We ordered dinner for a small adult group' Delivered to the doorstep locally. Certainly recommended because it is not the first time we have chosen this restaurant. If you love curry dishes or Bangladeshi cooking you will not be disappointed.

Great food, tender lamb and well spiced. However I have never had a manager ask me for a tip before. Pompous idiot no wonder his restaurant is empty.

When all the other Indian restaurants in Wokingham said that they would be unable to accommodate my booking request for 1.00 pm on Boxing Day, the Boishakhi Restaurant were the only restaurant who were both willing and able to do so. When we arrived for our meal it turned out that they would not normally open during the day, but only in the evening on Boxing Day, and had opened especially at lunchtime to accommodate my request which is true ‘extra mile’ service. Myself, my wife, my son, his partner and their 3 young children were the only customers in the restaurant. The staff couldn’t have been more friendly and accommodating. The food was delicious and everyone had a thoroughly good time. I can’t thank the management and the staff enough for having us and saving me and my wife the stress from preparing, cooking and clearing up yet another meal after Christmas Day.

I booked this restaurant for my family as I have been many times over the years and have had a lovely food. We booked for Christmas Day and I got email confirmation . We walked over 4 miles only to be met with the restaurant being closed! Why did you accept my booking. Such a simple thing to book? Not! but thank god for Six Bells they saved our Christmas and to be honest best food I have had in a long time. Such a shame as always rated Boishaki

To be clear this review relates to a delivery order this evening. I have eaten at the restaurant before and ordered online many times. Tonight I placed an order for delivery. I did this at around 18:40. I received an automated reply saying the delivery time would be 1.5 hours later. In the notes I had requested delivery for 19:30 in order to tie in with celebrations for a friends birthday as there is no way to see current waiting times. I called the restaurant after after ordeing and was assured that delivery would be just over 1 hour, With no delivery happening, I called again at 20:15 and put "On hold" for almost 5 minutes as I was told they needed to deal with other customers. They could not give any valid reason why my order was late and was told the Manager would deliver the food personally and "Sort us out" The food finally arrived after 20:30 not by the manager and the compensation appeared to be a couple of free poppadums. That made all the difference for my £70 spend. The food was only just warm and to be honest not the standard that I had previously experienced - bland to be honest! Folks don't bother with this place any more, they have become complacent and will not get another penny of my money. You have just lost a customer tonight

The place is horrible, I have been there a few times and every time it was an awful experience. Your booking it will always gets mixed up and you are rudely challenged whether you actually booked the table, than you have to wait because the table table is never ready. Terrible customer service, staff is unpleasant, they behave like they are doing you a favour that they there. Poor food quality, sometimes is so spicy, full of chilli powder that it is not edible. If you order a take away you wait for 1,5hrs, when it eventually arrives, it is already cold. I don't recommend the place and I'll not visit them again.

We booked a table of six on a Sunday and arrived in the restaurant late (having called ahead). There was a buffet available which we were encouraged to choose (as this had been fully prepared), and the food was on the whole delicious.The main concerns:- Same serving spoons used to serve meat and vegetarian dishes- Perhaps understandably, the staff wanted us to eat what had already been prepared (and when we asked for a lassi said, 'I would have to make you one) - whilst we understand these are challenging times for restaurants, limited menus/options should really be communicated beforehand- Staff in second half of our meal went outside for a smoke, played items on mobile phones out loud etc. - not very professional

Usually my go-to curry house in Wokingham but tonight’s takeaway was a big disappointment. The chicken Shantoshi was nicely spiced but very dry, so nothing to really dip my naan bread in, and the chicken was not particularly tender. The pilau rice did not look like the normal pilau rice I have when dining in their restaurant (whiter, and with some small bits of vegetable garnish in it) and was very lumpy, so much so that I had to cut/mash it before eating. Finally, the website says you get 10% off collections but, having paid and returned home, I saw my bill had not been discounted. Not sure if the restaurant has changed ownership but I can’t see myself returning here in the near future.

We ordered a collect order on Saturday and when we got it home my prawn bhuna was so spicy I couldn’t eat it and the other chicken tikka bhuna although ok, but some very hard chicken in it, the mixed fried rice had some very strange soft congealed lumps of something in it ! Such a waste of money when it goes straight into the bin. We were so surprised and disappointed as we have had take away from here before, not on a Saturday though so not sure if the chef is different through the week, it’s usually lovely. We will vote with our feet, Wokingham has many Indian restaurants to choose from.

This restaurant serves Bangladesh food and my regular dish is Lamb jalfrezi. Why you may ask? Well it’s because it’s the closest to a true jalfrezi with fresh chilli’s. this dish is a hot dish where the majority of the heat comes from spices and not chilli’s. Cooked well, they deliver a dish that brings out the flavour of the meat and gives you a spice hit followed by a chilli hit. I love the dish and I eat it as a treat because of its richness. The prawn jalfrezi is even better!!If you love tasty spicy food, you’ll love this dish.

I have reviewed this restaurant before a while back and felt compelled to write another tonight. Another excellent delivery tonight, I am fast becoming convinced that this place is the best around (I have tried most of them). The meat in the curries (lamb madras and chicken handi) was delicious - perfectly cooked, melted in the mouth. Food arrives quickly, is always hot and delivered with a smile every time. I noticed a few other reviews on here mention that the staff really care about their customers and I completely agree with that - it’s not just about winning custom for them, it’s about meeting expectations for food and service. Highly, highly recommend.

I frequently eat in the Boishakhi Restaurant in Wokingham as it is very good but last Friday it was exceptional.My friends and I had arranged with the owner, Omar, to have a speciality of the house - whole leg of Lamb Kurzi. It was excellent. You have to give 24 hours notice for this meal as it is marinaded and slow cooked for hours. Omar served it with Pilau Rice and Special Fried Rice, Naan Bread, vegetable Curry, Alu Gobi and of course the wonderful gravy from the roasting dish of the lamb.The meat was so flavoursome and so tender it just fell off the bone. A fabulous dinner followed by Six Nations Rugby - brilliant!

I have tried a chicken balti, chicken jalfrezi, tandoori chicken starter, aubergine side dish, chicken achari and a chicken pakora starter. I still have chicken madras but not every time! The other indian restaurants in Wokingham are just not up to the food quality served at the Boishaki, in my opinion.

He estado en este restaurante 4 veces en un mes, así que me siento con derecho a revisión. Una vez en la calle fui era un martes y estaba prácticamente vacía, pero la comida era muy buena. La segunda vez, fue un viernes y estaban ocupados y claramente no podía hacer frente. Esperamos más de una hora para que llegue nuestra principal, y cuando lo hacía la comida estaba bien, pero no genial. La tercera vez fue el buffet de domingo y tuvimos que esperar mucho tiempo para la comida para ser re-equipada, aunque la comida estaba buena. El 4 de julio, otro Domingo Buffet; largo, largo esperar por la comida a ser re-equipada y la selección era sólo un puñado y platos muy básico. No había, ni entrante bhaji tikka, no naan, no sólo samosa, curry de verduras, arroz y otros korma, un plato de pollo. Penoso realmente. Yo por el camarero de 10 libras para los que buscan lo siento samosa's todos tuvimos y llevé a mi familia para el árbol de tamarindo (6), el cual es bastante malo también. En conclusión, cuando no hay nadie más allí, se puede comer bien. Cuando hay más de tres mesas ocupadas que no pueden hacer frente. Yo creo problemas con el personal de cocina.

I was the turn of the Sussex boys to travel up to Berks for the works reunion. The evening consisted of the usual few pints the off for a curry. Our local host had selected the Boishaki without having been before so it was a bit of a gamble. However there was no need to worry as we all had a very pleasant experience. The menu had a number ofmore unusual items on it. I was a bit concerned when ordering the Fish Tikka when I was informed that the was not available, so went for the mixed starter instead but all other dishes we ordered were available. We started with the usual 2 popadams with pickles each, then starters then mains with sides. All the food that arrived was of a high quality and freshly prepared.

I've reviewed Boishaki before for their sunday buffet, and it's where we get our takeaway which is consistently good. We had a surprise child-free evening (hooray!) so decided to go out for our Saturday curry. Service at the Boishaki is really friendly, and very efficient despite it being busy both with diners and takeaway orders. The food was very good - we had lamb tikka with a good selection of vegetable side dishes - all really nicely cooked and presented. Atmosphere very good, down in good part to such cheerful staff. We'll definitely return. Boishaki is right at one end of the town centre but I'd happily walk past several other curry houses (there are lots in Wokingham!) to come here.

I don't often visit Asian restaurants nowadays so I've not so much to compare this with. Stopped 9pm Sunday on our way home from Italy and Gatwick. Just a main course plus poppadum starter. Fresh modern decor. Clean and bright. Friendly welcome from manager/owner. Staff cheerful and efficient even though the end of the day. Decent food. I'd guess it's Bengali owned (sorry if I'm wrong) but has a wide range of South Asian dishes, clearly explained and located. My lamb based dish was excellent, decent meat not overwhelmed by a strong sauce, my wife's veggie dish excellent apart from somewhat over-firm onions. At £30 including a couple of drinks, a good value relaxing break in our journey. Would call again if in the area.

Went here last Friday with friends, we'd called in to "book" before going to the pub for a couple of pre dinner drinks. On our return the drinks order was taken and arrived promptly, the restaurant was already half full and gradually filling up, things got a little haphazard from then on. Starters arrived and were ok although the chutney with the onion bajhis was little more than a teardrop on the side of the plate! The popadoms were stale and had been reheated. Then out of the blue one of the main courses turned up with rice on the plate and an overcooked scotch egg with the consistency of a cricket ball some 5 mins before the other dishes did. The rice and side dishes for the rest of us arrived but I then had to wait another 5 mins for my jalfrezi type dish which looked like sweet and sour chicken, bright red and sticky. The meat was nice but the sauce didn't taste fresh with chillies in it as I was expecting, more like a packet sauce with something like encona poured on. Will try the Tamarind Tree next time which was fully booked on this occasion.

As good as Baranda food wise, but the service can be a little slow at times, and its not as big so would recommend booking ahead if it's a busy night or peak time.

We decided to get a takeaway tonight, and after reading the great reviews online we chose this place! Called them up, and spoke to a really friendly man.. Ordered quickly and easily and paid too. The food came very quickly, delivered to our house no problem and was nice and hot. It was in proper plastic containers which was nice and all looked great. They even threw in some free popadoms and dip which was kind. Food itself was fantastic, delicious Rogan josh (one of the best my partner said he's ever had) and I had some vegetarian dishes, Sag Paneer and a potato dish. Very flavoursome, not greasy and big portions. Overall amazing, and having tried 2 other Indians in Wokingham.. This is by far the best food! Thanks!

A little quiet here as it is further out of town, but, lovely staff and fresh buffet food made up for the slight lack in atmosphere.There are a number of very good Indian buffets in Wokingham and this is definitely worth a visit.

Visited here (again) for their excellent Sunday buffet. Good choice of starters and mains with dishes regularly restocked. Partner ate off the menu and was highly impressed (she's not a great fan of Indian food) with the flavour and the portion.

Great choice, excellent food. Prawn sag a delight. Chicken tikka so tasty and don't walk past the vegetable curry! Service spot on.

Although quite small, it is has superb food and my go to restaurant if I'm in the Centre of Wokingham and looking for a good Indian.The staff are great and friendly and food comes out really fast. Their Chicken Dansak is my favourite and I've never had a bad meal there.

Visited with friends. The welcome was warm and friendly and the service was great. Unfortunately the food was not as good as we hoped from the reviews. I was recommended a dish by the waiter and it was tasty. However it was very oily, as was the pilau rice to the extent it was actually unpleasant to eat. My husband had a similar issue with his meal. Not sure I would return.

Nice atmosphere in restaurant with low level lighting, friendly waiting staff who are not too intrusive on your meal. As first timers here, we noticed a lot of return custom. We chose sharing platter served with 2 chilli sauces and tamarind. Popadums at start served with usual accompaniments, but lime pickle tasted really nice, not as hot as many restaurants serve. Mains my husband was given the fabled scotch egg, very subtly spiced and tasty. This went with a chicken lentil dish, the plate was left clean... My girls had chicken kashmir, korma style sauce with banana, had a nice coconut flavour. Mine was a chicken tikka balti, meat nice and tender, sauce found a little sweet. Grilled meat platter was good arrived sizzling, all had peshwari naan also nice and soft and not too sweet.Are definitely thinking of returning rates highly compared to other Indian resturants in Wokingham.

Went here after 9pm on a Wednesday thinking that there would be plenty of tables. How wrong, it was packed. But we managed to get a table for two, and am pleased we did. The service was fantastic but we weren't rushed, and the menu was really different, whilst retaining some of the normal dishes. The food was very enjoyable and will definitely be going there again.

At first glance, the menu looked to me like a typical Indian (Bangladeshi) array of dishes with the names slightly changed to appear upmarket. How wrong could I be! Most are very different to the norm and delicious. Yes. the old favourites are there but I urge you to be adventurous and you are in for some very different and enjoyable food.

We are spoilt for choice when it comes to Indian restaurants in Wokingham and surrounds, but Boishaki offers the most tasty dishes of those in the town centre. Whilst others may look smarter or offer entertainment, you can't beat Boishaki for good food (and that's what it's all about)! That is not to say that Boishaki doesn't present itself well because it does, it's very nice inside and the staff and management are friendly and efficient. It's gone to the top of our list for Indian restaurants in the town!

Went here for my takeaway for a change. Pleasantly surprised. Friendly service and good food. The Nargis kebab, Indian scotch egg was tasty. The vindaloo was a bit watery but the Gramfrize is spicy and tasty. The restaurant looks pleasant so will be eating in next time.

Omar and his team are always willing to go the extra mile to ensure an enjoyable experience. The food is the best available in a standard (British) Indian restaurant and we are never disappointed.Certainly the best within 20 miles.Highly recommended.

I love curry and have tried most of the Indian restaurants that Wokingham has to offer, but Boishaki wins...easily. The food is gorgeous and it's now become our regular curry destination.They offer all the typical dishes, but also offer a nice range of house specialities so there is plenty to choose from. I'm still trying new things but finding it difficult to beat the Laal Maan.The service is also good - attentive, but not overbearing. We have never felt rushed and have always had time to enjoy each course, as well as a drink or two.Already looking forward to our next visit!

Visited here on a Friday night. I can't compare it to any of the other local curry houses as I've not yet been to any of them however me and my friends all enjoyed the food. Highly recommend the tandoori chicken tikka masala and the saag paneer is also very good. The service was polite if a little slow at first. Good atmosphere in there, and represented very good value indeed at £25 per head with all the extras and beer. Would go back as I know we would have a good meal.

Visited with a party of 5 on a Friday night. We had booked and then put the table back an hour (cocktails!) and this had caused a bit off confusion but they fitted us in now problem.Service was a little slow at times and one drink was forgotten on one round but they quickly resolved these small issues.Started with pappadums all round which were good and standard dips/chutneys. Mix of mains including favourites like Chicken Tikka Massala and also a mushroom side dish and nan breads. I had a King Prawn Pathia which was absolutely excellent - aromatic, full of flavour and nice and spicy. We shared some Onion Bhajis which again were standard style Indian fayre but excellent all the same.All in all a very good curry, good atmosphere, good service, friendly staff and also very well priced - £140 for 5 with two bottles of wine and six pints. Thoroughly recommend,

There are loads of curry places in Wokingham, and you'd have to walk past at least a couple on them to get to Boishaki right on the edge of town. It really is worth a visit though - the Sunday lunchtime buffet has an excellent selection of really tasty dishes - excellent value, and just a shame there aren't more people in the restaurant to improve the atmosphere! Something in the buffet to suit all tastes. This is also our choice for curry delivery too (online ordering works very well) really good food and speedily delivered (so far) Give it a try.

Ate here again on Friday night with some colleagues and had a great meal.We didn't book a table and were sat in the lobby area for 5-10 minutes, and quickly shown to our table. Ordered the usual poppadoms and a few drinks to start.I had the king prawn puri to start, this was great, and then the tandoori 1/2 chicken, dall and peshwari naan. My colleagues ordered a mixture of veg dishes and mixed grill. Food was of very good quality and amount, so much so that we had a doggy bag to take with us at the end!The waiters were very pleasant and efficient, especially as it was a busy Friday night.Well done! I like this restaurant and will return :)
