Red Rose - Charnwood

The restaurant has declined in quality compared to before. The food and service standards have dropped, with noticeably less meat and lower quality in the curries. Portion sizes are smaller now, reflecting an attempt to cut costs. In a competitive market, there are better options with greater value for money and higher quality available.

We ordered takeout to celebrate our 18th wedding anniversary and were extremely impressed with the delicious food and efficient delivery service.

Three of us went to this restaurant on December 23rd and had a great time. The menu had a great selection of dishes and the service was friendly and efficient. The papadums, pickles, onion bhaji, samosas, curries, rice, and naan were all freshly made, delicious, and served hot. The quality of the food exceeded our expectations and was well worth the price.

We had a takeaway, 2 mains, rice and naans and 1 starter. Food was delicious, arrived piping hot, delivery driver was lovely. Would recommend.

The menu got posted a few days before we ordered. I have heard about the restaurant but didn't know they have a specials menu which included curry, rise and naan bread for £7.50, which I though was good value, particually with the 10% off for collection. So we ordered the chicken tikka masala, lamb bhuna with rice. We upgraded both naan breads. So, with 25p different in naans on the menu, this should of been £15.50, before the discount. When I phoned the chap said £17.50 but mentioned something about a chutney tray so I didn't think too much about the price difference. When I collected it, I asked about the 10% off discount. He said it has been taken off and the bill was £16.50, which I though was weird but with the chutney tray and poppadoms I was fairly happy. However, I certainly wasn't when I got home. We received 4 small containers and the 2 naan breads. No chutney tray. The lamb bhuna had 4 medium sized peices on lamb, 3/4 filled up with a good layer on oil on top. It tasted just Okay. The CTM was better with a little more meat. The service in the restaurant was fine, not good or bad. There was no mention of price rises or dish size reductions. I don't know how the price was so high from the specials menu and with the alledged discount. This was the last indian restaurant in Syston that I've tried, it will remain in last place. There are much, much better indian restaurants in Syston, which better value and sized specials menus. We will not be returning
