Monsoon in North Somerset

If I could give it six, I would. Superb food; I had chicken tikka biryani and it was a delight. Full of flavour and the rice was perfectly cooked. My wife had king prawn korma and loved it. We shared sag aloo and loved it. The staff were friendly and helpful. All in all, a delightful experience.

Lovely clean restaurant with a good variety of dishes. Service was good and staff were very polite. Food was fresh and tasty.

We regularly visit this family friendly restaurant, we always receive excellent welcome, service & the food is outstanding. There is a great selection on their menu & every choice is cooked using good meat & spices. This Indian restaurant is a cut above all the others. The restaurant is respectful of Covid requirements.

Excellent Thursday curry deal meal first class, mix starter onion bharji best ever, choice of mains side and rice/nan glass of wine £12.95 brilliant for this quality

A nice varied menu with some dishes new to me among the familiar favourites. I had a nicely paced meal served well and full full compliance to all the rules. Very enjoyable. Talked a bit of cricket with the owner.

Eat here for my sons 16th birthday, we eat a lot of Indian food and this got to be one of the worse. The kids korma was a tin of coconut milk with chicken in the tarka Dall had burnt slivers of garlic on top in a pool of gee, the nan bread wasn't cooked still doey. Every was done for a short cut, the server almost fed us our meal to get us out of there (we were 3 of 5 people in there) not good really disappointed.

Consistently good food and service by a customer focused team. Take away and the restaurant service is always of a high standard with traditional service and good surroundings.

Just had a takeaway from Monsoon, one of the best curries we have ever had. Food is delicious and very speedy and friendly service. Definitely the best Saag Paneer I’ve ever eaten. Chicken was cooked to perfection. Would highly recommend!!

We just had the most fantastic takeaway from Monsoon. As ever the order was processed quickly and the food ready in less than half an hour. The set up for payment and then handing over the food is totally compliant with current guidelines. Food was well prepared, flavoursome and totally delicious. It’s obviously important to support local business at the moment. And Monsoons food really is fantastic. I can’t wait until we can go there again for proper restaurant meal. Thank you

Ordered for 4 meals with starters mains and side dishes. At least small 4 items were missing. No point in going back as we had already laid the table. With one vegan in the family thiers was reportedly quite good,

Visited this restaurant for the first time before going to the Clevedon Curzon CInema next door. Ideal spot for a romantic dinner before watching a film. The staff were absolutely brilliant, couldn’t do enough for us, the house white wine was excellent & kingfisher beer was on tap! Now the food..... this has to be the very best Indian food I have had in North Somerset & we have tried all of them. The freshly prepared meals were exquisite & the freshly prepared spices in their dishes were divine. The restaurant itself wasn’t dark but of a bright modern feel. We had excellent waiter service, very friendly staff & the Manager came over to check everything was to our liking. Thank you for making our evening so special. We will definitely return again & make this our regular ‘date night’ out.

We've ordered a couple meals in the last week for collection, taking advantage of the 20% off offer and both times (including new years eve) the food was ready as advised in 20 mins and was very tasty. We had a main, rice, side veg and bread for just over £12, which easily served both of us and home cooked just never the same. Recommended.

Stopped in here for a late night supper after a long days sea fishing with a friend. The staff were really friendly and helpful. And the service and food excellent. The manager even offered to cook our catch if we called by after future fishing trips. Will most definitely visit again.

My husband and I really enjoyed our meal. Everything was cooked perfectly and staff attentive & polite. Poppadoms were crisp & Nan bread freshly made. Dishes were delicious and certainly wouldn’t be afraid to try new ones there. Glad we ignored earlier reviews. Wished we lived closer as we certainly would make it our No.1 Indian Restaurant & takeaway.

Some friends and I went to Monsoon for Thursday's banquet night. You each get a starter, a main meal each, a side to share, a rice to share and a naan to share, and it's plenty of food to enjoy for £11.95, which also includes a glass of house red or white wine. We couldn't fault anything! The service was great, and the food was delicious! Looking forward to going back already.

We booked a table for 8 people. Our close family. As we were celebrating my son's 40th birthday, we'd specifically requested a large table at the back so that we could all sit together at the rear of the restaurant. We turned up on time to be told we'd have to split into 2 groups of 4 and sit in the cubicles at the front. The guy eventually admitted that he'd later taken a booking for a larger group and given them priority over us. We were so disappointed. Finally we gave up and got much better service - plus a welcome - at another restaurant. A very poor show Monsoon.

For my husbands 40th birthday he wanted to celebrate at Monsoon as we'd always ordered a take away for about 8 years and been happy! We'd never sat in the restaurant and eaten there before so as a treat we booked a table for 8 (family came all the way from Coventry) but when we arrived to decorate the table they'd given it away to a bigger party!! I don't know what I was more angry about, the fact the manager had tried to call me the day before TO CANCEL my booking, (as if that was an answer) or the fact he was rude to me & the party for being disappointed we were stuck with no where to go by trying to justify his intentions!!! He just didn't want our business, simple as that. He sheepishly offered us two tiny tables of 4 in seperate booths which wasn't an option as we'd not seen some members of the family for months and it's impossible to talk whilst sat crammed into these small booths with half the party in a different area of the restaurant. It Annoyed me even more that in my booking request I SPECIFICALLY asked for the (only) large table at the back of the restaurant to which they said 'no problem'! Else we'd never of booked this restaurant.Basically money talks for this establishment, & they don't care about customer happiness.After wondering around Clevedon with elderly parents and a very tired and grumpy 4 years old we were finally told we could eat at the RedRose curry house where they gladly shuffled tables around to accommodate us an hour later. They even offered my husband and his brothers complimentary sambucas as a birthday treat!! We were treated so unfairly at Monsoon, I hope by reading this they will start putting customers first instead of Thier pockets and maybe they'll receive better trip advisor comments- like at the Red rose!! Will never order a take away or book a table again with this place, absolute shameful service.I'm just glad my husbands birthday meal wasn't completely ruined ,all thanks to the Red Rose.

Went as a group of friends for the Thursday special. I cannot fault it. I love the food they serve here and I don't understand the review that says the food is bland. A good experience. Staff are pleasant without being over familiar. Good job chaps.

Disappointing meal. Staff could do with smiling for a start. Meal was bland. Didn't feel welcome. Couldn't wait to clear our table.

Came here on the off chance and we was not disappointed outstanding food service was great even got free Poppadoms and dips The taste was excellent its a shame we live in Reading Berkshire as this would 100% be my local Curry House 5☆☆☆☆☆

We came in here after watching a film at the Curzon - the place was empty so we thought it was closed, but the staff beckoned us in to sit down. No sooner had we sat down but they were trying to get us through and back out of the door! When we tried to strike up conversation with one of the staff, we were told that Clevedon is an "old person's town" and "nobody comes out in the evening for food". It's absolutely not an old person's town, and the other Indian restaurants are full, so I'm not sure how this person thinks that!!! Have avoided since.

Been here a few times and we always have a good meal. We were a party of five all with very different requirements and they looked after all of us very well. We chose quite a wide range of dishes and were happy with all of them.

Well cooked, spicy food served by helpful and attentive staff.

Four of us took advantage of the £11:95 Thursday night banquet, which consisted of a set mixed plate of starters (bhaji, pakora and samosa), followed by choice of mains. Accompanying side dish, choice of naan and rice completed the feast, along with a small glass of wine. Everyone was happy with their choices, the chicken shashlik generous and not too spicy, the paneer chicken masala mild, but tasty. Naans were a bit greasy, rice a bit dry, but the side dish of aloo gobi was great.

Brilliant service. Great tasty food. Catered for allergies to different foods. Attentive staff to a table of twelve. Wouldn’t hesitate to return for more..🤗

I regularly visit Monsoon with both family and friends. All consider it to be the best Indian restaurant in Clevedon. The Restaurant is well appointed and comfortable. The menu is very varied with a wide range of traditional dishes and specials with distinct tastes available. It's the consistently high standard of food that stands out, as I find other Indian restaurants in Clevedon are hit and miss on this aspect. Service is good and prices very reasonable for the quality of food. My only small criticism is that I find the 'heat' levels a little low for my liking, but this is a personal thing. Would recommend.

We staggered down in the snow last weekend, and came across this lovely restaurant. There is a larger Indian a few doors along but this more intimate setting and the menu appealed more and we appreciated the quieter seating. We both ordered unusual dishes from a special section of the main menu, my father had a delicious honey chicken dish with a beautiful rich and creamy sauce with very generous amounts of meat. I ordered and thoroughly enjoyed the butter chilli vegetables main, which had a lovely depth of flavour. The tarka dall was lovely and thick and full of flavour, which applied to all the dishes we tried. The Kingfisher topped it off nicely. A great find.

Eighteen of us had an excellent meal at Monsoon. The staff were attentive and all of us enjoyed the meal. Food was well prepared and staff were happy to help.

Went for my daughter's birthday, she loves Monsoon, had a great meal and great service as usual, loads of tasty food, we had no room for birthday cake. Good chicken dishes, Saag and Korma and good vegetable dishes. They can cope with special dietary needs, vegan and tomato allergy.

Very smart and comfortable restaurant.Seating is well spaced out.Nice crisp table linen.Tasteful decor.Welcoming staff.The food was well spiced and plentiful. The price reasonable. The starter beguni was lightly battered and spiced. The chicken dansak a bit sweet but very tasty and fairly hot.

Decided to give this restaurant another go as we hadn't been there for ages. They have a good selection of prawn dishes and don't overcook the prawns (which is often the case with Indian restaurants.) I had the prawn patia which was delicious. My husband had lamb vindaloo which was also good. Neither were what we would consider particularly hot though....they definitely cater for the British palate! What has put me off going back though is the fact that we paid the bill in cash and the waiter never returned with the change! Very rude I think! We would have left a tip anyway but it's not for the waiter to make that assumption, however we felt awkward asking for it so just left.

We thought a return visit would be in order as it was a while that we had been here. Our last visit was a good experience however this time it was in the door and when can you leave please..we felt very rushed so we wont rush back for sure.

Un restaurante está impecablemente limpio y bien presentado. Todas las bebidas usuales, pero es la comida debe venir aquí, ya que es muy especial. El menú es variado y la profundidad de sabores en los platos es una delicia. Vale la pena una segunda y tercera visita, etc..

Took the wife out for a curry thought the food was ok but nothing special both the lamb passanda and chicken bhuna was a bit rubbery and got the wrong naam bread over all a bit underwhelmed

Mis amigos y yo fuimos a cenar aquí en una noche tranquila el miércoles. La comida era precioso servicio no tanto. Todo iba bien (aunque nuestro camarero era bastante brusco) y fue una agradable noche hasta la cuenta vino.

Best curry house in town by far,great food and great service,we go there at least once or twice a month and we never had a bad experience, Thanks guys

Comimos aquí de vez en cuando con un amigo que es bien conocido por el personal. Nunca un problema. Pero anoche mi esposa y yo fuimos con dos amigos más que eran 'vírgenes' Restaurante indio. La noche del jueves es la noche pecials'. Buen precio y buena comida en £11. 95 por cabeza, pero este menú no fue ofrecido a nosotros hasta que nos pedía. Este fue montada muy rápidamente, demasiado rápidamente como el entrante no era lo que nos habían acostumbrado y que era muy inferior (en mi opinión). La factura final llegaron a £75 +. Cuando pregunté, había una disculpa muy rápido y un montón de dedo señalador. La factura final £47. 80 como se esperaba. Es bastante diferente.

Somos clientes habituales aquí. El personal es amable y atento y hay Kingfisher de barril!

Ate at Monsoon on a Friday evening with no reservation, but had no problem getting a table. Have eaten here before, but never before felt so compelled to write a review. The service was as attentive as usual in an Indian restaurant, but not intrusive or rushed. Kingfisher lager on tap.....always a point scorer! Papadums were beautifully light and crispy, with an excellent lime pickle, which is essential!All three of us inadvertently ordered lamb dishes from the house specialities. So much meat! We couldn't believe how fishing about in the delectable sauces kept on revealing more and more chunks of tender, tasty lamb.....VERY impressed. Amazing value for money that will see me return whenever I'm in town.

The food was OK but when you've got 2 kids in tow slow service can be a real problem and when Monsoon is busy the service is poor.If you're prepared to travel outside Clevedon there are better options for Indian food.

Awful standard - visited monsoon for my friends birthday - the standard of the main course was shocking - two of us had the same main dish and it was like they cooked one meal then added water and split the dish in two (tikka madras and it was tasteless)Chicken was chewy - side dishes were tasteless (again it appeared they cut corners) Service was way off service with a smile - it was like we were an inconvenience of being there Had food here before on a Friday and Saturday which had been much better but the standards certainly drop for a mid week meal - looking to cut corners and produce meals as cheap as possible Will not return here very poor standard

good food friendly staff nice lighting whether your going for a sit down or take away its nice food every time

Been here several times and never disappointed. Food is always hot, extremely tasty and fresh. The staff are very friendly

Having been here many times and enjoyed it immensely ,I have to say that last nights meal was disappointing to say the least .......it was hot ,but devoid of flavour,and the staff were very surly indeed,i don't wish them to be my friend,but it costs nothing to smile and be welcoming.Maybe they were having an off day and I must confess the weather was one of the few days when it was blistering hot,so whether that contributed to their lack of hospitality who knows?

Husband and I visited Monsoon Restaurant on our way to Cornwall. Had not visited the restaurant for 3 years yet the high standard of food was still maintained. We have eaten at many Indian restaurants but have to state that this one serves the best Indian food we have tasted.

Had a takeaway with my husband and mother in law about a week ago and it was awful. We each ordered starter, main courses, rice and naan bread. One main course, one rice and one starter was incorrect. The lamb in two of the main courses was really tough, there was very little meat and loads of sauce. One of the main courses was nice if it were a stew but made a pretty disappointing accompaniement to naan and rice even though it was described as 'hot' in relation to its level of spice. We regularly have takeaways from Monsoon and mostly they are ok but on this occasion it was really bad. On the whole I think the trend for takeaways is a downward spiral for this establishment.Much nicer if you eat in.

Booked at the last moment, so were lucky to get in. Nice decor and ambience, polite, pleasant and attentive staff. Nice selection of starters and mains, we enjoyed the Fish Pakora and Mixed Kebab to start, followed by a Chicken Til Bhuna and Chicken Sashlick. The Bhuna was labelled as a medium, so just ask if you want it a bit hotter. Both dishes were very tasty served with mushroom rice, sag aloo and Peshwari nan.

Good service. Meat in my lamb bhuna was tender. Rice was freshly cooked. Not sure on decor. But all found a good experience.

Popped into Monsoon on the off chance that they had a table. We had a lovely meal, the service was good. A nice comfortable restaurant to dine in.

We went to Monsoon last night as a last minute booking. We had a great meal and although it was very busy, the service and food were very good. Food was pipeing hot and very tasty. We were not rushed in any way but felt that the service was just right.Thank you for a very nice meal and a great eveing, we will be back.

Food is very nice but I think they should have more vegetarian starter options on the deal night on a Thursday, depends on the service staff on who serves you

It is without doubt the best Indian in the area. My husband purchased the same meal from each Indian in Clevedon.Monsoon was without doubt the best. No garish brightly coloured food and no m.s.g. You get what you pay for here, fresh and authentic.Friendly and attentive staff welcome you with a smile.

we ❤️ monsoon its such a great restaurant the meals are always yummy its one of our favourite places to eat, even the take-aways are brilliant too. The staff are so friendly especially the Boss he is so curteous nothing is too much trouble

we visited this place for my boyfriend birthday dinner. The restaurant was nice, calm, cleaned. Food was very nice, staff - two Indian guys was extremely helpful, they even gave us an advices about places to visit.Price was good for the tasty food. Service charge (£7.25) was included into the bill.

You will ALWAYS get a good meal here whether it is a take away or a sit down. Do not hesitate to go and for sure you will enjoy its tasty menu. I cannot recommend a particular dish as they are all superb

Myself and partner eat here usually once a week, we always collect and the quality is how an Indian should be! Tasty, good flavours and reasonable price. The only reason they don't get the 5th star is because recently the chicken quality doesn't seem as good as what it used to me. Sometimes tastes chewy / water injected. But compared to others this wins every time.

I visited here while on a weekend away in Clevedon on a Saturday evening with a friend. The food was good but the service was slow and unfriendly. They didn't make us feel welcome. Because the service was so bad I definitely would not go back.

As a regular buyer of Indian food I thought I would try this restaurant for the first time. To be cautious we only ordered a dhansak and some rice. I was greeted by being told that I was not entitled to the discount on the take away as the order was so small. I was then told that I could not pay by card and it would have to be cash. After returning from the cashpoint I collected my meal. I wish I had not bothered. To add to the poor customer service, the curry was disappointingly bland and the rice was very watery. I will not be going back and instead will return to the other restaurants in Clevedon.

I've had several takeaways from here and they have been consistently good and reasonably priced. My only complaint is that they don't open at lunchtime - nor do any of Clevedon's Indian takeaways!

Happened to visit here on a Thursday which is special offer evening. The food was very good and fantastic value at £26 for 2 with drinks.

The decor and staff were very good, the service was fine, the food was very nice.What made the whole thing outstanding was the special offer price.All in all a great evening meal

Four of us went here for a birthday meal. Food was great but the service was appalling. Wouldn't go back, there are too many other Indians in Clevedon which seem to appreciate customers rather than treat them as a necessary evil.

We recently visited one of our closest indian restaurants in clevedon. The food was pretty good, although the keema naan wasn't great. Food nice, the problem with this restaurant is the low level of service. I'm not convinced that we simply "caught the staff on a bad night", as we have been there a few times and have left there feeling disappointed. Getting the food right is a great start, but the attitude of Some of the staff was not good and needs to be worked on. Good food poor service

Friday at 7pm before a trip to the Curzon. The curries were very good - Chicken Dansak and Chicken Patia, juicy pieces of chicken in lively sauces. Aloo-gobi also excellent. Some of the food carried a tad too much oil/gee for me, although the Patia was perfect. The accompanying Nan bread was light, tasty and fluffy. Superb Nan actually. Service was attentive and friendly. Though it's a modern interior, it was clean and the quality of the food shone through. We would definitely go again and it's really handy as a pre-cinema treat.

I was a bit disappointed with my chicken dansak, the sauce was A bit on the sweet side and the chicken was that nasty processed water injected sloppy stuff.

We ate here early on a Friday evening in November. It was quiet when we arrived - there was one customer waiting for a takeaway and one other couple sat down just after us. We were quickly given the menus and our drinks order was taken. Having decided what we wanted to eat it was a good five minutes before the waiter took our food order - given that they weren't serving anyone else at all during that time I felt this was poor. Both members of staff at front of house spent the intervening five minutes chatting to the man waiting for the take away and both avoided making eye contact with us. Once our order was taken everything else (including service) was fine. The food was good quality (although could have been more highly spiced) and the portion size generous. The bill for two main courses, two sides, rice, naan, popadoms and a few beers was £35 so I felt this was good value. Won't be rushing back as there are other Indian restaurants in Clevedon but it was a decent meal.

The best Indian cuisine in Clevedon. We have eaten here on number of occasions and also enjoyed takeaways. There is a good variety of hot to mild meat, fish and vegetarian.dishes. The service is good as the staff are efficient and friendly. There is a good selection of Asian beers if you like to try something different on the menu, The restaurant has a lovely ambience and if your eyes are bigger than your belly and you order to much you can take the rest away. Result.

Not my first time to this restaurant but it will be my last! The food is nice, although not the best Indian food in Clevedon, but the service on monday evening was poor considering the restaurant wasn't busy and we waited well over half an hour before our food arrived. However, when we paid our bill...£70 cash for a £62 bill, the waiter never returned with our change!! We had just been discussing whether to leave the customary 10% tip or leave the change from the £70 but the point is, this should be up to the discretion of the customer! Had I not had company then I would have asked for my change (and then left whatever tip I decided on) but our evening would have been spoiled if I had made a fuss. I felt totally ripped off and I will never go back.

The first thing you appreciate on entering the restaurant is the lovely greeting you get from the manager.The lighting and decor is not typical of other Indian restaurants. It is predominately blue and the seating is in cubicles as opposed to open tables. It is a bit like a railway carriage but does not take the charm away. If anything it gives you the sense of privacy.The music may not be to everybodys taste and at times could be said to be strident. It is not intrusive but would be better if it was a bit softer.And now we get to the important bit , which is the food. The menu is extensive and one is spoilt for choice. Unusually there are a lot of sweet and sour options which are delicious.The staff are attentive and very good at giving advice.Tables are covered in crisp white tablecloths and everything about the place exudes cleanliness.The toilets are light , airy and very clean.Great place for a curry.Almost dead opposite the Curzon cinema and would recommend it for a pre film meal.Change the music and would give it 5 stars.

Visited for the first time in many years. The menu was very good as was the quality of the food. Good service and value for money. One of the better Indian restaurants locally.

Called to book a table last minute, and staff were quick and helpful to accommodate us. We got our table and showed up a couple of hours later. There was a good selection of beers, and the food was delicious. Very reasonable prices, too. Fast and efficient service, a very pleasant experience. Decoration is simple and clean, I would not say romantic, but the atmosphere is calm. The tables are small, so you 'd rather go with people you know well and don't mind sitting really close! Will definitely visit again.

Food tasty, well spiced. My husband asked for his curry to be spiced up more than normal, the result was to his liking. Portions were good and service friendly. Would go back.

Really nice meal, shaslick tasty and not too much colouring. Meat Ceylon very good with a punchy sauce. Good service, tables a little cramped. Good value local Indian.

As a seasoned diner, I found the experience lacking in all departments. The prices were over inflated for the mediocre quality of food and choices of both food and wet limited. Not somewhere I could wholeheartedly recommend.

Just celebrated my wife's birthday at Monsoon. A Monday night so very quiet and therefore atmosphere was always going to be lacking. This didn't detract from the quality of the service and the food, which was excellent. Monsoon deserves to be recognised as the best Indian restaurant in North Somerset.

My fiancé & I are Clevedon locals and although we have had a takeaway from Monsoon, had not yet eaten in the restaurant. Friendly staff, good portions & very tasty chicken & lamb. They do a special deal on a Thursday evening so will definitely be returning before too long!! :-)

We visited with friends who assured us the food at Monsoon was great. The weren't lying. My wife and I have eaten Indian food around the USA and New Zealand and there were dishes that we never heard of before coming to Monsoon. They were extremely well prepared and spot on with the level of heat. Too bad we live in the USA. Ernie

Always tasty food we usually use the take away facility, but occasionally eat in.We had a meal on a Saturday night the food was excellent but the waiter was very curt bordering on rude.

This is the only place we go to for our curry. Never disappointed - always a really good meal and plenty of it. We use the take-away service, the food is always ready to pick up at the time requested and the staff are very efficient and above all the curry is delicious.

Freshly made hot buttery naan breads, good curries, sometimes a little salty but on the whole a clean reliable consistent takeaway. I wouldn't want to eat in the restaurant as the bright blue lighting makes your eyes hurt.

I can't fault it. The food is great! Good service. It's not cheap food but its worth it for a nice meal out.

My girlfriend and I have eaten here on many occasions and really like it. Having tried the others in town this is definitely our preferred one. The owner is very polite and attentive and the food, as well as being prepared using good fresh ingredients is nicely presented. The staff are always polite too. Lots of comments on the lighting, but I like it, along with the less traditional music. We'll be back.

The worst curry evening we have ever experienced. The waiter and even manager was very rude. The food was just over cooked dry chicken with flavoured sauce over it,there are other local Indian restaurants that are far better,avoid this one at all costs!!!!

Food is good with a decent selection of dishes rather than the same old stuff. Don't worry the old favourites are here as well.The main contact who I think might be the owner is very helpful and friendly.

Hubby and I go at least a couple of times a month,either a takeaway or sit down.the staff know us nkw and have a chat or a laugh.we go back for the food,its really good and natural,I mean not vivid synthetic colours.the food quality is consistantly good.we have never had a bad meal.prices are reasonable.it usually works out at fifteen pounds a head with a drink.takeaway for two,eighteen pounds.the lighting is my only gripe .I think the lighting should be warmer.but a good place to have curry

We have been to Monsoon several times after moving to Clevedon 3 years ago. In our opinion it is the best indian restaurant in the town, with consistently good food and helpful friendly service every time we visit. The food is also good quality and generous portions if you order it to take away which is something which we have found to be a bit of a let down at other restaurants we have tried.We have tried loads of dishes and cannot fault any of them, I particularly recommend trying the tandorri chicken tikka which is lovely!I agree with others who have mentioned the lighting, it is a bit strange to see in a restaurant but it is okay and should not put you off going. The booths are also a bit of a tight squeeze if there are 4 normal sized adults, but the staff are always helpful and will seat you elsewhere if possible. We have taken lots of family and friends here when they come to visit, and all have said how nice the food is, I would definitely recommend trying Monsoon.

As a family we rate this restaurant as the best curry house here. It's not cheap but the food is great & the service is good & friendly.

Had a super meal here on Wednesday, ate too much! Food was lovely and staff very attentive. Only minus? Seating a little bit 'tight', sat in booth type seating and I found it hard to get in and out, I'm not large, and would worry that a 'larger' person might stuggle! Apart from that, well worth a visit and good value for money.

I have been going here for years and it is still the best. It is a bit more expensive than the others but you get what you pay for. Good authentic food here with identifiabke fresh ingredients compared to 'mush' in the others! Also very very friendly and welcoming.

We had a ladies night party at Moonson and it was really a fantastic night. We had a tour in Clevedon with friends. I am certainly going back there again as the service was very high standard and the food one of the tastiest food I have ever had in any Indian cuisine and definitely value for money. The restaurant's atmosphere, layout and lighting was really good.

A very busy Saturday night but not forgotten kept well informed of delays due to so busy. Food ? Very Well Worth waiting for, tastes of all dishes we had excellent

Eaten here a few times now plus a couple of take aways and we have never had a poor dish. One veggie, one (very fussy) meat eater and so lots of different dishes eaten and nothing wrong with any of them. We took some of our in-laws, one of whom is gluten free, and both eat in Indian restaurants all the time and they were both really impressed. They live in Clevedon (we don't) and had never eaten there before but have been back since. We also had a four year old with us and the staff could not have been more helpful in helping him to choose something that was suitable. Where we live there are no decent Indian places to eat so a bit jealous of this place to be honest.

The food is tasty, and the menu varied. The lighting however is out of an 80's disco - pastel colours flare on and off, which although initially looking pretty soon becomes annoying.Can be a bit pricey, espcially the drinks.

We have now visited Monsoon three times. As well as the standard fayre e.g. bhuna, rogon josh etc, they have a good selection of chef's specials and signature dishes which provide a varied and welcome change from the bog standard stuff. As a vegetarian, I was pleased not only y the good selection of specifically vegetarian dishes but also by the quality. Too often, you get the impression that veggie dishes are basically left over potatoes, peas and carrots in whatever sauce is applicable. But the vegetarian options here are packed with a good selection of nicely cooked vegetables and actually seem like they have been made specifically rather than as an after-thought. Service is good and friendly, increasingly so every time we have visited and the price is about average - £35 or so for two courses each and two rounds of drinks plus a side dish. As other contributors have noted, the coloured lighting is quirky and unusual (sometimes it feels like eating a curry in a disco!) but it's not too bright or distracting. Highly recommended for a good quality, good value curry.

I've been a few times with local friends who love this place. I've been spoilt by The Curry Garden in Weston but this place is more local and is very nice. The food is good, well priced and the staff are very attentive but the blue neon style lighting is awful and gives the place a terrible atmosphere, I prefer a traditional environment. Also, the curry's are not spicy enough for me, I had the lamb bhuna and the the gravy is a bit like stew a mild stew. Like I said though, the decors not to my taste but I know plenty of people who like it so don't let that put you off. Worth a visit.

Lighting more suited to a cocktail bar than a restaurant and the atmosphere was somewhat lacking as we were the only people there at the time! The food was nice although what tthe menu described as a 'medium' curry was VERY mild so I had to ask for extra chillies to spice it up.

Food is excellent and well priced, service is also very good providing its not to busy. The only thing that let's it down is the poor blue lighting which is so dim you can't read the menu

The flavours of the food are distinctive, no rush and pleasant service.

Spicey stew, no real indian feel or tast to the meal

Great food, friendly staff, will be back soon! (if you read this and are thinking of going to the Red Rose then this is the place to go)
