Memories of India — Restaurant in Chichester

The worst Indian we’ve ever been to.. AVOID.

Staff here are unbelievably rude - to the point they single out guests and continue to target them for “funny jokes”. Firstly only the men in our 10 group were asked what they wanted to drink. We had to request a further drinks order be taken to cover everyone else. Secondly our food order was then taken in the most bizarre way, suprise suprise, meaning that we were missing multiple dishes and had to request our orders be taken for items such as rice. Once the food finally did arrive, we were left with only the curry dishes for a good 5/10 minutes before any of the rice or side dishes ordered appeared. When we queried the missing dishes we’re were told they were only the table and the waiter even tried to go so far to tell us a keema naan was a garlic naan despite us ordering three and there clearly not being there. Finally the quality of the food was awful - a good number of our party refused to eat the dodgy substance served up as chicken, the rice was dry and undercooked, an the onion bhajis appeared to be battered (to the point a fish would be battered).. not a single dish could be recommended.. so overall this is the single worst place I have ever had the miss-pleasure of eating and I couldn’t and wouldn’t recommend anyone waste their time and money eating here.

Just to add a further update - a number of the group have also since been unwell within the past 24hrs since going to this establishment… like I...

Avoid this place at all costs. Ordered a takeaway and the packaging was absolutely pathetic—cheap, flimsy, and clearly not fit for purpose. The paper bag gave out completely, and the curry poured straight through the weak plastic container, all over my partner’s lap, burning her and destroying the interior of my £50k car.

Not only did they not apologise or offer to replace the food—they didn’t even pretend to care.

When I rang the restaurant to complain, the guy on the phone had the nerve to start shouting at me, acting like it was somehow my fault, refusing to take any responsibility. His arrogance and attitude were unbelievable. I had to hang up before I lost it completely.

Now I'm out the cost of a full valet, my partner’s dealing with burns, and we were left without dinner—all because they couldn’t be bothered to spend a few extra pence on proper packaging.

It’s a real shame, because I actually liked their food. But after this? I’ll never order from them again, and I’ll make sure no one I know does either.

Oh—and if the guy I spoke to is reading this: here’s a photo for you. If it’s really “my fault,” maybe you can explain how the bottom of the bag split wide open, soaked through and leaking...

Ordered our take away using the online booking page and found very easy so surprised after picking up order and getting home to find 1 curry missing from order. Called restaurant immediately to be told I had only ordered 2 curries!! Once I explained I had the receipt proof of order was offered a curry “next time” which as being here on holiday was turned down and asked to honour the missing curry. A 10 minute drive later not an apology or partial refund offer just a container of curry, once home disappointed to find 7 pieces of Chicken in a very watery Tikka sauce which went in the bin along with the partial eaten remains of the other meals. We chose this restaurant in a sea of curry restaurants in the area as the reviews are very good so very disappointed that we have been let down and left finding another restaurant to order from and £33 out of pocket literally leaving a bad taste all round. This may be an isolated incident but the lack of apology and poor food means only 1...
