Best KPortal Reviews

Best takeaway Indian food I've had for a long time. Great staff, friendly service, very limited parking nearby but will deliver. Excellent menu, not the cheapest but great value (meal for 2 £25) that included 2 poppadoms, mixed starter, 2 mains & a side, rice & nan. Will definitely return.
Being from a family that has curries pretty frequently, we were blown away when we found a takeaway that is able to produce authentic Indian food consistently.
The food tastes delicious and always arrives very promptly. The staff have always been helpful both when ordering on the phone and when picking up a collection order.
Cannot recommend them enough!
Ordered from here three or four times now and I really enjoy their food. Can be a little oversalted in parts but some of the veg dishes like the veg pathia are excellent. Some very pleasant tandoori dishes too. Promptly delivered and reasonably good value. Recommend!
We always use the Clay oven when having an Indian takeaway and the food has always been fantastic, they're very friendly and their food is impeccable!
Dreadful experience!! Ordered an India said the waiting time would be 1 hour which is fair enough due to being a Friday night however arrived within 15 minutes which is concerning. Opened up my chicken korma to which is was cold.. the next was the king prawn dopiaza which had 5 tiny prawns and the rest were big Chunks of onion and pepper so really should have been called a vegetable curry. I then called up to be greeted with a rather rude lady who couldn’t quite understand why my dinner had been cold. No sorry nothing!!! Have used you guys so many times and my number 1 curry house in FOLKESTONE. That’s the last time.
After what I have seen tonight on TV we need to support these local hero’s. Next time I am n Folkestone we will pop by. Well done !!
We regularly have a Indian takeaway. We either use The Clay Oven or Prince of India. Last night we had a awful experience with The Clay Oven.
We ordered as soon as they opened 5.30. I was a little surprised when told it would be an hour. In fact it was over an hour and a half at ten past 7, I did phone and ask at 6.45 only we had a family zoom meeting planned at 7.30. I was told "we got busy" by that I think they meant they had "Just Eat" orders and put the regulars on hold.
When it did turn up there was a item missing and the food to be honest wasn't their normal standard. When I told them I was told we will give you a refund for the item missing.
It disappoints me we were treated like this as we have used them since they opened and the owners live on our close so we are neighbours.
We're not sure if we will go back. Mainly due to their attitude, not once did they say "Sorry"
Has anyone else found their standards slipping?
Our last two orders have been wrong - rice missing one week, then a plain nan and paratha when we'd ordered (and paid for) them stuffed.
The food is usually very good, but it does vary.
