Altafs Balti - Worcester

We had a meal in the restaurant was quite late, but yes quiet

We recently moved to the area and decided to order from this restaurant on Uber Eats. After placing the order, I came across many negative reviews, which made me quite nervous. I even called the curry house to cancel, but they had already started preparing the food. However, I was pleasantly surprised. The Balti we ordered was delicious, hot, and delivered on time. Thank you for a great meal! I will definitely be ordering from you again. I have tried many curries before, and this one ranks among the best. Thank you.

I ordered a balti takeaway on Wednesday evening. I got 1 mixed balti, 1 lamb madrass, saag paneer, two naans, 4 popadoms, and chips. Unfortunately, the balti was terrible. It was flavorless, bright red (unlike any balti I've seen before), and tasted like an English dish with meat in red wine. The meat was tough and tasted old. The madras was not spicy at all, the chips were overcooked, and the naans were stale. The saag paneer was the best dish but only rated a 6/10. I had heard good things about altafs but was disappointed with my experience. I picked up my order at 6:30pm when the restaurant only had two tables occupied, so they weren't busy. Even the popadoms tasted old and the madras had bone fragments in it. This was the worst curry I've had in 10 years and cost around £35. It seems like the chef that night was not the usual one because the food was simply unacceptable.

I had made a reservation for 7pm for myself and three friends, but when we arrived, the restaurant was empty except for two men at another table. By 7:10 pm, the waitress had not even asked us if we wanted drinks or popadoms. Two groups of four people then arrived and were seated at two tables. We had to request popadoms at 7:15 pm, and even then, the other tables were served before us. One table even received a second round of popadoms. By 8pm, we still had not been served or approached by the staff, while starters had been brought out for the other tables. We found this level of service completely unacceptable, so we informed the staff and left in disappointment. This restaurant used to have good service, but it seems things have changed. We felt ignored and mistreated by the rude and shocking service, and the behavior of the staff was unacceptable. We will not be returning and advise others to avoid this restaurant.

Curry and catch up with an ex colleague. Seated and order taken promptly. Food excellent chicken bhuna with rice and naan. Piping hot and qood quality and quantity. Happily visit again when next in Worcester
