    We enjoyed a lovely family meal here, all sixteen of us. The staff were amazing: so kind, helpful and approachable. Thank you for making our visit so pleasant. As for the food, impeccable! Hats off to the chefs. What a marvellously talented team you are! Keep up the great work. We will definitely be back soon.

    This is without a doubt the best Indian restaurant I have ever dined at. The service is exceptional, with the manager spending time talking through different items on the menu. Then once the food arrived it was presented beautifully. The taste of the food is fenominal. This food is truly deserving of multiple Michelin stars.

    I visited La Pondicherry tonight and must say was very disappointed! I understand they were extremely busy however I feel there should’ve been much better communication between staff members. First of all, we were sat at the table right outside the kitchen (table 17), I was facing the kitchen and saw one of the waiters put both of our curries in the microwave , which put me off from the start! Both of our curries were very tasteless and watery. I found a piece of metal in my curry and we ordered a cheese and garlic naan which had no cheese on. I hate to complain, however after spending £70 for 2 of us it’s not good enough. Unfortunately will not be returning :(

    Used this restaurant for some time paid a fortune for a delivery same price as the restaurant prices and a delivery charge. No discount on restaurant prices to have delivery so paid £70 for a takeaway and food was poor. The tandoori chicken masala was just mush and not Even whole chicken pieces, the Yoghurt and mint was like water and the Naan bread was soggy. This is the last time I will use this restaurant as this was that poor for the price it was a rip off and disgusting food we threw most of it away!

    We went on a Wednesday evening and you can choose from the set menu which is good value. It's two courses plus a nan and rice. Service is great well looked after, and they are very attentive. The only thing that frustrates me is the cost of the beer (cobra) this £5.95 a pint. I don't believe anyone should be charging that price.

    Very rude service that we vacated without even reaching the ordering stage. We wanted a seat next to the walls and there were plenty free but they preferred us to leave rather than relocate us. It was the first time we went and it will be the very last!

    La pondicherry is by far the best restaurant I use. Nothing is ever too mich trouble for them. We come on most special occasions. Spent last Christmas day there and we are there again this year. All the staff are amazing. Ignore the fake scam reviewers. Try it for yourself I assure you that you won't be disappointed

    Was really looking forward to trying pondicherry but was disappointed, the staff seem great the starters were slightly above average but the main meals were worst than ready meals the chicken is frozen cheap chicken the stuff you get in a 25kg block and the sauces have very little taste. The place had a strange toilet smell too, it was a bit off putting. Won’t be trying again !!!

    This restaurant is great. No complaints at all. For those with Hearing Impairments or Sensory needs, it is very noisy when busy, it's just the building that makes it that way.

    Fantastic evening spent with my family, being served wonderful food by the friendly staff who went out of their way to ensure we enjoyed the experience. Will definitely be returning!
