Food and service were faultless. An imaginative menu that I've not encountered before and my chosen dish couldn't have been better. Courteous and friendly staff, in a very relaxing environment. 100% recommended!

We had family visit us, and we fancied a curry, so we decided on here it was our 1st time having a sit-down meal in the restaurant. We have had takeaways from here in the past that have been good and we have retured many times so knew the food would be nice. We all said that the food was great and we all had a fabulous meal. For me, the best curry I have had in a very long time. We will be returning soon yo have another sit down meal.

The starters were very good but the main meals were very bland (Chicken Balti & Chicken Jalfrezi). It was like eating a Indian meal with all the 'magic' taken out.

When we 1st arrived and saw the menu, we were worried they had scaled down and it would not be as good as we remembered. We needn’t have worried. We had poppadoms , then starters - I had lamb chops, beautiful , big and tender. Julie had butter chicken starter- delicious and fresh. Main course - Julie had lamb Karai - beautifully tender again. My chicken naga, did exactly what the menu stated - very hot curry. All the food was hot and fresh, served on superb plates- individually dressed by the kitchen. What a great meal, staff were perfect, even catering for a 15 minute break between courses and the cobra beer was pretty good as well. All in all fantastic

my wife and i took my 89 year old mum for a curry on Saturday . we were first in at around 5.30 . staff were attentive and polite .the staff stayed a safe social distance throughout and there was plenty of hand sanitiser available . we choose 3 different curries for mains and shared 2 starters . think we over ordered with 2 side dishes of rice and one of chips but the waiter made up a takeaway bag of the leftovers for us. overall a safe and pleasant meal with good food .

We visited early on a Thursday evening, where it was initially very quiet. The staff were friendly and attentive, food came out quickly and was very nice, the portions seemed fairly generous compared to other restaurants we’ve been to; I’ve never seen my boyfriend take away a doggy bag before! We both had mixed starters, one meaty and one veggie, both very nice. Followed by paneer tikka massala and lamb saag paneer, again both good. Would happily visit again.

I ordered a paneer madras and was served a chicken madras. On bringing this to the attention of the staff they laughed and informed me that I wouldn’t be charged for it. What should have been an enjoyable meal with friends turned out to be quite a quite an upsetting experience. Having been vegetarian for 26 years I was disappointed that I had just eaten a piece of chicken, and to top things off I had to go hungry whilst I sat and watched my friends finish their meal. Whilst I appreciate that mistakes can happen the customer service and way the whole situation was dealt with by the staff was appalling. I will not return.

Booked a table for a visit 3rd February. 8 friends out for what should have been a fantastic night. Arrived on time to be left out in a freezing cold waiting area. 55 minutes later they took our order still in the cold waiting area. We were finally taken to our table 1 hour from walking in. Starters came straight away, nothing to write home about not much flavour I had lamb Bhaji puri and the bread was really doughy. Mains came and one of our friends had to send hers back as the chicken wasn’t cooked it was raw, which them dampened everyone night. Spent a silly about on drinks due to the fact we waited so long for anything to happen. Definitely won’t be going back.

Came here with a big group, which I know the restaurant is designed to cater for. Despite this, our order was messed up and we had to wait an hour and a half for our very average food. They did give us free naan but this didn't make up for how incredibly rude the staff were. Won't be coming back

We came here as a group of six with a six year old on a Monday. We had a wheelchair with us and staff were quick to help and knew what they were doing . What was also really good is that the children's menu isn't just the normal cop out chicken nuggets/fish fingers they also offered four Indian dishes and they made sure the spice in a starter was the right level for our six year old who loved the food here. The food was delicious and well presented....for me the chef's special menu is always fantastic and a must. The portion sizes are good we always end up with a doggy bag. Service is good and not intrusive. We've never had a bad meal here this is the first time I've reviewed it though

Had a lovely evening here with the family, great food and service. The atmosphere needs work though as it's very brightly lit, feels a little like your gran's front room. I also can't understand why they allow some of their regulars (NOT diners!) to come in and stand around the bar boozing all night, right next to our dining table. Is it a pub or a restaurant?

Went for a Saturday night mealWas very busy but the service was spot on. The food wasn't up to its normal tasty levels however. The lamb in my bhuna was tasteless and the sauce disappointingly bland - I'd asked for it to be made 'hot & spicy'. The pathia my missus had was also disappointing- not hot enough and far too sour. Benefit of the doubt means I will go again (especially given previous good experiences)

We were staying at the campsite just a five minute walk from this restaurant so it called to us. The "siren call" worked and what a delight that was. The menu was extensive offering everything that you expect on an Indian menu plus a number of chef's specials which were varied in content and style. The service was friendly and well paced. The interior was not ultra modern and warm and welcoming. The food was delicious. We eat a lot of Indian food and this ranks among the best we have ever tasted. The wine was what we expected and at a very good price. In fact the whole meal was an excellent price. We will be returning. If we lived in that area we would be there every week without a doubt.

i recently visited this brilliant restaurant for a meal on a sunday night with family for a meal , i decided to have a mixed starter for £3.90 which consisted of chicken tikka , onion bhaji and sheek kebab , which was served quickly and very nice and tasty a great way to start a meal , for my main course i decided to order a chicken samber which again was served quickly very tasty dish cooked very well with great flavours and spices , i can highly recommend this restaurant as a great place to eat for any occasion , also this restaurant is child friendly as we had my 1 year old nephew with us and the staff already put a high chair and made a place for him at the table great food , brilliant value especially the sunday special which i opted for 5 courses for £10.95 great value the normal menu is also very reasonable

Family meal with our one year old. Baby was well catered for. Very good Sunday evening menu deal which was excellent value for money. The Pathia was very nice indeed and a substantial portion. Great service from friendly staff who were only too keen to help. My only gripe would have been the rice on the floor by our table from a previous meal.

Visited on a Sunday night. We had been going to go to a place in Stalybridge but it was closed so on the way home stopped of here.Service was good except for one lad who took our starters away without a word and then dropped cutlery everywhere - I didn't mind that so much but a simple was 'everything ok?' would have been nice.They do a Sunday offer menu which has a good amount of choice and includes poppadum's - starter-main -side and even a coffee or an ice cream for a shade over £10Food was good in the main. I had a chicken chat which was disappointing the chicken wasn't great and it lacked flavour. Sheek kebab was nice. The mrs had a chicken and mushroom dish which didn't look like we expected but tasted nice and I had a passanda that was very good and the lamb was good quality.Rice was OK naan a bit small but tasted good.We paid just under £32 so average price wise - I would go again

We've been eating here for many years, and make a 20 mile round trip to do so. The service is fantastic, and the staff could not be any more attentive. As well as all the regular curries, there is a large selection of specials too. There's something for everyone, and they're always willing to sprinkle on a few extra chillies for those who like an extra kick to their food. We've never had a bad meal, and simply can not recommend it highly enough!

Visited at tea-time on Thursday 13 August, there was six of us and we had pre-booked our table. We were seated in the front lounge initially while we waited for the last two of our party. They do a tea-time special deal Monday to Thursday 5:00 to 7:00 pm which is good value for money, we had all arrived by 6:40 pm and were only offered the a la carte menu, I had to ask for the tea-time menu. I shouldn't have to ask, I felt it was a case of if you're not aware of it they'd not offer it, I docked a mark due to this, if you're offering early diner deals, don't hide them from early diners! Food was plentiful so no complaints from any of us, it wasn't a case of 'Pay Less, Get Less' as is sometimes the case with special deals. Strangely my Madras wasn't as hot and spicy as it usually is, also staff we usually see weren't evident, it could have been their night off, just wondering if there has been some management changes recently. Having said all that we will return, including tip it was £90 for a pint of Cobra each, a dozen poppadoms, two naan, chutney tray, starter, main course with pilau rice, that's £15 a head, great value.

Arrived at around 7pm on a Saturday with a group of 6. We were waiting for someone to arrive so we asked if we could sit in the waiting area / lobby / bar area and we were given drinks straight away. The entrance area where the seating area was located was very nice, great ambience and decor. After our whole party had arrived we were seated - we were swiftly ready to order and our chutney tray / popodoms arrived very quickly and yet were very fresh. A lot of onions / pickle / mint sauce / chutneys, good portions for a table of 6 and nice flavours and fresh.Our mains came shortly after our starters (We were asked if ready to eat mains) and all the curries were served in the hot copper balti dishes. We had ordered - chicken and mixed jalfrezy. 2 chicken tikka masalas, 1 garlic chicken special and 1 chicken tikka balti. Everybody was over the moon with their meals - they said it was very fresh, hot, lovely flavours. Very very impressed. We also ordered some naan bread and paratha and pilau rice which all came with the mains at the same time. We were attended to frequently by the staff members, all of which were very helpful and friendly and attentative. 100% reccomend this place - and when back in the area, will come again, without a doubt!

Our long distance relatives were in town and my nephew loves to go for an Indian meal whilst here, so we decided to book in here on many, many recommendations of how good it is.The place itself is quite big, but a bit packed. There were quite a lot of people there and there was a nice atmosphere. The menu was varied and included some very interesting sounding dishes. The staff were (in my experience) typical Indian restaurant quality; Warm, smiling, friendly, willing to do everything they could to keep you happy.We ordered our food and had to wait quite a while. I've noticed this in the larger establishments, where every dish is cooked to order it can take a long time for food to arrive. When it arrived it looked glorious, the Pilau rice was colourful, the dishes were full of meat and vegetables and looked very appetising.But I was to be left very, very disappointed. I'm not into the stupidly hot curries, I prefer something a bit more flavoursome and I've found some places who can do a Dopiaza or a Rogan Josh that are simply exquisite. But here, nothing of the sort. My Dopiaza tasted purely of onions. I know it's an onion based dish, but I'd expect to have some sort of spice in there to liven it up and I've been to places that really make it shine, but this was a bitter disappointment. It was the same with all the other dishes ordered. In fact, one of the orders was for my young Great Nephew, who isn't a lover of spicy food. The kitchen messed up the order and forgot to make his dish with fewer spices, but even he commented on how unspicy it all was. Or maybe the kitchen just made all the dishes without spices.The prices are on a par with other places I've been to and the staff were very good, as expected. But the food, although looking good, needs to be more flavoursome. It was very disappointing and I'd hope they will rectify this as soon as possible. I'm giving the Lal Quilla 3 blobs, but I was seriously considering only two, it's that close a call.In the meantime, I'm going to keep slogging over to Dukinfield to the Curry Cottage.

Yet another great meal. The staff a very friendly and go out of their way to look after you. The food is always good and the updated menu has some great new dishes. Went for a biriani this time - which I wouldn't normally choose as I like quite spicy curries. The sauce they made for me was fantastic. Much more spicy than normal and with great flavours. I would highly recommend this restaurant and, if you're not sure if you will like the dish, just to adapt it to your particular taste. They really do work hard to make sure you enjoy your food.

I visited here with my hubby and a small group of friends. We had booked a table and were actually very late. We had rang ahead and this wasn't a problem at all. Upon our arrival we received a warm welcome and were shown to our table and menus were brought and drinks sorted out.The food was fabulous and there was a very good choice. My curry had a large chilli on top and I love chillis so I ate this no problem. It was a hot one. My friend got the same too and his was very hot as well. Our other friend asked if they could bring some of those chillis out so that he could try them and the waiter brought a plate out with quite a few on. We all ate some more and had a bit of a chilli challenge going. All good fun. The waiter was happy to take our photos too and we all had a really good evening with great food.I will definitely visit here again. I don't normally eat out at Indian Restaurants and just order takeaways but I think that will have to change.

We decided to give Lal Quila a try, based solely on its Trip Advisor rating, and we were not disappointed. We went in a group of 19 to celebrate my wife's birthday. First thing we noticed was that we were allowed to order from the main menu, and not be tied to a paltry 'party menu' with no choice, like we have had before at other restaurants. Considering the numbers involved I thought the service was really good, and we were not kept waiting hours for food. Another plus point was that they were willing to do separate orders/bills for the mix of couples and families which saved hours of trying to work out who owed what when the bill arrived. The price of most main meals is probably only £1-50 more than you would pay for a takeaway, and my garlic chicken starter followed by Lamb Bhuna only came to around £10. Will definitely be going more often, as they have a Monday to Thursday early bird offer from 5pm to 7pm which is even better value.

Probably around my fourth visit to this restaurant and food was excellent as always. We ordered meat samosas, onion bhajis, garlic chilli chicken and lamb tikka madras. Everything was excellent, including the madras which a lot of curry houses seem to struggle with. Highly recommended!

Been going here since they opened some 3 or 4 times a year. Never been let down and they really do remember you. Not expensive and a good range of slightly different dishes. Well recommended.

first experience of lal quila and collect a take out. The currys we ordered were delicious ( chicken tikka jalfrezi, lamb rogan josh & saag aloo). all of which are supposed to be spicy dishes but many places are mediocre and feeble. not at lal quilla, fragrant spices and fresh slices of chillis. would recommend and will be returning for more.

Absolute fantastic 3-course meal with drinks and a great price. Service was brilliant - if anything overly attentive. Not a criticism though. A really good meal with no complaints.

Yet again another great meal and drinks at Lal Quilla. Thanks Naz, Sadiq and all the friendly staff for the relaxed atmosphere we always walk into. Also had a great Christmas Day curry and turkey take-out. Will see you all soon.

We done an early bird with family. Quiet to begin with but gradually filled up as the evening progressed.Good menu choice, attentive staff and service. Food was well presented, and good quality. Prices were very reasonable.If there is any criticism then I will say lacked a bit of atmosphere, that may be due to us being there before it got busy. Would definitely use again.

We had been recommended Lal Quilla by friends and so visited one evening this week. Overall we found the food to be very average - poorer than we expected. The restaurant itself is quite dated and the music is terrible - Michael Jackson - beat it! I have nothing against Michael Jackson but not when I am eating a curry in a restaurant! On a positive note the staff were very friendly

Had another great meal this weekend at Lal Quilla, Service is second to none with just the right balance of attention and and time and space to enjoy the meal.Food is an absolute joy here. If you've reached the big 5.0., like what I 'ave, you might enjoy the Sarga (not quite SAGA) chicken or lamb starter. Be prepared for a good green chilli hit though.For mains I can recommend the Kabuli, lots of chick peas, and the chicken Chilli shashlick stir fry. Probably got the tittle wrong but ask for it like that and they'll know what you mean, it's very popular.

I have visited too many times to count now and each time the food and service have been excellent. The staff will do everything they can to make your experience a positive one and they will be happy to make you something even if not on the menu (if possible)I have been with friends and also with my young daughter who loves the korma!

If carlsberg made curry houses this would be the one they made. The food , staff and surroundings are brilliant. Excellent value for money and food to die for!

Since my last review of Lal Quilla we have visited 3 times. At each visit the food has been consistently good, the staff very friendly. There is always a buzz about the place. You never feel rushed to eat your meal even though the service is very efficient. The courses are always freshly made to your desire. If you haven't tried the Lal Quilla you are missing a treat?

This Indian restaurant has been established for over 10 years . I have eaten here many times with family and friends . Always great service and food. Wish I could visit more often .Bollywood nights are great fun . If you are in the Mossley, Ashton under Lyne area and fancy an excellent curry , don't hesitate , go to Lal Quilla .

I am disgusted by this whole order, we ordered all sauce and salad except from one separate, the sauce was drenched all over the food, the sauce was that hot was inedible, my father had to take all chicken off and wipe it down with paper towels, but still covered in sauce, had to be thrown away, me and my mum shared one, it had 4 pieces of chicken Tikka on it, which was already cut up from proberly two pieces of chicken Tikka. The salad and sauce was also drenched on it. The food was thrown away. All the food was cold. The only edible thing was the popadoms. My brother onion barje was sloppy and cold. I paid extra for sauce and salads separate for the above reason. The salad was just lettuce in a plastic bag. No cucumber, tomato, onion or coleslaw which you would expect from a salad. I ordered a additional one for the next night for myself again had to be thrown. I tried to take the lettuce and sauce of it but could not. The nann bread was already mushy. I paid extra for the salad and sauce separate. I rang shah of Denton and I wasnt very attentive. I am disgraced and very upset. £40 wasted. Do not eat from here!

Conceited arrogance. Simply they sent us the wrong order, it was way too hot and went in the bin. Phones them up 3 time and left messages, no reply. When we got through they asked why did it take so long to complain, seriously! Took no responsibility, said they never get things wrong, blamed Uber Eats, who is the supplier here? Reason I never went back to their over rated restaurant was because I had a huge, dead, bluebottle in my chutney one time. No apologies then either.

When we arrived it was busy and they managed to fit us in. So book. Even though it was busy the service was excellent. No long waits between courses. I love curries. I have had good and bad. This was excellent. I am always honest about what I write. They are rich and flavoursome. The Naan was to die for. Soft fluffy and quite large. And importantly tasty. If you fancy a takeaway then you get 20% off the menu prices. Make sure you book.

I visited their sweet shop which is adjacent to restaurant. Sweets and snacks taste good. Service is pretty fast, neat and clean place. Tried their restaurant as well. Good food with great taste. Loved it.
