fazman1977 Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Victim of its own success, or a has been? Only reason I ask is that I ordered a home delivery from them at 20 past 7. Two phone calls back to them and quarter past nine and it's still not here. Not happy. Is there not WAPPER that works there?

St Mikey Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Just order from somewhere else and refuse the delivery if you have not already paid for it. Â If you have then ask for your money back. Â Think its Dr Christmas Jones your after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Pomarium of Flats Posted April 21, 2013 Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 Kamal, owner of Odesi, has a long and storied history of not actually paying for a delivery driver. Instead, if someone phones in, he'll either dispatch a waiter or ask Pegasus/A1/Dalyano's to let him use theirs. If the restaurant is busy and his neighbours are doing their own deliveries then that's you shit out of luck, chuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintly Child Posted April 21, 2013 Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 Still the best curry house in the town though and if you go on they make you feel like royalty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there not WAPPER that works there?                I used to work there faz,I was the only driver for a couple of months then we took on another driver on a Friday and Saturday at the busiest time 5-9.We were unbelievably busy to the extent the kitchen could nt cope.As far as I know there is just the one driver now.              Faz what I will say is that 2 brothers that are regulars(both sitting in and take-away) with Kamal.One complained all the time about the delivery service to Kamal and the driver.His brother said if you want fast food then go to MacDonalds.             I know that 2 hours is not an acceptable waiting time for any delivery that was quoted an hour though.             Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_Beatson Posted April 21, 2013 Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 If you're ordering a take away on the Saturday night you'd be best going and getting it yourself, no matter where you're getting it from. The only place I'd take delivery from at peak time would be Dominos, who actually have the staff to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fazman1977 Posted April 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) Care to expand? Need a venue for a wee ruby in Perth soon. cheers   Dave,  Tabla is top-notch. The guy, Praveen, that owns it worked in Gleneagles before too, so the service is great and he's a really nice guy too. Try the salmon tandoori. It's amazing. You won't go wrong with Tabla. They recently won an award for their restaurant aswell. Testimony to their hard work.  A word to the wise - Tony Heath, Graeme Pallister and *** Dover all get their curries from Tabla on their days off. These guys are all top local chefs so they know their stuff.   Edit - had to laugh at T I M Dover's first name being censored!

Steve Zissou Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 Dave, don't have much to add other than what Fazman said. They make all their stuff fresh, and you can really tell. I've lived in Glasgow and Manchester and Tabla is up with the best curry houses those cities have to offer. The restaurant is busy pretty much every night of the week which speaks for itself. Check out the reviews on tripadvisor too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOODLUM65 Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 Awarded a rosette by A.A. Photo of owners and staff on page 5 of todays Courier . Hope to visit this establishment soon for the first time. Haven't had a chicken buryani with curry sauce in Decades. Yes, apparently booking is advisable .

Tranmere Saintee Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 On the flip side I have heard several complaints about Tabla's food being only luke-warm when they have had large groups to cater for.

saintcraigieboy Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 Yip had a couple of good meals in tabla. But also had a very poor (and expensive) take out and a poor chicken patia on a lunch deal SanginSaint 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BraveSaintsRock Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Tabala quality and quantity very disappointing. I complained and dot a voucher for another meal. I tried agan with open mind thinking it was a one off but again I wasn't impressed. Not recommended from me as I won't be back.

fazman1977 Posted May 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 That new one, Nawaab I think it's called, on South Methven St is meant to be very good.

HOODLUM65 Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Perth is crying out for one of these establishments to go that extra mile. Its ok to post that you felt "wanted" when you arrive. But folk want more than that. They want it to be an unforgettable experience, on a Special occasion, e.g. Birthday, Anniversary etc. Some reviews on here regarding the food, whether it is sit in or takeaway ( quality should not vary) really disapoints me. Will Say, I have been to Odesi more than once (sit-in). Service, quality of food, size of portions, attention to customers requests, could not be faulted. Makes me wary of visiting some of these other establishments . As they say, one mans meat is another man's poison. Did I really say that, when "we" are talking about food, which I love.

Dave H Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 used to get my Indian takeaway from odesi for a few years. Although stopped following two separate meals where the quality of chicken was shocking. Two strikes and i am gone. You want tasty food then try the Gurka. Thats my place for tasty and spicy take aways. St Mikey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
