We sat in and I had probably the best chicken Korma I've ever had in my life, with mushroom rice and a butter naan. Was absolutely delicious! Also the staff are very friendly, can't fault the place. Very generous portions.
Tasteful decor friendly staff (Anis served us) good service and really great food
I had the Himalayan lamb shank my wife had the Achari prawn
We eat a lot of Indian food and this was up there with the best - generous portions too
Highly recommended 👌
Great atmosphere, delicious food, and good service. We enjoyed ourselves so much that we forgot to tip - apologies to the servers!
We will be back soon, and I'd highly recommend!
Best Indian food I’ve ever had! Go nowhere else if you fancy an amazing curry or mouthwatering tandoori chicken. Loved their Balti lamb dish with pilau and special fried rice. Kudos to the chef and the very friendly stuff.
Very friendly and warm welcome given to us both for a 'walk in' without a booking. Really lovely setting with nice colours and lighting. The food we ordered was absolutely delicious and plentiful! The food quality was absolutely superb - everything tasted very fresh and very flavoursome, and I could tell it was prepared with care and effort by the chef. Highly recommended for a visit if you are staying in or near Sandown!
Amazing food, the best curry I have haf in years. All 4 in our party were very impressed with flavour and quality.
Service was a little slow but overall still 5 stars!
I’ve eaten in this restaurant twice now in two weeks. The restaurant and toilets are very clean and the atmosphere is airy and relaxed. The food is amazing, the Nepalese dishes offer great variation too. The food is piping hot, generous and above all delicious. The best I’ve had in the Island bar none.
What makes the meal even better is Balash and Anis. They are brilliant. Always smiling and very polite. Their service is exemplary. They are great to talk with and joke with and really do add to the dining experience. See you soon
Excellent on all counts. especially recommend the Nizami- I got chicken and would probably choose vegetable next time for my own preference. It was cooked and seasoned perfectly, served piping hot. The server actually made the recommendation at my request for something spicy and creamy, and he got it exactly right. Service was attentive. Atmosphere was enjoyable. Would recommend 10/10
We have been going to this restaurant regularly for the past few months and have never had a bad meal, experience and the atmosphere is always good. The waiters are always very helpful and go above and beyond to make sure you are happy. A big shout out to palish (hope I spelt it right) who is always super helpful.
Been coming here regularly over the past year for the amazing food and friendly staff. Unfortunately witnessed a sad scene in which the bad reviews have been left wrongly. The staff were very patient and calm. And it seemed this family was looking for trouble! As they complained over the food portions yet ordered 3 mains for 12 people ! And cleared the plates yet still complained🤔
The staff have always been respectful and kind.and the 2 beautiful girls that work there have always been friendly on the phone and hardworking. Just like the rest of the staff. The business owner always shakes mine and my husbands hands when we leave. Always feel so very welcomed. Saddens me to see these hurtful reviews.
Always wishing the staff the best ! And the food always amazing 💗
My wife and I stayed in Sandown for a few nights away and honestly suprised at how many venues/restaurants have closed. I am aware that we are out of season but we were struggling to find somewhere to have dinner. We came across Cardamom Indian restaurant and thought we would give it a go. I ordered the Himalayan lamb shank with chickpeas and rice and my wife a chicken tikka masala plus some sides. Quite simply delicious, fresh and clearly passionate food. Our waiter Anis made us feel welcome and was very attentive. If you're in Sandown and like Indian cuisine look no further....highly recommend.
Come here after a six hour journey from London. Nice evening meal.
Had our second meal before leaving for London. Very friendly staff, service was great. Catered to our needs.
Staff very welcoming on entering. Poppadoms and drink arrived quickly great selection of dips for the Poppadoms. Ordered a korma egg fried rice onion bargies and garlic naan. The chicken was fantastic probably the best chicken I've had in at least 4 months. The rice was nice the bargies where fab overall 10/10
We had a really good meal for the third time in as many months tonight. The flavours of the herbs and spices were fresh and so tasty. We will be back.
Excellent Shaslick piping hot... mains too with side dishes and naan bread made this the best Indian we've had in a long time especially away from home... Well done the staff and kitchen staff... Polite, clean and friendly place... 4 for atmosphere as it was a Monday and based on that it was quiet....
Very fresh beautiful curry delights palash is a fantastic host

I ordered a chicken madras, first madras I've ever had. It is nigh on perfect (still eating it hehe) The heat, the flavour, absolutely spectacular. I will come again for sure.
Good option for folks looking for Indian cuisine on Sandown high street. The restaurant opens only in the evening post 5 hence dinner is the only option.
