Nice place, service was 5 stars. Prawn on puri starter and nan bread were excellent. Curries not so good,meat was nice and tender but lamb balti was tasteless and a bit watery. Lamb bhuna ok but had better. Maybe we made wrong main course choices. Would try again

This place never fails to please. Just the smell of the food coming out to different tables was making our mouths water. The locals also were in and out with a constant stream of takeout. They know where it’s at! I’ve been coming here on and off since it opened and it is still one of the greatest restaurants in Cardiff. The prices are extremely reasonable and the place is very well managed, run by old schoolers in the hospitality game who really do things the right way. I just can’t get over how good the place still is after all these years. Restaurants like this, independent, are a dying breed and we need to support them collectively. This place is an absolute gem. If you can walk a little the best shot at parking is at the scout hut car park by llandaff fields. If not, you may find parking down Pontcanna st or nearby.

The first time I ate at this establishment, the popedoms were not fresh or crispy. The meat in the main course was a bit tough, although it tasted good, the service was a bit rushed, but it was a Saturday night. The starter was very nice and tasty.

Disappointing to say the least. Bland, chicken tikka, mushy flavourless dal, watery mango. Lost my custom for good. Noticed standards slipping for a while now but enough.

We’ve been to the Cinnamon Tree restaurant several times, but as my wife has been diagnosed as coeliac it’s been hard to find somewhere that caters for non gluten dishes. We went there and Ahad was superb . He tried to make a Phuree dish without normal wheat flour as an experiment for my wife and it was very good. Top marks to Ahad and the chefs,they are a credit to the Cinammon Tree! I We would definitely recommend this restaurant as they are so helpful and understanding..

This has been a favourite place for many years, and this visit was every bit as good, if not better, than I remember. The relaxing atmosphere was enhanced by the friendly but unobtrusive approach of staff, all the furnishings and decorations had been carefully chosen to give a feeling of being at ease. The food was exceptionally tasty and a perfect consistency. It had obviously been prepared with the utmost care, with a beautiful balance of different flavours. If I had to suggest an improvement it would be to take more notice of diners once the main course is finished, to ask if they would like more, or wish to leave. Otherwise, a perfect experience.

First time ordering, the food was cold, the order was wrong with an item missing no refund and portion size small for the price, very disappointed as I had high hopes after reading the reviews £30 of my hard earned money wasted, I won't be ordering from here again.

I had visited the Cinnamon tree a few months ago with friends and everyone had amazing food. When we visited yesterday the food was completely different, no lovely smooth sauce, just thick stodgy stuff with little taste. Very disappointing, no-one enjoyed it.

After giving this place a few tries I can't say I'd recommend it. If you're happy with a generic curry, done to an acceptable standard you could do worse, but there isn't much positive to say. The portions aren't particularly generous considering the prices, and the quality of the meat could be better. I find the menu veers between uber-traditional and strange, with little in between. After ordering two tandoori dishes this past week I think we'll be steering clear of this place. I was served a very small and sorry looking pile of dry chicken, without any onions or peppers, as is customary at most places of this type. I'm rarely too conscious about price, but paying the same amount for a subpar meal as some genuinely excellent alternatives within a half mile radius annoyed me. The staff seem friendly enough, and the location is prime. It has all the makings of a solid restaurant, they just really need to rethink the food.

We had a fab meal here...very attentive friendly staff. All the dishes were super tasty ...we chose the mildest ones ( coded on the menu as red amber or green chilli depending on the heat). The nan bread was so fresh and delicious. Portions were very ample. It was nice to be asked if we preferred a little pause in between starters and main. I would totally recommend this restaurant in Pontcanna Cardiff. Message to Cinnamon Tree...thank you for a lovely meal! But the outside of the building doesn't look like a restaurant! Maybe it needs to be more lit up somehow? Also when I searched for the menu on google, it took me to the home delivery page and so I got the impression it was delivery only.

Good solid traditional curry’s cooked well. The staff here are extremely professional and polite. Our particular favourites are the Garlic chilli chicken which is bursting with flavour and the shashlik which comes with potato straws. Expect to pay £50-60 for a meal for two including starters and drinks. If you are in the area give this place a try. Not sure if they still make them but their chocolate samosas are fantastic.

We have been here loads of times and the food is consistently good. It was no different in this occasion. There was only a about six of us eating in. A person came in for a takaway and the staff members talked loudly with him about football throughout our meal. For about half an hour! If I had wanted a review of football teams spoken loudly, I would have watched a programme on TV. I’m not averse to a discussion about football but it was very loud and rude in my opinion. Spoilt my evening.

The food was very good; it was just spoiled by the hoover coming out at 9.30pm and the restaurant being cleaned immediately we had finished our food! This experience made us feel uncomfortable when the advertised hours of opening were until 10pm.

I seen google review and thought We should give a try this place. To be honest this place was not up to my expectations. So many good Indian restaurant out there. First, food came cold. More like microwave food. We asked keema nan which is very rubbery and barely any keema in there just with colour of mince meat. All other nan was very small and rubbery. My 70 years old mom Couldn’t manage to have those nan just because of elastic texture. A nan should be fresh hot and crisp, not a readymade Asda nan bread with just little bit of hit. Everything else was fine. I don’t recommend this restaurant

Food wasn't the greatest tonight, the keema naan tasted different and the madras was lacking spice. It did get here fast but I wonder if it had anything to do with the food not being on par. Will still continue to order, just hope for that usual goodness next time!

Reasonably priced great tasting food in a lovely part of Cardiff. Seems popular with the locals and the staff are really friendly. The only downside for us is everything felt rushed. No sooner had we finished our starters the mains were brought over. Then they came over three times to ask if we’d finished when we were just having a break. We’d ordered a bottle of red and wanted to relax and take our time with our meal, but we didn’t feel able to. Would definitely visit again though.

Found this on Google Maps when I was staying close by and looking for an Indian restaurant. Service was ok but I felt they kept rushing me. Also a waiter kept berating another waiter, which is not professional. The kid was only young and doing his best. The chicken shashlik was quite expensive, I don’t usually pay that much money for one, it came out and rather than dish it up yourself from the sizzling plate, which I like, the waiter just took it all of the sizzling plate and piled it on a regular plate, it looked a mess. The chicken didn’t have much taste to it, They even serve it up with a big bowl of red sauce which was weird. Not the greatest Indian I have had

Food was cold on arrival as well as arriving late. Food came without no curry sauce and was just the chicken chunks. Theres no note to advise that there will be no curry with the chicken. Very disappointed. Wont be using again and strongly advise others to do the same. Offered us a partial refund & apologised for the service as they have been busy, if thats the case then you should only offer the influx of orders you can actually offer.

The Cinnamon Tree was such a wonderful place to visit and I was absolutely astounded by the friendliness and warm welcome of the staff. They were very accommodating in helping choose the food and chilli heat, creating a set of meals for us that were all very tasty (I like very hot chilli-based food and they gauged the heat perfectly). They regaled us with stories and photographs of their homegrown Naga chillies (!) and the best way to prepare and cook with green chillies and that care showed in the food they served. I cannot recommend this place enough, if you are in the area for Indian food, definitely give it a try.
