Alishaan Indian Bistro in Leeds

30+ of us there this evening. Good food & service, not quite sure about the "In your dreams" response to "I'm sure I know you from somewhere" remark, but there you go. Different strokes & all that.

Very nice and tasty food. Great value for the early bird menu.

Absolutely lovely experience the service was great, the food amazing and we will definitely be back, onion bhaji although large they were very tasty and crispy not stodgy like some, loved the Lamb Karahi, one thing I really liked was the amazing light fluffy chapatis superb. Service was great and the staff should take a bow. Thsnkyou.

Great food stylish interior clean and tidy friendly staff

Great food. Nice place, good value

Absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Felt embarrassed as we couldn't manage all the food. Will definitely 💯 be going back.

Brilliant little gem. Serving up really tasty curries. Great vegetarian and meat options and very large portions.

Lovely food, service and atmosphere. All the staff were friendly and attentive and the portion sizes were huge. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Staff were quite rude. We had a booked table for 7 but upon arrival no table was available. Once we had gotten a table we were rushed into ordering. I asked for a chicken jalfrezi but I requested it to be mild in heat. The waiter abruptly told me that the dish was already mild and that no changes were needed (I've had this dish a hundred times over and it's usually served as a spicy dish. I don't dislike hot dishes but on this occasion I fancied something mild). When the dish was served, the food was so hot that it was painful to eat. I didn't end up finishing the meal. My friend also said that his dish was unusually spicy. Maybe other people will have a better experience than me but I don't think I'll return.

Visited again tonight for my birthday and as excellent as our first visit. Our new favourite for curry - clean, welcoming, great service and fabulous food. Very reasonable too and huge portions.

Starters were very good, we had the mixed starter to share which included masala fish. Mains were good as well. Keema bhuna and special biryani. The Biryani was a huge portion, we took half of it home 😋 Would go again. Was quiet when we went Monday evening, 7 'ish. We had £10 off voucher which was a flyer posted through. £10 off if you spent £40. They advertised an early bird 4 course menu, can't remember exactly how much that was and didn't say on the flyer what was included. The early bird said CASH only on the flyer 🤭🤭🤭

Given containers to pack our own food in after the meal, that’s a first for me.

Top class meal brilliant Martin and Phil

Visited on a Sunday evening. Very busy with dine in and takeaway orders. Food was delicious and loads of it.

Ordered takeaway from this place, all the waiters/bar staff were lovely. Food was reasonably priced, good vegetarian options. The curry was absolutely lovely and the chapatis were to soft and fresh, would highly recommend.

A cracking do thxs . delivered on time and hot and tasty guy on phone very helpful . will be using them again H ..............................................................................................................................................................................................

Ordered butter chicken with garlic naan and it was the worst dish i ever tasted, The garlic was falling apart i didn’t even taste any garlic in the naan. Chicken butter was very sweet and basic with no taste.

Amazing customer service litlleSid was an amazing host and left a real warm impression on us this will be our new usual place thank you so much to all the staff great atmosphere

Just been first time and wow portion sizes amazing had 2 bring home prices excellent

First time in Alishaan and won't be out last! Very friendly, welcoming staff. Ordered from the "Early Bird" menu and let me say they gave Very generous portions with lots of flavours. (Had to box my main boxed up to take away). Very impressed.

Love the new desert menu. Have always loved the classic starter and main course menu. Friendly and professional service. Thanks guys, we are so happy to have you in the village.

Ordered food via their website for delivery to Morley shortly after opening time on Friday evening. Food was delivered within 45mins (heads up it was cash only) and was well packaged and still hot. Happy to have a new local curry house that's good value for money - looking forward to trying more dishes next time!

Excellent food and service with a good atmosphere

First visit to this fantastic restaurant, the food and value for money was astounding. Surperb polite service, where nothing was too much. Hugely recommend, and will be monthly visitors for sure. Lovely experience xx

Excellent food and friendly atmosphere 👌, great value for money

Normally really nice but called off the other night on my way home from work and was assured what I chose were really nice but we were very disappointed it were very watery running off the plate too hot and tasteless. Which is a shame because that's first time I haven't enjoyed there curry's. Must admit its put me off abit.

Ordered takeout for a birthday meal, collected myself for a 10% discount. Ready on time, family feel to the restaurant. Not eaten from here for some time but quality every bit as good as I remember. Great flavour in our food, meat tender. Biryani excellent, mushroom rice really tasty. Chicken Venti smooth. I recommend.

Great curries, banging starter. Friendly staff. Good atmosphere with an a tentative service. We’ll definitely be back.

A fabulous restaurant serving delicious food in lovely surroundings. The set menu is such good value for money and I can't wait until we go again. They were also kind enough to donate some food etc to a school event, please go and support this restaurant not only because it's brilliant but because they show great community spirit.

Excellent tasty food & welcome the food has been outstanding on the two occasions we have eaten here. The waiters also explain the menu and create dishes based on your taste. I would highly recommend eating here if you love Indian food.

I visited with family last night. All our dishes were superb, as usual.

The dishes we had last night was, as usual, excellent. The chicken biryani, and spicy chicken naga were especially good.

Absolutely AMAZING food, such kind staff and always helpful. We will never get our Indian food from anywhere else! Thanks so much for the authentic and delicious food!

Large family celebration birthday where order was totally wrong leaving 3 members of our party not eating. Maybe perfect if a couple or 4 people but wouldn’t recommend for a large group.

First time here and had a takeaway. The food was ace but very let down by the so called chappatis, they were just like giant poppadoms. After a min or so they were rick hard and un eatable. So next time will order food but no chappatis.

amazing place ,our go to restaurant , love this place, everyone is amazing, food fantastic, service and staff so friendly

Always lovely food, the service is second to none and very welcoming. Keep doing what you’re doing you’re all amazing!!

Well that was one of the best curry’s I’ve had. Service spot on; v attentive but the food was heaven. Will definitely be going back

It is really good the best food ever

Little Sid and the food, excellent.

No better restaurant about.food fantastic, staff brilliant

Lovely food. Went on a Sunday evening so wasn't busy. Will go again.

Takeaway very good n quick service.

Cannot praise this restaurant highly enough, that's why I visit three time a week at least. Excellent surroundings, first class food and the staff are fun. I travel extensively and the food here certainly reminds me of my travels in India and Bangladesh. Would I recommend Alishaans? Too right I would. 👌

This place is the best Indian restaurant in the whole area, not just Gildersome. Fresh food cooked to your liking, the will even make special dished upon request, cannot fault a single thing. Staff are fun but attentive, food is served in very generous portions (you can take home what you don't eat). Well priced for the experience you get and they have a good selection of wines. beers and spirits. One of the highlights is the bread they serve, no grey wash leathers here, just large, fresh breads (chapatis, roti or naan) that accompany great food. Highly recommended.

The food is spot on made to feel welcome will be going back waiters great very clean restaurant very well decorated top place

Absolutely fantastic food, great service and fantastic value for money compared to London loved it 💙💛💙💛

Came after reading the reviews . Wow portions were very big and all the meals were delicious. I would recommend this restaurant highly.

Love this place ..don't always need to book . Early bird menu .food is fab .also do a takeaway service.ample parking outside .nice team

Ordered a take away from here. Had to wait ages for it and then when I got it home it was the wrong order so I had to go back. Really disappointing service.

We have dined here once a week for many years and had over 100 take outs in between too! Always impeccable service and food. Can not do enough for you! Ali and his team are always consistent, thats why i can 110% recommend this restaurant with all my heart! If you love indian food try Alishaans indian bistro and bar, promise you, you will not be disapointed. Andy & Elaine

Great food only had take out but not been disappointed with anything we've had.

Incredible experience. Quality staff with a great sense of humour. Food was amazing and will do anything on the menu as vegetarian. They should be Michelin star ⭐

Excellent restaurant, staff are very friendly and have an amazing sense of humour. The food is incredible, and will do anything on the menu as vegetarian. They should have a Michelin star for their top quality service and for the super tasty food. Thank you.

Lovely meal as always at Alishanns, ask for it how you like it and they are happy to help. We ate here on a Sunday night with 2 kids and some of our family. Clean, tidy and nice atmosphere. We like to go for special occasions as it feels like a lovely treat!

Gorgeous food. Really nice restaurant. Staff were friendly. Got the mixed grill. Great variety of freshly cooked meats with rice and chicken pea curry

Fabulous evening tonight celebrating my son’s birthday. Food was so delicious and the portions were huge. Fantastic service from the staff, very welcoming and friendly.

Amazing family run restaurant and takeaway. Always made to feel welcome. Food is amazing, always freshly cooked to order. Will change the recipe to your tastes. Staff are always welcoming and have chat. Love this place!!!

Amazing as always , our favourite place, food great, service is great , always a welcome place to eat

They was 22 of us for a birthday on the surface everything was ok but it's definitely not bistro, food was decent up until one of our guests found a caterpillar in their food which put the rest of us off so we didn't eat the rest of our. The bill was over 550 pound with only 40 pounds knocked off there was a few words exchanged at the end but it will sorted I wouldn't be returning at all but the atmosphere before that was actually okay

Tasty food and friendly service at the right price. Deserve to succeed. Been eating here for a while now. Haven’t had a bad meal. Must bring friends over to try.

Table of 20, £600 spent and my friend had an actual caterpillar in their food. Absolutely disgusting! And they made us pay the whole bill too👎🏻

My partner found a poisonous species of caterpillar (Cinnabar Moth) in her food. The restaurant then refused to let the rest of our party leave the building after they added £90 on to the bill and couldn’t explain what the extra money was for.

Sounds mad !, but we had a table of 20 and found caterpillar in food and was still made to pay a £600 bill! Wouldn’t recommend at all !

Been going with friends and family over last the few months...... having tried Indian cousin all over the country, I must say this is far the best I have had. Staff are friendly, bright vibrant atmosphere and the food is absolutely amazing. Highly recommended it to everyone.

We came here for my husband’s birthday as the first place we tried were fully booked and it turns out we were glad!! This place was lovely - from the minute we walked in the staff were friendly and attentive, it was clean and tidy...

Quality food, large portions and speedy service, I honestly cannot fault the restaurant and people. Ali also makes regular trips out of the kitchen to speak with people, making sure all is good and how he can make things even better. Eating out how it...

Me and my partner have been coming here for the past couple of months for take away and also eat in together and with family and it is a lovely restaurant with friendly workers and beautiful food! So

What an amazing find a little gem in the heart of Gildersome. Visiting friends and decided to give Alishaan a try so glad we did we all enjoyed our meal and taking advantage of the early bird offer of four courses for £15.95 a head...

I've been coming to this restaurant for quite a while and in my opinion it's the best Indian bistro by a country mile.....everything from the food to the service is 5 star...staff amazing....food amazing....portion sizes are nothing like ive had before....atmosphere amazing..would highly recommend to anyone who loves Indian food....

10/10 took the mrs and kids for a birthday party amazing one of the best curry house ever

This is by far the best Indian restaurant I’ve eaten at in a long time! The service was fantastic, staff couldn’t do enough for us. The food was beautiful - definitely the best I’ve had in Leeds and all for a great price. Thank you again, we’ll be back soon

Tried here for the first time based on reviews and didn't disappoint. Service was 2nd to none. Food was delicious portion sizes huge I couldn't finish mine. The bhajis are the best trust me you can share this starter.

Two great dishes tonight, a mushroom & paneer balti and a lamb Hasina (lovely mint taste). I always can tell a good curry by the effort of the pickle tray (6 choices!) It's a good solid curry restaurant!

Fabulous food, every dish was so tasty , great service , look forward to going again

Have driven past here so many times, but as it is set back, never really caught my eye. Now been twice in 2-weeks. Great curry, great banter with the staff and great prices. This is the start of many more visits, with both family and...

Polite, efficient delivery, food piping hot and delicious.will use alishaan again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Superb, collected a takeaway. Vegetarian dishes were great.

Beautiful food, attentive staff. Quality food and fresh. Bonus for it being on the doorstep, but well worth travelling for.

Unfortunately the waiter with the glasses had a really bad attitude. Unfortunately we has 2 much yogurt sauce then he had to be rude to my wife and it was the final STRAW.....the food was OK ish...but I will never go bk while the guy...

A honest review. The guy with the glasses who thinks it's OK to ask if my wife needs a straw cos she's ordered 2 much mint sauce what she's paying for? His attitude was horrible all night. Shame cos the food was nice won't ever go again and I wish the old staff was back. Sayin that some was OK...just get rid of the man with the attitude who wears glasses

Great food and service, fairly priced, will definitely come again, great to have a good Indian to eat in locally

My husband and I recently visited this restaurant, we didn't enjoy it whatsoever.. Food was tasteless, naan bread seemed to have been bought and reheated in the microwave.. Even service was horrible, the older waiter wearing glasses who took our order couldn't be bothered working and often checked his mobile phone in the middle of the restaurant.. We won't be back, and we don't recommend this restaurant at all..

Quiet when I ate there but food and service were good.

It would appear the food is quite good here should you manage to get any. Booked a table for 6.30 arrived with time to spare. Seating us was shambolic, showed another group to our table who didn't have a booking and arrived just after us....

Had a fab meal good portions helpful staff would recommend

After the recent refurb the Alishaan is really the best Indian restaurant in the area. Bhaji's are amazing, and the Chicken Tikka Balti really delivers. I've tried other places nearby, like Zoya, who give you smaller portions of worse food for more money. This place is well priced and does honest grub.

First time at this restaurant, absolutely lovely, we will return 😍

First visit tonight for birthday meal. Fantastic food, good size portions would highly recommend to anyone. Definitely be going back. Have come back on visit tonight was just has good has first time.

An excellent meal spoiled by noisy families. We went for what we thought would be a quiet meal. Wrong! We struggled to have a normal conversation at our table due to the groups on other tables shouting at each other even though they were sat...

We also get take out and have never sat in but lovely food.

Beautiful food and brilliant service. We use this place as a restaurant and delivery service. Food is always lovely and fresh, service is great and good value for money.

Best curry ever,well done guys .

Booked a table here 2 weeks before but it didn't mean anything to them when you arrived. Food average and staff rather off hand .will not visit again sadly.

Lovely food, pleasant staff,clean and tidy restaurant.

Alishaan is the best Indian food I have ever had. Amazing service. Staff are professional, friendly and very welcoming.

Lots of lovely food.Only negative is after 1 hour we had to vacate the table

We had a takeaway. The food was good but will have to try inside.

Totally love this place. Quality of food is very nice and has a very authentic flavour and taste. Nice service too🙂

Lovely food and plenty of it. Pleasant staff
