Masala Junction in Nottingham

Ordered a takeaway, for collection. Restaurant quality food that was brilliant. Had the home style Goat and Methi Chicken, done Punjabi style. This was as authentic as you get. Excellent flavour profile. I expect that everything on the menu is excellent. Would highly recommend.

Went here today and the chicken Tikka masala was the only standout dish. The rest of the food ordered were very below par and the food was missing that essential kick to ensure that scrumptious element to it hence the three starts. Do not recommend this place to anyone who wants proper Indian food.

excellent food excellent service wonderful . everything spot on. Will return again and again.

Amazing food, very attentive service and incredibly accommodating in making my food allergy-safe. Every dish we had was beautifully spiced and flavours were superbly balanced. A huge thank you for a fabulous meal.

Me and my partner had an absolutely lovely 3 course meal here a couple of weeks ago. So much so I am still going on about it! I eat out fairly regularly and this place stands out as excellent quality, professional service in beautiful clean surroundings. I highly recommend it.

Best indian cuisine in Nottingham. Super friendly and Professional Service. Very good dishes.

We’ve been meaning to visit this place for a long time and haven’t got around to it. Wow it was fabulous! Friendly staff, beautiful decor, lovely relaxed, atmosphere. I had the best seasonal vegetable jalfrezi that I have had in a. Very long time! Gorgeous chunky veg (not diced frozen veg) - it was so delicious! Can’t wait to return, with our friends!

Cracking food & brilliant staff. Highly recommend

Easily the best in Nottingham - we’ve been around 8 times now, as groups of 2-10 and the food has been just as good despite the larger tables to service. Also just as good mid-week or a busy Saturday. Depth of flavour and presentation are superb. Interior great as often you compromise on interior for a more authentic Indian flavour. Yes, a bit more expensive than your average, but a) we’ve wasted much more money on less and b) it’s still the same price as a good quality pub meal. Booked this evening to introduce another friend!

Had to take my sister and nephew visiting from California. They absolutely loved it. Service, ambience, food, everything. They even said they'd try making GF chapattis which turned out OK. My nephew was super happy to have his chicken tikka masala "desified' as he likes hot & spicy. Definitely somewhere to go to for special occasions. They surprised my sister with a birthday firecracker cheesecake and all because they'd heard us. Highly recommend.

Food worth travelling for in a really striking setting.

the best Indian food in Nottingham

Delicious food & excellent customer service, we’ll be back regularly!

Food was amazing but quantity of starter was less.

Our first time visiting tonight, we're from out of town (birmingham) our area is pretty well known for its curry restraunts but I have to say the lamb I had here was the best we've ever eaten. We cannot recommend this place enough the food was fantastic and if we are ever in the area we will 100% be coming back here. Fantastic !

Everything was fantastic. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated, the service was excellent-friendly and efficient-and the food was some of the best Indian food we have had.

Just had goat curry from here wow what a wonderful goat curry it's was will definitely be ordering again

For $60 got biriani which was nice, a fish main, bit watery, rice, $6 for 2 prawns! Chipaties and bread............. $60 and nothing special or big portions. For value for money I recommend indigo or Desi. I know I knew the prices when i placed order, but was willing to splash out and expected something exceptional for the money and was disappointed. Could have spent half the money, and had a more enjoyable meal elsewhere. If wanting something special.......go somewhere else. I'm sorry, I've been stuck on dollar sign. I do mean pounds. Order was 25th May. You are correct. You don't do a prawn dish for 6 pounds, I paid 12 pounds for lahshuni prawns and only 2 over cooked prawns. Can include a screenshot of my receipt if still imagine am not in about your establishment. Was extremely underwhelmed when expected to be wowed by your food. Mid level takeaway standard. Desi hyson green 5 mins down road better and indigo mapperly, spice all alot better value and quality

My son and his, now wife, had their wedding reception here on Saturday and it was excellent. The decor and the tables were beautiful. The service was top notch and all of the food was delicious. I'd like to express our thanks for a wonderful experience!

Fantastic food, literally wiped the bowls clean. Always happy to cater to our vegan requests! Always great service.

Very slow service, 1hr 45m still no main. Starter of onion bhaji over cooked. Disappointed

2nd time in just over a month. Great place, food and service.

We were staying at the Mercure and wanted somewhere local. The reviews for Masala Junction online were fab but also the receptionist recommended it too. Our meal was delicious and we will return if we are in the Nottingham area again.

Truly delicious food! Prawn malabar, prawn biriani, kale kofta, carrot and beet patties, aloo tiki and perfect rice. Very efficient delivery too.

Superb. Food and service were simply brilliant. Cannot fault Masala Junction at all. We ate at 8pm on a Saturday, restaurant was busy but not too full so the atmosphere was just right. Starters were very enjoyable - perfect size to whet your appetite, especially the Tulasi Tikka. We ordered a variety of dishes for our group of four, king prawn, fish and chicken. All were delightful, not too heavy on the spices (accurate to their descriptions) with incredible depth but not drowning out the more delicate flavours. Masala Junction was recommended by Indian friends as being their favourite restaurant in Nottingham, and it certainly lives up to that. We will return.

The waiter was amiable and welcoming, but I found the food oily, and I didn't get the choice of sauce with the scallops, it didn't work for me. Onion bhaji had no Onion in it, Samosa's were heavy and the pastry was thick and they covered them in a sauce which spoilt them, overall it was a disappointment and I would not recommend this restaurant to friends and family

Our first visit. Food was excellent, service was quick and unobtrusive and the price was good too. Would recommend to anyone. Definitely will be going again.

The variety of Indian cuisine is excellent. Good service. Cozy atmosphere.

Best Indian Restaurant in Nottingham by far!

Ive been visiting this restaurant since it opened. Ive been several times since it was sold to the current owner and for the most part the quality has been maintained, however, on my most recent visit I came away with a sense that something has changed. The service is still excellent but the food is not quite the same. Additionally, there is gaffer tape holding some of the leather seating together and if you catch in wrong its very sticky on your hands, not exactly in line with the premium price that is charged. My wife and I both came away with a feeling of 'sort of'. Everything was sort of as we expected but just not quite the same. There have been subtle changes to the poppadum's and nan breads which definitely feel cheaper. Additionally, the starters and mains were 'sort of' what we expected but it just felt there were subtle changes that have impacted the overall quality of the food, the sauce for the Goan fish curry has definitely been changed and not for the better. Maybe there is a new chef or supplier, who knows, its just not quite the same. The big problem now is 'do we go back'. Its not the cheapest restaurant around but we always viewed a visit here as a treat knowing we would get great service and outstanding food. On the basis the food quality has dropped, it's difficult to justify the additional expense for what was in reality an average meal. Such a shame, because the staff are lovely and we usually enjoy the food. Hopefully this was a one off experience and things improve in the future.

EXTRAORDINARY ***** Yesterday evening on the 29th of December, my beautiful baby cutie & Fiancé Katarina celebrated her birthday. I wished to surprise her with a dinner reservation someplace new and even the Cuisine I kept a secret. "Fine Dining Indian Restaurant" are the keywords that won my commitment to booking us a table for 2 at Masala Junction. The Restaurant is situated within a stunning Old Bank Building (built in 1929) with architectural features to pleasure even the most fastidious Diner. The atmosphere in Masala Junction Restaurant is warmly 'pitch perfect' and so is its Staff. Shoutout is so deserved for Akash (apologies if spelled incorrectly) who was our most astutely fantastic Host/Server for the evening. He made our dinner at Masala Junction Restaurant as memorable for all the best reasons as can be experienced anywhere else. The food here is almost ridiculously delicious & my Saag Gosht was truly the BEST Saag I have ever tasted out of the 9 countries where I had ordered the dish. A quiet word with Akash during my Fiancé's shorter powder room step away, led to him in total quiet preparing a luxury cake with lit-Sparkler to surprise Katarina the Birthday Chica at the end of our meal. I met the Owner in happenstance before our exit and he is a stellar human being that deserves Masala Junction's success. Thank you so much everyone at Masala Junction Restaurant, Nottingham ---

Recently ordered a Christmas Dinner takeaway meal from Masala Junction which included the superb Goat ka Salan and a very tasty curated Lamb Rogan Josh. Everything ordered was excellent quality. A first class service and first class food.

The best Indian restaurant in Nottingham. That really sums it up, the food is exceptional! Give the methi murgh a try, an incredible thick sauce, almost paste like with fenugreek, herbs and spices, packed with flavour, delicious! The staff are professional and friendly, the restaurant is spotless and tastefully decorated, just a wonderful culinary experience, well worthy of travelling the small distance from the city. Cant wait to go back, thanks to the team, keep up the great work!

Excellent food for both the vegetarians and the meat eaters with an extensive menu. Service was fast, staff were attentive. A great night out.

We were very interested to experience Marsala Junction again after it being taken over by the owners of the Mesaab in Nottingham. Just as we expected, everything ran like clockwork and we had a superb meal. The only very small criticism we has was that care needs to be taken of the air conditioning temperature since the restaurant felt too cold for comfort. Otherwise, an extremely enjoyable experience.

Genuinely impressed. It’s a long time since I have been in this part of Nottingham but for this food and this service I would visit again, all the way from the Netherlands.

This is a lovely restaurant with a great ambiance and lovely staff. It is beautifully set out and great background music. The food was one of the best Indian meals I have had and the wine was really good. Will definitely be going again.

We had the most amazing food. Extremely well presented. Absolutely delicious. The best Indian food I have ever tasted 😋 service was outstanding. Will definitely be going back. A big plus was free parking.

Had a wonderful meal - excellent service, nice atmosphere, and delicious food, with an extensive vegan menu. Highly recommended.

I frequently passed by this place and recently made a visit. I was thoroughly impressed – it's undoubtedly one of the best Indian restaurants in Nottingham. The food was incredibly flavorful, from the starters to the main course. The service was excellent too. I'm definitely planning to go back again.

Probably the best Indian I've had. Beautiful setting, attentive genuine friendly service and the most delicious food. Interesting and original menu, everything was just lovely.

Food and service is outstanding! Fine dining at its best!

Over priced. Bland food. Forgot my starter but still charged us for it. Waiters staring throughout meal.

We had to try this in person after discovering them on JustEat coming out of the pandemic. We were impressed with the food then and knew that we wanted to taste some of the dishes that don't naturally travel well such as 'chaats', tandoori breads or desserts with kulfi & ice cream. And we weren't disappointed. Fabulous, varied selection of veggie & vegan starters and sides which were all very well balanced in terms of oil, seasoning and spices. Service was excellent as was the decor and ambience of the restaurant itself. Mum loved the Lahori choley and Rasmalai which took her back to her childhood tastes from old Delhi. We will be returning. Good to know that with notice the breads can be made using gluten free flour.

Lovely food and good value for money. A lovely place to have some curry in a fancier setting.I went with a party of 4 and booked a table which I would recommend doing. I got to taste lots of things and I would recommend the lamb pudino bot with a chicken tikka masala starter. I got a starter, 2bbeers, main, rice, naan and shared dessert and it came to £50 per person so good value I think. Overall I would definitely come back.

Excellent food and fabulous service. I cannot recommend this place enough.

A fabulous local restaurant in Carringtin. Delicious food, made with top quality ingredients, served with a smile. Couldn't ask for more. Enjoyed every morsal!!!

Indian dishes, with a twist. Absolutely delicious with fantastic customer service. Great value for money too! The team had to deal with a very rude man, trying to impress the two young women with him, by being obnoxious. They were professional and calm, despite his pompous behaviour. Well done to the staff.

Nice food , not heavy, good flavors. Enjoyable. Atmosphere classic music! Humm but never the less chilled

The food itself was excellent, a clever , innovate twist on traditional "Indian" food. Sat in the very centre of the restaurant was a large group with 5 children, ranging from a baby upwards. The older children were totally out of control - screaming, running around, throwing food about etc etc. None of the parents took any action, and the restaurant staff/management simply watched. From the body language of the other clients, most were as annoyed as we were. Some restaurants now have "over 12's" nights, or a policy that children must remain at the table at all times. Unless they want to lose many of their clients Masala Junction need to consider action such as this.

Excellent tasty and well presented food as usual and the staff very were professional

Very expensive. You can find the same food at quite cheaper price. It's just the status thing to go there.

الأكل الحلال الذيذ أجواء جدا جميله

Thank you for such an excellent meal we have had such a wonderful evening and the service was amazing the girls from Skin clinics have loved the dining experience

Wow. Just wow! I called at 20:30 on a Saturday to book a table for 21:30 and was greeted by a lovely man who booked us in, no trouble. When we entered the building it was instantly warm and welcoming, with soft but upbeat music playing at the perfect volume. The ambience was spot on. Once seated, our drinks order was taken and poppadoms with dips were brought to us very quickly. The corrainder dip was sublime, a really fresh flavour. Starters were onion bhajis and the paneer and brocoli dish - both my partner and myself thoroughly enjoyed these. I had never had brocoli served in this way and it really worked! Mains were chicken tikka masala and chicken xacutti which were delicious and perfectly spiced. We shared a pilau rice and had a naan each (my partner doesn't like pershwari but it's my favourite!). If we didn't live so far away this would be our new go to! Everything about the service, food, drinks, menu, decor... It was all 100/10

We decided to visit Masala Junction for a family celebration. The atmosphere was relaxing, tables nicely set out and spotlessly clean, service was superb, food was delicious and beautifully presented. Highly recommend . Thank you for a lovely evening.

Great food. Very tasty Highly recommended

Here for work, fantastic meal poppadoms were great, Chicken Tikka starter was incredible, garlic naan great and the naan shihari was very good. The service was impeccable, I have had worse In Michelin restaurants! It was a bit quiet in there, but it is also a Wednesday.

Food was excellent and really enjoyed Will be back.

Excellent food as usual, the staff were attentive and welcoming. Great value for money given the quality of both the food and service.

Really enjoyed our time here. Staff are attentive, atmosphere is nice and relaxed, food is great. Which we'd visited before! Nice hidden gem of a place.

The service was amazing the staff was extremely polite and friendly the food was delicious and really nicely cooked I definitely recommend this restaurant

We do really like this place, only go for special occasions as it is pricey! Lovely atmosphere and great food. Usually would score 5, but the onion bhajis were sooooo disappointing, too well done and all we received for £6.25 was 2 tiny bhajis, don't mind paying the price but come on the portion size definitely didn't justify it. We will return again and I still recommend, just hope the feedback is welcomed and acted upon.

What can you say when everything was perfect. Food perfect, so tasty. Wine perfect, service perfect. Haven't been for a while, and have missed it. Love the jazz background music too, it adds a bit extra.

Delicious food, generous portions, great service and they were so friendly and patient with the kids too.

Simply awesome . Brilliant attentive staff great menu* amazing food - will. Be going there again

Came for a curry as part of a business networking event held by Nottingham City Business club. I wanted to try it as it’s been taken over a few months ago by the family that runs the excellent MemSaab in the city centre of Nottingham. Well, can I give the chefs kudos for the tasty combination of crisp poppadom and tasty chutney starters, a main course sized starter with a variety of classic Indian food and a wonderful selection of mains, including melt in the mouth lamb (no fat) delicious chicken and fish curries, a variety of sides including pilau rice, garlic infused vegetables, salad and raita . We were given our own space with two huge tables for 24 people so had the full VIP experience. Service was sublime. Excellent, highly recommended for a company meal and network event.

Great food, with amazing service and friendly staff

The very best Indian Restaurant in Nottingham.

What can I say about Masala Junction, the food was 5🌟. The waiters were really knowledgeable about the menu and really friendly They have a great menu for vegans, and they made the Roti vegan for as the pitta bread wasn't, which was really nice. I really could have eaten the food over again but really didn't want to be greedy. The dessert, which was a chocolate fudge cake, was mmmm..... just enough. It was our first experience at Masala Junction and DEFINITELY, not the last.

Food ok not sure how authentic it is thou 🤔

Lovely food ! A bit pricey😏 Service was good and staff was very attentive Went there with my family for dinner following our stay at the Claremont Hotel. We were not disappointed

Остро, вкусно, мягкая бургундия в винной карте. Очень доброжелательно.

Peaceful and quiet place to sit and enjoy a meal, the very best restaurants in Nottingham . Highly recommend

Great food and service as always, when we've visited.

Delicious. 1st time we have been to this place. Will 100% be going again soon. Staff was great, food amazing

Lovey food, lots of variety on menu. Good portion sizes - we over ordered. Great service and good value for money. Great all round Indian!

Very nice place, with calm atmosphere. food and service were perfect for us and we would love to come again when we are in the area.

This place in amazing the food was the best I’ve tested in along time extremely recommended

I've only just walked out of this restaurant and felt compelled to write a review immediately (which i never do). This is without exaggeration one of the finest, if not the finest, Indian dining experiences I've ever had. The food was divine, the service was excellent and the bill should've been more. If you're anywhere within 50 miles of Nottingham and fancy a good curry, get yourself down here, its incredible.

Fabulous restaurant, any excuse to sample the fantastic food and service.

We had a truly unforgettable time celebrating my birthday. Food very well presented, lovely flavours. Junction Jalfrezi was amazing!

Amazing place to eat, the food is absolutely top quality cooked to perfection, the staff were very helpful and very polite, service was 10/10 will definitely be coming again thank you

Absolutely incredible meal. Food was exceptional, service great and vibe ‘buzzy’. Probably one of the best Indians I’ve had.

Masala Junction seriously exceeded expectations for their Valentine evening. Restaurant tables were beautifully adorned with red hearts & roses, the menu choice & quality of the food was excellent, staff very slick & friendly and the saxophonist created a great ambiance. Cost of the evening was very reasonable indeed for all it delivered. A great effort by all involved. Our first visit, but will definitely be back

Food was exceptional with a good number of options. Service was excellent as well, with the servers being very attentive but not too intrusive. I forgot my phone at the table and our server ran outside to hand it back to me, which he didn't need to do but I now have a fun anecdote to say when suggesting this as an option to friends. It was lovely atmosphere and will definitely come back for another visit!

I went here for an event, raising money for Maggie's Nottingham. Had a really great time, the food was amazing. Indian food isn't something I've really had before, but masala junction has converted me, the food was incredible. With it being an even we had a choice of foods, which was great as it meant I was able to try different foods and loved it all. Can't wait to go again.

Food is good but over priced, 75 pounds for two people (only one starter Ordered, no desserts, and one alcoholic drink)

This has to be one of the best dining experiences in Nottingham. The staff are incredibly conscientious and attentive to customers - from even taking your coat, every detail is considered. The venue is beautiful, and the music compliments an ambient atmosphere. The cocktails are...

Booked this place last minute for my birthday which was the second of January,,, was a big party of 12 ! The staff was absolutely brilliant! Wonderful atmosphere and amazing food !! So glad they stayed open , couldn't of wished for a better birthday meal / outing , thank you xxx

Got to be THE best tasting indian food i have ever had, service and decor, toilets, everything impeccable. Should we ever visit Nottingham again, we will definitely be back 🙂

Went to Masala Junction to celebrate friends birthday. Lovely, festive atmosphere on a busy Saturday evening, service was good, wine was good, curry was delicious. Really lovely experience, not cheap but worth the money for good quality food and drinks.

Nice. Service time was poor. Taste okay. Got food after 1 hr. Over Priced restaurant. Keep your items rates reasonable please to attract in future. Thanks Abhishek

I came across this place during a short stay in Nottingham. It is a fine dining restaurant and the menu intrigued me. After a lovely conversation with the manager, I decided to get a takeaway and am very pleased that I did. The vegetable samosas were excellent and served with some chick peas, chat style. The chicken tikka was also excellent and Amritsari tilapia fish was simply unique. However, the Junction Goat Ka Salan stole the show. It is an authentic family recipe and was magnificent. I really look forward to going back to this brilliant operation.

Situated in a wonderful old bank building the Masala Junction is conveniently situated within 5 min stroll from the Mercury hotel. On our arrival my wife & I received a very warm welcome and we’re shown to our table. Inside was decorated for Christmas however the restaurant’s own tasteful decor was attractive and very fitting. The menu although not huge had a very good choice of starters, Mains and deserts, additionally a varied choice of wines was available. We ordered the onion barji & vegetable samosas which arrived swiftly, both looked & tasted amazing! For Mains we ordered Chicken Jalfrezi which was a tasty, and delightfully spicy dish & Chicken Tika Tak also delicious although less spicy. Both dishes were generous portions, super tasty, food arrived nice and hot and all was complimented by sides of light perfectly cooked Pilau rice, potato & spinach Sag and quite possibly the best Nan bread we’ve ever tasted! We were both too full for deserts so unable to review those other than to say that what was on offer looked incredibly diverse and sounded delicious. The wine was also superb and the service was outstanding, we cannot fault anything and would highly recommend.

Having tried various Indian restaurants in and around Nottingham I'm usually underwhelmed, so delighted to be charmed by this place. Attended a private dining party and the food and service and atmosphere was fantastic - really tasty starter of assorted dishes and great chicken and...

Extremely well laid out plenty of room between tables. Staff very attentive. Food excellent, well cooked to your liking, hot or spicy or in-between. Slightly expensive but we'll worth it.

Visited as I had heard that the food here was really good, really liked the decor and the ambiance of the establishment. Also a BIG thumbs-up for me was the tablecloths,service was slow and everything took ages to arrive. My currie was good but that's all. My partner had the lamb shank which was a bit tuff. Lastly the bill was a bit eye watering £77 For two with no alcohol just two cokes. And a salt lassie. If the Food was as good as I was told I may go back . But it wasn't.

Not great. Food was quite expensive for what is was. Especially the onion bhaji. Worse of all was being made to go past their bins, through the back to take my pick up order.
