Absolutely fantastic!! The food is amazing, full of flavour and good size portions. As with everything price is so important and value for money is 10/10. We sat in to eat although you can tell they do very well with takeaway orders. Atmosphere, as you would expect on a Late October Tuesday night however the staff, Nick and Ravi made this a truly fantastic experience. Ravi was on hand for everything we needed, polite and respectful but also very open to questions, complimented by Nick who was very knowledgeable about the best alcohol drinks and how to have them. Both a huge asset to the Jaipur Spice team. Massive thank you for a great evening.

Visited for the first time last night, and hands down was blown away by the food, it was absolutely incredible. By far the best Indian in the area! 100% worth the wait!!

No draft beer just bottled food was ok service was great very polite young lady serving us. Reasonable price atmosphere wise whilst I appreciate they offer takeaway they were taking orders front of house the extremely loud phone rang non stop and was really annoying

Having read recent reviews we were quite concerned how our evening would go. However, we had a great meal. The lead waiter is a bit brusque until you chat to him, and the younger staff are brilliantly friendly. The meal itself was really tasty. I had vegetable dopiaza as usual and would say it's the hottest version I've ever tried. That didn't stop me eating it all! We didn't have starters, but he warned the onion bhajis are absolutely massive! Atmosphere was great, lots of chatter with some really good background music. The only downside was the coke was pretty flat. Oh, and prices were fab! In all we spent less than 20 quid each and were stuffed. Overall we would definitely return next time we visit the area.

Ordered standard pickle tray, was very tasty with the poppadoms to start. Vegetable rogan josh with mushroom rice to follow, 10/10. Tasted exceptionally good. For drinks we had Kingfisher beer, nothing available on draught, and choice of Cobra /Kingfisher in bottles. When I asked waiter what sort of beer Kingfisher was, he replied it's a beer! That was the only fault I could find with our Busby Stoop experience, a bit more staff training on all aspects of the drink and food menu would marginally improve a great dining experience. Staff courteous, well turned out and professional,reasonably priced high quality food, in clean surroundings. We'll be back, thanks Jaipur Spice.

Downgrade from 5 stars to 1 Stomach cramps and other problems from 4am this morning after a chicken tikka masala. Gas, burping and the rest. Service was atrocious, the older chap on the counter, owner, was unprofessional, not welcoming and certainly no service with a smile. I supported this restaurant through lockdown, but won't be supporting them anymore. Their preference/insistence for cash is dodgy and it looks like they don't want to pay tax like the rest of us.

Staff very rude on the telephone. When I go to the restaurant I'm ignored while the staff speak on the phone, when I call I'm ignored while the staff have a conversation. Called straight back and was put on hold while the staff member answered the second line!! Rude and ignorant

I have had many a curry in my time, but without exception, this is the best that I have ever tasted. On top of this, we were given a tray of pickles and poppadoms free of charge, although we were going to buy them. The cost for six, including drinks, was £81.30. Brilliant value. If you are in the area or staying at Woodland Lakes, make sure you visit here.

The worst Indian food we have ever had and the most expensive. The chicken was tough, the lamb was that tough you couldn't get your knife through it and the prawns had quite clearly been frozen as it was like chewing rubber. A couple of meals were so tasteless we just couldn't eat them. Missing side dishes and all food was cold. I don't know if this is a one off but we are not willing to give it another chance at those prices.

We stopped off on the way back from Scarbrough and could see that the restaurant was busy, The manager assured us that he would get us a table. After 45 minutes we were directed to a table and a young lady asked if we would like popadoms before ordering! We said yes and the popadoms arrived quickly. They avoided taking our order for quite some time, eventually we placed our order and waited quite some time for the starters to arrive, once finished we waited another 30 minutes for the mains. We had to ask for food to be returned because we did not order it and we were informed that it was a mistake and was for another table. In this time we watched entire families arrive and be seated ( they may have booked ) enjoy their meal and leave. The food is not special But is ok, this is a family restaurant with children and young babies seated at the tables, this was nice to see and makes a change. However we were the victims of a well-oiled operation to trap us into the restaurant, If the restaurant manager had been honest with us instead of being greedy he Could have informed us that it would be a very long wait for the food! 3 hours is not acceptable , being charged for the so-called mistaken food was an obvious scam to up the bill, if it had been genuinely intended for another table then how did it appear on our bill? The popadoms that were served very quickly appeared on the bill but were promoted to us as a courtesy side before ordering. They turned out to be the most expensive popadoms we have ever had, only three popadoms at £8.50!!!!! If you are a local this place is popular if you are passing it on the A170 coming or going to Thirsk, Pickering, Hemsley ,Scarbrough etc then keep driving would be my advise. They have no scruples with regard to passing trade and will mislead you pull every restaurant trick they can.

Came in and sat down at 7:27. We got asked if we wanted poppadoms but when they came out the pickle tray was dirty and had 2 hairs in. Then we waited 35 minuets for one starter and a following 30-40 mins for the main course. I complained to the staff about the wait time. And when the food came out the waiter said are you happy and never apologised for the wait time. The bill came and it was £50 very expensive for the lack of service.

Perhaps a change of ownership but things have certainly gone downhill. Food was nice but we had to ask for cutlery. Staff were rude and we were talked at rather than asked. We felt quite rushed to finish our meal as our starter and main course was brought out before we had finished the previous course and with plates still on the table. And please use a clean cloth to wipe down the tables...it's not rocket science to get the basics right

The food was unbelievably bland. Four of us ordered completely different curries and three of them were almost identical with all four being nothing like the menu said. I ordered a speciality dish which might as well come out of a jar from Morrisons. I also feel we were overcharged as the receipt was handwritten and we couldn’t understand anything. It was very expensive. The final insult was the card machine was conveniently not working…I’m guessing the taxman won’t be seeing any of our cash.

On arrival given filthy menus with curry splattered on. When given glasses for drinks had to ask for clean glasses. Ordered poppadoms to start, after 35 minutes asked waiter to take main course, couple who'd just arrived had their order taken before ours. Had to re ask for drinks as they'd been forgotten. Plates chipped and cold, asked for fresh plates and cutlery. Food arrived without cutlery and a missing dish, asked for missing dish and told it hadn't been ordered! Rushed out missing main course and the chapati was uncooked and doughy. Poor service. Poor quality ingredients. New plates, cutlery and dishwasher needed! Do not recommend to eat here, buy yourself an indian ready meal instead and save yourself the disappointment. Attended restaurant as staying in woodland lake lodges nearby. Visited on the 10th April 2024.

We arrived on a very busy evening with only the manager and 2 waiters serving. We were excited to introduce our friends to our favourite restaurant. Oh dear ! We received a friendly greeting on arrival and ordered drinks. 3 arrived quickly but one was quite forgotten and was requested 3 times! The poppadoms arrived quickly but again 3 main courses came quickly and the fourth one had to be reminded!’ drinks ordered and 20 minutes later we went to the bar and asked where they were. I know they were busy but it was quite like a pantomime and an embarrassment to us but fortunately our friends were sympathetic

On arrival the waiters did not have the booking in the diary and were quite rude about the issue. The service from 2 out of the 3 members of staff we had interactions with was poor bordering on being rude & unprofessional. The food was lovely but the portion sizes were small due to it being the promotional banquet night. This restaurant is a “cash only” place which I believe is unacceptable to expect people to carry cash when card payment is accepted at 99.5% of all businesses in the UK. Ever wondered why?

Thought we had found a decent curry in the area and have been here several times to eat in and take aways over the last 18 months. Ordered a take away last night (21.10.23) and they said card machine not working so we had to get cash which was a pain. The ordered two curries a Parthia and a Tikka Masala. Both were very disappointing- the Pathia was not at all spiced and hot and was very bland with no kick and the chicken was over cooked and grisly in places. The Tikka was weak and watery with no real flavour. Don’t know if they have changed cooks or what but would not go again I’m afraid so back to looking around again in Thirsk area as ones in town also poor.

We've talked about visiting for sometime but won't be coming back. Dreadful service, very poorly coordinated. Didn't get a drinks order right yet. Very squashed in, just too close together. Food was very disappointing. They seem to have mistaken the word mild for bland. My mushroom rice was good but I've had better microwave korma. Those who ordered hotter curries were equally unimpressed. To add insult to injury, we could only pay by cash or bank transfer. Given the poor Internet signal, this was really difficult. So wanted this to be an enjoyable evening for our grandson's birthday but it simply wasn't.

We visited at the weekend and were very disappointed with the food which came as a shock as we've previously had great food from here. The starters were very over cooked and struggled to even cut an onion bajji in half! I ordered a mixed tandoori masala for mains which came with 3 small hard pieces of meat and 1 tiny prawn. The shell had been left in which I bit into! The onions in my partners balti were barely cooked. Overall very disappointing. Hope they get things sorted as it used to be a lovely place to go.

The food here is delicious. The menu is enormous which made it hard to choose but we went with the signature dishes and weren't disappointed. Poppadums are enormous and crispy fresh. Service was excellent. I wanted a glass of white but loathe sav blanc which was the only option so they said I could have a chardonnay or a pino grigio by the glass instead. Perfect! Young man who served us was efficient and great with the banter. If we lived around here (we are visiting from overseas) this would be our local.

Sorry to say the reviews given about the poor service are right. Our pappadoms were forgotten, our mains were flung down on the table, it was a case of sit, eat and leave.

Food I can't fault, was delicious. Service was some of the poorest attitude I've experienced in some time. Plates, Starters, poppadoms, main meal and drinks were just plonked down in front of you. No interaction from staff, no asking how the meal was or if we wanted any more drinks. Cutlery was handed to us rather than placed on the table. Upon leaving, nobody even gave us a second glance or asked us how it was, or thanks for coming. Even though the food was served fast, it felt like a cattle market, in, sit down, eat, pay, get out as we need the table. Would never return.

Banquet night, easy to know what food you ordered as it’s standard courses but. Be very aware to check your bill. Drinks are added to the food bill which you can not understand, ask for a break down of drinks.We got charged for 9 pints of lager and we only had 4.

Booked for Friday night at 6.30pm for a table of 5 we arrived around 6.15 . No tables ready was just taken to a corner and sat a table which seats four . Was told to just pull up a chair and one will have to sit on the end . No cutlery on the table , a young server just dumped it all in the table so we had to set the table out ourselves . Was 20 mins before we were offered any drinks . Can I also add we were sat in front of the toilets so every time someone went my wife was knocked ( not great ) . Forty minutes before we had the food order taken ( at the time only 4 other couples in so not busy ) . Food was amazing as normal but service was absolutely terrible rude staff with bad manners . On payment my wife noticed they had tried to charge us for 2 rounds of drinks! When we only had 1 . Overall not a great dining experience but sadly was enough to put us off ever going back and warning others of the terrible service

We have used this restaurant a lot over the years. Generally the food is good and the banquet night is particularly great value. However, the issue we have had is over take-aways. No matter how often I reiterate the order over the telephone and repeat it several times there has been, on quite a few occasions, missing items from the order. It is so frustrating! Mainly because it spoils your enjoyment of the meal. The restaurant does not offer a delivery service so to go back to correct the order is, for us, a further round trip of ten miles. Last night the order was short of the salad for the onion bhajis even though I said does it come with salad. I knew that the onion bhajis come with salad, but I mentioned it anyway in case it got forgotten, which it did. It is such a shame because the food is good and the staff are very friendly. However, there seems to be a breakdown in communication somewhere between the ordering on the telephone and the order being relayed to the kitchen!

Over the years we have had delicious meals as takeaways and in the restaurant. We have recommended friends go and we have taken family and friends to eat in. But today went horribly wrong! On our way back from the Dales we checked online for the opening time which said 5pm, we decided to wait an hour locally (sitting in a lay-by) because it would be worth the wait. We live over thirty miles away so it would be silly to go home and come back. At 5pm we phoned and gave our order, we were told the restaurant would open at 5.30pm on Tuesdays not 5pm but to go in and have a complementary drink whilst we waited. Other customers were waiting and had done the same as us and checked on line for the opening time but decided to give up. Eventually at 5.45pm the doors opened and we were asked to take a seat and offered drinks. (Half a beer and a tonic water). The restaurant got busy quickly with takeaway orders and people eating in. Our takeaway ordered at 5pm was eventually ready at 6.45pm. Telephone and text communication between ourselves and the restaurant were sincere and the restauranteur and other staff were extremely apologetic. We were offered 10% discount off the order. We got on our way, hungry and ready to enjoy our curries. Unfortunately when we unpacked it our prawn puri was missing but the bag of salad was in the bag. Our lamb achari was missing and our lamb balti was missing. We had a duplicate lamb bhuna and a lamb saag instead. When we phoned we were made out to be liars. If our order had been correct we would not have needed to phone we would have been eating our food! Eventually we were told to bring it back and have our order cooked again. This would have been a round trip of an hour and a half making it a four hour wait from placing the order to eating the takeaway! Disappointed and very unhappy!

We enjoyed the most amazing food last night on a very busy evening. staff all worked incredibly hard and my only criticism is we were rushed at the end of our meal, in and out in just over an hour due to a building up...

Supposed to open 5pm . We waited 45 minutes before someone came to open. We know often late but usually someone there to open up. The disappointing thing was no apology, nothing. Food was good as always and service quick eventually. I’m polite and expect...

We visited as a group of 5! The food was okay wasn’t blown away by the taste or quality of it which wasn’t what I expected since the manager said they was the best Indian in Yorkshire whilst asking us to wait for our table...

Again an excellent takeaway,the only negative point was the Aloo Gobi.£3.50 for 2 little pieces of cauliflower and 1 piece of potato which is the cheapest dish to prepare was very poor. The overall experience was good just a shame about the side dish!!!

I note the manager's response to any criticism is to make the outlandish claim to be running the best Indian restaurant in the region. Rather than burying his head in the sand he should visit literally anywhere else and would realise he should not be...

Hadn't booked and just turned up. The staff were great, friendly and attentive. The food was superb and staff were really switched on. Really good and would recommend it as the best in the area.

Along with friends who live locally we visited this establishment for the second time last weekend. Our visit confirmed for us that lunch at the George is a real treat. The food is first class as was the service. Set in the middle of Easingwold, a lovely little town, this hotel is an example of how a restaurant should be run. Despite visiting on a busy Saturday lunchtime we felt that we were made very welcome and given ample time and attention. The restaurant area is well presented, relaxed and comfortable. The lunchtime menu suited our party, offering a good choice for us all. Perhaps most importantly the food was first class. Based on our experience I would be happy to recommend the George to anyone.
