We went there very first time and it was really amazing experience. Everything was perfect, staff members all good, I like there most that was their serving style. I recommend it to you if you want to enjoy Indian style. Thanks

High quality food with excellent presentation. I’ve watched this restaurant develop and just get better and better. The soft shell crab starter is especially remarkable. The staff want to do a great job and care about doing so, opening the door for you as you leave. Recommend a visit.

We’ve been to the Viceroy many, many times over the years and Rushan and his team never disappoint. Everything is always spot on, delicious food, attentive staff, excellent service, great ambience, and lovely surroundings. The Chicken Jalfrezi is my personal favourite
If there’s a better Indian restaurant in the Stafford, Cannock, Rugeley area, I’ve yet to find it. Recommended 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Took 3 hours to get food after ordering. In the restaurant for 4 hours. Spent a lot of money with a party of 11. Had the cheek to say was everything ok upon payment. Stated the wait time was not acceptable but the reply I got was ‘that we were busy’. No resolution provided. Evidently priority was made to the takeaway orders with the amount coming in for ordering and collection. Very disappointed…I advise not to go on a Saturday. The food was ok.but had a better curry elsewhere however it is overpriced and the portions are small.

I love this restaurant! Second visit here and it does not disappoint. The staff are incredibly welcoming and helpful. The venue itself is really nice and very pleased they have expanded their carpark now. The food is off the charts. There are some amazing takes on traditional dishes and some unique dishes you won’t find in other restaurants and all are excellently balanced. We took 2 family members with us this time and they said afterwards that it had ruined cheap indian restaurants for them! But please know that this is by no means expensive and in comparison to other quality restaurants I would say competitive. If you havent tried it then make it your next meal out.

Don’t waste your money. Ordered a takeaway to be delivered. Was 35 minutes late. Was emailed at time of delivery to say food on way. 30 mins later still not arrived. Rang the restaurant & was just told was on the way. Unsurprisingly when it arrived it was barely warm. Rang the restaurant to tell them it was cold & they just hung up. Extremely poor delivery service and extremely poor customer service.

If you want food that has the best fresh herbs & spices ingredients to make any dish on the menu taste superb then this is the place , if you want bland Indian food full of sugar and colouring to make it look and taste good like most Indian restaurants then this is not the place to eat . 10/10

A lot of promise, with an interesting menu and a nicely decorated restaurant, but let down massively by a number of issues.

Most of the staff we encountered didn’t seem to know what they were doing, and didn’t speak or understand English well. We had booked in advance but they didn’t appear to have a table set up ready, and we had to wait a while to be seated, not the end of the world, but the table we were put on felt a bit squashed in and hadn’t been laid properly.

Overall the meal took hours. To be fair the restaurant was reasonably busy, but there didn’t seem to be any management going on to ensure that things were coming out in a timely and well paced manner (like managing when orders were taken from different tables etc) so some courses or drinks came quickly together then there would be a huge gap before the next course.

We ordered a couple of bottles of wine and it was like they’d never handled wine before. It took ages to arrive, they eventually bought one bottle but we had to ask them a couple of times for the other and they really seemed just a bit confused with it all. They seemed to really struggle to understand how many glasses we needed – our table of 5 had only been laid with 2 glasses initially – and it took several attempts of going back and forth before they finally managed to get all 5 of us a glass – didn’t seem like rocket science but it was mildly entertaining at least!

We repeatedly had to ask for the tap water we’d ordered (a common problem in lots of restaurants actually – I don’t know why they struggle with it so much!) and when they bought it (in a jug) they poured one glass for one person and walked off again (with the jug). When we managed to get their attention again we had to clarify that we wanted it for the table (as we’d asked), and were told that they couldn’t leave the jug (no idea why – we saw them leave a jug on another table) but off he went to get more glasses for us all which took a while again and he poured us all individual glasses. Again, all quite entertaining in some ways but also annoying and thirst inducing.

On the positive side, both the white and red wines that we had were very nice – the meal took so long that we ended up ordering more over the course of the evening but at least they were enjoyable.

Also on the plus side, the poppadums’ and pickles (which to be fair arrived very quickly – well before any drinks though) were very nice and the starters when they arrived were also generally pretty good.

The mains were a mixed bag, they were all different dishes from the chef specials, a mix of chicken and lamb dishes.
A couple of the dishes were fairly nice but one was just watery and a bit tasteless, and one of the others tasted somehow a bit stale. Overall a bit disappointing. There are far better curries to be had around Stafford.

There were some touches that could have elevated things such as a nice unexpected sorbet between courses and and small sweet yoghurt thing after the meal, but these were a missed opportunity as they were pretty much just plonked on the table in front of us with no explanation of what they were – it’s like they’ve seen programmes on TV about fine dining restaurants so they’ve tried to emulate it but they’ve never actually been to one or understood the things that make the difference.

In isolation none of the things that weren’t so good would have been terrible, some of it was entertaining, but all combined overall it didn’t make for great experience.

If they take the time to work on things and train their staff better then maybe one day we’ll return as there was promise, but for now I certainly wouldn’t rush to go back as there are far better places in the area with massively better service and far more consistent and superior quality food.

We booked, then read the reviews and nearly cancelled. So glad we didn’t. Food and service both amazing. We will definitely be back and highly recommend.
