of months ago …… and as a rule, I dont do take always BUT now this could change. Superb portions, great quality of food/meat and amazing flavours - v good prices and super service . Had friends round at the weekend (who had travelled a long distance) , we wanted a curry (or few) but wanted to impress our guests …… this is exactly what happened. Brilliant curry banquet and selection out on and everyone was happen! Thank you for impressing each time we’ve used you, and long May this continue. Great work….. keep it up and a huge thank you. Jackie and Dale xx

    The food is delicious, their range is fantastic, and they will do specials (like a portion of sauce only) if you ask. The chicken pakora are to die for, but the chapattis can be a bit iffy depending on who cooks them (they're better mid-week than the weekend). My Indian of choice.

  • 1/5 pam k. 9 months ago on Google
    I ordered a curry with the description - Hot Cubes of Indian cheese, crushed garlic, little balti onions, spicy & saucy, mixed herbs - mixed vegetable. I ordered HOT. The paneer was anything but hot, and having received the free veg curry sauce with another dish, I can see what's happened here. A few chunks of paneer have been thrown into the free veg curry sauce and passed off as a completely different dish. Very disappointed.

    So so disappointed, first time ordering from here and wanted the classics, korma and masala, I’m 99% sure it’s been frozen and reheated with a layer of water sat on the top and the korma had actually separated, at £11 a curry, I was expecting it to be as good as a masala and korma gets. The mushroom fried rice was good. Overall probably wouldn’t order again.

    Food is absolutely fantastic. I collected and was missing one item and when I rang to let them know, they could not do enough to correct. Fantastic service and food.

  • 1/5 David W. 11 months ago on Google
    I ordered at 22: 00 and it had arrived by 22: 17 ! Absolutely impossible that this food is freshly prepared! And the starter was cold ... disappointed is an understatement. I will never order again Akash !!!! Stop advertising that your food is freshly made !!!

    Been using Akash since we moved here 8 years ago. The food is always hot, meat is tender, paneer is lovely and the flavours are something else! We've been to Indians all over the country and nothing compares to Akash.

    Always my go to for a curry, tastes great cooked to collect quickly. Prices have gone up and portions are shrinking is the only downfall

  • 4/5 Hayley G. 5 months ago on Google

    Best Indian takeaway around, the price is good and the food is excellent. Delivery is always good and the delivery guy is a well mannered and nice guy who always closes the garden gate behind him....unlike Royal mail!

  • 4/5 Debbie P. 1 year ago on Google
    Wow just had a very tasty meal. Onion bhaji starter, chicken tikka main meal and a garlic nann. Yummy. Will definitely get again

  • 1/5 Mark F. 1 year ago on Google
    First time using this restaurant, and it’s sad when you try a new restaurant/ Takeaway. Maybe I am unlucky we bought 3 meals on line Popadoms etc. looking forward to it. Only for us we feel not the best. We looked at the reviews and hygiene, as you do. A lot of good reviews. Not sure if I dare waste paying for this place take away. Hard to understand how different Indian restaurants can be miles away from each other. Result this one non of us enjoyed it, ended up in the bin. Sorry I am sure they mean well.

  • 5/5 Miraj U. 4 years ago on Google
    Service and food was spectacular! Shoutout to one of the workers that has the onion cut! He seems like a guy that will be lonely all his life with that haircut but was was so polite and well mannered , also gave me an excellent recommendation! Definitely ordering again! :-)

  • 5/5 Sean W. 2 years ago on Google
    Simply the best curry house for miles,,, its a must for new orders if not tryed before

  • 5/5 Ade N. 4 years ago on Google
    Akash was recommended as the best in the area and it didn't disappoint. Ordered the award winning Megnah and it was superb. Can't wait to try another curry from the extensive menu.

  • 1/5 Avril f. 2 years ago on Google

  • 1/5 Sadaf S. 2 years ago on Google
    I have ordered first time today and Very disappointed .. Never again ....Curries wasn't Cooked properly and no flavour in it . I thought they had good reviews so I should try their food but unfortunately I am very disappointed and will never ever order from Akash again.

  • 1/5 Joseph D. 2 years ago on Google
    Paid £16.25 for mix tikka passanda. 1 nan 1 chapati and shish kebab. Came with salad and a small curry mix. Can only say NEVER AGAIN poor warmed up kabab. The passanda was 95% rice with small unidentifiable pieces of dry meat and the curry sauce was almost an onion gravy. NO MORE TAKEAWAY FROM HERE. If this was eat in it would be closed by now. SOONER THE BETTER

  • 4/5 Nicola G. 3 years ago on Google
    Had quite a wait. Poppadoms and chutney etc were very nice. Combo kebab starter, could have been spicier. Chicken and lamb currys were absolutely lovely, loads of meat. Will be ordering from here again 👍
