Alijee Spice Restaurant in Bradford - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We went for my birthday meal (nov 2023). I ordered lamb masala which was made with coconut. I do not like coconut at all and the taste makes me sick. I did point this out to the manager. We polite pointed out to him that we did not see coconut on the menu or have we never had a Masala tasted of coconut. His reply was rude and I felt a bit obnoxious. He just kept saying he had been making curries for 36 years . I feel the whole experience ruined my birthday meal out. Yes we did pay the full amount of the bill as he didnt even offer to compensate the meal. Which i did not eat. The portion size was also on the little side . the whole meal 2 drinks and 2 main meal no starter or pudding was £36 . We would not recommend going there to any one. On the plus side his daughter was polite and helpful.

Great restaurant, really friendly staff that were attentive and the food was brilliant & very tasty and reasonably priced.

We were in town the day before and don't often venture down Cavendish street. We noticed the restaurant and thought this looks new and a board outside with the offers on. ( see photo) My partner asked if I wanted to try it the following day ( a Sunday ) Stated 5 course for £11.95 . We normally go to the curry house not far from here. I called the Sunday to book a table for us for 6pm . Upon arrival ( we were slightly early ) I onoticed we were the only ones . This place does takeaway too. The waiter was pleasant and chatty. He asked if we were having the special which we told him yes. Pickle tray and popodoms ( 1 popodom each but large ) We had starters of onion baji and chicken tikka pieces . Everything was so fresh . The sauce that came with the onion Baji was in a jug and yellow in colour ( not seen anything like it before ) We ordered mains of chicken madras and I ordered a meat dansak but they brought me. Chicken one . Garlic naan and pilau rice . Portion size good though too much for me . I was stuffed after the starter . Throughout our meal the waiter kept checking everything was ok. We had drinks of 2 pints of lager and a pint of lemonade. Not sure where they get the 5 course from as I'd say only 3 unless they count the sides for the main as 1. Didn't bother us personally as we were full. People need to know about this place as couldn't believe we were the only ones there. We went up to pay the bill which came to just over £32 which was great value for money . I was given a rose which I thought was a lovely touch . Before booking I looked for reviews and as they weren't on tripadvisor I looked on a Keighley Facebook page and input the name and came across a fair few good comments . This place only opened in December 2022 . Give it a try you won't be disappointed. Help a local restaurant stay open .
