Always lovely food at Indian Moments
Always lovely food at Indian Moments, Harlow. I eat in more often than takeaways, but the chefs definitely know what they're doing.

Dear Sarah,
Thank you for your kind feedback. We’re really pleased to hear you enjoyed the food, fast delivery, and friendly service. Thanks for ordering through our platform and for taking the time to share your experience.
When I went to collect, over the period between Xmas and New Year the restaurant was closed.
When I went to collect the restaurant was closed (over the holiday period) so outlets presumably need to be better trained in the use of the chefonline website (I presume that when they know they'll not be open they can update that fact on the chefonline website).

Ordered on line for New Years Eve supper
Ordered on line for a surprise 30 minutes wait for pick up, arrived to pick up and had to wait a further 50 minutes
Got home to find missing garlic nam bread. Not a deal breaker as the food supplied not as good as normal.
A little disappointed but it was NY eve so here’s to a return to normal service in 2026

Thank you for sharing your feedback.
We’re very sorry to hear about the long wait on New Year’s Eve and that the food did not meet expectations. We understand how disappointing this can be during a busy period.
For clarity, the order was placed as cash on collection and did not include a garlic naan. As a food ordering platform, we’ve shared your comments with the restaurant so they can review the service and waiting times.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Delivery was quite late half an hour after the time that was stated the food wasn’t the best. I’ve had better.
