Masala Gate Indian Takeaway in Canterbury

Awful. The food came late, which I could forgive. But it has that horrible sugary taste that you sometimes get with downmarket Indian food and isnt spicy at all. Feels like im eating a desert. Really disappointing

Nice takeaway, had the Lamb Dansak which was very good. Decent value for money.

Ordered on Deliveroo and it eventually arrived cold and 2 hours late, after being lied to over the phone several times as to when I could expect my order. Do not trust this takeaway. Food was poor when it eventually arrived too!

Placed an order at 5.15pm to be delivered at 8.45pm now 10.30pm still waiting said they are too busy to give my order still !!

Ordered take away from Masala gate via Deliveroo for the first time. Their delivery was very fast, which was good. However, they forgot the basmati rice, which I had to phone to get them to deliver, to their credit they sent the rice very quickly. The chicken samosas were fantastic and the garlic naan was also good. Their Pilau Basmati rice was cooked very well and very tasty. So why only two stars. For the curry I ordered a Butter Chicken Tikka, which is one of my favorites and usually the curry of choice I make at home. Butter Chicken Tikka Masala is a mild dish, made with either cream or yogurt. While it's not suppose to be spicy hot, there should usually be the distinctive flavours of traditional Indian cumin, tumeric, garam masala, etc. Unfortunately, Masala gates curry was so overwhelming sweet, these flavours are completely lost. When I say sweet, I mean desert levels of sweet, like they've added sugar, syrup to the curry sauce. It really takes you back, when you eat what is technically suppose to be a mild, mostly savoury, curry and can't taste any spices. Sure, the cream should add a degree of sweetness, but honestly the dish is closer to a bizarre curry style dessert. Overall very disappointed, as the sweetness, or the degree of sweetness, completely ruined the dish for me. I'm sure there are people who will enjoy this, but out of all the butter chicken tika masala curries I've had at many Indian restaurants throughout the UK, this is certainly the oddest.

Amazing place!! Their bread was most delicious bread I've ever eaten.. Like crisps bread.. Can't remember its name.. Defo, you should go..I assume their products are halal as well.. Couldn't see the license but researched their suppliers.. Would be better having halal certificate to show the Muslim clients who came from outside..

Was utterly disappointed with our food, had to heat it up to attempt to make it edible. Will definitely not go there again, first and last time. Don't waste your money.

Superb. Love the huge range for vegetarians. Try the veg rogan: fragrant and tasty. Must mention the exceptional onion bhajis (onion-packed, delicate, beautifully fried balls of deliciousness) and the fantastic naan. Our first order, and this is our new regular Indian t/a. And service brilliant too. Great Canterbury restaurant. Thank you for our lovely supper!

Probably the worst curry we've ever ordered. The vegan korma, more expensive as it was in the 'special' menu, was basically coconut milk and potatoes. The saag aloo was bland and the aubergine bhaji just tasted of salt, and to top it off we received chicken samosas instead of vegetable samosas. When we phoned to complain they offered free samosas with our next order. Needless to say we won't be ordering again.

Third time I’ve had food from masala gate now and every time it’s been spectacular. Always arrives piping hot, amazing flavours and they cater for vegan and gluten free! Definitely a must try if you haven’t already.
