    I've been going to the Flavour for over 15 years. They've recently had new management. I've been there twice since the change of management. Both experiences were poor but tonight's was dreadful. Incredibly slow service. Below standard food. Unresponsive to complaints. Not interested in keeping a loyal customer. I won't be returning. Please don't waste your time or your money. Updated - This review was for the flavour of India. The new management under Indian Valley is completely the opposite. A complete turn around and a regular of ours now.

    I used to like eating at this place a year back. The service is good the guys at the hotel are very friendly. But now the food portions have reduced quite a bite and the price per item is high compared to quantity being served (one plate is enough for just one person, so order one plate of each dish for everyone). The biggest disappointment was that there was a fly and later a mosquito (haven't seen one of those in the UK before) hovering around the table which was really embarrassing because I took a family friend for dinner there and he commented that it felt like he was in India (he was being sarcastic!). I guess the hotel is focussing on home deliveries more which is a shame as the food is still tasty.

    The Best Indian in Orpington!! The food is full of flavour and aroma, nice thick sauces and big portions. They have changed owners since October and the guys running the place are locals with years of experience. Fast deliveries and great value for eating in. Check it out, you won't be disappointed!

    I would rate it a 0 if I could. Flavourless slop. Do yourself a favour and go to masala dabbas instead! I won’t be making this mistake again.

    Had a lovely delivery from Flavour of India, in Cotmandene Crescent. The new guys were previously at Royal Spice which I used to use for a long time. Heard about them so had to rush and order! Missed that taste and so happy it is back so close to home!

    Very good and improved from how it used to be. However, the website is currently down and has been for a good number of days so no menu is available. Until the menu and online ordering is back, I'm back to using the Simla.

    We just moved to the area and this was our first indian order! We expected to try at least a few places as it is difficult to find a proper tasty Indian, but this was just perfect! The food was hot and delicious, it was made extra spicy as we requested. You definitely got yourself a new regular customer because we are not going anywhere else!

    Got the shrimp curry here today. Shrimp was pretty good and curry was fine as well. The naan was very satisfying also. Pricing is also very fair imo. Overall a nice meal.

    Just had my 1st and last takeaway from this place, ordered a vindaloo and it turned up luke warm and not even as hot as a madras! Definitely will avoid this joint!
