Love it, never had a bad meal and buying you're own wine brings the cost of the meal down. More in style to the traditional Indian restauant than the other two, .
Menu is good, deliveries are prompt and service is good.
Garlic chicken is nice if you are not planning to see anyone for a few days.
I had heard that the kitchen is small though and it's possible that the food is actually cooked in one of the sister restaurants and brought in. Does anyone know if that is true?

I've eaten there twice.
The food was really lovely, great flavours and it wasn't swimming in grease.
I'd recommend it.
Why don't you ask them Malc?

Food is good (IMO, of course!) - above average but not brilliant. It's reasonably priced though, so reasonable VFM.
BYO beer/wine is a *very* big positive. I consider the prices some restaurants charge for drinks to be extortionate - I'm going to a restaurant to eat and don't mind paying for stuff I can't/won't cook at home. But £3 for a bottle of beer that costs £1 at Tesco? I think not!
Overall very good VFM - go there!

i've eaten there about half a dozen times now- IMO its good, its about right value for money wise, can be quiet during a weekenight which does give the place no soul or atmosphere, but the food is good, and its local to me
the sunday buffet is limited and again the place can be dead quiet.... but if you like the classics such as chichen tikka masala and bhaji's and similar you can have a good feed on a sunday for a tenner or so !

I went in there with a friend for a review once. I was
very impressed with the vegetarian selection. It's one
of the better Indian restaurants I've been to, although
my personal favourite is one in Ilford.

Best curry house in the village by far!! Especially if you are a fan of the hotter curries!! Not just loads of chilli powder but really nice spices with some great flavour!

Decided to phone up and try a delivery on Saturday night on the recommendation of those above - but they were too busy so collected anyway. It was very good, the Dhansak wasn't quite as good as the Tripti but I tried a Mirch Massalla Chicken (spiced up to vin da loo strength) and was very very tasty.
Usually only use the Tripti as that has thick sauces and best chicken. Only downside with them is that each year they send a christmas card to me and an ex rather than me and the wife!!

Is it true that it's closing?

What's closing - Tripti or Sreethi?
I would have thought you were referring to Sreethi, as I think I heard a rumour on this site that the lease was up for sale.
It's a shame if it does close, but it was a bit daft to open a 3rd Indian restaurant in a place a small as CStP, especially when the other two are good so they'd have a lot to compete with. Somebody didn't do their market research, ha ha!
