We booked a large family outing to celebrate my husband's special birthday and are so glad we did. The food is absolutely delicious with some unusual combinations, e.g. chick pea tartlets and duck samosas, which were amazing. We ordered liberally across the menu (there were a lot of us!) but I have to say that all the other tables were clearly doing the same thing. Everyone was smiling as they ate, and the staff were absolutely charming. Chad, the chef-proprietor, came out to greet the birthday boy and chat with us, and then moved on to other tables. All in all, a pretty perfect evening, and we will definitely be back for more.

This is the second time in two weeks we have been to Chez Mumtaj and whilst the food is good the price and the service are shocking. On our first visit we had to wait an 1hr 45 between the starter and main. We gave them the benefit of the doubt as it was busy. On the 2nd visit we waited just shy of 2hrs. We had to ask where our food was. We were totally ignored most of the night and the price was astronomical for both visits. We have used the Mumtaj on a few occasions over the years but will probably go elsewhere next time.

We were looking forward to go there, we had to wait 25 minutes for our table, the wait was very long, the wine wasn't good, I wasn't impressed by the food, overall I'm disappointed and will try another Indian in town.

High-end Indian restaurant situated on London Road close to town in St Albans. Lovely interior with crisp white table cloths, luxurious ambience and good service . The food was nice. We had the Mumtaz salad ( excellent), salted lassi, coriander naan ( soft and light), prawns ( very good quality), biryani, lemon rice and spinach with paneer. The spinach was amazing, unlike any we have had before in an Indian restaurant. To end, we had mango brulee also very good. This is one of the best Indian restaurants that St. Albans has to offer. Would visit again. Nice place for a celebration

The best Indian restaurant i have been to so i don't mind the long drive to get there. Comfortable clean dining room, friendly and helpful staff and the food is excellent. Best quality ingredients from tiger prawns starters, monkfish curry and amazing lamb chops. Not typical although the usual dishes are also on the menu which is one you want to try everything on! I have been coming here for some years now and the quality and standard remain consistently high.

I went there for my first time and I noticed the place was totally empty, it took a while to understand if they had a table for two and eventually got something. In general food was good, bottle of wine starts from 25 GBP and ended up to be about 35 GBP each. The dinner place was too big, at least you would think it was from looking outside, and they had a small bar place at the entrance. I might go back to try the bar but food was a be it expensive.

It was great to visit this restaurant for a special birthday celebration We booked quite late on the day & they still managed to accommodate us. It was for a party of four. I have to say chez Mumtaj food is amazing. The flavours of every individual dish is unique and the service level is on point,The deco of the restaurant is well presented with neutral colours We had a mixture of starters from lamb chops to king prawns also some chicken appetisers For the main courses,we had a number of dishes from the famous dum Biriyani to the house special dishes. What I found was every dish has a very unique flavour,It is quite remarkable to find such good food so local,it is quite humbling to see that food from the Far East such as current Bangladesh, previously east Pakistan/India from the Empire of the British colonial times what we brought back that Food has come so far and it’s available to all As a third generation migrant from the Far East if my parents was still around I am sure they would’ve been proud to eat food such good quality food as prepared here in this kitchen,from 1952 when they got here and how it has Improved to now is quite amazing. I would Like to thank team chez mumtaj for a great evening.

Following the cancellation of an event we called for a last-minute reservation and pretty much got the best seats in the house! The service was brilliant - attentive but not overbearing. As it was a special occasion, we opted for the Taster Menu which was excellent. It was a great way to taste dishes we wouldn't ever order - and plenty of food for 2! Then a lovely bottle of Spy Valley Reisling to go with it. Couldn't recommend enough!

Excellent Indian restaurant. I've been a few times and the food has always been delicious. A lot of innovative dishes which you don't typically see. Portion sizes were good. Tiger prawns were really big and delicious and the Lamb Xacutti was probably my favourite, a truly tasty but unique flavour and tender pieces of lamb.

Overall an appalling dinner experience. Chose this restaurant to celebrate a special occasion with a few kids and elderly. Only to find STAPLE PINS in my mouth as I take a bite of the naan that we ordered. Needless to say we feel really lucky to have not ended up in A&E, especially with kids, infants and elderly. To avoid any scene on the table, I reach out to the reception desk to speak with the manager or person in charge with the piece of metal in my hand. A man appeared after a few minutes wait to literally jump to take those pins from my hand before even letting me speak, not knowing I have taken pictures. And now as I request to speak with the manager, it was a joke to see the commotion in the back trying to figure out who will or should role play a manager to deal with the situation. As a guy turns up claiming to be the Manager, the least I expected was an apology first to start the conversation, but of course not. Instead, without even letting me speak, he tries to offer me a ‘smallish cake with a candle’ as a compensation, just because we were celebrating an occasion that he had no clue about. I literally had to ask him to shut up! and chose not to speak any further. We ended up spending over £300 for an awful experience that literally left me frustrated and worried, thinking what if the kids, elderly or even anyone else around swallowed that sharp staple pin….yet no apology was offered. For some reason as I write this review, it upsets me even more bring back that whole experience in my mind. This has now been formally reported to FHRS at the St Albans District Council for further investigation.

Having not seen some friends for a while and us all being foodies we knew of this restaurant and had read the reviews, we thought we would be in for an extra special treat. Sadly it was not extraordinary or extra special but more top end Indian food. The tasting menu was very nice, the food quality very good but a little misleading. When we questioned the staff they did not seem know and the manager came to explain and was somewhat short with us. Food served 9/10 Service 8/10 Atmosphere 7/10 Overall 8/10 On paying the bill do check, we were overcharged double for drinks and wine, there was a “sorry” when the revised bill came, but it could have been actually meant! Sorry to say - I’m Not so sure I would return in a rush

Have been living in St Albans for nearly 5 years and have been searching for good curry since I moved here, this is my first review of a Indian restaurant, Chez Mumtaj is the best Indian food in St Albans. The food is authentic and tasty, every curry has a distinct taste, there is no “standard” curry recipe sauce. My favourite is Murgh Lazeez, it’s quality chicken cooked in a rich, tangy and spicy tomato sauce. I have been slowly going through the menu, and no dish has disappointed. Also hats off to the wonderful staff especially Rahim Ps thanks to my neighbours who recommended Chez to me!

The best Indian food for miles. The quality of the meat is excellent - the lamb literally melts in your mouth! If you want a great curry then order from here... their Xacutti Lamb is brilliant.

Food was okay, not really much to write home about but filled a hole. Took over an hour to get our starters and then another hour to get our mains. Normally I struggle to finish an Indian but I actually left hungry. It was very busy so atmosphere was okay but the whole place was freezing! I sat eating wearing a coat the whole time, 3/4 of our party were really cold and the amount you pay you’d hope they could pop on some heating
