Went here last Sat night and had a fantastic meal there. The portion sizes are large, and the nan bread was like a dust bin lid so large all for a reasonable price Down side website says opens at 5.30pm but when arrived at 6pm was still shut Overall great evening with fantastic food

Great restaurant, albeit a little dated. But what it might lack in decor, it makes up for it with lovely food at a great price. Friendly and helpful staff (they opened 30 minutes early for us). Good selection of vegetarian options - the Balti Bombay Potato was amazing. It's not licensed but wasn't an issue for us.

Absolute joke!!! 3 hours and counting waiting for food. No way to contact them because they have clearly took the phone off the hook. Just keeps saying user busy! If unable to deliver or have delayed times should have informed us when ordering or told us we were unable to order. Really am quite annoyed and will never be ordering from this dump again.

Had chicken tikka masala. The flavour was passable, but the chicken was dry, and it was far too oily and salty. I’m not too keen on the the amount of food colouring that has clearly been used in the curry and in the (multi-coloured) rice - seems to me very much like a cheap gimmick used to make up for a lack of quality. This is in no way authentic Indian food, and is most definitely not healthy nor wholesome. The garlic naan was quite nice, although much of it was burnt and bitter.

I was pleasantly surprised. After reading reviews I thought I'd try it out. It doesn't look much but on arrival we were quickly shown to our table. Poppadoms were brought out to us without having to ask. A few minutes later the menu was given to us and we ordered our drinks. The food quickly arrived and it was lovely. Very tasty, a generous portion and naan was great too. Staff were really nice, laid back and made you feel comfortable which gave a good atmosphere. Toilets are available upstairs. Would definitely hope to return and would recommend

Great secret place, tho I could see it not being everyone's cut of tea. Nice little preset menu which is basically Balti 3 different ways, chicken, lamb or mixed veg. With either N'bread or rice as well as a beer or house wine, icecream or coffee. 5.99! Great to either start the night or end the night. Not the most glamorous of places and I didn't visit the loos so I have no idea what they are like but the place was rammed so that must count for s'thing. The owner was really friendly and made everyone feel welcome. We went in a party of 3 generations and there was something for everyone. We will be going back soon.

Place was packed yet he kept his cool under pressure and every table got their food in a timely manner. 5 Stars each and every time we visit. Thinking of a curry/Balti you must visit here if tasty food is the main reason you dine out. Keep up the good work ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have deleted my last review because maybe it was a little harsh. This place has been running for years. It is open to the early hours and is their manly to get some food after a night out. It is not somewhere you would take the Mrs for a romantic meal. The ceiling has damp stains over it and the wall paper is patchy but again it's not a place to would pay £100s for a meal. What you see is what you get. I did not personally order food there but when someone you are with orders a garlic cheese nan you have got to give it a try. The food tasted alright but that could be because of the Vodka.

My wife and I went out after a busy day with the grandson. As always, the waiter brought crisp poppadoms and chutnies, then took our order. The food is always freshly cooked and the salad freshly prepared. Generous, sizzling hot korma and extremely generous tandoori mixed grill with a garlic nan and vegetable rice. It is a down-to-earth, friendly restaurant. A wide range of people obviously feel at home here.

Me and my boyfriend come here most weeks normally on a Saturday which is the busiest day and we can't say anything bad about the place. Food may take a little time to come out on Saturdays but it's worth the wait! Mushroom korma is probably the best korma I've had. Highly recommended. Food is great and extremely cheap, 3 course meal for 2 of us is always under 20 pound including drinks. Can't go wrong. Yaz and the lazy with blonde hair are always welcoming and funny.

I have been to alessi at least 20 times over the last couple of years and have always enjoyed the food and service with no complaints. Unfortunately the same could not be said for the last recent visit on Saturday 2 November. This was a family visit for my mums birthday. I had booked via WhatsApp and all been agreed. However when entering, it became clear that they had messed the bookings up and we were not showing on the table plans. I was told that we would have to wait 20-30 minutes whilst they put a couple of tables together. I would not have minded this too much, however was given no apology, and was made to feel like their mistake was mine. When taken to our table, it was clearly just put together, right by the front door and bar and not great. At the end of the night I approached front of house to give them my views, I was not happy with the service tonight. At this point I received an apology, shame it took so long to get one. Overall, the experience was not good, and given the amount of money that was spent, and the poor service received, some free poppadoms just didn’t cut it.

Stumbled on this restaurant in trying to find somewhere to sit down and eat in Stoke which is not easy. Despite suddenly realising we're in a buffet situation was very pleasantly surprised and excellent variety of dishes, with plenty of salad supports and healthy options. Very good service too.
