    I visited them for the first time over 2 months ago and never got such a hard and cold chicken. I was unable to cut it in some places... I returned it to the kitchen and after a while waiter came back and said that the cook refused to replace it and that the chicken should to be so hard & dry. Shock!!! I'll never go back there.

    Went there last week with my girlfriend . We wanted to give it a go as we have visited many Indian restaurants in Cardiff. The restaurant has been recently opened so we were not sure whether to go or not as there are not many reviews on google. It was a good choice ;) The food is outstanding ,you can tell that everything’s fresh and you can see it being made as the kitchen is in the dining room . The staff was very helpful and friendly . The only con is that they cannot sell the alcohol yet but hey ho you can bring in your own booze 🍷. I’d give it more than 5 stars if I could .

    Curry tasted nice, chips were okay and naan bread was lovely. Shame that the curry was very watery and took away the flavour quickly.

    We went to Maya's for the first time late Saturday afternoon with my 7 year old daughter and husband, staff were very helpful and although they didn't have a kids menu, they catered for my daughter with something especially for her fussy tastes. My husband and I both enjoyed our popadoms, onion bhagee starters and vegetarian mains... paneer masala and sag paneer were both very tasty and the giant garlic nan was huge with a lovely texture and flavour. The portions were so generous that we couldn't eat it all so the waiter kindly offered to box it up for us. The restaurant had a large booking of friends sat at the back watching the football and they looked like they had a great night watching the match with BYO beers and delicious food...great idea! I returned this evening to collect my purse which I had unknowingly dropped, I am super grateful for the honest staff keeping it safe behind the till. Huge relief to be reunited with it so a heartfelt thanks once again! I would highly recommend this restaurant and we look forward to enjoy another meal in the near future!

    Really nice food. Waitress struggles to comprehend much but was a really good meal. Chef came out at the end to see if we were happy. Really well presented dishes and tasteful decor

    1 star rating as the food was nice but we waited over 2 hours for it. Do not order from here if you're hungry and expecting the food to arrive quickly. Very frustrating trying to communicate with staff. They keep telling you the food is 15-20 minutes away and this goes on for more than an hour. In the end had to ask for the delivery driver's number so that I could ask him how long he'd actually be and it finally came 20 minutes after. I understand when a restaurant is busy but if the wait times were truthfully advertised, there would be no need for frustration.

    Unfortunately they use a very watery and bland base gravy. All the curries I’ve had have tasted the same. The portions were large but borderline inedible

    Don't order from here, ordered from deliveroo 40mins late I call them up for him to say they can't deliver and for me to cancel. Why on earth are you on a delivery site for 😂 he even asked if I could pick it up well clearly not otherwise I would've done that in the first place 😂 waste of time waited here starving to death waiting for food that they clearly wasn't even making 😂 have more chance of Russia actually taking over Ukraine then this place delivering your food, they must've been cooking the rice by the grain as they totally forgot they had to deliver it

    After telling us our uber eats order had left "5 minutes ago" when it was past the estimated delivery time, it turns out they had never looked at it up and never started cooking it when we enquired another 30 minutes later (now 90 minutes after order). Did click for a refund. Completely untrustworthy and I would not order again. EDIT: We have been charged by UberEats with the restaurant claiming that they had made the food already. I can only imagine they are engaging in fraudulent practices, charging for things they never make. I can only suggest that no-one orders from here and Albany Rd can be rid of them. I would give no stars if Google allowed me to!

    Absolutely disgusting! Please do not order from here. It will be a waste of money trust me. I spent £25 and the only thing was ok was the biryani. Chips was refried in the microwave and dogs wouldn’t even eat it. The lamb korai was full of big onions and maybe 3 picese meat with no spice whatsoever. Lamb tikka was bad. Vegetable side not even worth my time to write about. Nan bread, you might as well eat kings mill bread with curry. £2 bottle coke and he wanted £4 Food was medium to cold. Went for an holiday and end up with this terrible meal. Read reviews and forget the 5 star fake ones. If you can’t find any other place then just go for chicken and chips from your local chip shop.

    Ordered a meal last Friday at 5 25 was told it would be 45 minutes nearly an hour had gone by and no sign of the meal so phoned the restaurant and told it was on its way waited another 15 to 20 minutes and still no sign so rang again and we're told driver couldn't find the address so we're told it would be sent back in about half an hour to that I said it better be hot the gentleman I spoke to said it would be done fresh so we had to wait another half hour well when it did eventually arrive the chips were cold rice was luck warm and the curry was cold and discusting wasn't happy at all and won't be ordering from them again not a very happy customer at all.

  • 2/5 Jessica S. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely food, however delivery took 2.5 hours, and was supposed to take 30 mins. Every time we called they told us it would be out for delivery in 10 minutes or it had just left etc, but it still took a long time. Obviously lying rather than apologising and giving us accurate information. Didn’t get our food until gone 9pm. It’s a shame as the food was nice, but the service wasn’t. Wouldn’t buy there again

  • 1/5 Mohammed A. 1 year ago on Google
    Does not respect his delivery drivers. Pays well below minimum wage. Communication skills very poor. Restaurant has no decent drivers because he pays so badly & yes food is frequently late. You don't need to take my word for it just look at the reviews.
