Wow. Booked for the Sunday buffet and was concerned that as a veggie I would probably just get a veg curry and some rice. Wow was I wrong. The Sunday buffet is not a buffet it's a banquet. I expected warming trays of various food that everyone dipped thier spoons into and piled their plates high. Wrong. There's a special menu of about 55 different dishes to choose from all included in the price. The portions are small but plenty and you can keep ordering until you are full. Plus there were some fantastic choices for vegetarians including lots of paneer which is my absolute favorite. So impressed. Every dish we ordered was exqusite. Freshly cooked and delicious. You bring your own alcohol which makes it affordable for a night out if you are on a budget. Soft drinks, puddings and poppadoms not included. That was the only negative. Poppadoms not included?? Very odd. Especially as we were encouraged to order them to start with. Er no. I am not going to fill up on poppadoms that are not included in the price, when I am doing the all inc buffet?? The service was slow but attentive and to be expected when everything is cooked freshly. Fabulous evening. Great value. Thank you!

We went here last night 19/8. Decorated really nice. Food was outstanding. The staff were really friendly and very polite. We are here on a short break, but cant praise it enough.

Most unimpressed. I do wish the younger generation of restaurant entrepreneurs (in this case of Bangladeshi heritage) would stop messing about with traditional recipes. The use of red food colour in this dish of Fish Marsala was just gross; see the photo. In addition it didn't taste of much, I can, and do, much better at home.

I have been a regular customer of Ajwa for a few years and this has been the best Indian restaurant in the area and the food was excellent IMHO. I ordered a chicken jalfrezi with a peshwari nan and a side bindi bhaji. The service was very polite and friendly, but the food was ordinary. There was way too much red sauce with the jalfrezi, which previously has been a relatively dry dish. Also the peshwari nan had a red paste in it, which I’ve never seen before. There didn’t seem to be much coconut, sultanas or almonds. I think the chefs have changed (were from table 8 in Wedmore). Probably won’t bother any more. Shame.

Great service, great food. Had lots of help in choosing the dishes we wanted and they were perfect. This is how service should be. This is how food should be.

Really nice food and service. Really enjoyed it. We loved the freshness of the food and also the wide choice. Staying in the area for the first time for a few days and this was our first meal out here. Not disappointed. Chap serving was really excellent too.

This prawn cocktail was an absolute treat—refreshing prawns in a tangy, creamy sauce. A great start to the meal!

The roast fish starter was a revelation - I heard a local order it when I was deciding, and loved it. Very good curry as well - (chicken Jalfrezi if I recall) - not afraid to be spicy. If I lived locally I would be here all the time. There's a wide menu and I would want to work my way through it! Yum.
