Lovely family evening at the De Laban Restaurant. Food was excellent, the best curry we’ve had, comfortable seating, made to feel very welcome, lovely atmosphere, bring your own drinks, thoroughly enjoyable and will definitely return. Well done

We visit very frequently, at least once a week, as De Laban is on our 'doorstep'. It is located in the midst of a suburban area, is small and chic so covers are limited, but they do provide excellent quality food and service. They do not sell/provide alcohol in house but are located next door to a store that provides a great array of chilled beers and wines. Whether you 'know your curries' or not, I would highly recommend a visit. Booking is essential if visiting on Fri/Sat pm.

De Laban are open! It’s been so long since we had a curry from a restaurant, I was delighted to find out that De Laban are delivering their usual standard of delicious food. Ordered a meal for 4, a very pleasant young man knocked the door 40 minutes later. The food was the best thing I’ve tasted since lockdown began! And the first meal I didn’t have to cook myself! Thank you De Laban, I’ll be calling you again very soon!

I was in on Saturday with my family, and although we were waiting for 2 hours for our food, we had a nice evening until we went to pay for the meal. My father, who frequents the restaurant often, was treated horribly by a waiter with a beard. Earlier in the meal, my father stated that his food was over salted, another waiter tried it, agreed that it was too salty and offered to take it off the bill. We appreciated the service. When paying, the waiter with a beard refused to take it off the bill, accused us of being too drunk and proceeded to be horrible to our party. I won’t lie, we had a few drinks, yes, but we were not unruly. There was an unfortunate accident where we had a couple of unopened bottles of wine on the table and while grabbing the bottles and all our coats to leave as the rude waiter demanded we did; I dropped the bottle and it smashed. It couldn’t have happened at a worse time. For dropping the bottle, I apologise and would have happily cleaned it up, however, the rude waiter who was stood in front of me said, “you’re lucky I don’t knock you out”. I told the waiter that he was being rude with a few choice words because how else do you expect a person to react to being threatened? I then left immediately because I didn’t want the situation to escalate further. Better to just walk away, especially since there was an 8-year-old with me. We cannot fault the rest of the meal or the service we received from the owner or other staff members. To anyone reading this review debating whether you should go or not, the answer is yes, it is a great restaurant. Please support local businesses and you will not be disappointed by the food here. To the rude waiter, you let down a great local business and made someone who has been coming to your restaurant weekly since it opened feel so unwelcome and unable to come back. Maybe you were having a bad day and I have no ill feelings towards you, but you spoiled a really great day and were the catalyst in sending this meal south. Be better.

Today we phoned De Laban and booked a table for 4. We arrived at 8 and they confirmed that they had our booking but they didn't have a table for us. The staff then said they would look at finding a table but we were left for 20 minutes at the bar with no further information. We then asked what was happening and they said they were trying to find a table. We could see that a table wasn't going to be free any time soon. The only time we found out what was happening was when we asked a passing staff. The whole place was in chaos. People were coming in to collect takeaways only to return 20 minutes later because they had only got half their order. Other people were arriving to pick up their takeaway and were still there having waited for 20 minutes. We left at this point 45 minutes after we had arrived. Unfortunately it is not the first time we have been to the De Laban where we have had issues with either the booking, time taken to have someone get our order or time taken to get our food. One time we waited 90 minutes after ordering before we got our starter. We only go because the food is really good but we have decided now that enough is enough and we will not be going there again. I would advise anyone else thinking of going to the De Laban to think carefully before booking as you may have not have a table available even though you had booked one and had confirmation of the booking and you may have to wait for a long time to be served and even longer to get your food

I phoned a takeaway collection for 2 people at 7.15pm and they said it would be 45mins. We arrived at 8pm to collect the food and it was chaos. It was full of people waiting for collections or arriving for prebooked tables and there were no tables. We were just told to wait and it will be there shortly, no apology. No organisation and the whole place was a mess. At 8.45pm we had enough, everyone had wrong or missing orders, we asked for a refund, the manager was very rude and argued. We finally got some food however when we got home at 9pm it was the wrong order! We will not be going back here again.

Food was very very tasty as usual. The chef had done what I asked for and had cooked mine with no Ghee and no oil as I find this too greasy. I do think that the drivers should be issued with a bag to carry the food in as by the time it got to us it was luke warm which was such a shame. He had just got the food in the paper bag on his passenger seat as I had to go to the car so saw this. Didn't put me off this time but if happens again will have to rethink.

This place is very pricey however the food is good and consistently so, every now and again we will splash out a little extra and order here. The portions arent the best and the containers are not full. Delivery is about 45 mins and food has always been hot - well as hot as can be expected for a delivery.

Huge family order and did not disappoint. The food was ready for collection immediately upon arrival and the quality of the meal was fantastic. Can’t wait until we are able to visit and sit inside the restaurant to enjoy our next meal!

We really enjoyed our take away food. The meat was of excellent quality and the poppadoms and naan bread were delicious. Especially good was the Peshwari naan. Great value, thank you.

Ordered for a family of 4 for a birthday celebration due to lockdown . Called early to check they could deliver to us (as out of area) which they were happy to. I requested a 7pm delivery. Turned up bang on time. Food was hot and delicious, couldn’t fault it. Will definitely order again.

Normally can’t fault this place but we turned up on Friday for my birthday meal that my partner had arranged as a surprise. Ordered our food and was really looking forward to it. Over an hour later and still no food had arrived but the couple next to us who were regulars you could tell had there starters turn up within 10 mins of ordering. When asked where our starters were we were met with blank looks from one member of staff. The man than served up the approached us and decided to ask what it was we had ordered. After this we got up and walked away how can you forget someone’s order and not put it though. Really disappointed ruined what should have been a lovely evening out.

This is a great restaurant in that the food is always a high quality imo. The reason for 2 stars is that even if a table for 12 is booked 3 months, (yes, 3 months) and you go in to remind them at 5:00 the same evening, the staff don’t keep a table for you. It’s hardly worth booking. Moan over.

Lovely clean and pleasantly decorated restaurant. Was a party of 5 ladies who all were happy with their main course meals, sides etc. However I was not at all happy with dips with poppadoms. Very small portions of onion mixture, mint yoghurt sauce, mango chutney which was hard to distinguish that as it had been so diluted in ran like water on the plate. Need more care when delivering very hot plates and dishes. But all taken into consideration would definitely visit again. Get the chef/s to learn from some other Indian how to prepare dips for poppadoms then might give extra star to review.

The last three deliveries to our home. It arrived late on average 20 minutes and only after every time I had to call to say you're late before it arrived. Today, our food was . Late, barley warm, and tasteless. This has Been the same for at least our last 3 deliveries in the last 8 to 10 weeks. Won't use it again
