What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Diners praise Red Rose of Chessington for its authentic Indian flavors, generous portions, and consistently high-quality food, often calling it the best in the area. The staff are frequently commended for being friendly, attentive, and accommodating, particularly with spice level adjustments. However, some reviews mention issues with long wait times for delivery and dine-in, as well as occasional inconsistencies in food quality like watery curries or overcooked items.
"Food is top tier, I can say this with firm confidence as I've been coming here for well over a decade. Nice venue. The owner/ manager always remembers us and is always welcoming.
My girlfriend likes it spicy, so they got her the spiciest thing on the venue. Everyone, even the staff watched her as an event. She said it was delicious but could be spicier!
When we were in on Tuesday the service for drinks was a bit slower than the usual top tier service we get. Hopefully that is a one off.
My uncle who came from America would always make a point of coming here at least once a visit. RIP Keith. They would always give him spirits at the end included in the meal. As I learnt from him, never turn down a free drink, or pass the drink to someone who will drink it.
Make sure to visit!"

"After using the red rose a few years regularly, including weekly visits and home delivery, we decided to visit the restaurant this evening, which was disappointing. The food has gone down hill, butterfly prawn was extremely over cooked, curries were watery when put on plate and didn’t have much flavour. To then be asked to pay cash. In 2024, we don’t carry cash. My partner is disabled, meaning I had to take his card and walk to cash machine, not what I wanted to do after a meal. Will not be returning"

"Ordered a takeaway which was meant to arrive at 6.15. It finally arrived at 6.50 hence it was Luke warm. Sauce was like a jar sauce and overall very disappointing. Three man courses, one vegetable dish (no rice or bread) and it cost £50! Such a shame"
