Although the order was nearly half an hour late it was still hot enough to eat, the driver was very polite and apologetic and gave us a few extras including a large bottle of Cobra beer . This Indian restaurant has always been a favourite of ours but last nights meal had some grit in it which was alittle off putting! On the whole I would say they are a good restaurant and well worth a visit.

The delivery was on time and the food still hot. The biryani was the very best I have had as a Takeaway. A biryani is a great choice to rate a Resturant and this was amazing and packed with flavour. It must take a lot of care and preparation to create this masterpiece. Will definitely be ordering again sometime soon.

Have used lal akash in New Malden before and this one is just as good

This is the first restaurant in this area that does 'aloo pratha', the right way (generous amounts of potato inside the bread). Most other places I've ordered from will usually place a token crumb of potato somewhere inside a nan bread and serve it up as aloo pratha. However Lal Akash's aloo pratha didn't disappoint. The rest of the food? Good too.

The only downside to this restaurant is the price - it's quite expensive compared to others in the area. I'm torn between heartily recommending it and hesitatingly recommending it. Objectively, I'd say that the food is good. But if you were to ask whether it's worth paying all that extra money for food this good, then I would demonstrably find a fence and sit on it until you got the message. If it were cheaper, I'd order from them more often.

the meal took so long (20 minutes after the latest time) to come that it arrived cold.

We ordered the food before the snow came down...It's true that it took a long time for Lal Akash to deliver (can't blame them for that!) - but I've given them excellent service because they sent the food round in a taxi! I was feeling guilty for getting someone to deliver when I wouldn't have gone out myself, so I phoned Lal Akash to say that I'd understand if they couldn't make the delivery given the weather conditions. Their response was not to cancel, but to make the delivery of the hot tasty food we'd ordered... thanks, Lal Akash - you'll definitely get orders from us again!

My first order from an Indian in Epsom in a while.. and it was rather delicious.. except the mushroom rice.. Was quite sour and unlike any mushroom rice i've had before.

love it!

Glad Lal Akash is on hungryhouse - one of the best curries around and a personal favourite!
