Blue Elephant Indian Restaurant — Restaurant in England

Probably the worst restaurant service staff ever.

We were a group of 8 people and they initially refused to accommodate us. They asked us to order only once and didn't even bother giving us water. The Indian waiter asked us to go to another restaurant if we wanted to order more than once. Both waiters were rude and their body language indicated that they didn't care. The waiters mentioned that their cook is too busy and would not take any extra order.

I had to ask for water thrice following which they actually took the effort to pour each of us a glass of water. Personally, we believe the Indian waiter was racist. He refused to give us decent service while providing adequate service to other guests in the restaurant. They asked 3 of us to get up from our chairs so that the waiter could take the food cart to the other side of the room. Again, pathetic service all around.

Food is bang on average. Not at all worth the misery of the woeful hospitality.

This restaurant is the perfect example of how a restaurant should not be run. We're thoroughly disappointed. I hope to never come here again and would advise everyone reading this review to stay away from this restaurant...

Well, let’s just say, the boss got angry with some people inside the store. He clearly wasn’t having a good day. He made the portions smaller, he walked up and down, forced a group to change tables and made a woman run to bathroom crying. If that wasn’t enough, he didn’t even want to serve drinks until everyone came. I am not sure if this experience is bizarre or against every standard on the planet. But from my observation, and seeing the boss prance around up and down, picking things up off the table and putting them down, it makes me think that he has some serious personal issues. I went there a few months ago and fives times last year, and it was actually pretty alright. But this experience would be worth a court case. There is no reason for a boss to act like that, oh and be abusive to a female who wasn’t sure what to order. We live in a #MeToo society. If there are other people who experienced this abuse, please...

Absolutely stunned with the treatment from staff. So we arrived in a group of 4 on 15th August. The gentleman at counter pointed us to some empty tables and asked us to take any. Very well. We continued towards the table and the gentleman at the counter then looked visibly annoyed by our presence there. He followed us and in a borderline angry tone asked us to take a seat ( meaning please leave). We started leaving at such a resentful behaviour and asked him why was he irritated with us and got an answer "because I don't like you guys".We didn't engage in any further conversation as that would have spoilt our night as we were out celebrating my birthday. We just left but this was a shocking experience without a doubt our worst in UK. Id probably compromise with the food but we go to a Restaurant for a fine dine to be shared with the experience. So...
