Sanderstead Tandoori in Croydon

We had a fantastic time at this small friendly curry restaurant, service excellent and food delicious, lovely evening and meal with our granddaughters, daughter and son in law to be.

We had a lovely family meal, 6 of us including our grandchildren, great location would highly recommend and certainly intend to return.

Where do I start?1) The food itself is not authentic. The korma seems like it comes out of a bottle and a particularly low quality bottle as well. It’s both bland and lacks real spices… it’s just all food colouring. This is not Indian food.2) The meat is CLEARLY cooked hours ago and allowed to dry out. The meat is chewy, dry, and tasteless. How hard is it to cook a piece of meat?3) The naan bread is literally the worst I’ve ever had. They definitely don’t make it in house and the worst part is that they have keema on their menu and it’s not even keema. It’s a proper disgrace.I’m not sure how they can pass this off as Indian food and have good reviews. They wouldn’t survive in central London.

Great to visit our local and highly dependable local restaurant again. Exceptionally friendly service and great food. Our first night out since lockdown.Update: The quality of recent takeaways has been sub-standard, something has changed with the usual consistently good quality meals.

Lovely dinner this evening at Sanderstead Tandoori. Lots of choice on the menu, starters were brilliant, and everything was cooked to perfection. The final bill was also very reasonable - we'll definitely be back!

Nice meal in a quiet warm setting. Food was delicious, only given 4 stars because only been once. If food good again on return, will increase to 5.

Wonderful ambience so well presented. Fantastic menu with so much choice. Vegetarian & pescitarian easily accommodated. Vegan options available with oil replacing ghee.Such welcoming friendly staff a real credit to the establishment.Masks worn and had sanitiser provided.Thank you all so much.

GLASS FOUND IN FOOD!I tried to be reasonable with this restaurant and after a conversation with the owner I felt that I was being taken seriously. The owner was supposed to bring round a refund personally as we paid cash. After chasing twice now I haven’t had any response and have had to resort to letting the public know the situation. I have loved the food from here for years but after finding glass in the food which resulted in me cutting my mouth and the restaurant not returning calls it’s left a really sour taste. The owner has tried to say they have no glass in the kitchen. Either way, it it their responsibility to take this matter very seriously.

Sanderstead tandoori. Great place, all ways on time. No delays. Best Indian n Bengali cuisine around Croydon. If you haven't order from here then please do so. You won't regret it. Five star from me.👍🤩

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Sanderstead Tandoori today! loved their plates! We could not fault either the food nor the service. The staff were very friendly and extremely helpful, the food was excellent and tailored to cater all of our needs and whims! The atmosphere was very enjoyable and no one looked twice at our 3 noisy children! We will most definitely be back again soon and will be recommending to all of our local friends and family 5* experience, thank you 😊
