Latif Indian Restaurant in Newcastle upon Tyne

This was our third visit to the restaurant. We were really happy the first two times but this visit was even better than previous ones. We were celebrating our son‘s birthday with his partner and all four of us ordered different things and tried each other’s dishes. We loved the sev puri chat pre-starters and then shared 4 starters. All were great but the paneer garlic chilli pepper and gunpowder prawns were particularly good. For mains we had grilled Marsala fish (sea bass), chingri malai prawn curry, Malabar coastal chicken curry and the chef made a chicken tikka pathia for us despite it not being on the menu. The chef varied the degree of spicing on a couple of the dishes as requested. We also had rice, bread and mixed tarka dal. We enjoyed everything. The dal was particularly good. We had a really lovely evening and would 100% recommend, just wish we didn’t live over 300 miles away but we’ll definitely be back on our next visit to Newcastle.

Quality. Really good value, authentic curries. The chai is ace too

BEST TAKEAWAY IN NEWCASTLE!! Have ordered from here many times now and it's been great every time. I've also ordered with friends/family who have all loved it too, vegans and non-vegans alike. As a vegan, there is nothing quite like a fully plant based menu and the peace of mind that brings when ordering, and I'm not aware of anywhere else with so many options. I would highly recommend the onion bhajis, garlic or peshwari naan, and the spinach paratha. There are so many curries to choose from, but some of my favourites include the seitan madras, jalfrezi, chana masala and aloo gobi. They also sell vegan pizzas and chips etc, so there's little reason to order from anywhere else - always better to support an independent family-run business. Very good value for money also. The staff are lovely and easy to get in contact with (via text etc) when needed. I would say delivery takes an hour on average - a perfectly reasonable amount of time, especially considering I'm a bit further out (North Kenton), and I think the owner delivers herself. So as long as you order with 1-2h in mind, you can't be disappointed! 🙂 I would love to come in-person if they re-open the restaurant one day.

Lovely atmosphere first class service and the food was divine and very reasonably priced our server Eliana was very attentive and super friendly 😀

Happened upon this gorgeous restaurant by accident when a the cafe we wanted to visit was closed...and the food is the best I've had in years. Ate myself silly and would absolutely come back again if I lived any closer! Excellent for gluten free and some of the best choice I've had in a long time. I had the Dhansak and couldn't help but get a side of fish fritters. Even the poppadoms were gluten free!
