Our first visit here and not impressed. The older waiter was very rude and never smiled once. I liked the decor and the food was average.

Very disappointing. Confusion over our table when we arrived and then Took almost an hour from ordering our food to getting it. The breads were good but other dishes just so so. The butter chicken was way too sweet.Would not return.

Hello family friends travellers and followers of my reviews Barry here again sharing with you an excellent place I have been to eat out at and this one the Echt tandoori isn't just excellent it's absolutely wonderful the best I've ever been to in all my travelling days let's pop inside! Set in the wee idyllic village of Echt lies the tandoori a lovely old building with lots of parking and access for disabled folks, upon entering your eyes will be dazzled with the beautifully set tables crisp decor and the sheer spotlessness of the place there's lots of room and it looks wonderful! Next you will be shown to your table by one of the staff owned by Jony Sharif a truly great guy his staff are so so friendly and warm our table was set and were given our menus let's eat! To say the menu is fantastic is an understatement there's so much choice things old and new all cooked in a Bangladeshi Indian fusion style there is something for everyone vegetarians and vegans included we perused the great menu and my guest and I opted for the king prawn puri as our starter I chose tandoori king prawns with a Balti and a masala sauce with chapattis my guest going for the chilli and garlic king prawns with pilau rice we were hungry and waited for our food to arrive the starters came and wow beautiful is the word I'll use the thinest Puri melt in the mouth filled with the juiciest king prawns I've ever tasted nb at the Echt they used Bengal prawns which are the most flavoursome and cost more most tandooris use the cheaper ones not here! And the price so reasonable 17.99 which is a bargain the prawns were in a lovely creamy spicy sauce that just oozed with flavour and it looked so nice on the plate it comes with a ramikin of lovely garlic yoghurt sauce delicious we were very pleased onto the mains and readers wow wow wow my king prawns came sizzling to our table beautiful big juicy ones perfectly cooked with onions and peppers aside the sauces off the scale a gorgeous Balti sauce with fresh veg bit of sauce and a lovely masala sauce touch of spice and so very smooth just phenomenal cooking as I said best I have tasted! Bar none and I mean UK wide my friends garlic chilli prawn dish was also to die for big garlic and chilli flavours with the most sumptuous sauce five star the chappatis the rice all to the highest standard tasty to the last bite we ate everything that was served and sat back and chatted about our meal. These are just words I urge you folks to head here and try for yourself but this is seriously excellent cooking flavours that tickle your taste buds staff that make you smile ambience that make it perfect if your in the area don't go to any of the other tandooris on offer no offence but if you want a true Bangladeshi Indian taste experience this is the place to be food of the very highest quality and standard were going next week again thankyou Jony and all the team for a memorable night ?? and love Barry thanks for reading travellers enjoy!Vegetarian options: Plenty for our vege friends dishes with real flavour and depth great!Dietary restrictions: All allergys catered for no worrys at allParking: Right next to the place safe as housesKid-friendliness: Little ones ha well behaved little ones are welcomed hugely at the Echt kids desserts look greatWheelchair accessibility: No worrys if your disabled you will be assisted into the restaurant

Food was good but aside from the waitress, the other two waiters' behaviour was strange and rude. They were condescending and rushing us.

Take away for July self and friends, I had Chicken Tika Massala and although chicken tasty enough it was swimming in a fluorescent orange soup, and my wife?s was no better. Expect some texture from curry sauce and this was sadly lacking.

Food was good. They have such a good reputation that maybe my expectations were higher. Quite a long wait between starter and main course - our table was booked for 6pm and received main course at 7:20pm.The restaurant can be quite noisy due to the space.Staff were attentive enough but you didn't have one server so you were often asked by several different members of staff for drinks/if everything was okay which interrupted the meal quite a lot.When we left, we put £20 as a tip (more than 10%) as none of us had anything smaller. One of the waiters was very quick to pick this up from the table with another then coming over to tell us they needed the table as he tapped his watch.I understand they are busy but we weren't given a time limit in which to leave the table and given that we had not long had our main meals delivered felt a bit rushed. My mum still had half a glass of wine. Had we decided to take dessert what would have happened then?A very disappointing end to the evening that I have shared with friends and family. I think they are relying a bit too much on their reputation and forgetting customer service. I felt very rushed to get our coats on and leave.

Really good meal out in Echt, nice modern decor, excellent service. Lamb was good - not chewy, fell apart in a good way. Chicken was moist. Sauces were great, just all good really. Obviously a wee bit of town (Aberdeen) but not far really & worthwhile trip. Plenty parking & easy to find.
