Ripon, United Kingdom Indian takeaway

Frequently mentioned in reviews: Top-rated.online cuts through the clutter, highlighting only the reviews that are most helpful, earn the most likes, or come from the most active contributors. Desperately trying to find a Indian in Harrogate, and tried Aakash after amazing reviews in Just Eat, only to be a little disappointed. When ordering, Just Eat told us the food would be ready for 5:55. At around 5:40, we were notified it was ready and we hadn't even set off yet. I did ring them and ask to keep it warm as we had issues with our front door not locking, and the man in the phone WAS super and said he'd keep it in a heat bag for us which was nice, and the food was still warm when we eventually got home around 6:15. Now, the starters. I ordered a tikka and my boyfriend got onion bhajis. I was aware that the starters came on "a bed of onion", but it was way too much. My was dry once put on my plate and tasted too much of onion and not enough tikka. My partner didn't like how fried his bhajis were and we both said we wouldn't get the same starters if we order online again. The mains were okay. The curry portions were quite small, I barely had enough sauce leftover for the next day (I always eat half and save half for the next day). The containers were small and there was too much in my korma (odd complaint, I know, but I like a lot of sauce to drown my rice.), might just get korma sauce next time. My partner enjoyed his madras and he said it was very spicy which is what he wanted, but his tummy wasn't the best the next day, and he handles spicy food quite well, normally. Finally found a which has actual pilau rice with herbs and spices which was a surprise! I enjoyed that quite a lot, made it feel more authentic as opposed to white rice with colourful red green and yellow dyed pieces. The boiled rice was and reheated well the next day. The naans are big! We could have definitely just got the one to share. The was subtle but strong enough. My partner said he couldn't taste the garlic, but I could, but I had a more "middle" piece. Overall, it was nice, however, I wouldn't order again. It was around £41 for just the two of us, which is the most expensive we've had (normally no more than £35 from elsewhere), and it was almost worth it. We'll deffo save next time as we'll just be getting the 1 naan and maybe not starters. 1st visit curry tasted very powdery ,so too much in the dish! Spoilt it as too overpowering as though not cooked through and only form of flavouring , chips were okay had to throw half way through so disappointed Ordered a mixed kebab, Lamb doner and doner, received lamb doner and normal with hard bits in it... They took like 10 minutes and the guy serving the food licked his finger every time he put an item into a bag , not to mention rubbing his head. This wouldn't be an issue until a couple of hours later when my bottom let go and this is the only food I've had... Shame as the reviews got my hopes up.. Maybe there's a better kebab house in town. Edit, an hour after going to bed I actually soiled myself, sober so it's not that and I can smell the onions and kebab. Only wasted a pair of boxers as I caught it in time. Second time this has ever happened from a dodgy kebab place.. Please avoid. Friendly staff, great menu choices and at good prices. Well worth getting a from here. Had a fantastic from Aakash on Tuesday night, especially the balti and & cheese naan which were amazing! Good portion sizes with the curries having loads of chicken! Would definitely recommend! Beautiful food. Fresh ingredients and produce provided to entail and absolute sensational taste. Mouth watering burst of flavour Everything was terrible, the cashier was intimidating. I have had lots of donners and chips and this was the worst so far, nothing had any flavor, all the hot food was melted into the plastic containers, the "large dips" where no more than 10ml or sauce which is crazy and where 1 pound. I am never eating here again please don't get there donner. GOATs of the Harrogate and Knaresborough seen. 10/10. love you Aakash x Great food, I order pretty regularly and I have never had a bad meal. Delivery is always accurate and the drivers are friendly. korma, rice and chapati Chicken fillet burger, chips were lovely Only thing was n sweetcorn pizza.. Too spicy for partner as thought it was plain not spicy chicken. So bit of a waste.
