Lina Tandoori in West Berkshire

Absolutely delicious food, and ever so fresh tasting. Great service as well 😊 chicken Dhansak was one of the best we’ve ever tasted, and the Tandoori King prawns were fabulous.

On a quiet Monday night, we were made very welcome by Ali and his wife. The food was all excellent, as was the service. Ali insisted on showing us the kitchen, and also a book of his awards and lifetime achievements, of which he was justifiably proud. All in all a great experience. I will return.

Lovely meal, enjoyed very much. Many thanks.

Deliciously takeaway & friendly and helpful service. Highly recommended.

Wonderful place with a cozy atmosphere - family run - great food - mainstay for 28 years of Pangborne village. Easy to see this place open for another 28 years! Well recommended

Very friendly and welcoming family run restaurant, delicious food service is great. :)

Came here as I was staying at the George Hotel across the road. Ali who greeted me was a very nice guy. The food came out very quick and the portions were more than enough. Would definitely return if I stay in Pangbourne again.

Absolutely incredible Indian cuisine. We loved eating here! The family that runs the location is very nice and helped some members of our family who had never eaten Indian find something they were very happy with. Highly recommend if you are in Pangbourne.

Amazing curry and great service. Always a favourite been coming here for nearly 20 years. Three generations of curry lovers originated here!

I had a fantastic meal here. The homemade samosa was delicious and the Chicken Rogan was flavoursome. Arif, Tanya and Dadu were friendly and extremely welcoming. What a gem!

A high quality Indian restaurant owned by a friendly family. The food was fresh (especially the garlic naan) and full of flavour. Would definitely recommend trying it out, there's a very extensive menu to cater for everyone!

Excellent fresh food with a broad menu and first class professional and warm service. A family business which is clearly highly regarded with a full lovely restaurant. We were visiting from out of town and stumbled across the restaurant but we were delighted!

Excellent. Absolutely excellent. Visited on Tuesday 17th September. No customers will ever go home disappointed here. Proper proper curry, a wide variety of choices on the menu (I opted for the chicken kerrala - award winning). Staff Uber polite, lovely ambiance, there are no other words for me to say. Highly recommend.

amazing restaurant run by the most amazing family! cannot recommend enough

Amazing food and service, run by the most friendly and loving family. You must eat here

Lovely owners and fast reliable service, Family has been eating here for multiple decades and never a disappointment!

Food, people and service - everything was amazing. We had Lamb Rezalla & Murgh Masala (king prawn). Both were fantastic.

We stopped by Lina Tandoori on our way back from a day out walking the Thames Path. The food was excellent, despite the accommodations made for the local area: paneer replaced by melted cheese, spice fire level a notch below typical. But the flavours were excellent and the ingredients were fresh. We had the chicken tandoori, which arrived sizzling, chickens korma and masala, bhindi/okra, mushrooms, peas (with aforementioned cheese rather than paneer), aloo gobi/cauliflower. Service fantastic.

Lovely restaurant run by just one family, the chef has been cooking for over 40 years and came out to chat to us and was really friendly. The food was absolutely amazing.

A very wonderful family run restaurant. The food was amazing and they catered to everyone’s needs. I recommend this place to everyone.

This restaurant was great! We were visiting from out of town and stopped in for an early dinner. We got the chicken tikka masala and Lucknow chicken, as well as some poppadoms and the meat Samosas. The owner is incredibly personal and clearly passionate about what he does, which is definitely reflected in the amazing quality and taste of the food. This is some of the best Indian food I’ve ever had! I will be eating here again when I’m able to come back.

The food was amazing! And so was the service, best curry I’ve had, you can tell the staff really care for their customers and put care in to their food. A brilliant way to celebrate our sons A level results.

Our 1st visit to Lina Tandoori. Wow Ala and Arif have a great restaurant and are very attentive to deliver quality food to our requested needs. We had king prawn dansak, lamb dansak, sag and onion bhajis lemon and mushroom rices etc. The spicing and quality of ingredients was exceptional we have eaten Indian cuisine around the world and this was such a wonderful find….. Cannot wait to return!

Delicious, authentic food cooked by people who really know what they are doing. The service is delightfully attentive and the atmosphere homely and intimate. My family and friends are regular and happy customers and we travel some distance to eat here.

Authentic Flavors and Warm Hospitality I recently dined at Lina Tandoori and was thoroughly impressed by the experience. The ambiance was cozy, with traditional decor that added to the authentic feel of the place. The highlight, of course, was the food. The Tandoori dishes were exceptional, bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. The Tandoori chicken was tender and juicy, with just the right amount of smokiness. I also loved the naan, which was soft, fluffy, and complemented the curries perfectly. The service was another strong point. The staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations. Overall Lina Tandoori is a fantastic place for anyone looking to enjoy authentic Indian Tandoori cuisine. Whether you’re a fan of Indian food or trying it for the first time, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit.

Recently dined at Lina Tandoori for the first time - a very pleasant experience! I had booked a table in advance, which was ready for us on arrival. We were attended to quickly, and ordered our drinks and some poppodoms. These were super fresh when they came out, still warm, and we all loved the dips/chutneys! Our main dishes/sides were all piping hot when they came out. I had the Aloo Gobi, which was perfect for me - nicely spiced but not spicy! The garlic naan was also very flavourful. Everybody enjoyed their meals. The only small problem we had was the sun coming in through the window at the front of the restaurant, blinding a couple of us at times while sat at our table! The staff were all warm and friendly. The atmosphere was very personal, with the restaurant only having a handful of tables. Despite this, a nice atmosphere was still cultivated, which the Indian music complimented. A lovely touch was a couple of visits from the chef himself, shortly after arrival and to check all our food was okay. Its so nice to see a chef take real pride in the food and service they provide! This made the experience all the better, making it feel even more personal. We all agreed we would come back to Lina Tandoori, and will recommend it to others 🙂

Best Indian restaurant for MILES. Always fabulous food and amazing service.

Me and my friend came in for a takeaway the service was absolutely amazing, very friendly. Food was 10/10 we had a prawn biriyani and butter chicken and both dishes were packed with flavour. Definitely recommend!!

Great atmosphere,great food,good prices Chef Ali and family always welcoming if your eating in or takeaway. Always happy to help, Will always listen to customers feedback and adjust were needed

We booked a table very late one Friday evening as we were travelling from home to London. There was no problem at all with booking this later. It is a small family run restaurant and we met the owner and his two children who were working there. Food is really delicious - a lot of options to choose from. If we were passing through again, we would definitely revisit. Highly recommend!

I had dinner in here last night with my father, Stephen. The food was absolutely delicious, the price was very good and the restaurant was extremely well run. I would highly recommend Lina Tandoori

Amazing food and great services. Really enjoyed my time here and the people are lovely. I had the chicken dupiaza and highly recommend

Amazing food, lovely atmosphere. The lamb rogan and sag aloo was beautiful and would definitely recommend this place!!

Amazingly friendly servers and chefs, brilliant food (especially the tandoori which came out like a show on a fancy plate actually sizzling). Just an amazing family owned restaurant!

Great food and very welcoming staff

A lovely and friendly little Indian place in Pangbourne. The food not only was delicious, but it was also abundant. The chef came to greet us in person which is something you’d only get in a Michelin star place right??? I highly recommend!!!

Came here for dinner with a friend. Service was great, really friendly and efficient. The food was lovely, good portions, freshly cooked. Highly recommended, would eat here again.

Lina Tandoori is amazing. Amazing choice of dishes with lots of variety for different tastes and levels of spice. The food is delicious, I thoroughly enjoyed my meal, and it’s run by lovely people. I recommend eating here and will be visiting again!

Working from Bristol we decided to try find an Indian! I’ve got to say we’ve hit the jackpot this Indian is better than any I’ve tasty before! Ali and his family are the most welcoming people it’s clean fast services and the foot is out of this world!! Well done Ali & family

Easily the best Curry in the area. Ali is a fantastic chef and a lovely man. Thoroughly enjoyed the king prawn puree starter, garlic chilli chicken, mushroom pilau and keema Nan I ordered washed down with a glass or two of Cobra. Fully recommended.

Great family run business- good wholesome food . Recommend

We had a lovely meal for my birthday, the naan bread was the best I’ve ever had!! The staff were very friendly and the owner sat with us for a lovely chat.

Really good service and friendly owner, Ali who provided great quality takeaway for 5 of us. Very enjoyable

We would have loved to have tried the food, but you had given our table away to someone else. Which is a bit rubbish seeing that we were on time and you had our phone number. Your offer of drinks and a 40min wait in the takeaway line wasn't that appealing so we left.

Lovely food. Nice friendly people.

Fantastic food, expertly cooked. We were made to feel really welcome and had a great chat with the chef and owner, Ali. It was a lovely experience and we will definitely be back.

Was a lovely, meal with excellent service and a buzzing atmosphere.

Have been eating food from here my whole life and it is delicious every time

First time trying for years, the currys were fantastic very good flavour and good size pieces of quality meat etc, the pilau rice had good flavour but was slightly over cooked, the onion Bhajis had fantastic flavour but deffo needed to be crispier! Will deffo be trying again

2nd time in 2 weeks we’ve eaten here. The owner and family are great hosts, the food is absolutely faultless. Great flavour. I will be going back without doubt.

Fabulous Dahl and Great Service! My partner and I came for dinner on Friday and had a lovely meal, topped off by such friendly service. It’s a family run restaurant with excellent food, I’d highly recommend to anyone who wants a nice relaxed meal out.

Lovely food ! A big table of us and service was amazing! Also a very good take away

Great service - very friendly and quick. Delicious food, very reasonable too.

I'm punjabi and that food was like I'm walking into my mums kitchen . The food was a 10 out of 10 ! I can't believe ti's restaurant was around the corner from me and didn't know !!

We discovered this amazing Indian Restaurant recently, and regret not finding it earlier.. the food is exceptional as are the family that run it... highly recommend we will definitely continue to be regular customers.. thank you for another great meal tonight.. Karen and Micky B x x Checkendon x x

Great staff really friendly .Family run. Great food you get a lot if it. Some different dishes on the menu. Great second visit awsome food!!

Really good! The staff seemed genuinely friendly, the food was excellent and the place had a really nice atmosphere. I've had takeaway from them in the past which was also excellent but this was my first time eating in and I'll definitely be going back.

Delicious and authentic Indian food! You can tell so much thought and care goes into the making of the food and the atmosphere is very homely. Thank you!

Highly recommended - great food, clearly prepared with great care and attention. Good atmosphere, busy takeaway service is always a good sign. friendly family owners, I was touched that Ala remembered my parents whose last visit must have been 15 years ago or more!

The reviews are right, a lovely meal with great service. You can tell the dishes are lovingly prepared. We have already booked our return visit.

My family have been getting take aways from here for 20 years. It has always been great food and great service!

A fantastic family run Indian restaurant, they were all very friendly and the food was delicious. Will definitely come again!

I highly recommend this wonderful gem of a restaurant! The dishes were all fantastic and the chef came out to discuss the menu. We were all deeply impressed. Our baby and dog were warmly welcomed too, a wonderful place!

Authentic Indian food, totally delicious and full of flavour. Would highly recommend to anyone to visit or order a takeaway, hidden gem in Pangbourne.

We have been looking for a good Indian restaurant for a long time. This family owned restaurant certainly did not disappoint. Outstanding authentic Indian food. We had the Dansank with king prawns, chicken shaslick, okra, peshwari naan and mushroom rice. You won’t be disappointed and we would highly recommend

Lovely to have such fresh food served, enjoyed by all the family. Great service, very friendly and welcoming. Can’t wait for the next visit 👍🏼

Had my first meal here on Friday 22nd March with a friend of mine. Fantastic cosy restaurant, family owned. The food was delicious, service amazing and family were like visiting your own family for a meal. Bonus having my favourite drink of chai at the end of the meal. Highly recommend and will be visiting again soon.j

Great authentic food, owner was fantastic recommending food. Would recommend.

Great food, friendly owner. And cheap prices for the amount of food.

Very nice Bangladeshi/Indian food, very tasty and excellent service. Would definitely recommend! Halal as well.

The second time we have visited. The food is excellent and at a good price with plenty of choice. It is family owned and its the family who serve you and cook the food. Whenever we are in Pangbourne this will always be the tandoori we visit.

A random choice as we were visiting the area. Very pleased with our choice, the staff were very friendly and couldn’t do enough. The food was delicious. Would definitely visit again.

Excellent food and service, 5 colleagues from work attended, easily the best curry I’ve had in a long time if not ever, no exaggeration.

Lovely food great service and friendly staff

We had a take out for 6 for a family celebration we all have different dishes and all were very good. Really friendly family run business. This is our new go to for Indian food. Note it is cash only but there is an ATM at the nearby Coop

We arrived here and was greeted with a huge smile and welcome from just there to the end, service was 1st class and the food was out of this world, we’ve been to many Indian Restaurants but this one is definitely the best for service and food, I would recommend this place to anyone, even the head chef/owner came out and asked how our food was, we couldn’t praise him enough.

We stumbled across this gem passing through town, and it is an absolute find. Fragrant curries and delicious pilau rice, we had the jalfrezi, sag paneer and madras. The owner came out and chatted to us at the end of the meal - highly recommend.

Lovely family-owned restaurant. Fantastic food and service, I've eaten here several times in the past year. Always a treat!

One of the best Indian meals that I have ever had. Very good service and price. The menu had a very varied selection. The food was all hot and freshly cooked

Excellent food and friendly service as always. Our favourite Indian restaurant- samosas and peshwari naan are favourites!

Great food, very nice people. Would definitely go back again.

The chicken dhansak is one of the best I have ever had, peshwari naan is also delicious. The best curry house for miles around. If you go anywhere else after visiting Lina’s you’ll be disappointed.

We ate at Lina Tandoori for the first time yesterday and it was absolutely fantastic! We’re not local but wanted to try somewhere new, and we will certainly be coming back. We loved every single item we ordered, you can tell Chef Ala takes great care and pride in the food he serves. This is a really friendly family run business, we felt very welcome and were so well looked after by Chef Ala who came out to make sure everyone was enjoying their food, and his daughter who served us and was so lovely from start to finish! Unfortunately we were too full to stay for more, but we will definitely be staying for dessert next time! Wishing Ala the best of luck with his running training, and also his son the best of luck with his training in the kitchen for the family business! Thank you for a wonderful evening!

Made a booking for a fairly big party. We were greeted warmly and served promptly. Throughout the meal, service was fantastic and friendly, and our food was delicious. Would definitely recommend visiting.

Lovely atmosphere and staff. Food excellent.

We were visiting Beale wildlife park and looking for a place to eat. We found this place purely based on google review and ratings. It was 14:30 already and unfortunately it was closed according to the opening hours written in google.My wife took her chances and called the restaurant. Ali bhai, chef of the restaurant, invented us to come in. Restaurant is a small but lovely place. It’s a family business run by Ali bhai who personally greeted and served us. Foods were amazing, one of the best Bengali/Indian food we ever eat in the UK and we have tried a lot of desi restaurants so far.They also made us complimentary Bengali tea. Will definitely visit again and recommend others to visit. On another note,I have seen people in my life who do their job with love, Ali bhai is definitely one of them.

Amazing food and friendly service. The king prawn dhansak and the brinjal bhaji are a personal favourite. Really good range of beers too - would definitely recommend.

I took my wife for dinner at Lina Tandoori on Valentine's Day. We had a superb evening. The service was charming, helpful and discreet, the food cooked to perfection and the whole experience was a delight. We have been before and I've been with friends. We can't wait to go back. Lina Tandoori is irresistible.

Amazing food which was delicious and so reasonably priced, the owner Ali and his family were all lovely and v welcoming. Would definite recommend for a proper decent curry!

Such a lovely restaurant and amazing meal. Not greasy at all and a really relaxed and enjoyable meal. Such good value for money, will definitely be back!

Wanted something simple and lovely for Valentine's Day... Great food, great prices and friendly team. Will be back again if in the area!

Superb evening, excellent food and service, I would always thoroughly recommend. I’ve been a customer for many years. Ali and family always very welcoming.

We drove from Oxford to Lina Tandoori and we're so glad we did. Definitely adding this spot to our favourites list!

What a find! After a short trip from Oxford, we stumbled upon Lina Tandoori, and it was totally worth the journey. The food was fantastic, bursting with flavour and authenticity. From the tandoori chicken to the garlic naan, everything was spot on. The service was friendly and efficient, making our meal even more enjoyable. If you're in the area, don't miss out on this family-run gem!

Delicious food and very welcoming. Lemon rice is so tasty. 🍋
