Bengal Brasserie in Belfast

Great food, drink and atmosphere!!

Nice presentation & good service, good quality food

We had an excellent Indian meal in the Bengal Brasserie. My Chicken Korma was excellent 😋. Ice cream desserts were very tasty. I would add that like most Restaurants in Belfast, the Bengals prices have increased but don't let that put you off.

We got takeaway food. The Brasserie is convenient, reliable, and has great food and staff. Very lucky to have such a good place nearby.

The food is delicious and the service fantastic! The Bengal tapas for two starter is a must try!

Visiting Bangor Brasserie in Belfast with friends was an unforgettable culinary experience. The brasserie's chic yet cozy ambiance made it the perfect spot for our gathering. From the moment we arrived, the friendly staff made us feel right at home, guiding us through the menu with expert recommendations. I started with the seafood chowder, a hearty dish brimming with fresh flavors that set a high standard for the rest of the meal. For the main course, I chose the pan-seared duck breast, cooked to perfection and accompanied by a delightful medley of seasonal vegetables and a rich, tangy sauce. Each bite was a testament to the chef’s skill and creativity. My friends enjoyed a variety of dishes, from succulent steaks to vegetarian risottos, and each plate was met with enthusiastic praise. We concluded with a shared dessert platter, featuring an assortment of decadent treats. The exceptional food, combined with great company and outstanding service, made our visit to Bangor Brasserie truly memorable.

I used to come to the Bengal Brasserie a lot many years ago - 15-20 plus maybe - and it only came back on my radar having moved house over to the Ormeau area. We have been there three times in the last couple of weeks and I couldn’t recommended the food, service and ambiance more highly. It’s a real treat to go there. The food is top notch - fresh, full of flavour and beautifully presented. But what sets it apart is the warm welcome and customer service. My family and I were warmly welcomed on every occasion, and the Menu options were tailored to suit a range of tolerances to hot food and spice. Service was very attentive and personal on every occasion, and there is a clear level of pride among the staff. The little touches like the hot towels at the end of the serving and complimentary post dinner liquor bring back great memories of classic restaurant service. We loved it all and on every visit! This original version of Bengal Brasserie (the Lisburn Road one is a different business with difference owners I believe) has been an institution in Belfast for over 30 years and it is easy to see why it has stood the test of time when hundreds of restaurants have come and gone over three decades. My only regret is that it fell off my radar for so long, but I am so delighted that we have rediscovered it!

We were looking forward to receiving our meal as heard great reviews about this restaurant. Unfortunately, the lamb korma was uneatable as it had a strong taste of coconut.

As an Indian, it's tough to ignore that for several dishes in fish and chicken, the restaurant used the same gravy. I was homesick so ordered 3-4 varieties of fish and chicken and how disappointed I was. I never visited again!

Good food ... expensive but worth it

Oh my goodness the food is just out of this world and the staff can't be enough for you. The only thing is it's very dear and wouldn't be going all the time.

Once again a stunning meal served by super friendly staff .. can't rate the bengal brasserie highly enough. We went here last night with our 2 boys and they both loved it.. from the food to the staff and stunning surroundings this is hands down the best indian restaurant in the country.. highly recommend and can't wait till return.. 10/10 thanks guys Liam x

Food arrived 2 hours later on just eat. Food was cold. I ordered bhuna and it was so bland and watery. Really disappointed after reading the reviews of how amazing it is.

Five of us went for dinner with a 7.30 booking. We didnt get seated till after 8.30. We ordered our food (only mains) and then waited over an hour before our food came. Then we waited another 15 minutes for our nans and rice. Meanwhile we realised our food was only lukewarm. When this was pointed out to the waiter, he took our food and bought it back within 2 minutes. It was obviously heated in the microwave. This meal was a comedy of errors. The food was only average. We were offered complimentary drinks which when the bill came, we had been charged for it!!! Avoid at all costs.

Not much of an atmosphere on an early Tuesday evening, staff are very accommodating, customer is King / Queen!

So disappointed with my meal last night. A very watery korma which arrived not quite cold, but not hot either. The prawns were absolutely blazed, overcooked and tough. Really not a great experience. Delivery also arrived after the allotted time window so I was very hungry.

Exceptional night out. Staff treated me and my friends like royalty. Food was delicious and service was excellent. Complimentary starter platter and aperitif just topped off an amazing evening. We will be going back for sure. Thank you

Lovely place! We were visiting from the states and went here for a date night and it was perfect. Staff was very friendly and the vindaloo was very well spiced, would highly recommend if you are a fan of heat.

I went to Bengal Brasserie for solo tuesday date night and had such a lovely time. The waiters were so attentive and lovely, food was incredible, big portions and so tasty. As a first time visitor to Belfast i'm definitely going to recommend to everyone. such a good experience, thank you!

We had a beautiful meal and great service...the staff are fantastic...beautiful restaurant.

Had birthday dinner here tonight,staff very attentive, excellent layout, food was excellent,thoroughly enjoyable, recommend.

Absolutely stunning Indian restaurant.. beautiful food cold beer super friendly staff.. By far the best indian restaurant in Belfast.. Highly recommended.. not your usual run of the mill.. fantastic experience can't wait to return 😀

I met up with an old friend while in Belfast on business. The Bengal Brasserie was an inspired choice for a place to eat !! Service was good, with waiting staff being attentive but not overbearing. The food was amazing and the portions were well-sized (I didn't finish mine). All taken together, it is well worth the very slight premium over other restaurants in the area and I'll definitely return there when I'm back in Belfast in the next few months.

Had not been here for a while but once everything was fantastic. Food, staff, service all 5 star. Never been disappointed just wished we lived closer.

Delicious food, service was fantastic. Food was hot and the servers were there for anything you needed. There was so much food, they kindly packed up all the leftovers to have later. It wasn't too busy either so it created a nice atmosphere to have dinner.

Tandoori is extra ordinary food. Their Bengal Tapas starter is so tasty. We really love their food. Extremely sorry that we have no food photos. **Service is good. All staff are very cordial and friendly.

We had a lovely evening at the Bengal Brasserie and enjoyed delicious food and fabulous service from all our waiters. Great selection meals as well. Would definitely recommend to anyone who fancies a curry in Belfast

Lovely meal tonight The service was excellent and my garlic chili chicken was lovely and spicy My husband was also very pleased with his lamb curry We were on a Groupon deal which made the price more reasonable

Fabulous evening with friends. First time here. Food was delicious and the staff very attentive. Reasonably priced for a very good Indian Restaurant. Will definitely go back. I'm not a big drinker but they offer beautiful Mocktails

Food is lovely a tad over priced tho

I ordered chicken Methi via Uber eat. The one that I got is the one in the picture, which is definitely wrong. I called the restaurant, and they sent back the same dish again 😡 I ordered Chicken Methi 4 times previously, so I am sure it's wrong. The dish that I received was extremely spicy that I couldn't handle, which exacerbated my cough. This is not even written in the menu as for other spicy dishes. Very bad experience. Also, the pilu rice was so plain. It was without flavour. The starter (mix) was not really yummy but not too bad. Very bad experience.

The chicken in the curry was extremely dry and the prices are actually outrageous compared to other close by Indian restaurants. The curry was 100% under seasoned. The worst part was that I didn't even have a chance to sit down yet and was bombarded to order a drink. I said I needed a moment, after about a minute I was asked to pick a drink. Please let the customers get comfortable first! Really disappointing.

Absolutely loved the food, this is first time I like Indian food from Belfast, really yummyyyyyy. I just loved it . And the delivery was also great.

I would give 0 stars if it was an option. We ordered a pasanda curry and a butter chicken dish but received two light yellowy beige curries. As soon as we opened the lid we sensed something was wrong and tried a bit of the sauce with a teaspoon. It was absolutely nauseating and inedible. We hate to waste food but had no other choice than to discard both of them as it tasted like semolina pudding with chunks of meat in it, just disgustingly sweet and gritty without even a slight hint of spice. As you can see from the picture, the two dishes looked exactly the same. They also smelled and tasted the same as well. We called the restaurant to confirm that we were indeed given the correct order and were told that we were and that is how the dishes are meant to be. As much as I agree and respect that every restaurant have their own recipes and cook in an individual style, you cannot tell me that one of those is supposed to be butter chicken. Extremely disappointing and will not order from here in the future.

Tamim was very helpful with the starter

The food here is great! Definitely on the pricey side for a sit down meal but worth it for sure!

The food was incredible and the staff were very helpful. The balance of spices was perfect, I loved the authentic Bangladeshi flavor in their food. I plan go there again on my next trip to Belfast.

Went on the recommendation of our host at Ravenhill House. Very good food and nice service. Plenty of selections, lots of starters and drinks, too. Be warned - the quantity of portions was huge! On main will serve two to four people! We came in early on a bank holiday, about 5 PM, and we were the only customers. By 6 PM, not a table available! Service is good - almost too attentive, especially when there are few customers. The butter chicken was on the sweet side but good. The chicken tikka biryiani was nice, although the chicken was a bit drive. Nice flavor, though.

Came highly recommended from the Airbnb we stayed at for several days off of Ravenhill Road. Probably the most exhaustive listing of Indian food I’ve ever seen! Creativity of their dishes was incredible! Portion size and taste was amazing. Service was second to none. A must visit if in the Dublin area.

Top class Indian cuisine experience, first class

Best vindaloo in Belfast love getting a delivery also to Kinnaird terrace north Belfast it still is piping hot

Ordered a Bengal brasserie tonight from Uber eats and it was absolutely gorgeous the vindaloo and bhuna was perfect

Great restaurant, food and service out standing, will be back.

Tasty Indian tapas. Beautifully tender lamb. Delicious mushroom rice. Nan bread as excellent as ever.

Lovely decor, good service. Dishes of poppadoms to start followed by lamb patia, a chicken razalla with pilau rice and nan were faultless.

Very poor service .food late if I could give this place one star I would food very cold no response from management very very poor service avoid this place go else where

Excellent restaurant, all dishes are superb, and the most important thing i like that all the time they give fresh food , very coperative staff as well.

Terrible experience service was terrible didn't even feel comfortable asking for anything didn't feel welcome would definitely not be back

My worst ever experience at a restaurant, if after a hard week at work you head out to restaurant to unwind and relax with a close friend I would avoid this place, because what you actually get is a very rude and obnoxious waiter, abruptly interrupted every 10 minutes to buy more drinks when your glasses are sill full and get served food that tastes like a frozen microwave meal. This may seem harsh but it's 100% accurate.

Fantastic food, fantastic service, could not fault the place, up there with the best food ever experienced

Me and my girlfriend got a take away, a chicken bhuna and a lamb palak. After 15 min we finished our meal, we both started to have heartburn and cramps and we had it till the following afternoon. We had no other food that day a part from a salad at lunch. Definitely not a recommendation, not sure what ingredients they used, but dodgy!

Visited a couple of weeks ago. Very stern waiting staff, with the exception of a much more friendly, younger guy. Had to ask about the £23 (!!!) 'offer' that I'd seen online (wasn't automatically made aware of it. Very poor form!! The 'offer' was a curry, naan and half pint of lager for that price. Steep, yet it's a so-called 'offer.' Had difficulties obtaining a pint of water from who was my designated waiter, but got off the other, more friendly one. Charge for poppadoms. First time ever seeing that...and I've been to many Indian restaurants. Curries are £17-95 and upwards with no accompanying naan or rice. Sorry, but that is *insane!!!* My local Indian in east Belfast is £10-95 and is nicer and with bigger portion. Bengal Brasserie's take-out prices are almost half the price of the sit-in costs; why?!! Masala chips decent, but not as nice as another south Belfast Indian. Deeply disappointing to read that others have experienced getting a free sambuca, or otherwise, upon departure of the restaurant. That would have sweetened things slightly for me. I paid just over £35 for my 'offer', poppadoms, a pint of Cobra (£5-95) and Masala chips. That is beyond ridiculous. Much cheaper (and better!) Indian restaurants in Belfast with B.Y.O. This place is decent, but the prices are crazy, crazy, crazy!!

I think , Lamb Shank or Sikandari Ran is perfect dish , It has extra ordinary and exceptional decoration which is attract me and I enjoyed it fully. Customer Service is also well.

On New Year's Eve, we went to this restaurant. The atmosphere is very appealing. The staff was extremely pleasant. From the starter to the dessert, the quality and taste of food were outstanding. The butter chicken and naan were absolutely delicious. Special thanks to the Chef!. Overall, my family and I were impressed, and I would recommend this location.

We were given a voucher as a Christmas and it was Our first time visit . It’s was very busy restaurant but has a lovely atmosphere. All staff that serve us during our visit were very attentive and lovely. The food was lovely specially the tandoori items . The food was tasted amazing and price was adequate. The location is great and place is very cozy. Would definitely be back.

When our food finally arrived, at least 1 hour after ordering, most of the mains were ok but nothing special and the butter chicken was awful, it appeared to be precooked chicken in a sickly sweet sauce, I've tasted better from a jar. Not good enough when they are charging an average of £18-£25 for a main. I expect the food to be better than I can cook at home! The service wasn't just slow, the servers weren't great either. Apart from one, they were not particularly welcoming or helpful. We asked if a meal we had never tried before was very spicey, the waiter just read what it said on the menu! Amazingly we had already done this and the word hot does not always mean the same thing in every restaurant.. This waiter did not seem to know much about how to serve the food or interact with customers either, I suspect he was just there to help out on a busy night. While I appreciate that they were busy, they were completely unapologetic for the slow service and watching bag after bag of takeaway food being carried past to the front counter does not help the mood of hungry neglected customers in the restaurant. We won't be back, there are several Indian restaurants nearby that serve better food at more reasonable prices.

Was in a party of 9 people booked for 7pm. When we arrived they looked like they’d never heard of the booking. Eventually got a table after 10 mins standing in the doorway blocking the place. The ninth person wasn’t given a seating at the table we had to ask for a chair. Twice. The order was taken around 7.30 and 3 people got starters however the main courses were not served until 8.40 pm. Nearly two hours after being in the restaurant. Half the party got their food while the other half had to wait for the rest to come up the table. The wrong Tikka meal was plonked down in front of me. The waiting staff looked blankly at any request for water or drinks. Nobody came near us to ask if we needed anything. People were coming in after us, getting served and leaving before we’d even got our main meals. Staff were unpleasant. They could learn a lot from Nu Delhi or any other Indian Restaurant for that matter.

Very expensive for an average Indian meal. When we finally received our meal after a very long wait(about 1 hour after ordering), most of the food served to our party was ok, but nothing special and the butter chicken was awful. It appeared to be precooked chicken in a sickly sweet sauce, I've tasted better from a jar. The lamb tikka was nice enough but had no depth of flavour. I expect much better when paying what I think is quite a high price for an Indian meal (£18 -£25 was the average price for a main dish) The servers were not great either, apart from one, they were not particularly welcoming or helpful, we asked for more information about a meal we had never tried before, and the waiter just read what it said on the menu!!! This particular waiter didn't seem to have much of a clue about how to serve food or interact with customers, I think he may just have been brought in at the last minute to help out! I appreciate that it was a busy night, but they were totally unapologetic for the slow service and watching bag after bag of takeaway food being taken to the front counter does not help the mood of hungry neglected customers in the restaurant. Not good enough for the money they are charging.

Me and my boyfriend came here for last minute new year plan. We were greeted so quickly with drink and food menus as well as popadoms to start with immaculate sauces. We ordered and enjoyed the atmosphere in a busy restaurant. Every need was met and once the food arrived I couldn’t believe the quality of food as I have never had an Indian before. It will not be my last. A special mention to Zack for his hospitality which was second to none. A friendly face as well as amazing knowledge on the menu makes such a difference when your not sure of the food. We can’t wait to come back. Thank you bengal!!

Arrived hot and promptly. Good all round Indian.

We had a lovely meal on Christmas day at the Bengal and I would like to thank all the staff who were so welcoming and attentive , even to the point of giving us all a very well thought out present. Thank you once again for your hospitality, and wishing you all a Happy New Year and Best Wishes. Ruth and Ena.

I've been a customer here for years, and it has a decent reputation. Prices are pretty steep for a suburban Indian restaurant, and on tonight's showing, not value for money. Our group of 14 were mostly happy with their shared starters and Indian standards like Lamb Rogan Josh and Tandoori Chicken Tikka. But service was not good. Several staff just didn't seem very clued in, and I'm sorry to report, not very professional. I hate to repeat myself, but staff should be trained properly before being sent out on the floor. My Lamb Chops were completely overdone and were dry and tasteless. At £21.95 I expected much better. Mains are around the £18 to £20 mark. Starters are around £8. Sides were the best part of the menu. The Palok Paneer, spinach with Indian cottage cheese, was delicious. Aubergine slow cooked with mellow spices, was soft and smokey. But the evening was let down with poor service. There are plenty of staff, but some of them don't seem to know what they're doing. I complained about the Lamb Chops and they took them off the bill, after a bit of to-ing and fro-ing. They sent out "Little Guinnesses", featuring Baileys and Kahlua, which was a nice gesture. But I'd prefer if their food was right first time. Our bill worked out at £50 per person, which is serious money for a curry. Disappointing.

Excellent restaurant to visit. The service here is top notch. If you dropped a fork they'd already be there with a clean one before you can ask. The food was exceptional, served hot and tasted very fresh. Everything we had was cooked perfect. Would recommend for groups and couples.

Superb meal, service and ambiance...one server wiped the table between courses ... excellent..

Fantastic as always! Especially recommend the lamb rack. An Indian take on rack of lamb. Such a treat...

Amazing Food Amazing service Cant wait to get back!! A big thank you also to our very helpful and informative waiter, Tamim, who recommended some beautiful dishes and flavour combinations.

Good food staff would recommend

Excellent service and friendly staff.

Great meal from start to finish, the saffron sauce in the mixed starter for 2 was fantastic. Everything was cooked to perfection. Would go back for the naans and that saffron sauce alone.

Great food at astronomical prices, with terrible service. You'd expect after spending over twenty pounds on a curry and rice not to have the waiter cleaning your table and trying to get you out the door as fast as possible.

Great food, nice decor (much better than it used to be), quick service.

Just had such a fantastic meal, food was tasty , quick and hot. Staff were the nicest people ever, full of conversation and genuine as ever. We also got 3 for 2 cocktails! AND 2 FREE sambuca shots ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Ridiculous restaurant. Didn't bother delivering food as they are too cheap to ring phone number provided and blamed it on not having apartment number which no one ever needs. They could have also informed deliveroo but didn't do that either..Currently arguing with deliveroo about getting £23 back. Cheapskate, lousy and ugly treatment of customers. Terrible delivery service and actual robbery of my money. This will be escalated to wherever it needs to highlight this disgraceful restaurant. Trampy

Amazing experience , fantastic hospitality, and best food i ever tasted , in short Bengal Bresserie made my day . Recommend to all food authentic lover 💯💯💯💯

First time back in a long time was really looking forward to it.Boom £4 for one small btl. O-alchol beer Boom £18 for a lamb dish Boom £3 poppadoms Boom £4 pilu rice. Wont be back Begal BEHAVE

Lovely restaurant with fabulous food and very friendly staff. Always come here when I come over from Merseyside staying with my friend .

Best about but you do pay for it!

Not authenticate. Chicken curries appear to be a diced chicken breast in various slops. Vindaloo was just hot. Not sour. Dansak was just sweet. Very expensive. 2xcurries/rice, 1 shared starter, 1 large coke + tap water. Over £53 - Wow. Staff, service and cleanliness were however excellent. PS We had the same meal in the nearby Naz 24 hours later. It was nearly TWENTY QUID CHEAPER !

The staff were so attentive and friendly and the food was superb and complimentary drink at the end with choice

Not only was the food excellent, but the service was from the top draw. The attention to detail was excellent.

Excellent service. Excellent food.

Insgesamt leider nur 2 Sterne: • Sehr aufdringliches Personal, welches unbedingt "Spezialitäten" verkaufen möchte (1 Stern) • Hygiene am Tisch (2 Sterne) • Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis (2 Sterne)

This was my go to place in Belfast for Indian food. However I was shocked the prices have shot up in the last several months. I’m from London. The prices in here are on par with very high end fine dining in London. Average is £17 for a single main dish. I have visited 100’s of Indians Accross the world. The food it’s self is ok. Not great in my opinion. I love a pahtia, it’s the dish I compare in every restaurant, this places was very red in colour and tastes of sugar no sour taste. I give the food 6/10. The ambiance is very nice. Staff are friendly.

Amazing food and service at Bengal Brasserie, Ormeau Rd. Staff couldn’t do enough. Will definitely be back. Thank you Mamun, Tamim, Al Amin and Luthfur for looking after us so well ……and for the Prosecco!

Very Poor tonite ( 7.5.22). This place used to be a stable- guaranteed fresh Indian with great flavour. Tonite was the worst takeaway we have had in a long time. The meat for both the starter and main was tough to the point of inedible. Soo disappointing for the price. Not sure I will be back.

I ordered to collect... Absolutely disgusting, chicken was hard freezing cold, madras which was more like a masala.. The price of food was £16.40 so i handed him a £20 and he said did i have the right money as he had no change in till or shop to give me.. So i had to let him keep change.. Phoned shop after eating to complain and he more or less called me a liar as he said he always gives his customers change and that i must of been talking abput another shop ha... The cheek of him even, horrible customer service and horrible food.. I DONT RECCOMEND THIS ESTABLISHMENT TO ANYONE

Very long wait and trouble accepting card payments

Friendly efficient service..Great food and wine to match

Not great. Ordered for delivery, guy on the phone says it’ll be 40 minutes. It’s 70 minutes. I chase a few times and am told the delivery man left the restaurant over half an hour ago. My house is a 3 minute drive from the restaurant. Food eventually turns up - it’s cold, which isn’t surprising given it’s been in a car for well over half an hour. I ring up and, amazingly, the man in the restaurant tells me my food is hot, even though I’m standing in my kitchen touching the cold food. I could send it back, but my family are at this point starving, so we end up paying £45 for cold food. No discount, no refund, no apology - no chance of me going back. Avoid.

Awful. Would give zero stars if that was possible. The food is no where near Bengali, let alone Indian. Extremely overpriced! Can’t believe the prices for the rubbish that’s being served! Staff are lovely but service was painfully slow.

1st and last time we will go here. Waited over 2 hours for our meal, when arrived cold taken away only to be heated in microwave!! Over booked, could not cope, take away orders seemed to have been a priority. Although asked for covid passport, staff either wearing masks keeping chins warm or not covering nose. Awful experience

Bengal Brasserie food is spectacular. The menu has a massive variety of options and the meal we ate tonight was second to none. Staff are polite, welcoming and always very happy to help. I can't fault the Bengal Brasserie at all and I love the food.

Super food at a reasonable price, really nice atmosphere and good service

Packed night confirming its popularity. Good location. Good Covid precautions. Pleasant staff. Starter "tapas" platter was very nice. Not too fussed on main dish I ordered, could have been better prepared. Will I go back? Yes.

Wonderful food and staff. Takeaway everybit as good as meal served to table. Can't fault this wonderful restaurant x

Had the worst flavourless Jalfrezzi tonight used to be awesome. No comparison to the one I had recently at Sonali Lisburn Road. Guess I'll be back to Sonali

The food here is top quality it's very tasty and well presented also the service is the highest standard everything is catered for and nothing is too much trouble the atmosphere is also very nice and relaxed I would highly recommend this restaurant for a quality night out

Went here with my hesties tonight and the food was amazing staff were also so lovely and friendly and super attentive. Gave us a drink on the house after our food, how sweet. We were in a wee private booth at the front of the restaurant and got to play our own tunes through a speaker. Seriously awesome night and will be back for sure !!! Wooohooooo
