"Popped in on the way back from a weekend with friends. Lovely place, we were dressed very scruffy but had no judgement, very unplanned stop for us. The food and service was fantastic. No complaints."

"Situated on the A24 Horsham Road in Mid Holmwood Dorking, this welcoming and well presented Indian restaurant offers take out and dining in with on site parking.
With fantastic service and extremely friendly staff along with quality food and good portion sizes, our visit here was very pleasant.
The beer was cold (Kingfisher), the port was strong, the wine was a decent pour and the setting was just right for our group of 7.
Accommodating our visit was much appreciated and we'll definitely be coming back again when we're next in the area!!!"

THE 15 BEST Restaurants in Dorking, Surrey

We lived in South Holmewood for many years and Red Chilli was our go-to Indian Restaurant - food always good regardless of takeaway or sit in. Vegetarian options: No opinion, I'm not vegetarian. Parking: Plenty of it.

Best Indian, Chinese and Thai restaurants in Surrey ~ where to eat out

I recently spied an advertisement on a billboard in Dorking that read: 'Red Chilli - the best restaurant in Surrey'. Hmm, a claim that should be investigated, I thought.
