Food Ok. To sit and order food , you need to order a minimum of 20 pounds. While I was trying to take a seat , a waiter told me this. No where it was written. Treating a customer like this in a half empty restaurant is unethical. Won't go this restaurant again.

This place used to be so good, the food was always hot, perfectly spiced, decent portion sizes, it didn’t matter what day of the week it was or if it was eating in or a take away the food was excellent. What has happened? My food was cold, greasy, tasteless and massively expensive. This used to be the only Indian for me, sadly no more.

Food was ok. Staff were ok - did feel slightly like they were pushing us out of the restaurant at the end of our meal - taking away wine glasses for example. Atmosphere was ok pretty dingy restaurant.

Given how good this place used to be, we had high hopes but were sadly disappointed. Service was very good but the food was quite bland and stodgy.

This is Cheltenham’s best culinary secret. I’ve now tried several paneer dishes and each time I am surprised and delighted by the unique flavour of the sauce. Unlicensed and simple, the food is however high class (particularly if you like veggie food). Highly recommended.

STOP 🛑 🤚 Do not book if you are in a large group they can not cope, items missing when you ask for them they say no problem but don’t come back. Tried telling me it was my fault when I paid ? Food cold when arrived and portions very small. They also did not check who had not turned up and charged the missing people’s food on to the bill. If your looking for a better place try anywhere but here.

Haven't been for a few years and not as good as I remember. There were 14 of us and another couple of large parties. Parts of our orders were missing, food was barely warm, atmosphere was just too load (not necessarily restaurant's fault). Although it's bring your own booze you're not allowed to take your own soft drinks. £2.50 for a small coke. Won't be going back.

Was looking forward to our Christmas meal here but ended up very disappointed. Not one for writing bad reviews but thought this was just. Didn't actually get what I ordered and was served 4 at a time, group of 40 and that's not a problem but my food came in a little silver Ash tray sized dish with 3 little bits of chicken, one poppadom and a little triangle of nan bread not the garlic one I ordered. Did complain to the guy serving us but just got ignored. My kids ate more when they were 5 years old in a kids meal. Had to find somewhere on the way home to get something to eat. I'm only 11 stone so it's not like I eat a lot anyway but this was ridiculous. I will and freinds will avoid this premises all costs in the future just daylight robbery. No information on nut allergies at the table either, not that I have an issue but many do and it's serious. Not happy as you can see.

Not a great place for a relaxing dinner this time.. more like a madhouse.. a bedlam of noise from a group table with about 20 inconsiderate cackling people all trying to out-shout each other simultaneously, and another table with 4 shrieking women competing to be the loudest individual. The stark low ceilinged room without sound absorbing materials reflects and amplifies noise to deafening levels. We entered feeling quite relaxed but left with splitting headaches caused by this decibel onslaught. The managers should ensure that large noisy parties like this one are only accommodated if located in the upstairs room to show some respect for their other customers. We were assaulted by our experience at Balti Walla which is a great shame because the tandoori dishes with rice and naan that we ordered were top quality and the staff behaved impeccably. To escape the noise we wrapped the tikka and sashlik chicken and naan in napkins and ate them back at home, but we obligingly paid the £40 for this awful experience.

It's bring your own alcohol now, not bring your own drinks, just a heads up for any of you who've been going for years happily drinking your own drinks. Literally just alcohol. Every thing else you must buy. Seems a bit of a shame to penalise the driver of the group! The chap told us it's always been this, but it's the first time we've known.

Four of us regularly visit, typically on a Sunday as it is not so busy and we are flexible. The service is polite and friendly. It is clean and nicely decorated. The food has always been hot, and portions are fairly generous. Poppadoms usually fresh and hot. Prices reasonable and Sainsbury’s is two doors down for wine/beer. It can be busy (typically Friday and Saturday). A place where people linger which is nice if you are in, not nice if you are in a hurry (there are curry shops across the road and round the corner if you are) - a common dilemma.

Booked a table for 2 and attended 15 mins early We were told to wait and stood at the counter at the kitchen end, 4 other customers were in a similar position . We waited 30 mins then informed a table was available upstairs, after another 15 mins we left as there were about 50 young men having a good time and wife felt uncomfortable to say the least being the only female on that floor. We decided to leave, as we left I complained to a member of staff who didn't care/ too busy/ not interested etc, shocking. Moral of the story , avoid on Sat nights as really busy within this restaurant. Hoping owner will send me a £30 voucher towards next meal , but a tad unlikely!

Can’t believe this was our first visit and it definitely won’t be our last. Really impressed with the quality of food. We love Bhoomi on special occasions but we really enjoyed the food and atmosphere of a busy local restaurant on a Saturday night in January. The poppadoms were crispy and fresh and we loved all the accompaniments, chutneys, onions, raita. We had salmon and tikka starters. The salmon was cooked beautifully but would have preferred more flavour in the marinade. The Chicken tikka was tasty and cooked well. Naan and rice were excellent. Their version of butter chicken was really nice albeit just a tad too much coconut on a personal level. The chicken balti was the stand out the winner. The service was quick despite it being busy. We really enjoyed the atmosphere and byo is great especially after an expensive Xmas. Looking forward to our next visit already

At 8.15 I called to ask where my order was and they said they would call me back. 10mins later they phoned to say that they couldn't deliver because they didn't have enough staff.

Left my bag here and informed them by email and telephone. They said they’d keep it for me. It’s only been a few weeks and I’ve not been able to pop in because they only open in the evenings and I also had a family emergency to attend to. When I rang to collect it they told me they’d thrown it. Who would throw a bag away that belongs to someone else and when the customer has already informed the restaurant. Won’t be back here in a rush.

The restaurant was rammed and we sat upstairs on the bigger tables it's also bring your own alcohol. Some of the group bought soft drinks which we were told not to be left on the tables! I assume this is because the restaurant sells soft drinks. The curry was fine but I did find there was a lot of sauce and onions in the dish. There were no complaints from the group about the dishes in all a pleasant meal.

Baltiwala were super helpful when we had to organise a socially restricted bday event for my husband a couple of weeks ago. We were down from London and they went out of their way to make our visit to their restaurant easy and comfortable. Food style was altered to suit our needs. We had the whole 1st floor allocated to us for our guests. A waiter was allocated to us for the whole evening. And we were noisy! Let us decorate for the event and byob worked a treat. Thoroughly recommend for the food and support by Moomin and his team!! Thanks Baltiwala!

Massively disappointing experience. Busy Friday night, table of 8 people and no attempt to even try and encourage customers to wear face coverings when moving round the restaurant. I can’t understand their cavalier attitude given the size of the fines. We left after our starters due to the environment, such a shame. I’d avoid like the plague, excuse the pun.

Really disappointed to see a group of 8 rowdy people right at the front of the restaurant (although justified as two groups of 4 without social distancing. No asking customers to wear masks when moving around the restaurant. We highlighted our concern to the patrons - they kindly offered us a seat upstairs (where we couldn’t see the group of 8) but the damage was already done. Too many sacrifices this year. Sort it out Balti Walla - you’re our favourite Indian but we won’t be back after that!

The best thing about the meal was the poppadoms. If you enjoy overpriced microwaved curries then fill your boots but if you prefer a fresh hot and edible curry run away from this place as fast as you can. Meat was very dry and tough, sauce was extremely watery, thin and tasteless. Naan bread is served in a plastic container you’d expect to find in a children’s soft play area. Social distancing was poor and covid guidelines were not adhered too. Having worked in the industry for over 10 years I hate complaining but this was one of the worst restaurant experiences I’ve ever had and when we politely told the manager that it wasn’t good he was not interested. Poor customer service, poor food, stay away.

Con mucho, el curry más pobre que he comido en un restaurante. . . - Los 4 curry sabían a la misma salsa suave del tío Bens. . . tenía una extraña consistencia acuosa - El cordero estaba duro, el pollo estaba seco. - Cargando 4. 50 por un ramekin de salsa es una broma - Los 4 curry se sirvieron literalmente 5 minutos después de realizar el pedido, lo que siempre es preocupante. - No es compatible con Covid en absoluto - Servicio pobre - Carga de chicos drogándose en los baños - Después de quejarse, no hubo empatía y el camarero se marchó en mitad de la conversación. No se ofrecieron disculpas ni explicaciones - Nos negamos a pagar el precio total de 80 y el camarero estaba tratando de regatear un descuento de solo 8 a pesar de nuestras quejas justificadas. Me sentí como si estuviéramos en el maletero de un auto.Soy plenamente consciente de que es un momento muy difícil para la industria hotelera, pero no hay excusas para la terrible experiencia que tuvimos. Por el precio, espero un curry fresco bueno y honesto con al menos la mitad de un servicio decente, pero lo que obtuvimos fue un desastre absoluto.Es una pena, este solía ser un lugar agradable para tomar un curry con los chicos; ciertamente no volverá nunca más.

Normalmente, con la restauración masiva, se esperan niveles más bajos, pero este no fue el caso aquí. La comida fue excelente. Un menú fijo de buffet de poppadums, entrantes mixtos y 4 curry diferentes con arroz. Había algo para todos los gustos, incluidos los vegetarianos del grupo. El personal de espera no podría haber sido más útil al buscar cervezas de los barriles que trajimos para las personas que no podían moverse por la larga mesa para ayudarse.

We ordered various starters and main meals; personally we ordered the set meat meal for 2. Considering the place was full and very busy starters arrive within a reasonable time and were very tasty as was the mains, no complaints, well cooked and presented at a reasonable price.

First visit to the balti walla and enjoyed the experience. 12 of us accommodated comfortably downstairs. Bring you own booze as is traditional for a balti house, but there is a small Sainsbury's just next door to save you carting it in! Good range of tasty starters, onion bhajis with tamarind sauce were excellent and standard chicken balti was very good indeed and excellent value for money. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the staff were very helpful and polite.

I have lived in the UK nearly for 11 years. This is the worst food I have ever had in a curry house. This is also the first time I had to write such a poor review. I went in personally and requested that my food be prepared with a bit more kick, rather than ordering online or over the phone. The packing was haphazard too. As the food spilled all over the bag. I have never seen any other curry house pack the food in such a bad way. Overall a very disappointing experience. I was so looking forward to the food after pondering over the menu for atleast 3-4 weeks. I would give it a miss. Surprisingly the place was almost fully occupied. Half a 🌟!

Really fast service. I had chicken madras, it was pretty standard for restaurant madras. The rice was well cooked and tasty. The best part for me was the garlic naan, it was absolutely perfect. Its bring your own alcohol which makes it a slightly cheaper place to go as you can buy beforehand. I'd recommend to anyone. Also, worth mentioning that you're not interrupted every 5 minutes by different waiters coming over to check you're ok. They popped by once to check we had everything and then left us alone. Great service!

I have visited this restaurant on numerous occasions and it never fails to provide great tasting food . You can bring your own drinks ( convenient Sainsbury’s 2 doors away ) . The staff are always friendly and will always try and fit you in even when it’s busy . An all round great place to dine at a reasonable price !! Highly recommended .

Came here for a meal last week staff were welcoming and friendly we were seated quickly. We ordered poppadoms, chicken North Indian garlic chilli quite a dry curry but very well flavoured, a chicken Jaipur again very well flavoured plenty of sauce and tandoori salmon also flavoured well. We ordered pilau rice, mushroom rice, garlic naan cheese and keema naan and Bombay aloo. It was all very nice and quite light compared to other Indians I’ve been to would definitely come again.

The negative comments always seem to come from those who have received a delivery. Perhaps if you got off your overweight arses, and actually went to the premises, you'd experience a very satisfactory meal like I have.

Weird, really unfriendly staff. I’ve loved Indian food for 40 years plus, in that time I’ve never had starter and main brought together, draught beer replaced by a bottle. Just weird as if it’s eat pay go, I wouldn’t recommend and in reality I should have gone to the one round the corner which was busy. That said food was actually OK, though I didn’t actually get what I ordered.

Twice now our order was over an hour late .no apology no nothing. Spoilt our night on both occasions .won't be ordering from them again. Also curry was only half full on many occasions. Disappointed to say the least.

I’m sorry I love the food but I decided to get some poppadoms this time. 90p for one poppadom is crazy 😂I’m used to Indians just giving poppadoms complimentary. I decide we could do with them and the funniest thing is opening this massive bag for a tiny poppadom? It’s funny but at the same time what the hell?
