Grand Indian Lounge in Leeds

What an utter joke…waited 50 mins for starter. Main course was lukewarm at best, tasteless and congealed. Rubbish, don’t waste you hard earned cash!

Visited the grand Indian on Valentine's it started well got our popadoms and pickle tray drinks gent serving us was lovey he brought are startes which was really nice we then didn't see him again after starters were cleared we then waited nearly 40 mins for our main course which was like warm and just plonked on the table .. we was supposed to get ice cream or coffee but after a further 35 minutes of waiting we was ready to leave we was offered some Bailey's shot when we asked for the bill we waited another 20 mins for the bill we got there at 6:10pm and it was 8:50 by the time we payed service was next to nothing food on par with a local take away not how we wanted to spend 3 hours of our night for a simple meal

We have supported the Grand Indian for a while now but think it’s time to find a new takeaway. Whether ordering through the app or on the phone, don’t tell me 25 mins & then leave me waiting an hour. It’s getting to be a habit - disappointing

Food was great but very overpriced for the size of portion you get in the mains. 11.99 for a tikka masala that had about 6 bits of chicken in. Staff were very attentive and couldn't ask for more but a bit out of our budget compared to other Indian restaurants in the area .

Visited this restaurant with a group of friends. The reviews were good and it certainly lived up to the hype. Lovely staff, friendly and attentive and the food was superb. Nice size portions and came out hot. I’d highly recommend the breads, we had rotis and garlic naan bread, awesome? Desert menu was terrific, just about everything you could want. We will definitely be going back 10/10

Fantastic restaurant I travel from Bradford to come here! Staff are super friendly amd helpful. The chefs can make you anything to your taste. After 15 years living in London and bradford by far my favourite Indian restaurant to date

Lovely food, great staff,always made to feel welcome.

What’s not to like. One of the best curry houses and very imaginative. Brian’s curry aside, go there to see what a Brian’s curry is about, how about beetroot chicken curry? Yes I thought odd and not for me, as I don’t like beetroot. WELL I DO NOW. A signature dish and very different. Staff very friendly. Buy a voucher for your friends as a present.

We was staying in holiday inn down the road and this was literally a few minutes down the road from us. The building is clean, spacious and inviting. The service was really good from the minute we walked in, to drinks and food etc. The food was absolutely amazing. Everything had so much flavour. We ordered too much but we really enjoyed everything we had and if we do ever come back to Garforth we will definitely be coming back for an Indian. The best Indian we’ve had and we have tried many Indians! 10/10

Service is spot on if you dine in. If you order take out, don't expect your order to be ready for the time you requested. Each time I go, I wait for 15- 20 mins after schedule time to have to ask where my order is to be told it is being bagged up & to take a seat. On this occasion, 3 other orders waiting a long time for online orders.

Expensive. Very pleasant staff

Had meals here 3/4 times now. The staff are always very welcoming and the food is always on point!

Food was absoulutly scrumptious and staff were very freindly and chatty probbaly one of the best indian restarants i will ever go to

I have been here several times to eat in and take away. The food and service are always impeccable.

What can you say about The Grand Indian that hasn’t been said. The food is impeccable, the staff are absolutely and always amazing delivering quality food with nothing being too much trouble. We will continue to visit here in the years to come.

Amazing service, been coming here years, finally decided to bring my small children, one who has allergies and they were so accommodating. Food is amazing and staff are very pleasent. One of my favourite places to eat.

Fabulous place with good food and fantastic service will definitely return

Always great service and delicious food!

One of the best around Leeds 26, I normally go for a Madras, this time we had a chicken Bhuna and a Chicken Balti to see the difference. Not too hot, plenty of flavour, and the Garlic Nann was out of this world, well worth a visit, we will return at the end of August, but we can't make it any sooner due to work.

First time visit ,made to feel very welcome by front of house ,food was excellent ,very tasty and hot . Staff were pleasant and weren't pushy, making you feel like you need to hurry up like some other places in the area. All in all we would recommend this place and will be returning soon

We have supported the GIL since opening and have some very fond memories of family meals. fantastic pickle tray good starters and garlic nan Main course curry a bit hit and miss with flavour and chicken quality, but the owner and staff made up for it,. We wanted to book for a family 60th and retirement ,the total number was 32 plus one highchair and one wheelchair. We rang on Sunday 9th July at 5.25 to be told by a member of staff they did not have a ramp so the wheelchair user could not gain access he could not have cared less. Do not want to cause any embarrassment to the person in the wheel chair by lifting her out and up the two steps,so we have booked elsewhere.Can i say this is the first time ever we have encountered this problem, always staff have supplied a portable ramp and we have been welcomed . SO hurt by the staffs attitude, SHAME ON THEM WHAT HAPPENED TO DISABLED EQUALITY ACT!?? On average we spend £25/£30 pr head plus drinks when we visit. The bill would have been in total around £950. Surprised they can afford to turn custom away , on our last two visits there were just two other people in at 8pm. Oh well, all things come to a end. We will be trying a recommended one nearby. 1 CURRY ITSELF HIT AND MISS

Gave this Indian 4 chances now, needless to say it hasn’t got better at all. In fact, it’s getting worse. The food is terrible and the sauce in the curry is non existent. The staff are fine but the food is what you go for and that’s not enough to lure me back anymore.

Just returned from a lovely evening at Grand Indian Lounge with my husband and our 11 year old son. We took advantage of the Wednesday Special 4 course meal for £16:95 per person which is incredible value for money. The food was absolutely delicious and definitely the best Indian food, in our opinion, in the area. The only thing better than the food was the service! Every single member of staff spoke with us at some point and were so friendly and welcoming. We had a great evening and can't wait to return again soon!

Beautiful food, outstanding service, polite, welcoming, and very friendly staff. Highly recommend 5* from me.

Wow, what a lovely meal here! The mixed grill starter was amazing and the curries had a great flavour but were a little thick/dry. Would try some different dishes next time and also try to go on a banquet set price evening - not sure what days of the week they are though.

Visited for the first time. Had a family member that had a birthday and the staff took the cake and played along with the surprise. The food was fantastic and the service impeccable. Best curry we have had for years. A must visit if you are in the area!!!

I’ve been to many Indian restaurants but non come close to this place the food and staff alike are fantastic, 5 star every time

First class food and service. We'll be back

Great quality meals and super friendly service, definitely recommended. We all had the Wednesday special menu that was starter, main, side and ice cream. I'm stuffed!

Excellent service. Tasty good quality food. Would recommend.

The food was nice, took awhile to get courses, might of been down to take outs but all in all it was alright

This restaurant has really gone downhill!Waited over an hour and a half for 4 mains despite chasing twice. Food was pretty bland too. You're better off going to Table 26 across the road, as the food and service is 100x better. I contacted Grand Indian about my experience and they didn't even bother to reply. Won't be returning. Very disappointing.

Another great meal with friends at the Grand Indian. We are always made welcome here and the staff are very attentive. Would recommend this restaurant.

Was our first visit last night. amazing place, fabulous stuff the food it’s just right also very clean. I’m very happy to found this place. Look like it’s gonna be my favorite Indian restaurant.

My opinion is of an average food average Indian nothing special and definitely not the worst 3/5

Absolutely fantastic meal, friendly staff, will definitely be going back again!

Had mixed starter for two 10.95 and rhubarb chicken 10.95 stuffed paratha 3.40 and pickle tray with four poppadoms 5.95. outstanding quality and service one of the best curries I have ever had. Two people prices per dish. Kingfisher 4.50 per pint approx.

What a fabulous night we had at the Grand Indian Lounge celebrating our sons 18th birthday. The food was amazing and the staff all went above & beyond taking care of us. Highly recommend and a big thank you to all.

always a great welcome from this place, The Chef Royal King Prawns are the tastiest i have ever had!

Not the best, from popadoms to starter to curry. Had my first and last meal there.

Best balti I’ve had, brilliant food and service, would definitely recommend and will be revisiting soon!

Food ok, but service takes far too long. Been twice now and on both occasions waited over an hour for starters.

Amazing food and service as usual!

Visited tonight for my Husband’s 50th Birthday. 10/10 as usual-food is always top notch and service. Has been my favourite indian food restaurant from when it opened and will continue to be so.

On a cold January night we were made to feel welcome by friendly staff, especially Enam, who ensured everything was just right. Food was excellent as normal.

Having visited Saturday, the experience was nothing like our last visit some time ago. Chaos is the only word which can describe it. They seemed to be far too under staffed meaning the service was far too slow. We were all sat with empty drinks...

I went with 2 of my friends to eat there , we enjoyed the food and the staff very polite and friendly, i would recommend to anyone to experience for themselves. We would definitely go back again.

We've been going to this indian for a very longtime now.. Once a month taking a minimum of 20 people everytime. Firstly we sat at our confirmed table. Had the poppadom round then around 30 minutes later we were told we all had to move...

A family birthday meal ruined. Service was terrible most avoided us after moving our table. Took 1hr to order starters and mains. 2 hours before food was served to be told rhe childrens meals were out of stock. 30 minutes to order a drink. Blue...

Worse Indian EVER… arrived 6:20pm and the restaurant was 1/3 full. When we tried to ask about the menu the waiter said he didn’t know and walked away. Only ordered a main course but after having to go and ask at the bar TWICE (...

Went here with family one weekend. Food was ok but nothing special. The restaurant was cold and we ate with coats on. We went late on and was one of the last in there . Maybe we were unlucky but I won't be going again...

Not has nice has it once was. Service not good. Staff not friendly. I won't be back

Service was horrific and our food was cold , said we would pick up and still got charged delivery

Christmas day booked in for 3.30. Stood outside for 35 min in the cold,waiting to get in.When we did get inside there was on man serving drinks which was why 25 people couldn't get in to the restaurant.Many of those waiting were elderly and were struggling to stand for so long.The place was under staffed and total mayhem. When I got to the front of the que I made my views known to a member of staff and demanded my £20 deposit returnd to me.I would not recommend this place to anybody. Felt like a sheep herded to the slaughter.Very poor way to treat so many customers paying £35 on Christmas day.Shame on who ever was in charge.Looked to me like the only interest they had was to get your money.

We rarely get our deliveries on time but tonight it came over 1 hour late which isn't acceptable considering we ordered it 3 to 4hrs before the time. Then when it got to us we had to re-heat it all. Not impressed. The chips also tasted like they was from the night before, very hard and tasted reheated several times

Great food just slightly small portions, only downside was we were the very first people in the resteraunt ordered first but got our food 25mins after 4 tables that came in after us, other than that would definitely go again

This restaurant is brilliant lovely decor and the food is fabulous and staff are really nice

Fantastic meal, staff great. Really enjoyed

Our family have been loyal customers of this restaurant for years. The food is amazing but tonight the service was something else. Families around us were served three courses in the time we were waiting. We paid the bill in full and did not expect...

Absolutely fantastic meal this evening. Staff advised/talked my wife into eating a new dish outside her comfort zone and got it spot on. Highly recommend this place and will definitely be going again. Sooner rather than later. Five stars all day long.

The food is amazing and so are the staff I would definitely recommend this place 👌

Very nice meal and really friendly staff.

Have to say this is the best Indian restaurant I’ve ever been to . Staff were very welcoming, food was delicious it has everything you can ask for to be honest. Whoever is looking for a place to go eat around Wakefield/Leeds sides I highly...

Just got back from a beautiful meal here. Was recommended by a friend who's been going for years. Amazing food, fantastic friendly staff, will be definitely be back again soon and will recommend to everyone!!

Can’t believe it was 11 years ago I was here last , but wow what a difference from then to now . Loving the open plan , clean warm welcoming decor, just feels so welcoming and friendly . And the food was delicious, definitely going...

Had to come back to this delicious restaurant, the food is to die for, place is clean and more renovations have been done so looks more classy, but the service or the food standards have not changed, Imran recognised me straight away knowing i cone...

Consistently great food, especially the new mushroom starter!

Whilst visiting my parents for my birthday, I was brought to this absolutely amazing restaurant. From the friendliness and amazing sense of humour provided by the staff to the final bite of my "Rhubarb Lamb" curry (a unique creation I had never heard of before)...

Being going for years and can't recommend more, food is absolutely delicious 😋

I can honestly say that the Grand Indian Lounge at Swillington is the most friendly & and welcoming Indian Restaurant that my wife and I have ever been to. The staff are truly attentive and so welcoming, they just obviously want every customer to have...

Great food and friendly staff , highly recommend this restaurant.

Beautiful food, first class service.

Great food great service no problems

2nd time i've had takeaway from here. 1st time was ok but nothing special. This time was worse..........ordered the lamb tikka Rogan Josh and the lamb was like chewing through a leather boot. Won't be returning. I must admit I'm surprised by all the good reviews

Such good value for money, they never fail!

This place never disapoints. Food is excellent but the service is second to none. Fabulous decor. 👌

Excellent food with good service and at reasonable prices. If you like Indian cuisine certainly worth a visit.

Ordered a takeaway, first time this evening. It was awful, tasteless, dry and poor quality meat Couldn’t cut through the meat in the dishes. Soent £28 for a starter, a Mai meal, rice and naan. Would never use again. Went in the bin

Great food, first time dining tonight and Im looking forward to my next visit. Really happy with service, price and quality.

I don’t write reviews and it saddens me to write a bad review. The guys at this takeaway are really good hardworking people. I stopped using them a while ago, if I’m honest on that occasion it ended up in the bin. When I found...

For the location the food was OK. Did not understand why chicken livers had a sauce on it. Other than that all good.

First time at the grand Indian & was very impressed,food was beautiful & staff friendly & helpful,I will definitely go again & recommend to others.

Absolutely spot on! First time dining there for us & will 1000% go again! Food was lovely & staff extremely helpful and friendly. Highly recommend.

Great tasty food,service a little slow as it was very busy for Father's day.

This is my go to when it comes to Indian cuisine in Leeds, they're Bangladeshi which is 1 of many different takes on Indian food, they're situated in an old pub which allows for ample seating and space, plenty of parking and licensed to sell alcohol, I highly recommend the grand garlic balti and they do those massive family naan breads, the staff are very polite and friendly and Imran the owner is brilliant with kids

Up there with the best very friendly service and top class food

Amazing service from Imran and the team so attentive. Even better food... One of the best curries I've ever had. I live in the city centre and would say it was worth the travel

Imran and the team were so attentive! Amazing service. Food was also extremely delicious! Would highly recommend! I live in the city centre and would absolutely make the journey again. Thank you!

Traveled from Leeds while staying with family in on the strength of online reviews. Have to say the food was up there with the best not the cheapest but certainly one of the best . Staff were very friendly and the restaurant was spotless definitely...

Absolutely perfect meal, perfect food and staff are great

Absolutely Outstanding !! *****

Very clean, great food, can't fault

Fantastic evening. We were made to feel very welcome as soon as we walked through the door by Imran. We had onion barji and mixed kebab to start with both were absolutely delicious. The garlic chilli chicken was so tasty with a kick too. My husband's chicken Balti was also tasty and delicious. Inran asked us to be honest about the food and we were! He said he can make it just how you like it (saucy )and he delivered. Garlic nans with extra garlic absolutely scrummy. Will definitely be returning. Thankyou Imran

Haven’t been for Indian food for some time and following the closure of our local restaurant, we searched out a new one. How glad are we that we found the Grand Indian. Easy to find and with plenty of parking spaces, the initial signs were...

This gem is situated in Swillington. The chicken chat starter was awesome. Catch of the day mains which was a fish dish was just grand. So tasty and the sauce was a delight. The onion rice was the best I have had hands down. Will...

Always had a great meal every time.

Great food and great for eat in or take away

Amazing meal, lovely staff, worth the hype and trip, can't wait to return

Fantastic food and service. This must be on your list to visit!

Fantastic food excellent staff treated us like royalty when my friend and I went to celebrate our birthdays
