Have come here a lot over the years. It used to be spectacular but now I'd describe it as variable. Everything is just so unpredictable. Sometimes the service is good, sometimes it is awful. Like why am I paying a service charge but also redistributing drinks across the table and passing plates around. Also 3 of our party ordered the same kind of naan and instead of coming in 3 seperate baskets, they all came piled up in one basket which was offered to each person to finger their serving of naan onto their own plates. Sometimes the food is exceptional and worth the higher than average price tag, sometimes the food is literally tasteless. And I'm one to always order the same thing so it's not varying flavours from dish to dish. My last roti was just straight up burnt. Sometimes the atmosphere is classy and intimate, sometimes there's a huge corporate crowd of 150 people doing some stand up business networking and you can't hear yourself think. Of late, it's been skewing more Bad than Good when it comes to variables. Simply not worth the money.

Después de un día de compras decidimos darle una oportunidad a este restaurante y que delicia que era. Los poppadoms y los dips fueron maravillosos y el jalfrezi fue el mejor que he probado! El personal estaba en el balón , muy amable y atento . Gran ambiente para una cena temprano el sábado por la noche. ¿Volvería? Absolutamente. Espera pagar alrededor de £ 40 / 50 por cabeza con vino, pero bien vale la pena

Cuando dejo un restaurante, quiero sentirme positivo; gran ambiente, servicio, comida, valor. 3 días después y no puedo evitar la sensación de estar un poco estafado en la noche de San Valentín. No hay mención de un menú especial cuando se reserva. No hay oferta de menú normal a la llegada. Así que 50 libras por cabeza para un menú "especial". ¿Qué obtuvimos, champán a la llegada con increíbles canapés? ¡No! 50 libras cada uno recuerde. - 1 popadom cada uno con dips - 1 entrante cada uno, algunos llevan £ 3 de exceso - 1 principal - arroz o naan - un lado para compartir -pudín Junta eso en el menú normal y ni siquiera está cerca de £ 50 por cabeza. Sí, fue la noche de San Valentín, pero la forma en que se agitaron a través de los clientes, esta fue solo una gran noche de dinero para ellos Ahora la comida estaba bien no me malinterpreten pero el desierto era como una tortitas de suero de mantequilla cubiertas de mermelada y natillas, en forma de corazón para una medida especial pero luchando para ver cómo esto contribuye a un menú “especial” de 50 libras por cabeza. Bueno. 2 bebidas cada uno y cargo de servicio y estoy en por más de £ 150. Estaban dando vuelta mesas más rápido que Macdonalds, la pareja a nuestro lado entraba y salía en unos 45 minutos, logramos encadenarlo un poco más. ¿Tenía buena comida? -Sí. ¿Gran servicio? -Sí. ¿Buen ambiente? Sí (saxofón en vivo). ¿Relación calidad-precio? Tristemente no. ¿Volveré? No, no aceptaré ese tipo de experiencia del cliente.

What's the point. No one cares anymore. Waited 1hr 20mins for delivery on a Monday night for a birthday treat. We've ordered with Memsaab for 10 years. Telephoned after 1 hr to ask where delivery was, put on hold, laughter in the background, told 5 minutes away.. When delivery driver called they were 2 minutes away from our house, trying to deliver but not finding our house. Unsurprising given they weren't in the right place. They hadn't bothered to find our house or read the delivery instructions. Stayed with their car and just called for us to come and collect it. Clearly didn't get the memo that they're the delivery company and have been paid to deliver. We ordered direct with Memsaab website because Just Eat are useless, so when this idiot from Just Eat is 'delivering' our food late, luke warm and to the wrong area, you do wonder why you're paying £6 delivery on a £60 take out. Wouldn't have ordered if it was stated delivery will be one of the useless food delivery rip offs. Nowhere near worth it. Delivery isnt worth it at any price - even free delivery would be taking the pss. At this price and with this service, it's just not worth it whatsoever. Will not be ordering again.

We were really looking forward to experiencing an award winning restaurant, and were happy to pay the extra for (what we thought) was going to be a 'special' night out. The entrance area looked rather plush, but we were escorted to the back of the building where it felt like a service station, rather than a 5 star restaurant! We ordered our food (from the rather limited menu) and what arrived, I can only describe as well below par. The chips were cold (we had kids), the portion size was disappointing, the butter chicken was far, far too spicy (isn't this supposed to be a mild dish)? And the soft drinks were all flat. We paid just under £200 for 6 people and came away completely deflated. It was a Birthday treat, but this was just a disappointment. Completely over-priced for a well below average Indian.

I was annoyingly let down in the last minute by another restaurant that I had pre-booked in the area. I needed to rebook elsewhere at short notice and stumbled across MemSaab on OpenTable. Thankfully they had a table for 3 and I booked it without having any expectations not having been there before. The restaurant is clean, spacious and the staff very friendly. We were greeted by super friendly staff. The food we ordered was excellent and we had a great evening overall. I will definitely come back.

When arriving we were quickly shown to our table. The girl who took our order wasn’t a very warming person but a little on the abrupt side. The dish I wanted was chicken thigh meat and I asked if this could be changed to chicken breast. I always have chicken Khari with chicken beast meat in many restaurants. When asking if this could be changed to breast she said she would check with the chef as it wasn’t on the menu, this was ok but it was her attitude, made us feel like we were putting her out. Disappointed with the size of the nan bread considering the price. Rather than the normal size nan (dinner plate) it was the size of a saucer. It was cold. I addressed the waiter and he didn’t seem bothered when I mentioned the size but did bring an extra nan bread. When paying top end prices you expect quality and quantity. We eat at numerous Indian restaurants and have never had a nan bread so small. Unfortunately the lady in the red dress and the gent that visit the tables never came to ours which leads me to believe it’s all a set up. Seems strange two unhappy customers were never confronted by these two very important looking people but just seem to address the happier customers as they know they will have more positive feedback back. Disappointed wouldn’t recommend but it’s personal choice. Go and check out for yourselves.

Opulent interior and superb service for me, were the best features of this restaurant. The food for us, as a party of 5, was hit and miss. My lamb dish was superb - plentiful and succulent chunks of meat in a tasty sauce. However, two of our party opted for the chicken tikka masala, which both remarked on its bland flavour and tough chicken. I had to ask for my pint of Kingfisher to be topped up to give a full pint measure, which is a little annoying. My pet hate is, this is yet another restaurant that includes service charge in the bill. Usually, I have no qualms telling them to remove it, but in this restaurant, as the service was excellent, we paid it. Because of the poor meals we had, we probably wouldn’t return.

Disappointing food. Eaten there before and was delighted. Goan fish curry was bland, butter chicken was ok but not great, veggie curry comprised some fresh veg but also a lot of potatoes and some frozen peas. Even naan did not seem that fresh. Did not complain on the night as just wanted to eat and get home. So staff did not, in all fairness, have chance to remedy the situation. No hot towels at the end of the evening - poor given we eat the breads with our fingers. It is not cheap to eat here and I expected much better.

Tricky one to review. Place - lovely Service - great Food - as we were part of a larger group I got to try several dishes. I felt all of the dishes focused on heat (from chilli powder) rather than authentic dishes I have tasted recently. My butter chicken, predominantly was just heat I struggled to enjoy the flavour. A friends lamb curry again was too hot, couldn’t taste the curry and the lamb wasn’t rendered enough so all I got was a mouth full of chewy meat and I love lamb so was disappointed. I also think the starters were very small for the price and again too much heat ruining the flavours. Price - we did have a few drinks and this worked out to be £142 per couple. Did I feel this was value for money - no I’m afraid not. Would I return - unfortunately not, for me curry’s now should be about authentic tasty food, not over powering heat and for this price point I think the food is letting this establishment down. Another couple of points - a few sound deadening panels wouldn’t go a miss, at several points in the evening I was struggling to hear the person next to me. We were also saddened as a group that a solider with 25 years served for his country wasn’t offered any discount (after we made management aware)

This is right opposite the Park Plaza in Nottingham where we were staying and wow so glad. we went for dinner there ! It’s a step up from other Indian Restaurants with a brilliant attention to detail ! Doesn’t have a huge menu because everything is fresh, serving the option of dish of the day, which is a speciality dish which for us was a chicken and spinach dish and absolutely amazing. Poppadoms and pickles were amazing as was the Peshawar Nan. I would also recommend a sweet - lots of options which is unusual for an Indian Restaurant - I especially enjoyed the Baileys Cheesecake😂 Staff were attentive and professional. A definite recommendation !

We got there just before 10pm and were seated. When the member of staff came to take our order he told us to hurry up because the kitchen closes in 5 mins. Ok so we ordered 3 meals and 3 drinks. The food came within minutes (quicker than McDonalds !) We ate. Then the bill came £106. 1 starter, 3 mains, 3 naan breads, 1 rice, 3 pints. We hadnt asked for the bill. No offer of desert or coffee. Just eat up. Pay and go home. I did point this out but no-one gave a crap. Upshot is. If you want a good curry, go to CUMIN down the road. The food is way better and they are way more friendly.

Went here for a meal with work colleagues and reserved a table for 7 in advance. We were met by the concierge and seated straight away. Meal was sharing platters for starters (meat, fish and veggie platters). Also a tandoori ostrich which was unusual. Mains were a selection of the plates. Highly recommend Chicken Karahi (desi style) and the Nizami lamb. We also had delicious Desserts, I recommend the Pistachio Kulfi and the Rasmalai. Total bill was £400 (£59pp) which included several rounds of drinks. Had a 10% service charge added to the bill, but the serving staff were polite, efficient and helpful.

However, the food can only be described as standard at best - my chicken tikka could only be compared to Heinz tomato soup with a very small portion of chicken added which was a huge disappointment considering the price. In addition the price of one large glass of wine at £11 was high. Sadly will not be making a return visit and have experienced a far better standard of curry in other Nottingham restaurants

Staff were very friendly & attentive. I ordered the vegetable biryani which came covered with a sort of wheat pancake- a first for me! It was a nice dish but I’ve better biryanis.

Booked for a group of 15, paid £150 deposit for it. 2 couldn't make it on the day so 13 arrived on the nice. We spent £500 (including 10% service charge) at the restaurant. Unfortunately despite the big spend, and the restaurant not full on a weekday night, they decided to charge us £20 for the 2 no-show. Ruined our evening.

What a brilliant Indian restaurant. You will not be disappointed. We had a shared starter and lamb chops to start, amazing. Lam chops were really tender and full of flavour. We each had a different curry for mains, my dish of the day was amazing, lamb Balti and chicken chilli were also fantastic. Well done Memsab.

This has to be one of the best places to have actually good authentic Indian food in the UK. Every small bit from the starters to the final morsel was flavourful and sensory. Recommending at least one visit for everyone reading this review.

28.05.2024 We were eyeing this restaurant from a long time and finally we made it. The best service I have ever experienced to add to the tasty food and lovely ambience. The place is huge and can accommodate more that 200 people. The interiors are beautiful. The lighting is very nice and the table setting is awesome. no wornder the restaurant has wom many awards. We ordered for Lahori Lamb Chops, Tandoori Ostrich, JChilli Prawn Salad, French Fries and not to forget cocktails and Beers. Every order was quick and tasty. I am amazed by their super quick service as if they are reading our minds. To our surprise they also served a cake to celebrate our birthday. With super quick and excellent service a great place to dine, has left us with a very memorable experience.

Having been to MemSaab a few times I expected the food, drink, service and surroundings to be excellent and that's exactly what they were. We were I think the last people to leave the restaurant yet there was no sign of impatience from the wonderful staff. Will definitely go again but try to let the staff go home sooner in future!!

This was a lovely atmosphere on Valentine’s Day, however we were extremely disappointed with the service we received from one waitress in particular. The manger and our other waiter were lovely, however the evening was spoilt by one waitress. She threw down our cutlery and did not say two words to us whilst serving. We constantly received dirty looks from her, and it was a very hostile environment. We were wondering if it was homophobic reaction. We were definitely looking to come again, but we would be interesting in seeing how the restaurant would resolve this problem.

Team Memsaab truly made my mum's 60th birthday celebration an unforgettable experience! It was a private event and the venue ambience perfectly complemented the Bollywood-Diva theme, setting the stage for an enchanting evening. The buffet at Memsaab was a gastronomic delight, offering a lavish spread of flavorful dishes that catered to every taste bud. The curated all-vegetarian menu ensured that every guest found something to relish. And amidst the abundance of options, the dessert (Gajar Halwa) stood out as a sweet finale that left everyone craving for more. Their chai is one of the best in town and I will be coming back for more (and more). What truly set Memsaab apart was the impeccable service provided by the staff, especially Mr. Sudheer, whose dedication and assistance in planning the surprise (over a period of 2 weeks) and executing the event ensured its grand success. Thank you, Memsaab, for making my mum's special day truly magical! Wishing you the best!

Food is tasty, but waaay overpriced. Felt like we weren't welcome because everything came out so fast. They wanted us gone, at least that's what it felt like. Last time we'll be going there, better priced places that are nicer in Nottingham.

Optó por probar este restaurante como alojarse cerca. La comida y el servicio eran fantásticos a pesar de lo ocupado que estaba, no podía faltar nada. Puede recomendar encarecidamente el plato de compartir Tawa. Un montón de comida, bien cocinada y sabrosa, así como a un precio razonable.

A group of us went yesterday evening. It was my first visit. In terms of positives – very attractive decor in the restaurant and a general nice vibe and feeling to being there. The food was enjoyed by all of us to varying degrees. Portions were generous also. Though, for me, I would prefer to eat Indian type dishes in a more traditional environment and way of presentation. The flavours were good enough, but they just lacked the intense and varied ones I have enjoyed in other restaurants offering this style of food in Nottingham over the years. I don’t know if the kitchen staff at Mowgli Street Food Nottingham preparing the food are of Asian heritage, but front of house, I didn’t see any, and decor wise (however pleasantly done) there was no connection for me that I was in a place that sets out to serve south Asian type cuisine. Call me old-fashioned, but a visual style relevant to the geographical origins of the food is what I prefer. The real disappointment, initially at least, was the very poor service we received after being seated. Greetings were fine but then we were left basically to our own devices for a considerable amount of time (possibly 15 to 20 minutes). Nobody came over to offer us a drink or to check if we were ready to order. It was left to a member of our party to go and find a member of staff to take our order. I find that incredibly disappointing in a place that appears at least to be offering attentive service, but in our case wasn’t. A further positive for the restaurant was the price of the meal which I thought was very reasonable when you take into account two bottles of wine were included in a total of around £160 for four people. On leaving, I didn’t notice any staff thanking us, or saying goodbye, and we walked past several, both where we had been seated upstairs, and then on our way out of the restaurant downstairs. Another negative touch that probably gives some connection to the very long wait we had to be served finally. It is both a nice and expected touch to have somebody front of house working to connect with you on leaving, and thank you for your time and your custom. And that didn’t happen here in my hearing at least. Would I recommend Mowgli Street Food Nottingham to others? Depending on what you are looking for, yes, on balance? But I wouldn’t do so to people of a similar mindset to myself, who are expecting the kind of intense flavours of cooking that you are used to encountering in a good south Asian restaurant. The food was just too generic for my liking, and I doubt I would return – particularly bearing in mind the disappointing level of service we also encountered there.
