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.

We loved, loved, loved the meal we had here. The food was fantastic (we love Indian food, and this was one of the best Indian meals we've had) and the lady serving us was brilliant. We had a lovely chat with her about the restaurant,...her dinner (we hope it didn't go cold) and her family. We can't wait to come back!More

I must say how delicious the food is, never disappoints. My favourite is the butter chicken and gulub jams. The chef manages to create dishes which taste better than most restaurants. Recommended!

First time I’ve visited the Tandoori Lounge an a recommendation by a friend. It didn’t disappoint on any level. Really nice atmosphere and the staff were attentive and very friendly. Food was excellent with great flavours and the meal was worth every penny.

Usually nay Indian style Biriyani always the chicken is cooked with any spices / masala. Myself...and Daughter are in bed today with terrible stomach upsetMore

By far the best Indian in Hornchurch (could easily go as far as saying Havering) if you want your "english" Indian then this isn't for you BUT don't knock it until you've tried it. Tried it. Loved it. Will be coming back 100% Staff very...welcoming and accommodating. Keep eyes peeled too if you're a football fan. Plenty of meet and greets going on in this place.More

Excellent food and the most friendly and hospitable hosts. A gem in romford! I took a young person here to try Indian food for the first time. She loved it and it was no problem making her food more mild after she tasted it.

From start to finish the lovely waitress Jane looked after my husband and I. I cant eat dairy or gluten and she took me through the menu, double checked what was acceptable for me and suggested a really lovely starter for me too. She was...always on the move and so proactive at her job. She made our visit a joy and we will definately be back again.More

The only Punjabi restuarant in Hornchurch and rightly so! Me & a few friends attended a private dinner & Q&A with the Arsenal Legend Paul Merson. This was my first visit here, so I will need a few more visits to get a handle on...the dishes but this maiden visit was a great start. We we served starters on a 'refill' basis and the venue were generous. For this visit it was Chcicken Tikka, Sheekh Kebabs & mini Punjabi crust Vegetable Samosa. All were well seasoned and hot. Mains consisted of a Chicken Tikka, Masala, Tarka Daal, Aloo (Potato) Masala, Naans & Pilau Rice. All were well prepared and moderately spiced as I was one of a small minority in the venue that is used to spicy spicy dishes! I am keen to go back, as we didn't get to sample the Lamb based dishes and open the palate up more. The Cobra beer was on draught & cold and the premium spirits capped of a great evening! Thanks to Sukh, Honey & the TL family for the hospitality!More
