Fairwater Balti

Food was cold when it finally arrived!

Food mediocre but their delivery man was rude and intimidating. It was very upsetting. Update: After I rang the shop about the encounter, the delivery man sent me an abusive text, which has left me truly shaken. I rang to order a simple takeaway and have become involved with someone I regard as a threat. I don’t know what to think or what to do at the moment - I feel so affected by it I am afraid to be in the house on my own.

It's a take away only but I think it's best madras in cardiff &,I've tried more than 20places lovely big chunks of chicken innit lovely

Great food, big portions and reasonably priced. Always impressed with this place, has never failed.

I preordered before the restaurant opened at about 5:20 pm. Despite leaving a few messages asking where the food was and being told it was en-route the food finally arrived at 8:00 pm. This is not acceptable and is not the first time that delivery has been so bad. No apology just told they were busy. Lovely food always good food but a three hour wait for cold food means I won’t order from here again: our large Christmas party will be looking for an alternative option.

Excellent food and service.

Ordered food on Halloween night, food was really delicious! Really fast with delivery! Big Thankyou and much respect to the delivery driver who brought back my fiver which I accidentally over paid without noticing “IN THE BEATING DOWN RAIN” aswell!! Thanks again mate! Amazing place!

Waited an hour and delivery still not arrived. Called the restaurant to ask what’s happening and he said it will be another 45 minutes. Told him that’s disgusting and he said “I’m not even listening to your complaints I’ll just cancel your order”… he cut the call off and cancelled my order refusing to give a refund! Worst experience I have ever had with a takeaway… highly recommend avoiding this place!

First time I’ve been to this Indian in Fairwater I was shocked to see rating one on the door. I had second thoughts decide to buy a curry. One of the staff was cutting onions one dropped on the floor up and start cutting it. I confronted this they denied it and said he went into a pot which was on the floor, Shortly after that, I never chef come out very rude and mouth off I was struck by this attitude. Then they were arguing amongst them selves, as one guy was in the wrong, and the other guy is trying to calm down with the attitude of the chef. Curry was watery and disgusting won’t be going out again lesson learned rating one star on the door. Parking: A bit tight to park in a cul-de-sac instead of on the main road.

This is my go-to, favourite Indian takeaway without a doubt, in Cardiff. This is an old school Indian take-away, with food cooked in a particular, classic way I just love. The food is consistently tasty, and very well seasoned. Service is friendly and efficient. I find they combine spices and other 'core' ingredients with a good degree of culinary skill and balance. The textures of the meat and veg included in a given dish work well together. I like the subtle hints of cardamon, cinnamon and even honey in many of their special dishes. All the ingredients are fresh, and of a very good quality. A great traditional Indian takeaway. I highly recommend this place. Many thanks to Asim, Haroon and all the staff at Fairwater Tandoori, for your dishes you make for me most weekends!
