Chilli Flakes Indian brings a broad dine-in menu to Mount Pleasant, backed by reservations as well as pickup and delivery. Its structure encourages a traditional shared meal: begin with snacks, add dishes from the tandoor, then pair curries with rice or bread. The range is large enough for a mixed table to follow different routes, from an entirely vegetarian spread to one centred on grilled meats, seafood and slow-cooked sauces.
Vegetarian starters receive more attention than a token samosa. Onion bhaji, paneer pakora and gobhi chilli sit alongside tandoori mushroom and paneer, while vada pav introduces a street-food style option. For meat and seafood, the clay-oven selection includes tandoori chicken, creamy malai kebab, garlic and haryali chicken kebabs, fish tikka, garlic prawns and lamb cutlets. Mixed platters help groups sample across those styles.
The curry list moves between well-known favourites and more distinctive combinations. Dal makhani and aloo gobhi anchor the vegetable side, supported by several paneer dishes and mushroom Madras. Butter chicken and mango chicken offer contrasting richness and sweetness, while lamb appears in preparations such as Nawabi, Handi and Posht as well as familiar korma, Madras and vindaloo styles. That depth lets diners choose both protein and sauce character rather than defaulting to one house formula.
Rice, bread and Indo-Chinese dishes make the menu especially flexible for sharing. Biryanis cover vegetable, paneer, chicken, lamb, beef and prawn versions, and the bread section offers plenty of ways to accompany a curry. Indo-Chinese starters and mains add sharper, wok-led flavours to the table. Together with online ordering and dine-in service, that variety works for anything from a quick local meal to a larger group selecting several contrasting dishes.
