    Zero stars if that were possible. Absolutely horrible place. Paid €25 for a mega box plus delivery. It was covered in huge grains of sugar, sickly sweet, like chewing sand. Completely inedible. Rang the takeaway and they claim that it wasn’t a mistake and that’s the “way the spices are made”. I explained I had never had huge grains of sugar in SALT and chilli chicken. He said it was my fault for not liking it and that they couldn’t refund me for inedible food before HANGING UP ON ME. Extremely rude person on the phone. I wouldnt eat from there again if they paid me. Don’t waste your money, get your takeaway from the many other NICE places in Drogheda

    The food is DROWNED in succulent seasoning: Sweet with a hint of spice and salt. The food is always hot, and it never disappoints with the amount of food put into the spice boxes. The food is soft and delicate on the inside, whereas it's crispy on the outside. I've asked for extra onions multiple times, and they never fail my expectations when I see heaved onions sprinkled on top. My delivery? It got here in 15 to 18 minutes! The delivery man is always nice that greets us.

    i ordered food from this restaurant and it took over 1 hour and a half hours but i didnt mind the time taken for the food to arrive, my problem was that the food came cold and was not even luke worm, i called the restaurant up and talked to the manager. The manager was rude and wouldn’t let me speak and would not let me explain my problem, i tried to ask him why it came cold and at what time the food was finished cooking and was ready for delivery so i can estimate the time taken to from the restaurant to my house and see how long it took for the food to get as cold as the food came (keep in mind its a 10min drive to my house),anyways he completely ignored me and started yelling telling me it was “ very hot” and the food was still in perfect condition and so on. overall awful experience

    The Gent that served me was so nice and friendly but unfortunately the 4 in 1 wasn't so nice. It didn't really taste like curry and the "chicken" didn't taste or feel like chicken. ☹ He gave us free prawn crackers too which was really nice.
