Passage To India - Ards

I have written a review before, and I must say this place is fantastic. Despite some negative reviews, I personally think the poor decor adds a lot of character to the atmosphere. Yes, the service may be a bit slow, but that's because they are incredibly busy with takeout orders. Just relax, chat with friends, and enjoy your own wine or spirits. My friends from London say it's the best Indian food they have ever had! Can you tell me where else you can find a sit-down two-course meal with BYO for only £15 each? Definitely not at the captain's table.

While the decor may remind you of 1975, don't let that deter you. The food is fantastic and the staff is consistently charming. Just don't forget to bring your own drinks.

This restaurant review is a negative one. The reviewer describes their second recent experience at the restaurant, where they experienced missing items in their order. The missing rice took 1 hour to be delivered, resulting in other items like chips, onion bhajees, and nan bread becoming cold. The reviewer asked for a refund but only received £2 and the missing rice much later. They mention that this is a recurring issue, with something missing from their orders every time they visit. Despite accepting apologies and promises of improvement, the same issue continues to happen. The reviewer expresses disappointment in the poor service and organization of the restaurant, despite enjoying the food. They conclude that they will no longer patronize the establishment due to consistent issues with their orders not being fulfilled.

Visited with my partner this evening. Hadn't been in about 5 years so was hoping it was still as good. Couldn't fault it all. Food was great and good service and very reasonably priced. Will definitely be back.

I have eaten here a few times lately never left a review. To be honest I don’t know why. These people ,in my opinion how to cook great Indian meals. Nothing to much bother for them. Please don’t be put of by the decor. May not look great. But very clean. I don’t think it’s their property but doing the best with what they have. The prices don’t reflect the quality. Really very nice on many occasions. A little slow. But they are very busy( that says something) . Allow at least 30 minutes.
