Indian Kitchen in Bristol, City of

Fantastic food and great service from very friendly staff. The lamb Hyderabadi biryani was the best I've ever had, and it was nice to have a choice between vegetable curry or raita as an accompaniment. Definitely recommend a visit.

We were the only diners here, although it was early. Who knows why because the food and the service are among the best Indian cuisine I've ever had. We will definitely be going back

Had a wonderful meal here on a Saturday night.My garlic chilli chicken was a delight.The butter chicken which my wife had was also extremely good.I am not a a fan of the usual sweet " lady " curries but i would have eaten her,s also it was so nice.All the meals were tasty & piping hot.The young lady serving was fabulous as well.She even put some regional music on for us as it adds to the ambience in an Indian restaurant.We will be back thank you again guys !

What can I say..... Staff were nice although one member was a little clueless....I asked for Courvoisier and coke...she brought the courvoisier and a pint sized glass of flat coke...after asking should she put water in it .. Poppadoms weren't the best, tasted either burnt or stale...dipping sauces weren't anything to write home about. Naan bread was AMAZING MAIN Meal wasn't memorable although edible. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing...I think I would go again just to confirm it wasn't anything special.

Wow wow wow! We live very close to Westbury on trym but haven’t been to Indian Kitchen before but so glad we did. The food was so amazing, so full of flavour and really different from normal curry houses. I would go as far to say a gourmet experience! The owner was so lovely and knowledgable about his food, he showed such passion and pride for his recipes when we asked what different things were on the menu. I haven’t experienced such excitement about a restaurant in a very long time. Can’t wait to go back again. Thank u for making my anniversary meal with my husband really really special. Xx

very happy with the takeaway it was good quality recommend it - the white rice is nice and it was done ontime the paneer and vegetarian curry were good - me and my family are mainly vegetarian. We live locally.

I planned a nice lunch with my daughter and for one reason or another we were both running late so picked this place solely because it opened at four. Great decision, fast service and lovely food. Highly recommended.

Ps I’m white- White young lad age 25 ish was non attentive to becoming our waiter. party of 5 of us all in customer service roles earning min 40k a year thought he was in wrong job ! Food was authentic , atmosphere was good but our waiter was wrong job role

Great restaurant and staff really attentive. Cooked our food to order and loved it. Shame don't live in Bristol, but I recommend Indian Kitchen. 11/10 for food and service & next time in Bristol I will be back

Vidaloo curry,is what I ordered,well got back home dished it up and to my first mouthful it was not a vidaloo,no heat meat hard. £30 wasted should of bought a pack of polo mint's they would of been hotter.

Great food, all freshly cooked and really obviously home recipes... I don't understand the bad reviews here, I just think they must be fake or really bad days. I have lived in India and this food is great, have eaten here many times!!!

I would never recommend this place to anyone unless I really disliked them! £26 for one person. The rice is re heated, slosh. Chicken tikka absolutely vile and the chicken isn’t normal; very tough, not fresh. Nan bread not fresh, so soggy. It’s not that the food didn’t have taste; rather the taste was absolutely disgusting 🤢 I know a half decent curry when I see one but this isn’t even something I’d feed to a dog!

Good to find a tasty place to eat in Westbury on Trym. Clean, modern decor with plenty of space between the tables. Nice waitress. I had a vegetarian spinach and paneer kofta in tomato sauce with egg fried rice and aubergine side dish. My husband had Chicken Labadar which was sliced chicken in a spicey sauce. We both enjoyed the food very much and found the portions were a good size. They also do takeaways. Prices are medium range.

Came here on the off chance after leaving the circus, first impressions was empty for a Saturday evening, thought we'd give it a go anyway. Menu was limited and nothing special and overpriced, the waiter seemed more preoccupied with what seemed like the owners daughters rather than our table, acting like a school boy drooling all over her. Main meals came, my children's and husbands main seemed OK, I ordered the chicken tikka masala, I took one mouthful and knew instantly how awful it was, I tried to be polite and eat some but the more I tried the more sick I felt, the chicken was a weird texture and was definitely not fresh, the sauce was simply vile and not fit to be served. We ordered pilau rice for the table, upon it arriving you could see it was reheated stodge and not fit for purpose. My family tried to eat theirs but all in all the whole experience from when we first walked in, to the service and meals being served was a disaster and definitely not somewhere I would EVER eat again. Officially the worst curry I have eaten in my life and I eat curry alot! Whoever rated this restaurant highly must not be curry eaters as what we had was not fit for human consumption.

Top quality food. A gem of a place

Had a most delicious meal last night at Indian House! We order the duck, the baby lamb chops, sag paneer and spiced rice. And we ate every bit of it! Also appreciated the presentation of the dishes with microgreens and pomegranate seeds. While the Indian House lacks in ambiance, it more than makes up for it with the well-prepared food!

Came to cheer up a friend. Food, service, and overall experience was very impressive. The kulfi (ice cream) was heavenly. Reasonable price, will definitely return.

Had a chicken dopiaza on Friday night at the Indian kitchen, nice decor but curry fell way way short of expectations, the word dopiaza means double onion but when dish arrived I struggled to find any onions and the dish tasted like spicy tomato soup. It’s a shame that now the Indian kitchen is the last remaining Indian in Westbury village it has no competition and is trying to be something it’s not and failing miserably. When my uneaten curry was collected the owner commented on it being hardly touched, I told him the curry bore no resemblance to a Dopiaza which he completely ignored and took my dish away. I will not be returning and have been recommended Cardamom Bay in Redland which will now be my default

I visited on Friday evening with my partner and the food was AMAZING! 😻 it’s the best I’ve ever had. Thank you so much!

Work team meal out ! One of our team had eaten here before and recommended it to the wider team. Normally closed on a Monday but they opened especially for us, other customers turned up so I think they had a good night. Nice clean, modern, comfortable restaurant, good food, pleasant service, would go back.

The food was amazing. Riya is one of the friendliest people. All the other staff was amazing too. Definitely recommend it. 10/10

1-food was extremely salty and burnt! 2- we asked to change it with less salty one the replacement was awful again! 3-the service and attendance was awful. 4-we asked for the bill, there were so many errors in the bill! 3-toilet facilities was not great! Hand drier was broken. Never recommend it!

Starters OK but 2 of 4 main dishes were terrible. The lamb chops were burnt (acually black on the outside), over salted and dry. The chicken tikka was so salty it was inedible and after tasting one piece was unable to eat anything else as was starting to feel sick. Never going back.

Best Indian restaurant in the area!!!! went for a meal with my wife and the food was amazing, the staff were very accommodating and friendly and the food portions were generous. Highly recommended

Ordered Chicken tikka takeaway for two and bitterly disappointed. 5 pieces each of cold chicken that clearly didn't see the tandoor oven. it was tough and insipid looking and with a very small amount of salad. Picked it up 7.30 on a Saturday evening and not a single customer in the Restaurant. Cost me £22 to find out why!! Won't see me again.

Delicious food, well presented. Great team who looked after us very well. Thank you!

Very friendly, very nice food, was perfect tbh perfect spice Chicken Jalfrazi lamb chops garlic Nan all very nice

Food was great but it took longer than Deliveroo said it would, I had to call to chase it and then they delivered without the drinks I ordered. I think they do the deliveries themselves which might be the problem. Nice man delivered the drinks though 10mins later. Like I said food was good, just let down by the delivery and missing some items

Superb Indian restaurant. Very bright and clean.

Lovely food l, nice staff but was disappointed with what they charged for mixers In drink, had rum and coke not more than a dash and they charged £2.95 per dash and also charged for an extra pint of Cobra that wasn't ordered .

Service was excellent, the food was freshly cooked and delicious. Good portion size and very nice environment.

First visit to the Indian kitchen in WOT village, I must say how impressed we were with how clean a d tidy it was, great service and top notch Indian food at its best the grilled seabass is outstanding ,our whole family had a great night with lovely service and extremely well cooked and full of flavour Indian food, I can highly recommend the food , mixed grill was another huge hit,if your a family like mine who enjoys good home cooked authentic Indian meals look no further then the Indian kitchen in Westbury on Trym, Bristol forthe best night .

Went for a meal out on a Friday night for two Good choice of food, served promptly, starter and main course.

Had a Friday night evening meal for two. Starter and a main course with side dishes. Prompt service, tasty meals and good portions. Would recommend.

Restaurant lovely, staff very polite and food was beautiful.

Restaurant with Delicious dishes.. in a calm quiet area. Parking on streets.

Excellent buffet, especially the spicy chicken wings and delicious curry selection!

I liked this restaurant but today I got a Jalfrezi with a chicken that was stinking and not fresh. I have ordered food here many times, but after today's experience, I won't take any chances. I've just been visited by someone from the restaurant with an apology and free food. He was told that an investigation was conducted and the problem was resolved. Due to the fact that the food was delicious before, I will change my opened from 1 to 3 stars. But since this should never happen, I have not accepted free food and will not be ordering here anymore. I hope they will more carefully in future.

A lovely restaurant with friendly staff, great service and most importantly fantastic food. Worth a visit or failing that, use the takeaway option

Amazing food. All the dishes fresh. Amazing staff, especially Riya Sharma 😀 and the Chef Suresh

Food is great and the staff are verry welcoming and helpful, they will even cater for special requests. 5 stars all round will be using this place again !

Lovely meal, staff very friendly although a little expensive but quality and quantity of the food was excellent will definitely be back. Thank you for a lovely meal.

One of the best Indian meals I've ever had! My husband had lamb saag and I had Veg Balti and they were both very good very nice.... Im not vegetarian but I usually find meat in curry not pleasant so I ordered veg curry as usual, but their lamb was so tender and lovely.

I went last night and the food was lovely. All natural colours. Freshly cooked and delicious flavours. Highly recommend. Great Indian food and lovely people!!

Amazing food, lovely staff and a beautiful restaurant. Best Butter Chicken I have ever had!

A great experience overall - Would definitely go back!

Very expensive for what you have

Delicious curry but unfortunately it was delivered with half of the sauce in the paper bag. Really disappointing. I remember last time we ordered there was a fair bit of spillage but this time it was even worse! Hopefully this can be looked into so that wherever the problem is it can be rectified.

Soft lovely music was playing when we arrived but soon stopped and we ate in silence. Food was lush, so tasty! We had scallops, chicken tikka, sag paneer, and onion bhaji’s.. We had poppadoms to start with and our fingers were a bit sticky so asked for something to wipe our hands with, there was nothing available so had to go to toilets to wash hands. Chicken tikka was a bit dry. Altogether a lovely experience, just wanted to give an honest review. Will definitely recommend and return.

This is absolutely the best curry house! The food is unique and varied and completely delicious; the staff are wonderful. Highly recommended!

Popped in here after a difficult monday, with no expectations except to be fed as we were stressed and hungry. Wow! We were treated to a delicious meal that was certainly the nicest we've had in ages. Plump prawns, beautifully spiced and a dish called chattinad which my husband just loved. 100% recommend and would certainly return... with everyone we know!

Amazing food, really friendly staff, just a great place to have an evening meal.

Since this restaurant was renamed ‘Indian Kitchen’, it has been our go to place for an excellent meal. Tonight, being my birthday we booked a table for our first meal out post lockdown. Oh dear, has this restaurant changed hands? The menu seems to have changed since I last went and the delicious bits of tasty lamb tikka starter were not mentioned. I plumped for onion bhaji. These were hard, crunchy and very over cooked. For my main meal I ordered Tandoori Chicken. There was no breast meat, just two small drumsticks and two thighs, there was no colour or taste to any of the meat, I left nearly all of it. My husband ordered some sort of duck curry and requested that it was served with plain rice and not the saffron rice. It came with the saffron rice! When he pointed this out the waiter grabbed a plate from another table and proceeded to scrape the saffron rice off of my husbands plate while it was still in front of him. My husband had to lean back or it would have gone into his lap. He was brought the correct rice, which was tipped onto his plate by the waiter. After taking a bite my husband left half of the food as the duck was over cooked and very tough. We were not really attended to or asked if everything was ok, so all in all I would now avoid this restaurant. Food and service really not up to much.

My husband’s cousin had had this restaurant recommended to him, so it seemed an ideal venue for a reunion where we could have good food and chat in a relaxed atmosphere. The decor was nice, and the service was very attentive. The young lady was most pleasant and even brought an addition to the table to hold our extra dishes /glasses. (A jug of water was brought as a matter of course).It had the top hygiene rating and I can confirm that the ladies toilet was very clean! We asked for recommendations, as some of the “signature dishes” were unfamiliar to us, but based on our usual choices in our home town, the gentleman gave us good advice. My Lamb Chattinad was spicily hot as requested and the meat was very tender. My husband had Chicken Lababdar and was very impressed with the amount of chicken breast , our host tried the Tawa duck as wanted something different and again was impressed with the quality of the meat. His wife had something with chicken and saag (spinach) and enjoyed hers too. I would say these curries are something special and not “run of the mill” and we enjoyed having something special.

Good food, excellent service, nice staff.

Overpriced and under flavoured. Thought we would try somewhere new and wish we hadn't. Really disappointed as the food was average but expensive for what we got. Wouldn't recommend and won't be ordering again unfortunately.

The best curry I've ever had and the ingredients are top quality. Suresh is a generally friendly bloke which comes out in his cooking. Unless I'm far away in a different country, I will never eat a curry any where else. The Americans have a saying. "If it ain't broke, don't try and fix it". So I won't, the "Indian Kitchen" will do for me...☆☆☆☆☆

We have just had a really delicious meal, tasty and a really well thought through menu. The chilli paneer was excellent!

The food was excellent with good service from an ever smiling staff. Will most certainly be eating here again!

Very friendly clean and food was Amazing

Really good food . Staff are really friendly and welcoming. Would definitely recommend.

went for a meal 31/7/21 straight away wr noticed a chap in a stripped shirt walking up and down like he was the manager ...he had a miserable face all night and not once did he smile ...aparenty he wasn.t the manager the manager was...

Fantastic food thoroughly recommended and friendly owners and staff

Delicious take away. One of the nicest curries I have had for a while

Wonderful variety and presentation of dishes, will certainly recommend

Another amazing curry from Indian kitchen tonight. Amazing food, great service and lovely people. Cant wait until they can open for meals in the restaurant. Cannot recommend these guys enough

DELICIOUS! So after noticing my local Indian takeaway slowly slipping in the taste department I looked for somewhere else and Googled best Indians in Bristol... Lots came up so I just opted for Indian Fast food as it was only about a 10 min drive. My wife and I absolutely loved it. The only constructive feedback is that the saag paneer could have been more garlicky and the onion bjhaji a tiny bit crunchier.

Amazing food and the highest quality of service. My new favourite Indian restaurant.

Can’t wait to eat here! Just had a takeaway (lockdown number 2). Best curry I have had in Bristol for years. Good mix of what English people expect and a good mix of authentic curry: whether Goan Fish, chicken Chattinad (checked spelling!), and Laal Mans....

Good quality curry, friendly service when I collected my takeaway!

Food suggestion from the waiter, chicken chattinad, was excellent: medium with explosions of flavour from the spices. I had some chickpeas as a side dish as well as rice, but I was struggling to finish because the portions were generous. Very friendly service.

Absolutely fantastic Indian. The service was brilliant and the food was lovely. I will highly recommend to my family and friends!

Nice restaurant with good ambiance. Food was tasty

Nice place unfortunately the food was bland & pretty tasteless. So disappointed .how difficult is it to get a great tasting curry .not cheap either

Very welcoming & organised with present situation,fantastic food with nice time between courses.Recomended

The staff were great fun and very friendly and helpful .The restaurant has only been open for about a year. Its very local to us and definitely a must go to for fine Indian cuisine .Very nice place .

Excellent food and service, I would definitely recommend a visit.

I came here with a big group of friends, and after half an hour I had to ask for tap water and they said it would be a 10 minute wait. After another 15 minutes I asked if we could order and they said no...

Delicious food and service was excellent. Food came quickly and we all enjoyed everything. Head chef came out for a quick chat which was a nice touch! Definitely worth a visit.

Absolutely delicious food.. Felt like we were being rushed though. Was only eating starters and was told main courses were on their way. Had just finished food and was still finishing our drinks but they wanted to clean down the table. Just felt like they wanted us out as quickly as possible. I understand the need for cleanliness at this time.. But could have given us 5 more mins.. So we left our drinks and left

Nice clean friendly .but unfortunately food was not good .madras had no flavour very salty .masala tasted like tomato soup. Wouldn't eat there again

Nice clean looking place let down by terrible food .madras was salty no flavour bit of a mush .masala tasted like tomato soup .wont be eating there again.

Lovely food and friendly service.

A superb meal with a warm welcome. Very nice food, well presented. Tasty, but not greasy. Yummy! I would recommend

Tried this for first time last night. Both my husband and I have said best Indian we have had. Home delivery due to lock down. Ordering process easy. Timely delivery. The quality, flavour and quantity was outstanding. More expensive than others but well worth the...

Absolutely disgusted with this service. I was ordering for a vulnerable adult living a 5 minute drive away who is self isolating like many on their birthday. Spent 45 pounds on a meal and rang the restaurant to confirm the delivery address. Having provided the address I got told off over the phone for asking them to deliver to an area they dont deliver to. Instead I suggested the order be cancelled which they refused too! They then asked how much more was I willing to pay their driver to deliver to the address?! They were trying to extort money out of me when I suggested they cancel the order again the chef said he would do it this one time but not again! I've had no favours from being verbally abused to paying for food I offered to have cancelled and then the person receiving the food was forced to leave the house with family inside and collect the leaking food boxes from being placed near bins ! The driver then also got aggressive explaining he had a family to feed and they shouldn't be delivering to the pistol code. Message to restaurant - if someone suggests you cancel the order then cancel as supposed to taking money you do not need and abusing customers. You are providing a service in these challenging circumstances and should not be exploiting people or shouting at them. These people could not get to a supermarket so relied on you for a nice meal which was totally ruined by your attitude and stale food.

The food was authentic and delicious, there are lots of options on the menu which was great, the prices were amazing and very affordable, the waiter was really friendly and attended to our needs, and we didn't have to wait long at all for our...

After the worst excuse for a curry ever opposite at the British Raj (oily non spiced stewed mush - really appalling!) my move to Westbury was tainted again by a disappointing curry in the only other Indian! Nice concept having elegant Indian dining but 3...

After waiting an hour and 45 minutes for a bland curry which delivered no flavour, I was deeply disappointed. Tables before us waited longer and gave up leaving without any food.

I would definitely not recommend even wasting your time with this restaurant we was waiting almost an hour for mains and when they come. Out 2 of the dishes were wrong, when we explained this to the manager he insisted this is what we ordered...

We have been here once and had a takeaway since we moved to the area and have decided that it’s good but not the best in the village. The starters have been okay - tikka trio don’t taste that different to each other. The mains...

Have been coming here since I was a child (I'm now 32) and have NEVER had a bad experience at this resturant. This is the best curry house I've been to and what makes this are the following: Great staff make you feel like family AMAZING flavoursome food Reasonable prices After dinner mints and hot towels Do yourself a favour and have a pint at the pub opposite to really whet your appetite! This will always be THE Indian restaurant to go to in Bristol, let alone the country EDIT: This restaurant has now closed and the Indian Kitchen has taken over.

What a great place food was fantastic staff r amazing made us what ever we wanted recommend to everyone who want first class food they even brought out bowls of ice cream out for us all at no extra cost and even put candle in...

Great, updated brighter fresh decor. Had Masala Lamb Shank which was gorgeous.

I would recommend getting a takeaway as the food is good. But if you are looking for a nice venue to have a 'chat' this isn't it. There are no soft furnishings, i had to talk loudly to the person sat next to me and...

Nice meal and great service. Good prices also.

we cannot remember if or when we have had a curry this GOOD! really really good food. we ordered a take away and were impressed with how quick it took. great job guys!

If you want authentic Indian food to touch your soul eat here. Amazing, personal service and beautifully presented food.

We ate here recently and really enjoyed our meal, so much so that we ordered a take away last week. The Chettinad was excellent and the Kadai was very tasty. The service was fine, although it was very quiet in there so the atmosphere is...

The service was good, at times a little too attentive. The quality of food was good, however the Dhal was spicy, which we had ordered for the kids so that came as a bit of a shock,they did however kindly replace it for a new one but by this time the kids were to tired and had filled up on nann and poppadoms. My main (chicken stuffed with paneer) sounded lovely but for me it was too creamy and lacked flavour. My husbands meal was really good, full of flavour. My main bug bare was that for 2 adults and 2 small kids it cost £100 and it just really was worth that.
