I normally love this place but on this visit there was a distinctly unfriendly feel. It was also cold and needs a clean, there were no drinks at all other than tapwater, the samosas were nice but the amount of fat in the okra dish was appalling...the vegetables were in a lake of unpleasant tasting oil....it was the worst curry I have ever had. I had the lamb dish which was tasty but still unnecessarily oily. I left feeling quite unwell and didn't eat again until the next day. I can't see myself going back sadly.

Went into the shop and I'd looked at all the prices online. Was told that it was more as the prices went up. They just added extra money onto my price as when I've now looked on just eat it was a lot cheaper. Not happy at all.

I ordered biryani for takeaway, it was like a chicken fried rice. Not a biryani, and the quantity was worst. Literally, not worthy for the price. I'm an Hyderabadi Indian. I make biryani by myself. They just sorted chicken curry into basmati rice and poured green chillies for extra spice 🤷‍♂️ Price was the same a the other hotels. Not recommended at all. The service lady calls/ addresses with the finger. Not by expressing Sir or any other respectful manner 🤷‍♂️ Felt so bad and the worst biryani experience ever 😏

Dont be put off by the basic cafe vibe. The chef really knows how to cook! Unbelievably good food - the samosas (chicken or lamb) are just delicious with light pastry and subtly spiced filling. We have also had the channa dal, the lamb and chicken dishes and the sag aloo - all superb. The lamb is obviously cooked very slowly and is so tender and soft in a rich thick gravy that is enhanced by the fact the meat has been cooked on the bone so the marrow melts into it. The spicing is completely integrated. For us there is a kind of home cooked authentic feel to the cooking here that we love as everything is slightly different each time we go. We are going to try all the specials next!

Horrible experience. Cheeky young gegsy nerd at the front called Hamza USA very rude, horrible and argumentative person. There was an issue with the food, I went to speak to him about it and he continually argued with me despite the food clearly being burned charcoal black. He stood there defending bad quality food.

The service was awesome. The meal was served quickly. The other restaurant goers were also friendly and the atmosphere was genuine and family orientated. After explaining we were vegan we were given different options. We were offered vegan curries.The food was as good as you get in other more upmarket Indian/Bangladeshi restaurants. The roti was fresh and served hot it tasted really fresh. The rice was well cooked and fragrant. The service was quite balanced and the meal reasonably priced. If you are looking for a clean no frills cafe to eat good wholesome Bangladeshi food then Mithai Mahal is perfect for your needs.

Called into Mithai Mahal after a spot of shopping at the Asian supermarket and we weren't disappointed. The choice isn't massive (approx 15 dishes) but all were authentic Asian cuisine which you would probably expect as a guest in someone's home. Each dish was authentic, flavoursome, not swimming in ghee etc. It would be nice if there were a mixed salad & poppadoms added to the buffet but regardless we will be back. Staff were lovely, friendly and helpful, price was a mere £6.99! I would have given Methai Mehal top marks but some of the table tops needed a wipe! Give it a try 😊

Ordered a takeaway meal consisting of chicken masala, meat jalfrezi,chapati, chilli pickle and chips....not a big order, not complicated. Delivery time was meant to be an hour, it took 2 hours, it was an early evening order. The food: old stale meat in jalfrezi, chapatti and chips like card board, probably microwaved, chilli pickles consisted of some chillies with vinegar on them, masala was a sauce with dry old chicken dropped in it. Awful, Awful, Terrible. Quite possibly the worst takeaway I have ever had, please do not go here!!!!!!

This eat in or takeaway is located in a residential area someway off the Main Street. We found it by chance when going to a nearby store. The seating area was adequate and the staff friendly but didn't seem well organised. It took about 35 minutes from placing our order (takeaway) to receiving it. The naan breads were very nice and tasty but a little too thick. The lamb jalfrezi was lots of meat which is no bad thing but hardly any sauce so the rice was dry. The chicken tikka madras was very oily but plenty sauce. The chicken was a bit chewy in places not sure on cut or quality. The rice was ok but again oily and very bland. Overall it was ok but nothing special.
