Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Ordered a carryout : Absolutely the best Indian restaurant in Wellingborough and the staff are so friendly and kind. We had Chicken Tikka Jalfrezi and Chicken Tikka Madras, the flavours were so delicately balanced and fresh with lots of meat and the Jalfrezi was packed...full of beautifully soft vegetables as well. Will be back again very soon for sure. Thank you for a wonderful meal and for being so lovely to talk to while waiting for our meal to take away. 5*****More

Ordered a take away and for the 3rd time had to cancel for it being over 45 mins late, waiter on the phone didn't care, definitely won't be using again and definitely won't be recommending to anyone else

The service was amazing and even lent me some reading glasses as I forgot mine. The food was amazing and it wasn't over priced. Looking forward to going back.

We rang the restaurant the day before to enquire about my wife's dietary needs as she is vegan and wheat intolerant. The person on the phone said something along the lines of “what ever she would like to eat; we can make it for her”....We then booked the restaurant. We went the next day, explained to our waiter that this is what was said. The reply was no they cannot make the onion bhajis vegan and wheat free as the mixutre had already been made. Our waiter was good and offered an alternative of veg chat without puree and with a poppadom instead. It was spicy but no sweet and sour taste. The shish kebab was lovely and tender and tasty The mains were catered for my wife’s dietary needs which was really appreciated. We could not fault our waiter at all. My wife had the Tikka dall and spinach with lemon rice. I had the north chilli chicken with keema rice, very spicy. We even had to take doggy bags home. Good portionsMore

This is our go-to restaurant for delivered Indian food. We had yet another superb meal last night. Delivered quicker than expected and all four dishes were fab. The Khanshama Chicken Jholl was a new one to me and I'll have it again for sure! Thanks...guys, keep up the good work!More

Just Great !! The staff are extremely friendly in this very well family restaurant. There is a wide choice on the menu. I am sixty one years old, I have travelled throughout the UK and I can honestly say it's the best Indian food I...have eaten. Well Done to the team at Ali's!More

Ordered from here many of times and never had an issue however with it being New Year’s Eve and having the family come round, we thought we would order a takeout. Waited 1 hour and 40 minutes for our order to arrive, which was ok...as it was a busy period, however an item was missing. Someone’s main meal which I wasn’t going to let go. When I rang the restaurant to inform them, they were the least bit helpful. Indirectly calling me a liar and wouldn’t let me get a word in edge, which led me to hang up. The restaurant then rang me back and informed me a replacement missing meal was on the way. Waited 15 minutes to find they’d sent another wrong dish. I wasn’t wasting my time anymore. I won’t be ordering from this restaurant again. Happy new year, you’ve lost custom!More

Called to order a large number of meals for a special birthday celebration and received the most appalling attitude when asked if they could throw in some poppadoms. I was told "we don't give free poppadoms and we are busy so we don't actually need...your order". Absolutely gobsmacked!! Not at the lack of free poppadoms but at the disgusting attitude! How lucky for them that they are happy to turn away business in this current climate!!!! This business has lost a lot of customers tonight as there were a lot of people in the family ready to place their order!!!!More

Visited as a group of 4 in September and all of us had really good food with pleasant, attentive service. Went here on the back of Tripadvisor reviews as we aren’t from the area and we weren’t disappointed.

Far too much focus on the takeaway delivery side of the business and not enough of customers dining in. Coming to take orders and serving food took ages. The manager guy was on the phone all the time… the waiter had poor English and the...delivery driver was in and out like a yo-yo. Sadly the food was average too.More

Always excellent service, friendly and attentive. The food was delicious, flavoursome but tender lamb and prawns that tasted of prawn, which they often do not. The Naan straight out of the tandoori, crisp and piping hot. Also the food was not floating in ghee which...is often the case. Really enjoyed it, thank you.More

In fairness we were served by various waiters but one in particular obviously didn't want to be there. I know people have off-days but we were left to feel a little unwelcome overall. Can't fault the food though! Food was served fast and hot.
