One of the best if not the best curries we have ever had. We love pathia and it was perfection, the lamb was so tender you didn't need a knife to cut it and the chicken tikka katmandu had a lovely heat to it. All the supporting dishes were perfect too from the poppadoms and pickles, the vegetable pakora, pilau rice and garlic and coriander nan, nothing could be faulted. The atmosphere and decor all added to make this a memorable meal. I just wish we lived closer.

Visited for a curry on a blustery Wednesday night. We were the only ones for about 5 mins and then some other customers came in. We had a lovely booth - it felt cosy. We managed popadoms, starters and main courses all of which were delicious. Had to have some of the main course wrapped up as a takeaway as I couldn’t finish it all. The young lad who looked after us was lovely, chatty, attentive - a real asset to the restaurant.

We had a takeaway delivery on Saturday night. Ordered at 6.45 for an 8.00 delivery. Food arrived on time, hot, was very fresh and tasted amazing. Just what you want from a takeaway.

I absolutely 💯 recommended this place. I went to celebrate my birthday with friends. Stacey member of staff her customer services and customer care was absolutely perfect what a pleasure it was to have this. Normally, you rushed out the door, but last night, it was so calm the food I couldn't fault in anyway what so ever. So guys, if u looking for a lovely restaurant with lovely staff, this is definitely the place not to mention the toffee pudding with a candle on and staff sing happy birthday to make your day that extra special beautiful place

We are frequent visitors and can not recommend Takdir enough. Always lovely food, but the atmosphere and attentive staff are what makes this place brilliant. We celebrated my daughters 25th birthday here and only mentioned once. but they brought a slice of cake and a candle with her name written on. It's the little things that matter, and they really made it special. Thank you!

This is a great restaurant with friendly and efficient service. The food is very good and the chef even produced a dish not on the menu. A naan bread straight from the tandoor oven is a must. The banquet menu is worth a look (Sun-Thur) as it definitely works out cheaper if you are hungry.

We called in on a Saturday evening in November hoping there would be a table for 2. The restaurant was very busy, but fortunately for us they squeezed us into a table near the bar. The food was excellent, plenty of choice and good sized portions. I love spicy food so I was spoiled for choice, however, my wife is not a big fan of very spicy food so struggles for choice at most restaurants. The team were more than happy to accommodate by making her a vegetable Jalfrezi in a milder version than usual, which she loved. The staff were brilliant, attentive and very friendly, nothing was too much trouble. I'm not surprised it was so busy if this is the normal standard, we will certainly be back, it's just a shame it's not on our doorstep.

Please don't order anything from this place. I order Mixed Grilled which was supposed to be sheik kabab, tandoori chicken and chicken peaces but its been delivered in same bag mix with Tandoori flavours so everything tatse Tandoori. Also ordered Murgh Puree and they have folded the puree in the same curry sauce which makes the puree soaked in the oil of curry. When called to speak Manager at the restaurant he said that's how we do and you can leave a review because we have many customers so your review doesn't effects us. I request customers not to order from here so they can treat customers as they should be. I have posted the pics too so you can see what I mean. Don't want to leave even 1 star for this service

Food quite expensive for what it was. The lamb in my bhuna was lovely and tender, but unfortunately it wasn’t seasoned well and had little taste. My partner had a chicken madras and again it had no real flavour and was fat too mild for a madras. A shame as not the cheapest place!

I can't comment on the food because we never got to try it. They cancelled our order because they decided we needed rice even though we didn't order it - really?? Deciding what I personally want to eat? Who tf does that?Called to receive what can only be described as the attitude of a three-toed sloth; did not care for us at all and couldn't be bothered to just make the food we wanted. Offered no help of a refund - apparently "Ubereats will deal with it". Just so, so disappointing.

This REVIEW has been a long time coming...Our family - at times including our extended family for special occasions - have continued to choose Takdir as our CHOICE Indian takeaway and restaurant. The food - over the weeks, months and years- has been consistently delicious fuelling fantastic family feasts and making fond memories with loved ones.The portions are extremely generous (especially the takeout set-menu banquet) which is matched by the highest hospitality (including when we are sit-in guests).The Team (including it's management) are genuine, personable, polite with a cheerful demeanour throughout our families many 'Takdir'.This review is a culmination of the last 10 years of living in Whitley Bay - a TRUE 5 stars

Perfect! I used to spent a lot of time at Takdir many years ago at the old premises when I was young and single. The lovely service is still the same, they are so friendly, efficient and helpful. I made a mistake and booked for the wrong night, despite being fully booked on a Saturday night they managed to slot us in. Amazing Covid one way system, constant cleaning, disposable menus and sanitizer. Really well organised. Food was perfect, good delay between courses and super efficient. Loved the lamb Dhansak. Needed to be rolled out after ha. The young girl looking after us was soooo helpful, definitely made for a career in hospitality.

Okay, I've reviewed the Takdir previously but, given that we've just spent a week in the NE and we had no idea whether the Takdir would be open (fully or just for take-aways) due to Covid-19, we had to re-visit our favourite Indian restaurant in the area.We shouldn't have worried. It was fully open and so popular that we had to book a table in advance. The interior was well laid out to ensure a degree of social distancing. The place was spotlessly clean and the food was excellent.Service was great (special mention is deserved for Chloe who was helpful and attentive when we needed something.). We genuinely enjoyed it so much, we visited three times during our six night stay in Whitley Bay.

My self and partner popped into the Takdir on a busy sunday evening for a takeaway. We were met as always by the amazingly helpful staff and were quickly given a drink while we waited in the beautiful bar area. I ordered the tandoori mixed grill and my partner had the lamb roganjosh. My partner had mentioned to the waiter that we were celebrating my birthday and upon reciving our food the manager very kindly informed us that they had added some tandoori lamb chops and spicey garlic chips all free of charge to accompany the meal. And I must say all the food we had was exceptional as was the customer service that we recieved. In my opinion the Takdir is the best Indian restaurant in the Norht East and i can not recommend it enough. Well done guys

absolutely fantastic service from the off, the value for the quality of food you get is absolutely outstanding, from the condiment tray to the main, which would feed 2 people, is a different class to anywhere in the area. The difference in this place compared to takeaways that I thought were nice is actually shocking. You can tell the chef and the cooks take pride in the food they make, to have this top quality food pitch in an area where there's alot of restaurants who claim to be the best, this is THE BEST. could go on and on about this restaurant, from the set out and atmosphere, to the food but find out for yourself...

Meal was ok. Customer service disgusting, talking at us and not to us. Not paying attention to us. Practically Throwing the meals down on table, we had to swap over meals because he “served” us wrong cause he didn’t listen or care. The “Pepsi” was AWFUL and I couldn’t drink it. It just wasn’t a friendly service , you’d think they’d be great ful for the custom seeing as there’s LOADS more curry houses that we could have gone to but we choose this one, which we won’t be doing again..... I hear Shikara is good? I mean it’s only up the road too. Friendly customer service when you are competing with several other curry houses is key. There’s nothing special about takdir.

We hadnt booked but was first through the door at 5.30 and told would need table back by 7pm- not a problem as show was 7.30pm. We ordered drinks and our meals and very shortly afterwards they arrived-great no problem there.... However our food came in such quick succession it took longer to finish our drinks than to eat!! Never felt so rushed and they werent that busy to warrant the rushing. Girls serving were lovely but guy on front desk wasnt too friendly. Whilst the food was nice it was quite over priced..

The food was the best we've ever had there, it was amazing. The service was fab, anything we asked for drinks, dips etc were over within seconds.

I was told I'd be going to the Takdir by a friend who was treating me to a surprise birthday meal. The place looked beautiful inside and very cosy. Was asked where we'd like to sit and found a comfy booth. Staff were fantastic and so friendly. They'd been told that it was being booked for a 60th birthday surprise and as the final course was being served the staff brought over a slice of chocolate mud cake with a firework in and they all sang happy birthday. Very nice end to a great night. The food was terrific and can't wait to go back again.

Have walked past a few times when we've been visiting and last night decided to book a table. Very pleased with the service and the food. The menu was a little different from others but certainly as good if not better and the price was comparable. Will definitely book again the next time we come up here

Visited this restaurant now on a couple of occasions with work colleagues and found it to be excellent value for money. Lovely surroundings and really nice food as well, worth a visit when in the area.

On a recent Sunday afternoon prior to a visit to the nearby Whitley Bay Playhouse we opted to the evening Shonda menu which offers a nice choice of 1-3 courses and essentially a start, any curry and desert options. One of us opted for onion bhaji and the other the tandoori mixed grill. Both arrived swiftly and were decent portions and very nice.

Namaste has moved to Royal Quays outlet. No longer in Whitley Bay! Not a lot more to say but need to write more before it can be accepted by TripAdviser
