It was my father's 60th birthday and we decided to find restaurant and the Red fort came up from recommendations from a few people and I was like I'll check the reviews. So I tried to refuse and their only four reviews pertaining the dining experience out of 80 reviews.So I decided to take us to there. He is our experience.As we made our way to our table, I couldn't help but notice the abundance of plates scattered across the tables, seemingly for display purposes. These plates were never utilized during our meal and appeared to serve solely as decorative items, intended to create a restaurant-like atmosphere. However, their presence only added to the awkwardness of the dining experience, as they were awkwardly pushed aside when plates came from the kitchen.The lack of waiting staff further contributed to an overall sense of disarray, with only one person, possibly the owner, manning the counter and attempting to handle both cashier duties and waiting tables. However, it was evident that he may not have had much experience in waiting tables, which led to an awkward and somewhat unprofessional dining experience.The seating, while functional, left much to be desired. The chairs, seemingly untouched since the restaurant's inception, were uncomfortably hard, making for an unpleasant dining experience. Additionally, the lighting was either excessively harsh or inadequate, contributing to a lackluster ambiance.Despite these shortcomings, the food at The Red Fort exceeded expectations. As one would anticipate from a takeaway restaurant, the dishes were flavorful and satisfying. However, it's worth noting that the dining atmosphere felt somewhat soulless, with barely audible music failing to create a welcoming ambiance.A noteworthy aspect of the dining experience was the beverage service. Drinks were served in cans, as the restaurant lacked any beverage dispensing machines. While this approach may have contributed to the overall sense of awkwardness, it is understandable given the restaurant's focus on takeaway service.In light of these observations, I would recommend The Red Fort consider updating its decor to address the outdated elements and enhance the overall dining experience. Alternatively, I would suggest that the restaurant fully embrace its strengths in takeaway service and consider abandoning the dine-in experience altogether.The impact of COVID-19 on The Red Fort cannot be overlooked. Like many establishments, the restaurant struggled to adapt to the challenges posed by the pandemic. With the rise of delivery apps such as Just Eat, Deliveroo, and Uber Eats, many restaurants, including The Red Fort, shifted their focus to takeaway service. While this transition may have helped the restaurant survive during difficult times, it has undoubtedly changed the dynamic of the dining experience.In conclusion, while The Red Fort may excel in its takeaway offerings, the dining experience leaves much to be desired. For those seeking a memorable dining experience, I would recommend exploring other options in the area. However, if you're simply craving delicious Indian cuisine to enjoy at home, The Red Fort is certainly worth considering."

Previously had numerous currys from red fort and were all very nice. Tonight I ordered a curry for me and my partner at 7 pm exactly, did not receive this until 9 30 pm, shocking!!! If that wasn't bad enough I received the wrong curry for my partner. Called to mention this and hardly understood a word of English from the apparent boss. Finally near the drawn out conversation that I tried to tune into I was told that they would deliver my partners curry low and behold I got it at 10.22 pm

I don't give negative feedback lightly and have been a satisfied customer of the Red Fort for 20+ years.. However, a delivery time of 2 hours 5 minutes is simply not acceptable. If you can't accommodate an order within a reasonable time frame then don't accept it. Very disappointing.

Been using Red Fort for over 20 years and always has been excellent, but recently they have been getting my order wrong everytime. 4 times in a row now they have missed an item or missed half of the order. Now waiting another hour on top of the hour and a half I?ve already waited for my original order to come. Just disappointed they used to get my order right everytime.

Got carry out last night was very poor, Pakora must have been reheated a few times before we got it, Ckicken tandoori was burnt black and very dry. Chasni sauce was very watery and tasteless, all in all very disappointing. Won't be using again.
