It was our first time and we were not disappointed. Very good service, tasty food. We had wine with our meal and it was excellent, with cocktails to finish. Atmosphere a bit flat but to be expected in the current covid restricted days. Will certainly return and would recommend.
Great food and service from Desh. I would recommend this place to anyone
After 3 years living in India we are delighted that we now have a restaurant locally that provides the flavour and standards we enjoyed our there, rather than the usual British Curry house. This visit was with friends we made during our time in Southern India, and they were as impressed as we are with the dishes available, and the standard of cooking. I can’t recommend Desh highly enough.
Food was exceptional, we will be visiting again very soon.
The food was as good as it always was, it was great to get back to our favourite Indian
Desh is a fantastic choice if you fancy a good curry with a modern twist. We have eaten from them a few times and everytime it’s been great.
Great food, friendly staff, price in line with other restaurants in the area.
If you want authentic Indian food, then Desh has it
Excellent food, polite and courteous service given the current climate.
Our first visit and we will definitely be returning.
delicious food, with a modern twist. excellent service
Great to see a different menu. The food was absolutely delicious
Been to this restaurant a few tines and have been really impressed with the food, the presentation and the ambience. Normally Indian restaurants don't have the nicest glasses for drinks but Desh do and it makes the experience more enjoyable.
Food is great - nouveau style.. Not traditional English style.
Love the food here. Authentic and unusual the food is always well flavoured and presented beautifully. If you haven’t ever tried a Puri then you must! The Chilli Chicken is a real winner and would highly recommend the slow cooked House Special Beef Bhuna. By far our favourite Indian
Food was very tasty and the staff were very friendly.
Our first visit. Interesting flavours, with a good depth of spices.
Staff were really friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Food was absolutely delicious - highly recommend the lamp chops with spinach!
Food was very nice. Different to a bog standard curry house.
Staff were very attentive and friendly.
Excellent food superb service good value
Only complaint noisy people crunching poppadoms not restaurants fault 😁
Really impressed with the style of the place and the food.
By limiting the covers and groups it makes the experience and service better than other local Indian restaurants.
Charlotte’s attention and service was fab.
Menu fantastic
All the food ordered by our party was delicious
Great service
We’ll definitely be back
Food had amazing tastes and aromas. Presentation was perfect. Had malling special grill which was great but hadn't realised that it included cheese and peppers that were identical to my starter. Plenty of quantity couldn't finish my main and no room for dessert. Would definitely go again.
The restaurant is clean and modern in appearance and has a special offer on Thursday evenings. The service was OK but could be better. At #18 for two courses I expected a bit more than a scoop of rice and small bowl of chicken in a spicy sauce and a small scoop of raspberry sorbet; the food was unremarkable and poor value for money.
Very different Indian food in a good way.
All very tasty. 4 of us chose 3 courses each from the Set Menu which didn’t disappoint. We had popadoms and chapatis, 2 Tiger beers an 2 cocktails for a total of £122 which was ok.
Would definitely go again.
Again. Food and service exceptional.
Defo recommend the Lamb Chops
We had a lovely meal in Desh. The chilli chicken to start was really tasty. I had the chicken tikka for main which came with rice and my husband had the salmon. Both dishes were really clean and incredibly flavourful. The staff were really attentive and the restaurant has a great atmosphere to it. We were told by the staff that they also do a children’s menu so we will definitely be back with the kids!
Great food quality but doesn’t feel authentic in it’s ambience
Slightly disappointed with the menu choices, presentation was bit under whelming
Service was very slow, very very noisy due to a table of 6 laughing and talking really loudly, it is a restaurant and not a pub at the end of the day, couldn’t hear friends of ours talking who we were catching up with.
Some food was cold on arrival
Lovely food, good choice and friendly staff! Definitely going back!
Man cannot live by Desh’s bread alone. She can, by the high standards of everything else. Desh is the best Indian restaurant in Kent; I love the finer dining Indian food experience. Service is exceptional, food is prepared carefully and looks beautiful, matching the quality decor befitting the interior.
Splash out, enjoy and smile.
Lovely Authentic food. Our first time here and we were impressed. We had two straters, two mains and a pudding; one meal was from the set menu meaning we got a fair discount. Service was attentive, friendly and prompt, and as it was a very stormy weekday evening the place was very quiet. Portion sizes were excellent, and as we'd also ordered sides of poppadoms, naans and a daal we had loads left to take home, which made a great meal the following day. If they could edge the prices down a little this would be an absolute favourite in West Malling.
The food was really delicious. The spiciness of the curry can be adjusted to your preference. We had a really lovely night and would highly recommend.
Consistently excellent food that tastes so different to the usual Indian restaurant menus.
Love this restaurant, food service 100%
The staff were extremely attentive and made you feel very welcome. Very professional and seamless service.
From the poppadoms at the start of the meal the food was excellent. After many years of eating Indian food this was by far the most unique cuisine we ever had.
You simply need to just make a booking and see for yourself.
Thanks Desh
Really enjoyed the meal very high standard and spiced perfectly. My only suggestion is that the lighting is dimmed just a bit to make it more ambient.
Fantastic food, really lovely evening, recommended!
I booked a table for my nephew and his wife visiting from America, they loved it so much they want to go again before they go home !
Lovely meal and the staff were very professional, especially the waitress in the brown boots and dress, didn’t get her name but Thankyou a very enjoyable evening
