Kismet - Brighton and Hove

We ordered takeout from this restaurant, but we had to wait 50 minutes for our order. After 1 hour and 30 minutes, our food still had not arrived. When we called the restaurant, at first they claimed they didn't know anything about our order, but then they admitted they had it but couldn't provide an estimated arrival time. We are still waiting for our food to be delivered.

I have been getting Indian takeout from Kismet for the past few months, as I have lived in Hove my whole life. I regret not discovering this gem sooner. Each curry is made from scratch with love and expertise. It is a family-run business, with Milan being the friendly face at the front. I highly recommend this place, and I doubt you will find a dish you don't enjoy.

One and a half hours to deliver, vegetable bhuna so called was tasteless and made of cabbage and peas and some raw tomatoes was yuk. My wife didn’t complain about the meat dishes but she’s not fussy. Will go back to TIKKA our usual next time.

I ordered from this takeaway for the first time this month as a treat for myself. I always order king prawns and it’s interesting to see how many you get in different places! (A telling sign as to whether they’re scrimping on the shrimping or anything else! Anyway, it’s my new favourite place. They are so polite, so keen to please and good customer service is really important to me. The food was super indulgent and I felt very satisfied and happy at the end of it. For sure, this is my new monthly treat!

I have been dining at Kismet weekly since the lockdown and the service has been excellent, especially considering how busy they must be. I try a different dish each week, mostly chicken dishes, and I have never had a bad meal. My favorite is the Chicken Tikka Chilli Masala with a side of coriander naan.
