We didnt have a booking but was seated straight away which was great. Started with poppadoms which were accompanied with the usual dips as well as a coconut flavour dip which I have never had before and that was sweet, very nice.Then for main went for the lamb jalfrezi, nice and spicy but not over the top. And one of the Ashoka specialty dishes called colckotta chicken which was also spicy, but the flavour was incredible.I would absolutely return to this restaurant and I plan to do so very soon. Will take pics next time as I forgot to do that this time.

Great food and service, food came out really fast even though they were very busy, shout out to Khan our waiter who made the night extra special

Lovely people great fresh food recommend

The butter chicken was way too sweet. But the chicken wings were alright.

Ordered takeaway 20-30min collected and was really nice. Lamb momo, chicken pakora (ask for it). Ashoka biryani was yum, we ate too much it was that good! Edit: 21Jan2022, we decided to sit in and it was sooo good, great service. The food is tastes great served fresh, you must. You just must come and dine in.!

Have had plenty of take aways from here and food has always been good and reasonably priced. Have never eaten in the restaurant itself so cant comment on the service etc however whenever i have picked up the takeaway the staff have always been friendly and polite.

Great tasting freshly cooked on site food. Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable about the regions each dish comes from.And best of all its not expensive to eat here.Highly recommend Ashoka

The food is great, but everytime I give them another chance to prepare food for collection/delivery in the estimated time I'm disappointed again. Been waiting 90 mins so far for a 45 minute estimated time frame. Told it was on its way 20 mins ago (I only live in Hoddesdon).EDIT (110 mins later): Originally gave 3 stars. Upon calling and being shouted at down the phone whilst personally being polite I'm appalled! Terrible customer service to an honest (2nd) chase up.

We already have a favourite Indian restaurant we’ve been going to for years and years and were reluctant to try something new but we were really surprised.The restaurant inside was nicely decorated. I liked the atmosphere, menus and that the cutlery came in its own little envelope. The tables and seats in the booths are very comfortable.Service wasn’t poor but wasn’t exceptional either. We were surprised about how busy they were on a Tuesday night.Starters were delicious and the quality and portion size of the mains was very good. Chicken was really tender and dishes were really tasty.The only reasons I wouldn’t give this Indian 5 starts is because one of the plates were dirty and a bowl had 2 chips around the rim. Also, there was an inedible cracker on the mains which seemed VERY out of date.The only deserts they have available is sorbet/ice crème, whereas I would have liked to see a little more variety. We were offered a drink on the house after our meal which was nice.They were taking part in the “Eat Out to Help Out” and we had £20 off our meal which was nice. It’s generally quiet expensive compared to our favourite Indian but we would visit again.There was hand sanitiser available but they could do a little better with spacing people out.

Come out for a nice Indian and got very bland starters, uncooked chapatis and over cooked tandoori roti. As a Indian eating here we was as a family very disappointed. Mains were not very special either. Bombay potatoes tasted microwaved warm.
