Having passed Cafe India lots of times on the A5,we decided to try it for the first time. Absolutely fantastic. From the welcome to the wonderful starter dips and poppadoms to the excellent mains. Will definitely be back and can recommend it for anyone wanting a superb authentic Indian meal.

We must have picked a night when the award wining shef was off 7 meals 2 acceptable the rest where liquidised sauce with meat no sign of any vegetables. The sauce was really sweet, you can find better Indian food in the supermarkets. Just like to add the waiting staff where all pleasant and polite but letdown By the chef who should have is liquidiser taken away and bined.

Consistently excellent food, friendly and attentive staff serving an extensive menu of the usual suspects but with some excellent chefs specials. A clean, bright and relaxing restaurant. Good price point for quality food, definitely a family favourite. Just keep doing what you do guys. Well done. We will be back…..soon.

Over the years I have been to Cafe India many times and never suffered from a disappointing experience, the quality of their sauces is excellent and the greeting from Zillar is always warm and welcoming. The prices are reasonable and the service friendly. Their New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc is dry and fresh, good value for the price that they charge.

I hadn't been for a while but was welcomed back like an old friend. My friends and I were thoroughly impressed by our main courses, King prawn bhuna for me had a really flavoursome sauce, which I mopped up with my onion and coriander dry naan, accompanied by a red onion and cucumber raitha. My companions were equally impressed by their dishes, and we vowed not to leave it so long until we returned.

This was our first visit to Cafe India in a while and we were both very impressed. Given lockdown they were taking takeaway orders only, delivered to the car in their car park. We shared a mushroom and spinach madras, with two vegetable sides and chapatis and it was really lovely. Perfectly spiced and full of flavour. Have to say, this was the best Indian we’ve had locally for a long time. We must head back here sooner.

Thought we would try this restaurant as we live close by. Plain and uninviting decor. Starters were ok. Main dishes of curries and rice were very salty, so salty we left most of it. Waiters didn't ask how our meals were but when he came over for us to pay my hubby mentioned it. Found the waiters unwelcoming so won't be returning.

Been eating the food from here for years when visiting friends who live nearby. Goes without saying it is great. I have now started going there now despite the distance because of their Covid 19 precautions. Order on the phone give them the car description and park on their own car park. When the food is ready it is delivered by a masked and gloved member of staff who observes social distancing. Very goo risk assessment.

We visit thus restaurant on a regular basis... Why ? Well the food is always lovely , eat in or takeaway , the service is excellent , the ambiance relaxing and friendly. There is a lot of competition with regards to Indian restaurants and it takes a consistent , professional , approach to how you treat your customers and the food you produce for them , I think Cafe India is that restaurant 5 stars from my wife and I on every visit.

Good food and great serviceFirst time I’d been here but after hearing good things from friends we tried it. Service was quick and the waiters were very polite and attentive. The starter and main meals were very nice. We had the vegetable and chicken pakora, and then a chicken balti, my wife asked for something not on the menu - a paneer and chickpea balti and it was not a problem. Will definitely use again .

Very very average bland food. The vegetable biryani had a few over cooked potatoes and carrots with a poor base sauce. The rice was too fine and bland. The keema rice had very little meat or flavour, I have had better chicken madras from Waitrose takeaway containers. It was a bland base sauce with over cooked chicken. The keema nan was over cooked and the meat had collected at one end and was bland. For £23 it was a total waste of money and an insult to me and my wife. I will NOT be using them again and do not recommend their takeaway to anyone.

We’ve recently started to go to Cafe India on a regular basis, but I saw something I didn’t expect to see on our last visit. The table next to us were served their starters and I noticed the man’s starter was burnt on the bottom. The lady he was with was telling him to send it back. It was a mixed vegetable starter which had obviously been reheated and burnt in the process. I said nothing, which was most unlike me, as I send things back on a regular basis. There was a definite lack of respect for this man, but he sat there and ate it.

We’ve been meaning to try Cafe India for a while. We went tonight. On a diet so was a bit puzzled as to what would be best to have. I had poppadoms and pickles and my partner had veg samosas. The service was good and the waiters were polite and attentive. The food was good and plentiful. Although it was noisy it wasn’t too bad. They were very busy but because their service was so good there was a fast turnover of diners. Our mains were chicken shashlik for myself and king prawn shashlik for my partner. We both enjoyed our food. My partner isn’t mad about Indian food and he enjoyed his food. We shall be back again.

My husband only likes mild food where as I am the opposite so from mixed balti to garlic chilli chicken, to punjabi chicken to Pathia we really are stuck for choices when We visit as they are all so tasty, the naan breads are the best I have ever tasted, garlic and coriander is the absolute best! It is a very lovely place to eat and would definitely recommend Cafe India!

Having previously lived in Bishopswood, we visited this restaurant on many occasions in the past. We were expecting a lovely meal. However, the service was appalling and the food disappointing. We waited an hour for our food - whilst watching the takeaway meals flying out of the door! It would appear that takeaway orders take priority over the in house diners waiting patiently for their food. When my food arrived it was tough and inedible. Dried up chicken served (weirdly) with chips - looking like something out of a fast food burger restaurant. The dessert menus were thrown on the table - probably because the staff were embarrassed. Nobody came to apologise. I have never written a poor review in all the years I have contributed to Trip Adviser, but we were all so disappointed. My only advice would be to stick to the takeaway menu if you really have to visit this restaurant. If you want to sample authentic, tasty Indian food, come to Stafford town instead where there are plenty of lovely restaurants.

Having driven past Cafe India many times my husband and I decided to try it tonight and I just wish we had tried it a long time ago!! Although from the outside it looks a bit naff once you step foot inside the door you are in a completely different place. Wooden tables and chairs and plenty of room. There were at least 3 families with toddlers in high chairs which I thought was fantastic. I had the Lamb Tetul to start followed by the Chicken Makhani and my husband had the Mixed Kebab starter followed by Chicken Naga and everything was very tasty and served hot and quickly. My Chicken Makhani was the best curry I have had for a long time and hubby said the same. Staff were very friendly and helpful and we will definitely be going back again.

For my husband's birthday he wanted to enjoy a meal with his children and partners.This restaurant is mid way for us all and the best bit is it serves Indian food, which we all love.My husband and I have eaten here a few times but not for a couple of years, since moving house so it was nice to return - just hoped it was as good as I remembered!It did not disappoint! I am glad I reserved a table as it was extremely busy, in fact the car park was full so much so we struggled to park without blocking someone in. Once parked we went into the restaurant.The tables were all full but our reserved table was available at the rear of the restaurant. It was quite noisy and there were quite a few children in there that unfortunately were not being very well controlled so were running around and shouting/screaming.That aside we continued to enjoy our evening and the delicious food on offer.The service was not the best as we had to chase our drinks a few times, however, this did not spoil our meal after all it was busy and the staff had a lot of customers to serve.All of our meals were delivered together and were every bit as delicious as I remember the food being on our previous visits.There was quite a variety of meals to choose from and the portions were just right.And the price was very very reasonable - just over £100 for the 5 of us !!!!Just a few minor faults but overall a fabulous evening and the restaurant did not disappoint just as good as I ever remember it being !

Had a great meal well cooked lots of flavour. Asked about the salad provided with my dish as I do not like the designer lettuce increasingly served nowadays. Was told to tell them next time and they would do a cucumber and tomato salad instead. Just one thing the Stafford address is a stretch but that is not their doing. If driving from the Gailey direction easy to miss especially in the dark. Fortunately there is a BP petrol station just up the road that is good for turning round in. Well worth a try.

We had a tandoori sizzler to start to share, it was lovely and plenty to go at, the lamb on it was especially nice and tender, mains were chicken tikka balti, chicken tikka pathia, egg fried rice and nam breads. Food was excellent, service was great, in fact we couldn't fault a thing we just wish we had tried it sooner, next time I will take photos of the food I was sat to near the till to do so this time it would have been a little obvious.

Food pretty faultless from light and crisp popadoms through to the main meals.aam chicken starter a highlight and all mains hot and spiced perfectly. All reasonably priced and a great meal topped off by a small personal touch, it means the world when your son is asked by name if he is ok by somebody who hadn't seen him for over a year, cheers frank.wholly recommend.

Twice in the past 4 weeks have we eaten at this restaurant, and on each occasion it has been brilliant!We love our Indian cuisine and have eaten a lot in the balti HQ (Lye High St) in the West Midlands, but it's a bit of a trek for us. What a delight to find this place on our doorstep. Quality of the food is first class, service is efficient but not intrusive, and the atmosphere is very pleasant without being noisy and offensive.All in all, highly recommended.

We have been going to Cafe India for many years now, its combination of excellent Indian food, consistent quality and great value for money is unbeatable in the local area. Despite what has been said in other reviews their lamb is always really tender, as they marinate it in advance, even for the lamb tikka. Tonight was the best meal that we have had there, starting with chicken and lamb tikka, their green yoghurt sauce to accompany it is delicious. Then a king prawn balti for my wife, and a king prawn bhuna for me, accompanied by a mixed raita, two excellent naan breads and an aubergine dish; all were superb, and we were too full to order anything else. The bill was £33.20, terrific value for money, no wonder that it was packed.

After being recommended a few times we decided to visit with a couple of friends. On arrival staff were very pleasant and welcoming. Food was excellent and service was very good too. Evening topped off with a complementary whiskey for the lads and baileys for the girls. Will definitely visit again in the not so distant future... just a shame I'm out of range for delivery

Found this place on TA when travelling. Had to leave a dose of reality. I wonder if the people who left five star reviews of this restaurant have ever had an excellent curry. It was OK. Bland and lacking in flavour but mostly inoffensive. Loads of onion, not that much meat. Rice too sticky. Deep fried starter too crispy on the outside with uncooked batter in the middle. Service was passable - fussy and disinterested in the wrong places. Coffee was terrible. Sorry but it really was.

Made a telephone booking but could have easily turned up on spec. Only a handful of tables occupied on a Saturday night. Seems very popular with take out and home delivery.From the outside the building itself is underwhelming and puts you in mind of a 'Little Chef'. Maybe that's was the previous use. I think the restaurant would be enhanced by a little more though on its 'curb appeal'.Good parking though shared with Weston park Motors.We arrived early and had a drink whilst waiting for the rest of our party. The seating area for non diners is not comfortable, high table/ high chair and we were glad to be shown to our table. The cokes we ordered were poured from a plastic 2 litre bottle.The décor is non traditional, open plan and airy with air conditioning. Piped music was subtle. Good clean modern loos.We ordered poppadum's, starters, mains and sides with drinks over 2.5 hrs the bill came to a respectable £ 23 per head. I enjoyed the samosas chat, nice and spicy with a chick pea garnish. The Bay Of Bengal fish special recommended too , nice a meaty. The Sylheti special mix with prawns chicken and lamb would be by choice next time as that looked great.If you can visit Sunday-Thursday there is a great value meal deal £ 9.95.

Visited Cafe India once again with my other half for a great curry. Greated by three staff members who we find are always pleased to see us. We have now used this restaurant on several occasions as a couple and with friends, it has become our local Indian restaurant as we can't find any faults with their service, meals not to mention their mid week price deals.You will not go wrong by visiting Cafe India on the A5, trust me.

We have been eating at this restaurant for a couple of years now and although we live 17miles away if we fancy indian this is our go to place. Nothing is too much trouble and the belpuri Channa almost turned me veggie (my carnivorous side won out) give this place a try you won't be disappointed

Been here a few times recently the food is always very good my favourite at the moment is the lamb stir fry starter Mon-Thurs it's just 9.95 for a starter main and coffee or ice cream a bargain if you ask me!

We turned up on spec on a Saturday night a table was found, the staff were excellent. Superb service table cleaned between courses, the food was excellent.My only comment I have family who are vegetarians it would have been nice to see a vegetarian section rather than large portions of side dishes. For an Indian restaurant I'm always disappointed by this as different lentil dishes and vegetable dishes should be available as you would find when visiting the Sub Continent

Ordered here previously and food was gorgeous. Food tonight. Bland. Naan bread had a bizarre taste. Poppadom stale and chips raw. Random to send a delivery driver with “no change” I would have said to keep the £2-£3 change anyway but to be forced to felt bizarre.

Called in for a curry without making a reservation the front of house made me welcome seated me and the wife quickly and attended our requests for drinks. The waiter was really friendly and we struck up conversation about day to day. I have eaten at the Miraj in the past and all the time they seem to be changing the decorations and making improvements and adding to the ambiance and atmosphere, making it a pleasant place to dine. The waiter bought over the menus and we chose our dishes I made a special request for my Chicken Jalfrezi to be cooked in a certain way and the wife had a korma with sides, keema nan. I can honestly say top marks to the chef it was the nicest curry I have had in a while, all presented hot and tasty washed down with a refreshing pint of cobra. The staff were polite and attentive asking how the food was and offering complimentary drinks at the end of the meal. I will definitely be going back for a meal soon and recommend this restaurant for a nice setting and meal.
