Been eating at Belfoi since it opened and before at Elaichi since I was a teenager, but unfortunately this is my final time after a disappointing takeaway which could not be rectified as requested by a refund. We live around 20 minutes which would be the same as a delivery but working long hours I just wanted to sit with the family and eat a meal together. We took our food out and it was dry, chewy, and un-edible tried some but had to spit it out. Worst we’ve ever had from either establishments, so I call up to explain the food and if a refund when I’m back towards town would be viable as £57 worth of food is a lot if your not going to eat and drive back after being awake for 15 hours. A young lad told be someone would call back and they did, but said I would have to drive back to have it recooked, or a voucher as they won’t do a refund. For nearly 20 years and never asked for my full money back (maybe an masala if it wasn’t great) and I’m refused as apparently some people like ‘chewy’ food and some people. If I was there I would have as they would have no choice for a refund, but if you have a takeaway that’s not an option if you don’t want to eat there again. Disappointment is how I’m feeling and I’ve learnt never to rely on your local Indian you’ve been going to for a long time over two establishments. My first poor food review and hopefully my last. Be cautious folks, not all the you think when a problem arises and you want to your money back. Disappointed Hussain,...
Read moreFound the atmosphere cosy, comfortable with authentic decor. Staff were polite but no smiles and the service for the buffet lunch was the bare minimum. Merely, 'you can grab a plate and help yourself'. I would've expected an enquiry whether we've been before and told where the mains were, that there were sauces etc in certain places. So that was a bit unhelpful.
The food was tasty enough but not the best curries I've had. Like an average takeaway but twice the price. Most were spicy hot so I was limited to only a couple of choices. I think labelling for heat would be helpful. The prawn dhansak was so hot and it looked very mild. The naan was really nice at least.
Everything was just okay. We enjoyed our meals ok but I won't bother returning. Overall I somewhat recommend it for a group meal but not for a couple. And if you're not fussed about what makes for...
Read moreOne of the best curries I have ever had, and I regard myself as a curry connoisseur!!! The staff are so friendly and kind. We have had two takeaways now, and each time our daughter has been given a lollipop which she loves. We are also vegetarians and there are no problems in accommodating us by making any of the dishes vegetarian (even though there are a wide range of vegetarian options on the menu). I am also a hot head, so my veg phall was awesome, a proper phall hot dish!! They even made a garlic chillie massalla as a veg dish, and raising the heat to vindaloo hot, which again was spot on. Awesome food, happy to tailor things, and very friendly, genuine service. Despite living near Llandeilo we'll try as much as possible to buy our curries from here again. Diolch...
