Shama's Indian restaurant had been a regular haunt for locals on this site for many decades - I always remember it for the diamond shaped menu on the wall with the wonky writing! Cheap and cheerful Indian dining would sum up its food. Khan's took over this site last year and the decor is certainly much more contemporary and they've added the ability to open out the front of the restaurant on nice days. It has a sister restaurant in Lavender Hill, London. My friend and I were sad to see an institution like Shama's go after so many years but we were excited to try this new place. The menu is more conventional than somewhere like Cinnamon Spice in town. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the new decor and we found the flavours a bit bland and the dishes didn't really stand out from one another. That's a real shame as the staff were really nice and we were offered a complimentary liqueur at the end of our meal. Sadly, first impressions count and I can't see myself returning here in a hurry, not with Cinnamon Spice down the road.

Tamarind Spice occupies the site of the much-loved White Castle Indian restaurant in Ewell. The refurbishment has left the new restaurant with a modern look with split level dining and purple mood uplighting This modern touch extends to the ordering with the waiter using a futuristic touch screen portable device. My mango lassi and popaddom were a good standard and should be the basic minimum for any decent Indian restaurant. It's the condiments which make the popaddom experience and the ones here did the trick. I started with king prawn puree. The puree wasn't perhaps straight out of the fryer, being a little chewy rather than totally light and crispy. However, the king prawns on top were great, not overcooked and having a nice blend of herbs and spices for a kick. There were quite a few interesting and new dishes in the specialities section. In the end, I settled for the lamb shatkora, described as a spicy dish from Bengal cooked with exotic citrus fruit, even though the waiter was unable to identify the exact citrus fruits used. Strangely, despite the restaurant name, there is a distinct lack of tamarind mentioned on the menu. The dish arrived with a lot of generous chunks of tender lamb. The sauce was well balanced with the citrus flavour being well balanced with an aromatic woody base. Only slight problem was in obtaining my bill and paying, with the many waiters being great at serving the food but not so keen to collect the payment! A worthy replacement for the White Castle

My mango lassi was nicely flavoured with mango and not overly sweet. We decided to order some chef's specialities and eventually plumped for the roast duck delight and the Blue Mint lamb shank. The main meals did take awhile to come out which is a good sign, I suppose, that they're cooking it from scratch. However, it did result in us having to hurry a bit with our meal as we had to go to salsa. The lamb shank had a generous amount of meat and a lovely deep concentrated flavour to reflect its slow cooking roots. The roast duck delight was slightly spicier and also contained ground lamb and a sprinkle of hard boiled egg as a garnish Overall an enjoyable meal probably meriting 3.5 stars for the food but the slow service did force me to round down to 3 rather than up

We were the only people in the restaurant (I guess it was early), service was friendly enough, food was average but the floor, tables, furniture and general surroundings were sticky, greasy and grimey. Ofcourse one would hope that behind closed doors, the kitchen would be immaculate, however I doubt that is the case. Certainly enough to put me off my food. Food is actually not bad, but the whole dining experience is important to me.

It was a sweltering hot evening and we noticed that Paprika had tables set up outside on their deck and the door was open. Despite our bad experience previously, we decided to ask to look at a menu and it looked promising. So we took a table outside. My mango lassi was exemplary, packed full of mango flavour and the chutneys with the popoddams were yummy. We decided to go with some unfamiliar dishes - the chicken paprika and a lamb dish whose name escapes me. Both were full of flavour and well enjoyed. During our visit, we spoke to the manager about our previous experience and he was very apologetic. They're also going to post a menu outside from this week. So a reprieve and we look forward to trying more dishes here.

Located in the heart of Ewell Village, the atmosphere is amazing with extremely friendly staff waiting on you hand and foot. I would definately recommend this place to anybody who would like to try Indian cusine for the first time, or even if you are a regular and just want to try somewhere a bit new and different. If you have never had Indian before, my personal recommendation is the Chicken Korma with Pilau Rice - very tasty and not at all spicy.

They are very variable in my view, but for take out, I have not found any better than The Spice Hut. Seeing it has no reviews yet, I wanted to start the ball rolling. Note this is for take away only, but if you want generous portions, large chunks of meat, and really tasty sauces with aromatic spices, then give this place a try. This week we tried the Chicken Pasanda and the Haryali Chicken, the latter I would especially recommend for it unusual blend of mint, spinach and coriander. If I had to make a slight criticism, it would be that perhaps the sauces are sweetened a little too much. But overall I would happily recommend this take out.

Sometimes you walk into a restaurant, and just get a bad feeling. This was one of those times. I…read morewalked in with my husband, and the two members of staff (one male & one female) just looked at each other, for about 30 awkward seconds, before coming to seat us. Despite the door of the restaurant being open, it was almost as if they didn't want customers. So we instantly got an uncomfortable feeling of being unwelcome. Then the female member of staff came to our table and proceeded to undo our napkins for us - had we come in with our 3 year-old son, and had she been opening his napkin, I could've understood.....even thanked her. But she was opening napkins for 40 & 47 year-olds ! Hmmm, how do you tell someone that you'll open your napkin if & when you'd like it, and...well after you've ordered your drinks & meal ? The same member of staff asked if we'd like drinks, without giving us a drinks menu - so I asked for one. My husband picked something straightforward it seems, by choosing a Cobra. I asked for a 175ml glass of rosé. The manager (sorry, I'm assuming, but this member of staff did appear more senior) then came over to us to explain that he didn't have the rosé that I'd selected, and asked me to choose another wine. He said he had both other rosés on the drinks menu, so I picked one of those. 8 minutes after bringing my husband his Cobra (but, with him unable to 'chink' with me, feeling unable to drink it), and lots of rummaging & rustling later, the second (younger) male member of staff delivered a glass of wine to the table. The glass was not 175ml - but 250ml instead - and it was RED wine ! When I said that the glass was larger & red, rather than rosé, the chap mumbled that they didn't have the second rosé I'd chosen, so they just decided to bring me a glass of red instead !!! At this point, we walked out of the restaurant, neither of us having touched our drinks..... I wouldn't recommend this eatery, at least until staff have undertaken a lot of customer service training.

I liked the steamed momos but thought the veg filling was too soft for my liking. The curry was good but sadly way too spicy for me. The restaurant had a small seating area and more of a self-service feel. One of us saved our seats, while the other went up to the counter to order. The servers brought out the food item by item as soon as each one was ready. One of the servers kindly asked us if we were done with our meal if they could give our seats to the next people in line. We were more than happy to since the space was small. I highly recommend House of Momo!!

Especially for the price, the chili noodle (£7.50) and the steamed momo (£6) was quite filling (plus 12.5% charge for dine-in), but it's a bit too greasy and not as spicy as I expected. It wasn't crowded when I ordered, but the indoor space filled up as I was finishing up. Would definitely come back to try their other options.
