Cinnamons - South Oxfordshire

"This restaurant serves the best curry I have ever had. I come here every week to get takeout and have been coming since 2015 when I first moved to the village. My favorite dish is the chicken jacuti."

I couldn't help but think that Cinnamons could attract more customers, especially the construction workers living nearby at Wheatley Brookes University Campus, if they improved their food and service. Currently, the lack of positive word-of-mouth reviews from first-time customers is hurting their reputation. Without proper advertising, many locals may not even know about the restaurant, let alone be enticed to try it out. While I support local businesses, I believe that Cinnamons needs to put more effort into improving their offerings. The chicken pakora I received was unappetizing, resembling overcooked chicken dippers rather than traditional pakora. For the same amount of time and cost, I could have prepared a better alternative using frozen chicken dippers from the supermarket. I have attached photos as proof of my disappointment with the food. Overall, I'm unsure whether to feel sorry for Cinnamons or to hold them accountable for their lackluster standards. As a local establishment, they have the potential to attract more customers, but only if they prioritize quality and customer satisfaction.

I ordered the set meal for one at £21.95 which included a sheek kebab starter, Chicken jacuti main, plain naan, pilau rice, and a side of vegetable bhaji. The food was ready for collection in just 20 minutes, and I received a warm welcome when I arrived at the restaurant. The sheek kebab was delicious, especially with the mint yoghurt sauce. The chicken main was also flavorful and hot. Overall, the food was very tasty and I was impressed. I will definitely be returning to Cinnamon soon. Thank you!

Stopped at local service on the M42 and wanted somewhere for dinner. Googled best local restaurants and found this gem. Amazing service from arrival through to end really attentive and helpful staff. Food was extraordinary. I have lived in Birmingham for over 30 years THE place for Balti's! so have tried many Indian restaurants and this place is way up there for taste of the menu.

Seriously, go and buy a cinnamon stick and eat it. Simply terrible boil in the bag rubbish. Staff are great etc but food does not resemble what you ordered. Ghasl5.
