Forts Of India in Bury - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

This visit was a real surprise! Many years since I have been here, so wasn’t sure what to expect, but the decor, food and service were excellent. As friends, we visit other Asian restaurants in the area, but this was the best food we have eaten for some time! Would recommend.

I dont normally leave reviews, but I was just online to get the phone number to book for tomorrow night for my sons birthday. We usually go to the Jewel in the Crown in Bury, but in September we tried Forts for a change and the food was great. Service was good too. Am looking forward to tomorrow nights meal, and hopefully it will be another 5 star review.

First night I’ve ever been here , lived in bury for 3 years , great place great food and ullah our waiter was fab , loved it xx

Excellent food, large portions, very friendly staff and it was real value for money. Overall, really enjoyable meal and atmosphere.

It was my first time at Fort of India and all the staff from the moment we walked through the door were very welcoming. There were six of us who were celebrating my boyfriend's birthday, and all of us said the same thing the food was lovely and lots of it. We will definitely go again to Fort of India.

Tried other local Indian restaurants, but the FORTS OF INDIA stands out by a country mile. Unbelievable taste, every dish is sublime and the value for money is bang on. The staff are a credit to this place too along with the owner.

I love going here as a Treat on a Sunday afternoon with friend for 16.45 per head its such a Bargain as the foot is outstanding and the staff are so professional, friendly and they have a Great sense of humour. I would highly recommend anyone to visit. You will NOT Be Dissapointed. Thank tou again to the staff and chef for making my Sundays Special.

Usually spot on , but tonight item missing from £52 takeaway order. When phoned to enquire, received apology but asked to come back to re-collect. Didn’t fancy another 15mins drive. Asked instead for credit the item back on card, refused as “don’t know how to work machine”! Asked for them to deliver then, “no cannot do”! Only offer was to ask next time I order….won’t be ordering again. Not exactly good customer service.

Went for Sunday buffet menu. Amazing value for money! The starter came on a sizzling plate and had choice of any main curry. Also had ice cream.. Great wine menu and elegant setting. Definitely will be returning..!

I don’t think I’ve ever received as rude customer service as I did upon entering this restaurant. We came at 9:50PM, which is admittedly later than normal but the restaurant doesn’t close until 11PM. When we entered we were frowned at when asking for a table, no smiles, no pleasantries, and was told we have 40 minutes - which is incorrect, but sure. We decided that was enough time to eat and have a nice time. The waiters looked around awkwardly before one of them decided to take us to a table. Immediately after sitting down the waiter comes over and again, no pleasantries, just says “what do you want to drink”, we ask for a couple minutes to look at the menu and he replies with “well you need to be eaten and gone in 15-20 minutes”. How rude!? First of all we had about an hour still. I’ve worked in the service industry, I know how it works. I’m glad we left and didn’t give them the satisfaction of giving us food they could apparently cook in 10 mins. Never felt so unwelcome in a restaurant in my life. My first experience with the restaurant and don’t think I’ll be coming back again. To conclude, I’ve attached an image of when I started typing this review and it says it still doesn’t close for 43 minutes and that’s after I’ve got back home. Laughable service.

We’ve been several times to this restaurant and never been disappointed with the food. Read some recent poor reviews and still decided to try again. Not disappointed!!! Food was excellent, service excellent, prices very acceptable. Tried the house wine Merlot 250ml £8… reasonable considering the wine was very nice. We have no problem in recommending this restaurant

Visited here recently after never having been before. Waiter was the rudest person any of us have ever encountered. He treated us like an inconvenience.. He literally rolled his eyes at us when we were asking questions. He ruined the whole experience. Would not recommend at all due to his terrible attitude. No wonder it's always empty. Too many good alternatives in the area to have to deal with such ignorance. Food was mediocre too.

Friendly staff, seated straight away, given a decent chance to choose drinks before waiter came and asked, order taken and everything arrived hot well presented and tasty. Restaurant was very clean, toilets were immaculate, bill was reasonable enough. Definitely somewhere id recommend.

Food was bland, fish pakoras were tasteless, chicken rogan josh wasn’t spicy or flavoursome - they delivered my garlic naan after i’ve already eaten my main and when i said no thanks we don’t need it now was met with “well it takes long to make” in a pretty bad attitude - the restaurant wasn’t even busy. the acoustics are also quite loud and canteen-like, even though it was only about half full. poor food, rude staff… won’t be going again.

6 of us went last Saturday night and everyone enjoyed it. The food was good, plentiful and tasty. Service was also excellent - changing the wine (our mistake) was no problem and done without any fuss. The other thing to note was that the restaurant...

Food was great and portion sizes were good too. Staff were friendly and always on hand. Food wasn’t overpriced for what we had either. Will definitely go again.

Rip off. Food average at best, service very slow and then they rip us off for our deposit only give us £45 of the £60 🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁

Staff weren’t exactly friendly, first thing they said was “are you ready to order” no hello or how are you. I asked for a doughey naan as opposed to crispy and the man said “it comes as it comes” and when it came it was...

No words about this except EXPENSIVE and oily … one onion bahji starter no popadums 2 basic curries one with rice one chips, 1 pint n 2 chapati £40 …. Seriously save your money

I was last night refused service and removed from this restaurant after being banned by the manager in 2017 for breaking a stem of a flower because I was very upset and distressed when he had been extremely rude and he had ordered his staff...

Visited with my brother and sister in law.. place could of been a lot cleaner, drinking glasses were dirty.. anyway that’s a minor, me and my sister in shared a curry dish and both really off for days afterwards. Couldn’t keep off the toilet, vomiting...

We went there for an early evening meal. The food took absolutely AGES to arrive, the staff members were distracted and rude, to top it off, the food was disgusting!! The starters were clearly reheated, the vegetable curry tasted like the frozen ready meals at...

I decided to revisit after many years thinking it was the same standard. How wrong I was. Service was terrible. Starter was bland and tasteless Waited ages for the mains curry was hotter than the Madras I ordered The wife had roast chicken which was...

First time visit to forts of India staff where really friendly and the food was absolutely beautiful we had two poppadoms to start alongside some chicken pakora to share I then had honey chilli chicken for my main with pilau rice and a chapati and...

Amazing Sunday Deal ! Didn’t fancy a normal Sunday roast and this place did not disappoint was happy to find they have an amazing Sunday deal ! Really nice every course my son really enjoyed and each portion was generous portions and tasted really fresh...

I've not been impressed with some of the meat based signature or specialist dishes, but the vegetarian options are exceptional! Very good.

Where do I start. Food. That’s what I went for. Really poor quality. Totally tasteless. Bland, and quality of the produce evidently apparent to be frozen. Ordered the veg platter to start. I’m pretty confident it was all pre-made frozen items that were fried and...

My granddaughter and her boyfriend have Been this restaurant many times. Last week they booked a table and were looking forward to a lovely evening - great food and a few drinks. Unfortunately after ordering food and having one round of drinks served. They were...

Perfect takeaway (unable to eat inside because of coronavirus). Excellent value and the food is exceptional. I pray you can stay open and continue to offer takeaway. I have been coming here for over 20 years and hopefully I will for at least 20 more.

Very good food looked after by a nice friendly waiter called Mohsin lovely starters followed by a nice curry

We went for a family birthday meal as we had been before. Lovely food and atmosphere. Spoilt at the end by the extortionate drinks bill £8 for a 200ml bottle of Prosecco, we had 4 and then other drinks on top and charging a 3 year old for a full price buffet meal! When they advertise they eat FREE. Not very attentive considering they were quiet, poor customer service. We would not return again!

The menu is very varied and the quality is excellent. The friendliness of the staff added to the experience making it a really enjoyable evening.

I am unsure to how this place is still running! Crap food crap service and the staff are so unhelpful and rude. I would avoid at all costs.

Visited the Forts of India in Whitefield on Sunday (17-11-19). When I fancy a tandoori meal rather than a curry I like a side portion of tarka dhal rather than a curry sauce and also prefer to make the meal up from a few starters rather than a tandoori mix, so I ordered Chicken Tikka, Fish Tikka, Seekh Kebab, Tarka Dahl and a Peshwari Naan. This was a very enjoyable meal and, unusually for me, I preferred it to a lunch I had in Chinatown a few days earlier. This is not perhaps quite the cheapest curry house in the area but there is more choice than some other places and value and quality are every bit as good.

Came in and was very nicely presented, the staff are very friendly and helpful. We got pomadoms, flaming grill platter for two and main dishes of lamb Biriani rice and omlette chicken tikka and spicy chips served with gorgeous side salad. Food was to die for honestly 5 stars for this place. Definitely recommend this place and we are certainly coming back :D

This is the second time I have been here although my partner regularly visits here . It was a busy Saturday night but they still fitted us in . The staff are lovely and friendly the service is excellent.This is the best Indian food I have ever tasted , not greasy or full of orange dye on the chicken that I’ve experienced in the past . The sharing starter is delicious, the tikka masala is to die for and the best Peshwari naan I’ve ever had . Definitely be returning ASAP.

This was our first visit on Friday night. We were greeted by the very friendly staff and shown to our table. The menu was varied with some interesting dishes on too! I chose a sizzling salmon Tandoori dish and I have to say it was delicious my partner had chicken dansak ( he always gets this!) and he said it was the best he’s ever had! The restaurant is very nicely done and the staff very attentive. Can’t wait to visit again hopefully very soon!

Ordered a takeaway delivered from the Forts last night and it was excellent. The food was delivered promptly and politely, exactly as ordered, and I particular liked that on placing my telephone order, I was told how much it would cost. All the food tasted fresh, it was well packaged and still hot, and the curry had generous amounts of chicken and a good spicy kick. Sides were all good. No criticisms at all, and would happily order again

Had a lovely Family meal with excellent customer service and the dishes filled us up. Wonder if they do Halal for future meal

Yesterday we decided to go for dinner with my husband and little after work(both work in indian restaurant an really love indian food). When we arrived at restaurant around 18.45 only couple of tables in. After couple of minutes someone arrived to take our drinks order and i asked what kids menu options are person said that he doesn't know and someone will come to take food order. After 5 more mins another person arrived to take food order. He told me that there was nuggets, fish fingers and curry. When asked if curry was mild was assured that yes it's mild. So ordered kids menu. Kids curry came spicy so she couldn't eat it. Had to order something else. Our starters took 20min to arrive king butterfly prawns was mainly only breadcrumbs and tandoori chicken tasteless. Then was left waiting for mains for 45min. In mean time one of waiters came and said "so you all finished" i was like "no we still waiting for our mains and we still want to keep chips" he said "so why then you have chips and curry at the table?" My husband said that that's child food but he still kept trying to remove it. I went really annoyed and was like can you leave child food alone. So finally he understood and left. When it came to bill we were charged for extra things which we haven't had. When mentioned to server he wasn't really pleasant but removed extra stuff. Service was horrible but at least mains were good. Definitely not going there again.

Went with family twice in one week. The food was great. The service was good. Great menu to choose from. It’s really worth a trip there. Enjoy. Me

Great food as always and lots of people agreed as it was very busy for the Sunday Buffet , with lots of families in having the food. Easy to find in Whitefield and great to use for meet ups with friends or family, Food very Hot and Spiced but I tend to have Korma as it’s not too hot and I do like Dansak too , but others like very hot food and this was great for them too. Staff very nice guys and place very pleasant and very clean .

Nice restaurant, with superb staff offering some great traditional and non traditional recipes Indian and Pakistani recipies.

This is an excellent Indian cuisine restaurant. Attentive staff and very good food served hot and delicious.

Any restaurant serving frozen Samosas deserves no star. Makes you wonder what else is bought from the cash and carry. Very poor!!!!

Since moving to Bury in November 2015 I have regularly visited three Indian restaurants and alternate according to my mood. If I want somewhere within walking distance with a pub type atmosphere 'The Jewel in the Crown' gets the vote but if I want somewhere for a family party the 'Armaan' in Radcliffe gets it. If, however, the quality of the food is what matters the 'Forts' is the place. The food is very enjoyable in all three places but this place has a small but definite edge. I last visited on Thursday (28.2.19) and had Chicken Liver Tikka, Chicken Haandi with Lemon Rice while my friend had Fish Pakora, Balti Mix and a Chapati and we shared a side dish of Tarka Dhal. The atmosphere is usually fairly sedate and vale is excellent.

Lovely curry at the forts of India , would highly recommended it , great service , food was lovely , lovely place give it a try won’t be disappointed

A great local Indian for me. Since moving to Whitefield in 2017, I have visited this restaurant 10/11 times - It never disappoints. The food quality is always good, the flavours are delightful and the menu selection is varied. It is nice to have an Indian on the doorstep which provides high end presentation to Indian food and quality cooking with an exciting menu. It is something different to a lot of Indians you can visit.Would definitely recommend this place to anyone local looking for a quality, high end Indian.Service is always polite although a little quiet (Conversation-less). The ambience/style of the restaurant is nice (Albeit a little try hard) and it is always a busy/bustling atmosphere. I also think despite being a little higher in price than some other local Indian restaurants, it is very good value for money.Some of the clientele is sometimes questionable - but they can't help that! Lol! Highly recommend and will continue to visit so long as I live local.

Had a great time here, been on many different occasions and we love it! The food is always very tasty and the service is always immaculate.

We had a table booked for 7.45pm, were seated and orders taken within reasonable time. Popadoms came before the drinks which we had to ask again for. When they eventually brought the drinks, one had sold out so my friend had to order something else. About 15 minutes after we finished the popadoms we were told that the mushroom starter 2 of us had ordered was sold out and were asked to choose something else. We declined as we didn’t fancy anything else. About 15 mins after this the starters arrived, including 2 onion bhajees on the house as the mushroom was sold out, which was kind of them but we didn’t really want them. Time was passing and we were waiting and waiting for the mains. Asked a couple of times and were told they were short staffed and the food would be here soon. No apology. Mains finally arrived at 9.35pm, almost 2 hours after we arrived. Food was nice enough but we were past being hungry. Many other tables were also waiting an hour or longer for their food and were getting impatient.When the bill arrived they had charged us for the 2 mushroom starters that we didn’t have as they were sold out, plus we were charged £12 for 2 bottles of beer that we hadn’t ordered. No apology, they just said they will take it off the bill. We had 3 different stories off the waiter, and what we assume were the manager and the owner about why they were short staffed!!! They couldn’t even get their excuses to match, and only a forced apology as we left. We have been here many many times before but never again. If they are short staffed and know there’s going to be a delay, they should advise us when we arrive. And they should agree on the same story to tell the customers!!! And at least pretend to be sorry and offer an apology. Its a shame as the food is nice but being charged an extra £24 or so on top of horrendously poor service and them not seeming to care.......

Got to say that our meal tonight was faultless. Six of us ate here and not one of us had anything negative. Most of us thought it was one of the best meals of this type we have had. I had the Balti Naga and thanks for once the spice was not numbed down, brilliant. Service by the staff was excellent and very friendly. They do kingfisher which I prefer. Also they served the soft drinks in bottles. My soda and lime was fevertree, two small bottles. Very nice. Loved everything about tonight. Thanks and well done.

No matter what you have to eat it is always excellent. I have recently undergone major surgery so are having the food as a take away. The quality and delivery are of the same excellent standard

My Review in March was excellent. VERY VERY poor quality chicken .The boiled rice was Not Basmati Rice & appeared to be uncle bens from the local supermarket. Service was good .

We were visiting friends in Bury and had pre booked a table at this establishment, after reading a few negative reviews i was weary , but shock horror we arrived were seated straight away, plenty of waiting staff, music was okay we could hear our conversation.When the food came it was delicious everyone of us cleared our plate. Would recommend this restaurant great food and service , I will be coming back on my visits up North...

Absolutely brilliant! Nice surroundings, pleasant staff and the best chicken rogan josh Iv had in a long time. Will definitely return again

I recently followed forts on instagram and they sent me a 25 percent discount off, food bill.I have got to say food was nice, i tried the new Lamb momo, it was too exceedingly good.Staff were very polite, and food xame out on time.Thanks boys

We have visited here for many years, however only tend to go on special occasions as the interior is lovely and makes it feel like quite an upmarket place. However last night we were disappointed and decided we wouldn’t be returning. The service was VERY slow, we waited 50 minutes for our main meal to come, and the place wasn’t completely full. Then, when the food came it was nice enough and saucy, however the flavour was quite lacking. Another table around us sent the food back and most had to wait a long time so it wasn’t just us. A shame really.

I don’t really like leaving negative reviews. I’d much rather leave good ones. But last night I am afraid to say we had frankly the worst Indian meal we’ve ever had anywhere. Not only was the service incredibly slow but the food was utterly bland and incredibly tasteless. How an Indian restaurant that prides itself on its Baltis can serve up such a poor tasteless Chicken Balti is beyond me. It was just as if they had run out of ingredients, had run across to the local cheap supermarket, and bought the cheapest most basic curry on offer and served it up in their own dishes. And they charged us full price for the privilege. We are almost certain that the pilau rice was packet rice as well. The chicken pakora starter tasted only of batter and the ‘chicken’ inside, although coated in something red, tasted literally like water. Where on earth was the flavour? I am sorry to have to say this but that food was awful and it needs to be said. Keep well clear of this place. We certainly will in future. Terrible.

I have just tried to order an Indian Take away and was told to That he had a restaurant full of customers and a number of customers trying to get through on the phone so I had to hurry up. If you are offering a take away service then make sure that you have capacity within your workforce to facilitate the service!

Visited the Forts of India yesterday (14.8.18) and had an excellent meal consisting of king prawn butterfly and chicken haandi with pilau rice. The meal also included a poppadum, a pickle tray and a soft drink for £27.50 (including tip). All this in pleasant surroundings with friendly helpful service. What’s not to like?

I went with my girlfriend to this restaurant after reading reviews here and found the food underwhelming. There was nothing wrong with it but it didn't have any wow factor. The service was ok and the waiters were nice

Myself and my boyfriend LOVE a good curry..... After trying probably every curry house in bury we always order from the same one, stick to What you know as they say! However we decided to try flavours of India after seeing it on Facebook, wow did it not disappoint, tasty, fresh and big portions! Wouldn’t 100% recommend!

Very slow service for food and drinks despite not being full. Food was tasty though. Would recommend takeaway

I visited the Forts of India in Whitefield yesterday (31.5.18) and had a seekh kebab and king prawn samber with lemon rice; I also had a popadom, pickle tray and a couple of soft drinks for a cost of £29.15 without tip or service. I first had a samber, a fairly hot curry based on lentils and lemon juice, at the old Manzil in Ardwick which supplied curry paste etc to Manchester shops under the Nazir's brand name. This was an excellent version of the dish with plenty of prawns in a very tasty, hottish sauce. I like to keep the pickle tray to enjoy with the main course as I find the mango chutney and the yoghurt soothes my palate especially with a hotter curry. A very enjoyable and inexpensive meal in pleasant surroundings.

We visit at least once every two weeks and often once a week. Ash and his team are very attentive and always willing to go that extra mile to make the experience a good one. We've never had a bad meal or even an average meal. It's always been top drawer. Reasonably priced as well.

A really good place for Indian food. The food is excellent. The staff are charming. Good atmosphere.

We visited here on a Thursday evening after travelling to a restaurant close by, which we hadn’t realised had changed hands. We were warmly greeted and sat straight away. The food was absolutely fantastic!! Sometimes curry’s can be a bit hit or miss but we both loved our dishes and shared starter!! I will certainly be making the 40 min trip back over to this place again! Thank you very much.

Never quite sure whether I prefer the Forts of India or The Jewel in the Crown but on this occasion the more sedate atmosphere of the Forts tipped the balance. I ordered a King Prawn Butterfly starter and a Tandoori Mixed Grill which comes with your choice of curry sauce, in this case Bhuna, and a Peshwari Naan. The starter consisted of two prawns, but they were very big ones, three or four bites each and were great in lovely crisp breadcrumbs with yoghurt and a salad. The Tandoori Mixed Grill comprised tandoori chicken, chicken tikka, lamb tikka, a lamb chop and shashlik kebab. Everything was well up to expectations, the Peshwari Naan was possibly the best I’ve ever had, and the meat was all good; OK the lamb tikka was a bit chewy, but I’ve never yet been in an Indian where it wasn’t. Overall, very good value at £28 including service.

We enjoyed our visit good food & service . One of the best madras curries I have had in a long time full of flavour and served piping hot.Great pint of kingfisher well kept.We were not disappointed and will call in again when in the area.Thanks for a nice evening.

Horrible place to be in would never recommend staff take wrong orders which ruined my meal would never be there again

Visited on a Friday night, the restaurant was busy however the service was still good and the food was delicious! Will definitely be going again.

Just the best restaurant in Whitefield, in the world..... Menu is fantastic Not the cheapest food but definitely the best quality Lovely surroundings. Friendly staff A delight. You must go to the Forts of India... Naan bread to die for, light and delicious.

After requesting a table for a family celebration I received a telephone call from the manager who confirmed the booking. He explained if we had the two booths we could have the table for as long as we needed. On arrival we were rudely informed by staff that as it was a Saturday night we had 1 hour and 50 minutes to eat and we would have to leave. When we explained that we were informed we could have the table as long as we needed he basically told us tough! After a heated discussion we decided that we would leave and celebrate our evening elsewhere.The manager said we wouldn’t get anywhere at short notice and they would also make us leave the table after two hours. When we informed management we would be leaving he suddenly changed his mind offered the table for longer, apologised and said we could have drinks in the bar after!! Too little too late!! We shouldn’t have been misinformed on the telephone and we shouldn’t have had to argue to secure the table for more than 1 hour 50 minutes. So after immediately securing a table elsewhere which included excellent servicethey will be getting a good review!!!!

Our first Sunday buffet here as we live walking distance to another place in the area but fancied a change. Really nice food, the chicken saschlick was gorgeous. Help yourself to starters, mains and ice cream including naan, pilau rice and salad for 11.99. Not too rammed and a nice kingfisher or two :)

Yesterday (18.1.18) I visited the Forts of India in Whitefield and had a tandoori mixed starter (chicken tikka, lamb tikka and a kebab) followed by chicken haandi and lemon rice. This was a very good meal for twenty-four quid including a tip at one of my favourite Indians. Believe it or not a good curry is slightly cheaper at the ‘Jewel in the Crown’ in Bury but I still can’t make my mind up which I prefer overall. To some extent it’s down to whether on the night I happen to be in the mood for the slightly more sedate atmosphere here or whether I fancy the more matey, cheap and cheerful reception at the ‘Jool’.

Good service nice decor ...But tasteless food All the curries we ordered tasted the same very bland The Tatka daal we couldn't eat and sent back Very disappointed as has good reviews and very established ?

We love visiting this restaurant, the staff are always friendly and polite. The food is fantastic and great value.

Visited the ‘Forts of India’ in Whitefield on Tuesday (31.10.17) and had the mixed kebab starter and Chingri (prawn) Badshah with a Peshwari Naan. This is just a little bit more up market than the average curry house, the menu is more extensive (and slightly more expensive), the décor is better, but it still retains the basic curry house virtues of good, filling, tasty food at extremely reasonable prices. It isn’t the only decent Indian in the Bury area but it is definitely one of the better ones.

Everything about our visit to Forts of India tonight was just average. I booked online and we were told when we arrived that the booking hadn't been passed on to the restaurant, they seemed a bit annoyed by this but fitted us in, to be honest they could have fitted a dozen people in! The restaurant was busy but there were empty tables. Waiting on staff wandered around seemingly not looking for things to do. To be fair everything was ok. Its not the best Indian restaurant around but it's not the worst. Perhaps a special offer might tempt us back, or then again....

Absolutely AMAZING FOOD, great service... 100% recommended!!!! I usually go Akbar’s in Manchester for Indian food but finally got to go to Forts of India in Whitefield and it’s really really good.

Tried the Sunday buffet with some reluctance as these are generally not too good, however very pleasantly surprised by the selection and quality of the food and will definitely return

No ramp to gain access to restaurant two steps into a small area to open door to gain access - not a good start. Hadn't booked but were able to get seated - plenty of empty tables during on on exit ???Got a seat on main floor but still steps to negotiate for buffet - had to get somebody else to tell me what was available and what to get me.Staff great one good thing about restaurant food excellent but too much hassle to want to go again.If no mobility issues great but its not for me sadly.

I've eaten here before and everything was great, but was disappointed this time. Unfortunately there isn't an 'overall rating' to cover this visit, hence I've put Average.My friend and I popped in for a meal on Saturday evening around 8.15-ish , expecting it to be busy and to have to wait for a table. It wasn't a planned visit but we were in the area, which is why we just turned up. We were told there'd be a 20 minute wait which was fine with us. After five minutes we were taken to a table and by now there were one or two free tables. A young lady quickly came to take our drinks order, but didn't seem to know what was sold when we asked for an non alcoholic beer and a tomato juice - strangely for a restaurant with a bar neither were on offer.Then we waited. We had to ask several times if we could place our food order. Then we waited some more for it to be delivered to our table. Eventually the pappadums came with the pickle tray and a while later the starter. Two gentlemen at a table near to us were so fed up with waiting for their main course they got up to leave, but returned to the table accompanied by a member of staff and got the food served to them. From what I heard they'd been waiting about an hour. Lucky we had the starter because then we had another wait for our main course, which we chased a couple of times. By now it was almost 9.30pm and the restaurant was hardly busy.I must say that the food is very good here, but if the service continues like this I shan't be returning. One other thing, I noticed that when the waiter was offering the hot towels to the two men at the next table at the end of the meal, he opened the sachet and pulled out the towel handing it to each of them. He should have only opened the sachet and offered the towel to the client to remove himself, keeping it untouched by someone else. Yes, I pointed it out to him - couldn't help myself!!!!Should someone from the restaurant read this, I'd also like to point out that just because the pappadums are finished please ask you staff not to try to keep taking away the pickle tray. It's been paid for as a tray, not by a few spoons of pickle or sauce, so leave it on the table for your clients to use as an accompaniment to other courses. Thanks.

Forts is by far the best Indian Restaurant around in my opinion, both the eat in restaurant and the take away are always first class.. A must eat place if you like Indian Cuisine

Easy to book . Friendly staff. Good range in on site made curries and non curry dishes. Nice decor and quick friendly staff. Prices are ok and good drinks range. Also does great takeaway and gives a free bottle of Cobra !

Went for a meal with my husband and daughter to Forts of India. What a delicious and enjoyable experience. My husband and I chose the Nawabi tandoori masala , ( tandoori chicken off the bone , cooked in a mild and creamy sauce using cashew nuts, almonds and galiane liquor and a special blend of tandoori sauce. Absolutely delicious, a great sweet meal. My daughter had the chicken Korma, and enjoyed every mouth full. Had a lovely table in the window, next to the waterfall display. With great view of the local area. Service was great, very attentive. Would definitely go again

El restaurante es muy agradable, moderno y limpio. La comida es muy buena sin ser excepcional, y está en la cara. Sin embargo, fue una agradable cena y volvería otra vez. La única cosa que yo no haría es un entrante. Con nuestro grupo todos tuvimos el plato a compartir que mezclado me pareció muy caro para lo que nos dieron, y sospecho que todas las otras entradas son las mismas. Volvería sin un entrante y un plato vegetariano adicionales tienen un lado con mi principal.

El director era grosero y poco servicial, arrogante más allá de cualquier cosa que he experimentado. El personal de decir lo que les hace decir, provocan también son groseros, pero el personal es muy asustado de él. Si no te gusta la comida no me quejo, a menos que quieras un abuso. Incluso me dio una segunda oportunidad y eran groseros de nuevo porque me acordé de la primera vez que me quejé. Si el propietario de este lugar me saco todo el personal y comenzar de nuevo.He estado muchas veces a lo largo de los años y que ha sido excelente, pero los últimos 6 meses, el lugar tiene peor y peor.

Llamado en 7. 30 El jueves por la noche y el lugar estaba relativamente tranquilo. Equipado con grandes bastante bien desde la ventana. Tenía el pollo tandoori para comenzar con la que estaba en el hueso y a diferencia de los habituales fresco pollo reconstituido. Platos principales de fantasma Dhall que era muy bonita con la lentejas el dente. Habituales de arroz y pan de acompañamiento de la comida. El precio era relativa. Me gustaría volver? Quizás. . . . .

Visitamos aquí recientemente habíamos reservado una mesa antes incluso semanas confirmando el día antes que a la llegada no estaba preparada para nosotros. Que fue la primera poco toda la noche de mal servicio al cliente. Queríamos tener bebidas mientras se espera el resto de nuestro grupo y nos dijeron que no podíamos usar efectivo en el bar a pagar por estos tendrían que ser añadidos a la factura mesa nunca había estado en ningún sitio donde se puede comprar bebidas en el bar! Sólo puedo asumir que es para agregar más cargo por servicio a la cuenta! ! El servicio era muy lento, muy caótica en numerosas ocasiones durante toda la noche la comida estaba bien, pero el pésimo servicio que recibimos nuestra noche completamente eclipsado y no volveríamos aquí también las bebidas a precios son exorbitantes.

Curry hot but nice takeaway good and quick good restaurant full widow view good seating system for all family functions good buffet style food

I have been visiting this eatery for over 20 years, and i have to say it gets better and better. good managment excellent surrounding and clean well presented food, nothing else you need to say really, i highly recommend

Un lugar muy agradable para visitar. La comida es muy buena y está recién hecho y venga a la mesa bien caliente. El personal es amable y siempre ver a sus necesidades. El restaurante en sí es limpio y yo siempre los aseos en restaurantes de esta manera no pueden medir cómo limpio el lugar. A decir que muy limpio

Food was really good and never disappoints. Nice big booth to sit in as we were with friends and really good customer service. Forts of India never disappoints

I liked that the food wasn't too greasy. I ordered two vegetarian sides and a vegetable pilau. Generous portions and took half of it home. No problems here.

We have eaten here many times and have always had lovely food and great service in lovely surroundings. Would recommend.

Este es un encantador restaurante para comer. Es un ambiente moderno y muy agradable, que es luminoso y muy elegante. El personal es educado y amable, y el servicio es muy bueno. También tienen en proyecto que está Kingfisher una recomendación en mi libro! Los aperitivos eran muy bonitas. Tuvimos también la verduras y poppadums y mezclado fuente. En particular no me gustó mi plato, que era un plato nawabi, y lo que pensé que le faltaba carácter. Es un ambiente encantador para hablar y ponerse al día, así que en conjunto un muy agradable.

Lovely quality food in nice surroundings, good service from polite and friendly staff. The restaurant was clean and well run with a good choice of menu the setting is spacious with a good atmosphere.

Excellent food and service as always.

The venue is very pleasant, great decor, polite and helpful staff. Food was ok and we had a nice meal, think the food needs more thought, i think it could have been a lot better.
