Tonight, my partner and I had the pleasure of dining at Red Peppers Indian, and it was a delightful surprise that we happened upon Buffet Night. Our experience was nothing short of spectacular, creating a memory we will cherish and prompting us to mark our calendars for a return visit.
The buffet was a showcase of the best of Indian cuisine, offering a variety of dishes that catered to every taste. Among the stars of the evening were our choices: I indulged in the Chicken Balti, which was a perfect symphony of flavours. The chicken was tender, and the sauce was rich and tangy, with just the right amount of spice to tantalise the palate without overwhelming it.
My partner opted for the Rogan Josh lamb, a dish that proved to be a masterpiece of cooking. The lamb was cooked to perfection, soft and succulent, enveloped in a rich, aromatic sauce that spoke volumes of the chef's mastery in blending spices.
The ambiance of Red Peppers Indian added to the magic of the evening, with its warm, inviting atmosphere making us feel right at home. The service was exceptional; the staff went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was memorable. They were attentive, offering recommendations that were spot on, enhancing our culinary adventure.
In conclusion, our visit to Red Peppers Indian was an outstanding dining experience. The food, especially the Chicken Balti and Rogan Josh lamb, was delicious and expertly prepared. Coupled with the warm ambiance and the stellar service, it's clear that this restaurant is a gem that shines brightly in the culinary world. We left with satisfied appetites and a promise to ourselves to return soon. For anyone looking to savour the rich and diverse flavors of Indian cuisine, Red Peppers Indian is...
Read moreFirstly, I want to say, the company and management that occupied this building since I was a child had the most amazing reputation and was I wrong to believe that this would carry. Do not use their website, prices are wrong, they accused their website of being cloned even though nothing is stated on their 'actual' website not to use it. So there are two websites, make sure you use the right one otherwise you may have wasted your money. Then after calling and caculating the prices from their website which we was directed to, the prices were still inaccurate and came to more even after the 15% off collection. The manager did honour the price of the website so hopefully they will now update the prices. All of this would have been acceptable, IF the food was nice. I don't know after reading reviews if it's better in-house but we had four curry dishes, and all of them were not very nice. The sides were also burnt. The Vindaloo, although meant to be a spicy curry, had no flavour and was extremely spicy. Caution, you may get blisters from the extreme spice and flavourless dish. I will not be returning and if I were you, I would wait until Mr India is reopened or go to one of the other places in Newbury. I will be making a complaint for misinterpretation and scamming on their behalf also for the website error as this will cause issue especially in the current social climate. Thank you for wasting £60....
Read moreAbsolutely Disastrous!
Red Peppers is an absolute disgrace to Indian cuisine. Last night's takeaway was the worst Indian food I've ever had the misfortune to consume. The chicken was so dry it resembled cardboard, and the complete disregard for my specific instructions is nothing short of incompetence. Finding vegetables in my egg rice is an insult, and sultanas in a Chicken Tikka Korma? Are you serious? The garlic naan was like eating a stale cracker. It was hard, dry, and completely devoid of any flavor or texture. I am appalled at the quality ofthis food and even more disappointed in the complete lack of care taken with my order. I would strongly advise anyone considering ordering from Red Peppers to think twice, or even three times. Save your money and your taste buds, and order from somewhere that actually knows how to cook...
