Excellent food and service! Went for a family meal. They had a great selection of dishes, lots of interesting and different to the ‘standard’ Indian menu. Plenty of vegetarian and fish dishes and they did children’s menu too! Extremely tasty food which you can see them preparing as the kitchen is in the room. The staff were very welcoming would definitely recommend stopping by!
Staying overnight in campervan to catch ferry in the morning. Had food to allow the stay for free.
Food was amazing, perfect start to a vacation. My wife even atone point said was probably the best curry she has ever had.
Staff are also all very friendly and relaxed. Loved it, will be back again for sure.
The food here is delicious! 10/10 would recommend, authentic and tasty food. Refreshing menu with real Indian dishes not made up western dishes. Leave your butter chicken behind try something new, you can’t go wrong here! Tons of vegetarian and meat options. Service is fantastic. New owner is super friendly and servers are funny and helpful.
They also allow camper-vans to stay overnight in the parking lot if you have a meal. Not a bad trade off when you realise the food is amazing. Definitely come by, you will not be disappointed!!
Had a takeaway delivered, It came way ahead of the ETA and the flavours are simply fantastic. The Railway Lamb Curry was probably one of the best I have eaten for a long time
We stayed here overnight in our motorhome prior to sailing to France. Then we were pleased to see that the pub offered authentic Indian cuisine.... then we ordered.... Utterly fabulous food! Original menu, not the usual madras, dhansak etc. (although they're lovely too!!). All made in an open kitchen and did I say how absolutely delicious the food was? The staff were wonderful, friendly and attentive without being too intrusive. Can't give it less than 5 stars.
Table of 16 on a Saturday night!!.
The service our party received was without fault, 3 families, 3 separate orders, 3 split bills.
The food all arrived in sequence and we ate as one family, all was piping hot, perfectly presented, and a very attentive service from all the team.
The manager was always there to ensure all drinks were replenished and everyone was happy with all entities. I would highly recommend this establishment.
Menu is a perfect selection for all pallets and can be amended per request if needed. We all throughly enjoyed our evening and will be returning in the near future. A very big well done on the experience all customers received throughout the evening. 10/10.
Thankyou.!
The food and the host at Swingate are both absolutely wonderful! We were accidental visitors. We got a flat tire on the road outside. While waiting for a tow, we had a wonderful meal and great company. They even stayed up late past 11:30pm so we could stay in the lobby waiting for the tow truck! Amazing circumstances, but even better people and food! Thank you so much!!
Are standards are high when it comes to good Indian food and there are alot to choose from in and around this area but extremely glad we decided on this restaurant. From the beginning the staff were from and helpful but the real treat was seeing their Chefs at work in the open kitchen they have. From the skills of the chef Maki the fresh Nan bread, how he times it just right is amazing, to the wonderful dishes being made by the other couple of Chefs, dipping into their little pots of spices and chilies to make the most wonderful flavored dishes we have had in a long time at any Indian Restaurant. Thus is a place worth the trip, simply for the outstanding ability to produce such great curries. We will be back.
Chef de Mumbai restaurant opened recently and I can't rate it highly enough. For anyone who likes Indian food this is a must - visit place. Exquisite food and beautifully presented.
We visited the night before ferry crossing to Calais. Parked overnight for free in our Motorhome providing we ate In restaurant.
Quiet location about 7 minute drive to ferry terminal.
Delicious dinner with very friendly owner and staff. We will be visiting again upon our return to UK as the experience was so good!
