Not special. They were so busy Friday night there were loads of cooks working.
I heard such good things about the place I gave it a second try but I was very disappointed that the chicken tasted old and there was food dye in the rice. The starter I had was dry. I have a bad aftertaste in my mouth now. I hope the food was stored properly.
The curry dishes did have a little flavour and were spicy at least but I definitely won't be going back. Very quick delivery but that isn't a priority for me.

can't fault the dishes ever, shame about the customer service. when you've waited an hour and a half and politely call to ask if there's a problem you'd expect them to at least ask your address or what you ordered. "it's already left" then they hang up the phone ?? as has my custom mate

The reviews have a huge influence in the decisions of others when dining out or having food delivered. This take away won Wales?s coveted award this year for the nations best take away! Whereas online, some reviews are very negative. A famous search engine gives more favourable reviews.
Time to see for myself then. Bangladeshi food is my favourite food. I?ve eaten in dozens of restaurants around the country and had hundreds of take aways the last forty years. I ordered the Mughlai Pulao rice, Nagga lamb and two popadoms with mango chutney. It was delivered in under 45 minutes so no problem there.
The Mughlai Pulao consisted of small pieces of tandoori chicken cooked using rice and ground spices, this one is a lip-smacking therapy for your appetite. I usually always opt for lamb over chicken and fluctuate between spicy and very spicy. Tonight I ordered the latter. The nagga sauce was rich, good texture and very tasty. A little mild compared to others I?ve had and too many onions also.
You could almost be forgiven if you thought you were eating a spicy Jalfrezi. The portions were very generous and enough for two. What let the curry down was the lamb. It wasn?t succulent enough. You really had to cut through it with a serrated knife. It should be tender melt in the mouth as apposed to well done and require effort.

We regularly get takeaway from Royal Balti (pickup and delivery). We have our favourite meals and tend not to deviate, but that?s because they?re so tasty!
Unfortunately, there has been a couple times where a vegetarian dish has been mixed up with a meat option, which has rendered us without an edible meal - however we have continued to return as customers because the curry is that good.
Mostly, the curry is fantastic and pretty quick. Money wise, it is quite good value. The naan bread is always nice too.
We hope it will continue being a reliable choice as they are transitioning to exclusively being on Uber Eats, and we haven?t been impressed by Uber Eats through different restaurants. We shall see!

One of the best curry houses in Wales and definitely the best in Barry by a long shot. The food is always on point and I've never had a bad meal or bad service.If I was to give one criticism it would be that the keema nan doesn't have enough meat in it as I would like but I still have to give 5/5

We always order from here. Delicious curries all the time. Service is never late and always on time or early.
Today we placed a small order that included a bag of chips. These weren't in the bag when we started to dish out the food. Thankfully it was just a bag of chips and not a main curry or rice dish. Could i suggest better quality checks before the orders are sent out for delivery. We could have phoned up to let them know the chips were missing but by the time they would have arrived the rest of the food would have been cold. Other than that the food was great as always!

Huge Disappointment! Heard about this being an award winning takeaway so thought we?d give it a go. Despite this business being only 4 mins away, food arrived barely lukewarm, Bhaji was soft not crispy, makhani curry was an unnatural colour with some rubbery chicken, pilau rice had ?nuclear? colour red & green bits in it with a chemical perfume type of taste rather than the normal gorgeous aromatic flavours & naan bread was soggy. The sheek kebab had a lovely flavour as did the curry sauce. Sadly a pretty poor 1st experience.

Food wasn't great. Chicken Bhuna and Korahi sauce both extremely bland.

I ordered onion bargee, popadoms, mushroom rice, lamb madras. Bombay potatoes, keema nan. My meal was delicious and very good size portions. The lamb was so tender. Highly recommend. Thanks royalty balti
