Memsaab - Leamington in Warwick

Came here for a dinner with work colleagues on a week night. Very tasty food and great service. Nice decor. Reasonable price, perhaps a bit on the high side.

Exceptional service and food was outstanding, extra effort was made for my birthday with a special desert, we will definitely be back, worth the trip from rugby for a fantastic meal.

A very warm welcome upon arrival and the friendliness continued during our time at the restaurant. Excellent service and fantastic food

High quality, authentic food, beautifully presented with excellent customer service. One of the best!

Good welcome and spotlessly clean excellent choice of starters and all piping hot and beautiful spices good choice of main course

Friendly and accommodating staff but mediocre and average food. Poppadoms were soft and chewy. Curry was OK but nothing creative. Better alternatives exist

I saw some reviews online about being too salty/ not nice etc but decided to ignore as there were lots of ‘excellent’ reviews. So sad I didn’t, I’ve never had such revolting food in my life, too salty, hardly any chicken (if I had wanted to eat), bland, just revolting. The only edible thing was the naan.

Went out with family and friends. Ordered a sizzler and a portion of lamb Sheesh kebab. There were 3 pieces of chicken and onle sheesh kebab cut into 3 and it was for £15.99. Portion of lamb Sheesh kebab was £6.99 for one kebab cut into 3 pieces. The main course was definitely not India, worst food I've ever had. The small restaurants in the town do far better. We wanted to go somewhere nice but the quality of food was zero. Wouldn't mind paying for the food if it's up to mark. Being an Indian and brought up in India I can say it was definitely nowhere near Indian food. Chicken was not properly cooked, chicken gravy and dhaal tastes same(tomato flavour) Will not recommended Leamington branch to anyone The only nice thing was the breads.

Decor was really nice, chairs were comfy and the staff were top notch. I had ostrich for starter (you can't get it anywhere else!) and lamb tikka tandoori for main. Both were very tasty but you don't get much for what you pay in terms of the lamb tikka. Generally slightly overpriced for everything.

Easy to get a walk in table on Friday or Sat night and after eating there recently I understand why. A limited menu but the food is still poor. Almost tastes like it’s from a jar with a quick stir through. Two different Mains tasted almost identical. Pilau rice was boiled rice with a bit of food colouring poured over. I felt like going into the kitchen and dragging the chef out of by his ear and announcing to the other diners “ I’ve got him” All the more disappointing because it used to be good and I like the ambience of the place. The kitchen is letting this place down.

Visited early on a Saturday and enjoyed fantastic food and excellent friendly prompt service . The music was great too !

Fantastic meal at Memsaab. Service was impeccable and very thoughtful. The food was delicious (tried tikka and onion bhaji, butter chicken and lamb rogan josh and brownie and gulab Jamba). One rice and naan between two was perfect to share. Really good quality worth a more premium price. Venue was styled elegantly but quiet for a Friday night so clearly a hidden gem. Thank you for a great night!

We had family get together at short notice and the food and service was outstanding. One of our group is a regular so that may have helped but I got the impression that normal service is very good. I had Prawn Jalfrezi and it was superb.

When I first decided to order from this restaurant I phoned them up and they told me that the whole menu is gluten free! I have been ordering from them ever since. I am not very adventurous with my order (usually chicken tikka masala) so I can’t comment too much on the whole menu. However for me, their curry hits the spot and I would recommend for celiacs.

We have ordered take aways from Mem Saab a number of times now as we can’t resist the tasty non greasy curry’s, they always have beautiful flavour without the grease of a normal curry and it’s always hot and freshly cooked. The curry’s have a slightly varied taste each time, whether this be a slight difference in heat or flavour, we love this as not only does it show how fresh the ingredients are, but it also means it’s not the same each time adding variety. I can’t recommend this take away enough, the staff are always super friendly and will go out of their way to help you decide what to have. They are really friendly and polite and also value us as customers; they even remember our order, which is great customer service in my opinion. The cheesy garlic bread is so delicious, so if you like a bit of naughty in your naan like us, then this is definitely for you! We don’t feel guilty for eating a curry from Mem Saab at least once a month as it never feels fatty/greasy. We will continue to use Mem Saab and would highly recommend you give it a try. You won’t regret it. From a very happy and satisfied customer : ) Seb and Jen

Love the currys here! They’re the best in Leamington. Nice fresh ingredients, lovely staff and always consistent.

We ordered a delivery from Memsaab and the food was just really disappointing. It was entirely tasteless, greasy and actually quite expensive. Certainly not worth the money.

big disappointment. Reduced menu and portions to basics but prices are top!!!! Main no different to starters!!!! This is the way to lose fans. Shame!!!

A great variety of Indian food and all cooked fresh, with amazing flavours. The staff were all extremely friendly and the Manager was always around, to ensure the guests were happy.My wife and I always come here for a date night, when we want Indian food, as it more discerning that the average Indian resaurantVery good social distancing.

We thought we would give Memsaab another try after a disappointing meal about 3 years ago. Unfortunately nothing has changed.... The fish starter was overcooked and our mains were tasteless and watery. We really wanted it to be amazing as the staff were very pleasant and professional. Regrettably we will not be visiting this place again. There are more authentic Indian restaurants in Leamington!

Fancied a treat, choose Memsaab and we weren't disappointed. Very pleasant surroundings and excellent service. For starters I had the Tandoor Gobi Tukra (cauliflower) as I fancied something a bit different to usual. It was lovely, gently spice and cooked to perfection, really enjoyed it. My wife chose the Chicken, Fish and Prawn Pakora which she also enjoyed. For mains we choose the Duo of Chicken which was wonderful. Quite well spiced (possibly a tad too much for me) but really enjoyed it. Certainly not a curry house, definitely Indian Fine Dining. Absolutely loved the place and will certainly recommend it.So much choice, I would study the menu before you go, and there are also specials.

Lovely welcome. Great service. Happy staff. Clean tasty food. Clean surroundings and restroom Good value. Will be back.

Dinner for two on a Wednsday evening. Being midweek the restaurant was a bit quiet but a party of guys turned up and it livened up. Service and attention to us was superb throughout. The starters of Butterfly Prawns from the tandoor and an onion bhajia were very nice and to be commended. It was also a nice touch to see a daily special which lifted my spirits because this is not something you see very often. I was expecting a recipe lovingly crafted during the day and served until it ran out. Sadly this creation using strips of chicken breast was bland and tasted like boiled chicken. I suspect it created some moments before it was served and had nothing to commend it. I did make the point at the time but it was met with a shrug of the shoulders. The other main lamb dish was execellent by contrast.I will happily go again but Mem Saab please make the "special" a dish by which you would like to be judged. If it was oustanding it would be real attraction. So, don't give this up just raise the bar. I am sure you are up it.The meal with two rounds of drinks and tip £68.

The place is ok, but from all the Indian food places in Leamington and Warwick, I would not chose Mem Saab again. The food was tasty and fresh but I probably had higher expectations from an Indian fine dining...

We were a party of about 16, given a long table in the window. Decor is dark and intimate, seats comfortable, attention to detail with beautiful napkins. Service was excellent throughout - no missed dishes, no staggered delivery, all hot (although the plates weren't: my only niggle). The menu is varied and interesting, unlike most curry houses, with a special Starter and Main of the day. I had three courses, which I don't normally. It's not cheap, because it's a cut above the norm. The toilets are clean and smart too (yes it does matter), with individual towels. Really enjoyed the evening and left happy, with a heavier bill than I'd expected.

The food was excellent and was served very promptly, there was no problem about geting additional rice. The staff were friendly and helpful. The restaurant was very quiet, but it was a Sunday evening.

My husband and I had dinner here last night, the selection of food was really good and the quality of the meat was great. We both really enjoyed our main, that along with one naan to share and some bhajis was way too much food for us. We reluctantly couldn’t finish! Will definitely return

I visit this Indian anytime I am in the area. The portion sizes look small compared to other Indian restaurants but they end up being just right, with no waste. The lamb jalfrezei is the best I have ever had. Just the right flavour/heat ratio. The owner, if he is there, always gives a warm welcome to his guests. The atmosphere is also very pleasant. I read some of the bad reviews and I am amazed by some of the comments. I know everyone's taste is different but I have never been disappointed by any meal I have eaten here. My favourite Indian... Yet!

We had our anniversary meal and had a lovely evening. Staff were lovely and the food was superb. My main course was so good I didn’t share it haha. ‘Joey doesn’t share food’. Wonderful evening and hope we get to back soon.

Good food, nice ambience. Worth a visit. Not your usual selection of meals on the menu. Opportunity to try some different dishes

Came on a Saturday night for a 7.30 table. We weren’t seated until nearer 8pm and didn’t get our starters until 9pm.

Service was great but not so great food. Food was not authentic at all. Had the chilli prawn starter but it tasted like a Chinese stir fry dish & no chilli’s. Quite expensive & very small portions. Better Indian restaurants in Leamington. Am afraid would not go back again or recommend unless you want bland Indian food

Very impressed with the whole place. Service was superb as was Food and atmosphere. Give it a go you won't be disappointed

We visited this restaurant for a meal last weekend. The customer service was excellent, we were greeted by the owner himself and he was very warm and welcoming. He was so helpful and kind to our baby girl. We really enjoyed our meal and instead of the typical Bengali food I was pleasantly surprised with a variety of tasty dishes. I have spent all my life from the age of about one visiting Indian restaurants because of my dad’s business so feel like I can be rather critical when dining out for an Indian meal. We will definitely be going back.

We've been going to Memsaab for years now - it is always a treat. Can't find fault with anything - the food is always exceptional, full of flavour, not just overwhelming with spices; the staff is friendly and attentive; the place itself is lovely - smart, has great ambience, not super-bright-lit to kill the atmosphere like most restaurants do, the music is great, always tasteful & varied - I keep looking for their playlists on Spotify :) The menu is vegan-friendly by the way. Couldn't recommend it enough.

Had a meal out with friends on our arrival was met with a friendly face and was shown to our table. The staff were helpful in choosing our meals we will definitely will be returning .

We eat here quite often. The food is consistently great, the service warm and welcoming and the decor makes it all feel very special. I can’t recommend it highly enough...

Beautiful Chicken Biriyani, served with Tarka Daal salad and yoghurt dressing. All breast meat, fresh coriander. Excellent beef and Potato Madras. Staff very good.

Had the one chicken biryani and it taste so horrible, what am I to do it right? Should I rap for the better service?

Very nice restaurant, very good food, waitresses...... could have been a little friendlier but that's being picky. Been here several times and always enjoyed it and probably be back BUT 'service' charge leaves a bad taste! Drop it guys, you'd have got a tip anyway but a tip is just that, a voluntary expression of appreciation for the service provided, not a fixed sum demanded as part of the bill!! As said, guess be back again one day but you're second on my list to anywhere else that allows me to make my mind up whether you're worth the extra 10%! Don't take it or my custom for granted.

We came here for my birthday with my family (wife and two daughters) and my parents. We'd booked a table and got a decent area, and the waiters were really welcoming ad extremely polite. It was quiet (mainly because I think we were early as I have tried coming here before and it was packed), so the waiters were attentive and served us quickly and efficiently. Food and drink came out in a timely manner. Food had a good level of taste to it.

Booked Memsaab for a party of 8, celebrating my brothers 30th. The restaurant is very cosy and warm, decor is lovely and the ambience is very inviting. Staff and management extremely friendly and accommodating. The food is of a very high standard and the menu comprises of a mixture Anglo Indian Cuisine. Great selection of drinks to try. Would definitely visit here again.

The service was excellent warm and friendly the decor and atmosphere made the evening. It isn’t cramped and has large tables with ample space. We had Onion Bhaji starter for 4 they were amazing but £23 for four people! The food is unique and freshly made would I go again no it’s authentic and aromatic but not for me

I booked this restaurant for a family event to celebrate my Father’s 80th birthday last night. Right from the very start, Manny was very accommodating, he helped me plan a specific menu for the night and made sure that I didn’t over order. The service was fantastic and the food delightful which considering there was 22 of us, was no easy feat. Best of all my father left feeling very happy. I have dined here before and also had takeaways from here and the food has always been really tasty.

This spacious and stylish Indian restaurant has been a favourite of ours for some years. The menu is 'Anglo-Indian' - although so are most British Indian restaurants - allowing them to feature some unusual dishes. There are also the usual favourites such as Chicken Tikka Masala. Everything is cooked with a light touch, however, and the flavours are fresh and flavoursome. Service is friendly and very efficient and there is a comfy waiting area for tables or for takeaways. I have never known them not to accommodate us no matter how busy they are. Decor is sophisticated and classy making it a good destination for a special occasion or date night. Everyone I've ever brought here has loved it.

Sorry no disrespect to others...I am an Indian and can genuinely taste an authentic Indian food....the menu items are very authentic, service and food taste was very authentic and excellent. 5 stars from me

Three of us visited and we had the special 3 courses for £14.50 menu which was excellent value for money. We each ordered different dishes and we all enjoyed all the food we had the portion sizes were just right. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely go back next time we're in Leamington.

We’ve been dining at Memsaab for years and we’ve always had lovely food and great service. The variety of food is perfect, the curries are tasty and not greasy, and we wouldn’t go anywhere else for Indian food in Leamington!

Visited here after seeing reviews on Google maps whilst passing through the area. Good choice on menu, lovely food. Will visit again if I'm back this way again

Fuimos para celebrar un cumpleaños y a pesar de ser un gran grupo la comida llegó bastante rapido y el servicio fue bueno. La comida como siempre muy rica, sabores intensos y autenticos.

oh no! very bad bad curry not com again, me ask for spisy and got mild. waste of money, very bad curry. du not recomgmend

A group of us decided to dine at Memsaab we had thought it would be a great place to eat with service to match. Boy were we disappointed, when we arrived we got a table and had to wait a considerable amount of time for menus, the waiter was not helpful at all and after asking for recommendations his dishes did not deliver. We asked for advice with our breads again the information was poor. I can only describe this as experience as a good location and that was it poor food, poor service and lack of willingness of the waiters and team to help, disappointing

A lovely meal at Mem Saab. Great service from friendly staff, and the food was delicious as always. The nan bread alone is worth going here for.

I have heard a lot about this restaurant in Leamington so wanted to try with friends. Three of us visited the restaurant on Friday evening, the messed up with our drink orders in delivery n bill both. One of my friend did not finished starter but staff picked his plate. Food Quantity is very less and quantity is average, they have great ambience.

This is a smart curry house and Manny is a great host - always attentive. I enjoyed the vegetarian options, beautifully presented and tasty. I had channa puri which was great - hot and tasty, followed by paneer palak. My wife had prawn, chicken and fish pakora followed by chicken muglai and loved it!

Being an Indian I like to try the variety Indian foods and restaurants outside India and I was quite disappointed with the in-hospitality of the staff in this restaurant and the way they were defending the tasteless food instead of apologizing or making amends. Starters and desserts were pathetic and only bearable part was the main course. Try some other restaurant instead of this - May be Kayal or Five Rivers.

A more upmarket Indian than the norm, good decor, good choice on the menu but the flavours just weren’t there. What a shame.

Definately best curry in the area; excellent spicy lamb palak and buttered lentils actually just like I had in India. Lovely lassi and nice roti’s. My husband didn’t like his as much as I did mine but he ate here last week too and had an excellent curry (though forgot what it was!). Is expensive though at £60 for dinner without starters. A lovely treat

Can't taste, Raw Chilli ground paste= to make it hot, Naan will be better even in supermarkets. Absolute distaster Take away

Never Ever try this restaurant, Curries are all tasteless . Heavily priced. We ordered half of the food available in...

We eat here regularly. We generally go for the vegetarian dishes as sides but had a friend with us so...

If you have no taste buds and want to pay over the odds for very little meat then you might...

Nos encanta este restaurante. Siempre comer allí cuando visitamos Leamington. La comida y el servicio es excelente y en general la experiencia de comer vale la pena una visita.

Buen ambiente, disfrutamos de la comida que pedí, sin embargo es un poco caro. Es mi segunda opción restaurante indio en Leamington Spa

Otra joya de restaurante dispuestos a ayudar con un vegetariano que ama la comida. La comida es realmente un corte por encima de la media de su restaurante indio. Ahora han sido varias veces. Mientras que el nivel es una variable poco, va desde muy bueno a muy bueno y realmente nunca decepciona en términos de calidad de sabores.

Totally professional, sublime food and great musicwho could ask for more ? Very charismatic owner who (usually) remembers everybody's name !

Indian food with such great flavour, This is 'PREMIER' league stuff with only one in the running.Outstanding service, outstanding food

Whilst, it has a pleasant feel and the staff are friendly and helpful and the food is decent, I was disappointed by certain aspects of my recent visit. Not leastly, the extortionate costs of pickles and a £30 service charge being added to the bill. There was a dirty glass presented to a member of the party which always worries me as you are left wondering about the hygene of the rest of the facilities.

He ido a cenar dos veces en las dos ultimas semanas y las dos veces genial. Se come super bien y los camareros son muy majos y eficientes. Tienen una buena lista de vinos y si te gusta la comida picante este es tu sitio (ya que los platos picantes son picantes de verdad). Eso si, la porciones podrían ser un poco más grandes la verdad (sobre todo por el precio).

A modern twist in decor, comfortable and spacious. Fine dining in a relaxed setting with unhurried service. The waiters were pleasant, not so sure about the attitude of the man in charge though!! Nil points for customer relations/skills. The food is presented well and is grease free. Pricing is fair although, £5 for two thin discs of Kulfi seemed rather excessive. Well worth a visit.

Real punjabi food. Lots of flavour without colourings and only fresh green chillis used. Brilliant sea food selection too.

Yes the décor is classy, the menu offers a few interesting dishes but I must admit had it not been for the nan breads I left feeling hungry. I felt like I had been for a tasting evening not an evening mealExpensive, small portions and under friendly staff -The place was half full when we arrived, tables are well laid out, quite close together and it was noisy due to the acoustics of the room.

I go here a few times a year . Foods always goodHappy they listen and have British meat...ie not halal.Place is clean and tidy and I will go backKeep it up

Enjoyed a very pleasant large group meal at Memsaab. The restaurant were very helpful in handling our reservation for 15 on a Friday evening. The staff in the restaurant on the evening were very friendly and attentive to our needs. The general consensus on the food was very positive and on a personal note I really enjoyed the mixed tandoori grill with many very tasty, well cooked meats. Will definitely look to return to try some of their other dishes.

How has this got even decent reviews? The staff were pleasant, charming even. But.......The curry was not even as good as you get in supermarkets. Very little meat in the dishes. Food not very hot and served in breakfast bowls not in the traditional dishes. We ordered pekora- what arrived was over fried discs that looked and tasted exactly like cardboard. So bad that we refused to pay for it. No towel, no mint at the end - not worth going out for.

We have been going to Memsaab for over a decade and have always enjoyed the food. Friday was no exception as we enjoyed the two star tandori dishes.I find walking difficult at the moment and the owner asked a colleague to take me home. Now that's service!

I really enjoy eating at memsaab. There's an extensive choice of curry on the menu but it is a little on the expensive side.The restaurant is well kept and has a very relaxed ambience. The staff are very attentive and friendly and provide quick, efficient service.

Booked for a Friday night and glad we did as would have been disappointed not to get in. Great welcome on arriving, good service all round and what fantastic food. Couldn't justify the cost every week but as a family treat it's well worth a visit.

Fui a cenar con una amiga y su familia. Lo primero que me impactó es que el decorado del restaurante es de muy buen gusto. Los camareros muy majos y la comida excelente. Comimos genial aunque si debería darles un consejo al restaurante sería poner porciones un poco más grandes que me quedé un poco con hambre al acabar. Pero eso sí, riquísimo todo.

we went on a wednesday evening family with teens, food we chose was the tandoori mix (fabulous) beef and potato madras ( succulent and very tasty)

My goto Indian in Leamington. I just love this place - good food, not greasy, lovely venue. Add some good company for an awesome night out.

This was our first visit with some close family and it was a lovely evening just the four of us, the restaurant felt cramped as waiters had to push past you chair each time they went to tables near ours, one waiter was so engrossed talking to his fellow waiter he missed the wine glass when pouring some wine out, cleaned up but no compensation for the lost wine, the atmosphere was ok, but very very noisy, I did find the portion size to be small, but food tasted good, all in all expensive and the cramped conditions need looking at, please pay attention waiters, spilling the wine lost you a star

What A Great Night, Never Ever Been There Before, ( Sad Too Say ) But I Will Return, Great Food,, Great Service, & Great Company,....... So Clean, Very Hygeneic, Staff 10/10 What A Great Saturday Night,,, Fantastic,,, Totally Recommend....... 100%................

The service is excellent and the food amazing. The Chicken Shashlik starter is to die for. This is a high quality Indian restaurant and well worth a visit.

If you care about your health and hygiene please avoid.I had diarrhea after having biryani here...Can not trust the meat and ingredients used for cooking are fresh or not...overpriced and over rated and staff is pathetic..

Just off the top of the parade to the left . Very tasty food. Friendly and attentive staff. Overall bill on the highish side for two (£60 inc tip. Three drinks and a bottle of water. pappadum and mains only).Definitely go back and try a few more dishes. The garlic chilli chicken is ideal if you like chillies.

Best Indian food I've had in Leamington Spa. Very good service and good recommendations from the staff. Will go back.

The whole experience of this restaurant is truly lovely. The food is although pricey, really great and the staff are lovely and not overwhelming. Beautifully decorated with a fab atmosphere.

This was my second visit and whilst the service and the food remained very good, the experience was ruined by the noise. I'd previously been on a Tuesday, this time it was a Thursday evening and full of screaming women and very loud mouthed oafs. A visiting alien would have guessed that this was in fact the appropriate conduct.... The staff were especially friendly with the loudest customers, patting them on the back as though encouraging them! But seriously, this is not a place to enjoy an intimate or romantic dinner. I won't be going back, despite loving the food. The level of noise was scandalous. I've visited and reviewed plenty of restaurants, but none as noisy as this.

Having ordered a curry without garlic I was disappointed in how bland it was despite asking for it to be spicy. When I raised this with the staff they told me that it was because it didn't have garlic which is nonsense. If they couldn't serve a spicy curry they should have told me hence my low rating

This was a truly wonderful eating experience. Every mouthful we ate was delicious and I can't wait to go back. I would however warn others to take more notice of the bill than I did. They had already added 10% service charge on the bill but didn't tell me this when I left £20 tip! Not very honest I think.

The food was the best Indian we have had since moving to Leamington Spa. The service was great, not too rushed as in a lot of restaurants. Would highly recommend.

Its a nice Indian restaurent. Parking is very near. Food is amazing. I visited with my family. I have visited other Indian restaurent in Leamington but I find the taste is better here. Helpings are good. I will suggest to have Chicken Shashlik, Rogan Josh Paneer, daal Makhani and Onion Kulcha.

Lucky to get 2 seats without booking on a busy Friday night. Ordered chefs specials for the night and enjoyed both although the Salmon starter could have been a tad more generous. Overall, not cheap but good quality with great naan breads. Popadoms also very good. Too full for dessert!

Recently visited the Resteraunt -having eaten in most resteraunts up and down the country- have to say was pleasantly surprised - Despite it being a busy Saturday evening, the standard of service and quality of food was excellent - finished the evening with scrumptious deserts - will definitely be going back and will recommend it to friends !

Por fuera este restaurante no llama mucha la atención, pero una vez dentro se nota que no es el típico restaurante indio de pueblo inglés. La decoración es agradable, moderno y cómoda. El servicio amable y correcto.Toda la comida que elegimos estaba muy rica. Además de los típicos platos (tandoori, tikka masala, etc) tienen otros menos habituales (como avestruz marinado). Las raciones eran bastante abundantes y aunque el precio era algo caro (unos 37€ por persona) creo que la calidad lo justifica.

What a disappointment.. A really well-done up venue but they massively drop the ball on their food and prices. At nearly a pound for each Poppadom, it was madness; let alone their mains. Trust me, you'd have better food ordering from your local curry place and getting a take away. I've had better take away curries from countless places. For 5 people the total was £138 and this was after a compulsory gratuity charge of 10%. Absolute rip off. I would not recommend this place.

Menu look exciting, but food did not live up to the billing, my dish was served 5 minutes before the rest of the table so was cold by the time the rest of the food arrived the curry sauce was weak and watery. No taka dal on the menu but the best popadoms I have eaten, This place could be so much better with a little more care

The menu was fantastic just wanted to try a bit of everything and the meal I picked did not disappoint.

I have been to this place many times and keep going back. Food is just amazing and service is excellent with friendly and warm staff.Dishes are very finely cooked with very balanced spices.
