We have been a royal customer for over 6 years now and normally do takeaway from there quite often even though we have moved away from that area but yesterday's food was just appalling. The paneer we received was salty, the naan was just thick, chewy & seemed stale and the dosa didn't seem fresh at all. The food was definitely reheated. My daughter eventually ended up throwing up her food at 3 am in the morning which does prove that their food has gone downhill. If you have a family and little ones, please avoid this place. There are plenty of vegetarian restaurants in Leicester thst serve and

Tangoe has become an institution in leicester; chili paneer like no other (bar one...)
The restaurant had a major refurb last year and it looks classy and cosy inside now, a decent place to enjoy your indo-chinese and South Indian food. The portions are always huge, the prices are always reasonable and the service is always super quick. Compare Tangoe to the other similar restaurant and for me Tangoe comes up the clear winner every time. I'd recommend all the different paneer dishes, the crispy aubergine, the noodles (all varieties) and the crispy bhajia. If you're looking for an eat-in or

Most of the food we ordered tasted very
bland, service was very slow.
Dhosas we ordered were undercooked and
very soft.. the sambhal that comes with it was
cold! Asked for a replacement and was told
fresh ones being made, came 10 minutes later
piping hot that we couldn't have it by which
time dhosas were cold ruined our experience
totally. Restaurant can be very small and cramped
especially during covid times. Used to be much better back in the day but
has gone very downhill. There are far better
options in Leicester for vegetarian food

Tasty food , large portions and the cafe area looks simple and clean but I usually always get a takeaway. My order is always ready within the time stated during my phone call when I order. Roughly 20mins.
