We don’t use anywhere else for our weekend delicious meals. Whether we are at home or eating in, the food quality and freshness is brilliant. Big bits of chicken and lamb and huge tasty prawns. I work at the barbers very close, I always say hello to the boys whilst walking home and they always come out and are amazing people and make you feel good. I’ve eaten my way through the menu here and the only complaint I have is I don’t have a second, bigger stomach.

I love Cardomom. Fantastic chefs, warm and friendly service. Inan is doing a great job. I had prawn puri, delicious, but the king was Lamb Pistachio Paneer Masala. I love rich, creamy curries, but they’re always too mild for me. This is delicious and satisfying, with a really good chilli hit. Yum! The prices are amazing too.

This is my favourite Indian restaurant in the Orpington/Bromley area. Staff are very welcoming and friendly, the food tastes great and the restaurant itself is tastefully decorated and comfortable. I highly recommend this restaurant for your next date night

Had dinner here earlier this week with my family. The staff were super friendly and very attentive, and the food was tasty and the portions were generous. We all walked out very satisfied and barely able to walk we were so full! Will likely call in again in the future and will be our go-to takeaway now as well.

Great local traditional curry house. Staff lovely and food delicious!

Ordered a delvery this evening arrived promptly and was sooo tasty and still hot! Highly recommend !

One of the best Indian restaurants I've ever been in can't fault them food was excellent service was also excellent and they were very friendly we booked in advance which I think is advisable here ? Only a small restaurant but I will be going back again for sure it's also very reasonably priced I thoroughly recommend this establishment.

Delicious Indian food with really pleasant and friendly staff. Portions are good and the food is well presented. Highly recommended, we'll definitely be returning :)
