Nestled in the heart of Eltham, the Village Eat Inn is a delightful haven for Indian cuisine lovers. Customers consistently rave about the restaurant's unpretentious charm and exceptional food quality. Peter Moullet touts it as a "brilliant" spot where dishes arrive promptly, paired with friendly service that enhances the overall dining experience. The ambience strikes a harmonious balance reminiscent of a cozy French bistro.

Dinings are richly flavored, with spices perfectly balanced, as highlighted by Akash Stha's enjoyable recollection of his meal. Vegetarians are well-catered for, ensuring that every guest can find a suitable dish. Bub GD praises the personalized attention from the staff, transforming a meal into a flavourful experience shared among family and friends.

While many choose to indulge in the takeaway offerings—such as Daniel Quantrell, who asserts it as the finest South Asian takeaway available—others, like Laura Hernández Pérez, celebrate the restaurant's atmosphere and the attentive service provided by Nilav. Her glowing praise illustrates the impact of genuine hospitality on the overall dining experience, making a visit memorable. In summary, Village Eat Inn is a must-visit for its exceptional food and warm ambiance, embodying the spirit of true Indian hospitality.

Brilliant unpretentious restaurant that delights. The food is amazing, it arrived promptly, the service is good and friendly. The decor is a bit like a french bistro. Value for money is excellent. I highly recommend it.

Enjoyed Indian food after a long time. The spices were done right and the ambience was also great. Plus the service provided was generous. Will definately visit again.

THE BEST Indian food in the area. Absolutely lovely people, friendly personal service with amazing attention to detail and excellent flavours. Great options for vegans too. Always order when I have friends and family coming over, everyone loves it. Thank you Village Eat Inn ...

We have only ever used their take away services so cannot comment on the atmosphere, however this is by far the best south Asian takeaway we have experienced. We will not order such takeaways from anywhere else. The food is spectacular and we have tried most dishes they have. The delivery is quick and most of all they have managed to keep the prices low despite what other establishments have done.

My 5 stars don't reflect how delicious the food was (literally, I cannot think of a time I had such an incredibly tasty Indian food, even if I adore it), how cosy the atmosphere was and, especially, how wonderful, friendly, and attentive Nilav was with us. I am finding it difficult not to sound over exagerated, but honestly, he was simply a great joy to be around, with a huge smile and kind words which made the experience even more unique an unforgettable. My borther in law had just arrived from a long flight before stepping home, and I feel really thankful for the great service he (and all of us) received considering his tiredness. Overall, I cannot recommend it enough, and we will definitely be back - hopefully, with Nilav around :)

This place is amazing. The staff are so friendly and attentive. The food is absolutely delicious. The lamb chops as a starter or main is always a treat, full of spices and tender. You can tho wrong with any of the dishes. We love coming back every time!

Love this place. We discovered it on uber eats during the pandemic and it became one of favourite take out options when we wanted a treat. We decided to go to the restaurant recently to give it a try and it was just as good. Delicious, varied flavours, everything we've ever ordered has been amazing. The staff are also very friendly and it has a nice atmosphere.
