Mowgli's in Cardiff

Decided on an actual sit down meal here at GI Mowglis after several takeaways from here in the past. A friend & I enjoyed what can only be described as an amazing quality meal with great service. My GI Special Balti was flawless, full of flavour and an amazing portion! Nans the size of serving plates, haven’t seen larger in my years of Indian meals in S Wales. Already planning my next visit next month!

Great food but loud is also amazing for going with family and friends because there is loss of seats ther

I placed an order tonight at around 7.15pm. Delivery was estimated to arrive at 7.55pm. I rang Mowglies at 8.15pm to enquire about my delivery as it said the delivery was on route over 20 minutes previous. I was told that the driver would be no longer than 5-7 minutes. Time had passed, I called them back at 8:32pm to check where the driver was and they reassured me again that he wouldn't be long. Driver made NO attempt to knock my front door. Instead was just riding around outside. Recived the order. Chips had fallen out of the bag due to being sat in moisture for so long. Chips were dry and warm. Rice was also just warm. Curry was luke warm. Overall not an enjoyable meal due to it being cold and Chips being stale at this point. Won't order again unfortunately.

20+ of us for a netball social ate here last night. The food was hot and order was all correct. Staff were brilliant with us and are a credit to the business. We will be back for our next social too. Thankyou

My son and his partner visited yesterday evening , service was fab. Food delicious. Very reasonable prices. They brought home a doggy bag. Big portions...now I want to go !

Fantastic dinner! Owner is so lovely and welcoming! Food was great, large portions and so flavourful! We will definitely be back

What a fantastic restaurant! Having rebranded due to a certain Indian street food chain, Grand Indian Mowgli's has taken fine Indian dining up a notch. The food was great. Super fresh and tasty and all of our dishes (we ordered 6 mains between 4 of us) tasted and looked unique. The waiting staff couldn't do enough for us and made sure that all of the diners - it was pretty busy even for a Monday! - were well looked after. We will definitely be returning.

I recently dined at Grand Indian Restaurant with three friends, and we all had an amazing experience! From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting ambiance set the perfect tone for an enjoyable evening. The service was impeccable—friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. We ordered a variety of dishes, and every single one was bursting with authentic flavors, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection. The butter chicken was rich and creamy, the biryani was fragrant and flavorful, and the naan was perfectly soft with just the right amount of crispness. What truly stood out was the attention to detail and the commitment to quality ingredients. On top of that, the prices were very fair for the quality and portion sizes, making it an excellent value for money. Whether you’re a fan of mild flavors or love a spicy kick, there’s something for everyone. Grand Indian Restaurant is a must-visit for anyone craving an exceptional Indian dining experience. My friends and I will definitely be coming back soon! Highly recommended! 🔥🍛

Fantastic, easily my favourite Indian restaurant in Cardiff. We’ve been here quite a few times now and the food is excellent (I especially love the lamb balti). They did once forget the naan in our order, but this was quickly fixed and we ended up with heaps of extra poppadoms, dips and salad to accompany it 😄. 5 stars!!!

Visitamos el restaurante Grand Indian esta noche, ¡qué bueno que lo hicimos! ¡Primera vez cenando en este restaurante indio y no será la última! Fuimos recibidos y sentados por Imran que era extremadamente amable y servicial. Poppadoms y una buena selección de dips / chutneys para empezar, seguido de nuestra deliciosa comida principal, Hariyali Beef Masala con arroz de hongos para mí y Pollo Capitán Pathila con arroz de coco para la otra mitad acompañado de una porción de cebolla bhaji y peshwari Nan para compartir. El tamaño de las porciones era muy generoso, Gran comida sabrosa en un entorno cómodo y relajado. ¡No podía fallar nada! Gran saludo al chef en la cocina por sus creaciones! ¡Qué sensación de sabor! ¡La experiencia gastronómica fue de 10 sobre 10! ¡Espero con ansias una segunda visita para probar algo más del menú de gran aspecto y sonido! ¡Saludos chicos, sigan el buen trabajo! 👍

Very friendly delivery man that works there. Food was fresh, hot, very tasty. Bhaji's were.incredible. Chicken was perfectly cooked. Very satisfied.

Consistentemente delicioso, gran servicio e increíblemente sabroso. El personal es genial y acogedor. Todas nuestras comidas aquí tienen un sabor fresco y muy generoso. Volveremos pronto

Sadly under new ownership and it’s not a patch on the old Resturant . Very average and attention to detail poor . Food ok but just ok

delicious food even nicer on our second visit ecxellent friendly service and very good value for money ...looking forward to our next visit

My recent dining experience at Grand Indian was exceptional. 👏🔥🌟 From arrival, the staff provided a warm welcome and attentive service. The restaurant's inviting atmosphere contributed to a relaxed and enjoyable meal. The cuisine was outstanding. Each dish showcased a vibrant and complex flavor profile, clearly crafted with fresh ingredients and authentic spices. Portion sizes were generous, and the presentation was visually appealing. My fellow diners shared my positive impression of the food. 🍽️ The service complemented the high quality of the food. Our server, Imran, was friendly, knowledgeable about the menu, and readily offered helpful recommendations. He provided attentive service throughout the meal, ensuring our needs were met without being intrusive. Overall, my visit to Grand Indian was a truly delightful experience. The combination of excellent cuisine, a pleasant ambiance, and superior service makes it a highly recommended destination for those seeking authentic and delicious Indian food. I intend to return.

Starters were not fresh and served luke warm, the atmosphere was flat and the service was below par.

Ordered food which didn’t arrive, chased it up for 2 hours….only to then be told the drivers car has broken down and we aren’t getting any food. No phone call to tell us this and left us with no food.

Absolutely excellent food. Great selection on the menu, with something for everyone. Staff were pretty good and happy to help. Truly great Indian restaurant.

Fantastic food and great service. Highly recommend this Indian food

Good place to eat. Food excellent

Best curry house in Cardiff. The king prawn kholapuri is phenomenal and probably my favourite curry ever. Staff are always lovely, service is prompt and atmosphere is great. Don’t change!

Bueno, es un lugar favorito cuando venimos a Cardiff. Algo andaba mal esta vez. Hemos estado al menos 10 veces y siempre tan bien. Las bombas de chat de inicio divertido siempre por favor en el gusto. El bhel puri sabía rancio y fue realmente decepcionante que debería ser crujiente con el dulce y amargo encantador, pero por lo tanto era empapado y de sabor rancio. Un verdadero fracaso. Sí, el personal preguntó si estaba bien, pero fue minutos en comer y en ese momento el bhel puri no se había probado. El chip butty también fue una decepción en estilo y gusto. Las patatas volvieron a saber como si hubieran existido durante un tiempo y la salsa de tomate que la acompañaba era tan poco interesante. Mis socios pescado al curry era agradable y el plato de trato también. Es triste, pero ha bajado la lista de lugares a los que quiere volver a toda prisa. En un aspecto positivo el personal es siempre eficiente y encantador.

Llamé a tiempo y no estaba decepcionado la comida era increíble, el personal atento y muy amable, que experiencia maravillosa, gracias a todos los que cuidaron, recomendaría absolutamente y sin duda será un visitante regular

Compré una comida para llevar desde aquí el otro día, pero me decepcionó mucho. Siempre he pensado que esto era lo mejor la mejor comida para llevar india en Whitchurch y uno de los mejores en Cardiff. Sin embargo, la comida que comí era apenas comestible! Tenía muy poco sabor y ninguna especia / calor en absoluto. No volveré a comer aquí.

Después de un largo día en el trabajo llegué a un mowglis muy ocupado pedí un cordero biriyani que era excepcional tamaño de porción muy agradable y salsa de curry muy sabrosa para acompañar al cordero lo recomiendo encarecidamente también bhajis gigantes de tan buena calidad siempre vengo bk mejor sabor curry por una milla gracias mowglis también el camarero en la barra tomando pedidos un makin bebidas fue muy agradable y atento gracias.

Great food when on a shopping or cinema trip. Really good service. You have to queue to get in, but it never takes long.

Had a wonderful meal with my wife at Mowgli's last night, the food was fantastic and seriously healthy portions, and I have to say the staff and service was absolutely first class, looking forward to returning again soon.

Always great food and good portion size, excellent price too.

Not to be confused with the “other” Mowgli’s in the city centre. This is more your original city Indian restaurant, food was very good 👍🏽.

¡No es genial! Tuvimos una mala experiencia con Uber eats (entrega mucho más de hora y media - no es culpa de los restaurantes) se rindió después de que la aplicación dijo que había sido entregado, por lo que terminó cocinando (9 . ¡45 pm! ) entonces la comida apareció veinte minutos después de que la aplicación dijera entregado! El conductor acaba de decir que no es su área habitual, así que ¿por qué recoger desde allí entonces? La reseña es de 1 estrella ya que mi pareja y yo encontramos la comida muy poco apetitosa. La primera vez que no he comido un curry (si se puede llamar así, ninguna especia en absoluto y mis compañeros se parecían, sabor y apariencia, de un frasco del supermercado y partes del pollo eran como un picadillo). Un poco de estómago dudoso después también. El pan estaba bien, pero por desgracia no volveremos a pedir desde aquí. Disculpas por la mala crítica pero el estándar no era bueno. Perdí dinero y tiempo en este pedido.

My go-to place for an Indian takeaway. Hits the spot every time, amazing flavours, well cooked, big portions

Lovely curry as usual..special byriani is banging!

Excellent service, delicious food (vegetarian and vegan) and large portion sizes. Recommend and will definitely visit again.

Outstanding food, very fresh made to order. Very clean, lovely staff. We had the set menu which was very good. Nice selection on drinks as well

Restaurant atmosphere is good, but the customer service is very disappointing.

My salad leaves were black around the edges, papadums were stale, chicken was tough.

Everything about this place is fantastic . Food is banging! Staff are so friendly can’t wait to go back!

This has been our go to curry house for the past ten years. Others have come and gone but Mowgli's has continued to provide top quality food and service. The menu includes vegetarian, meat, poultry and fish. Our party of 4 had mixed starters followed by a number of different main courses. Mine was the harityali beef masala which was exceptional, fully of favour with the tender meat flaking away in your mouth. The staff are really helpful and the service was excellent. Clearly this curry house is one of the best in Cardiff. Value for money it can't be beaten.

Such a lovely service here, the food is 10/10. Go for coconut naan for sureeee. So lovely. All the curry dishes are 10/10 as well. Price is v reasonable, 3 ppl £17-19 on average will get ur tummy stuffed lol.

Amazing, go to Indian. Friendly staff, great food. We are always greeting well by the friendly staff and always have an enjoyable meal

Food Was Nice, Very Nice Staff & Food Came Quick

Always delicious food and friendly staff. One of the best Indian Restaurants in Cardiff.

I recently visited Mowgli's with a couple of my mates, and it was a fabulous experience! The food was absolutely amazing—delicious, flavorful, and it perfectly fulfilled my spicy cravings. The service was top-notch as well. I highly recommend anyone to give it a try at least once. They have a good selection of vegetarian options, and there's also a bar available. I can't wait to visit again! Thank you for the wonderful dining experience!

We usually dine in, however, also collect and have never had any issues. Staff are friendly, service oriented and the food is always delicious. It is always a please to sample their ample menu. Without doubt, out favourite Indian in Cardiff.

Things missing from the order, food was cold, rang the same night to make a complaint was told my next order would be free, phoned a couple of weeks later and spoke to a very rude man who suggested the best he could do was 25% off and suggested I was lying after showing proof

Great tasting food, loved the atmosphere. Will definitely be coming back.

Fantastic food for the six of us…highly attentive to our needs. Celebrating my birthday and I jokingly asked for a candle in my desert and all the staff came out singing happy birthday to me…fabulous. Had a really great night with extra large servings there were a few doggy bags required. Highly recommend many thanks

Very wcoming, lovely atmosphere. Food excellent, lamb melted in your mouth. Onion bhaji was the best i have had. Nan bread delicious.

Food was brilliant, staff were nice and attentive. Worth a visit especially for the gigantic onion bhajis!

This wasn’t at the restaurant it was food delivered from there Caerphilly Road takeaway. Freezing cold food not even warmed before it was sent out. Tried to heat it but it was completely inedible disgusting taste even to boiled rice was disgusting. The warmest thing was the tub of salad that came with it. The guy who answered the phone to take my complaint hardly spoke a word of English, but managed to tell me to FO!

Best curry restaurant in Cardiff. 6 of us dined Saturday evening. Every one of us commented on how delicious the food was. Great service and lovely ambiance. Will definitely return

Was good but the madras sauce needed to be spicier and tastier. The mixed byriani was lovely though and a good choice and blend of flavours.

Had a meal here on the weekend. Delicious food as always and all the staff were very pleasant.

I went to mowglis on Friday night… we ordered a butter chicken, saag paneer and lamb hydrebad… the first two were far too sweet and did not taste very good. The lamb was very nice, however for the last 2 days I have had food poisoning and I think it was due to the lamb as I did not have much of the other two dishes

We read the reviews before we booked as we always do and they looked great but I was so disappointed. I ordered onion bhajee to start and it was a huge potion which put me off straight away but it had clearly not been cooked fresh, it was barely warm and really stodgy, too much flour, hardly any onion, not at all crispy. My curry was ok but the prawns were chewy. My husband ordered the chicken mohani, it was sweet and looked like gravy. The chicken looked reformed. I didn’t taste it, the look on his face was enough to put me off! It’s a real shame as the website says they have won awards and is the best Indian restaurant in Cardiff, absolutely definitely not!!! Not cheap either. We will definitely not be going back!!!

Couldn't fault the portions size or the taste but not a lot of meat,

First time diner. Great atmosphere and good was Devine. Can’t wait till next time 👍🏻😊

Didn’t receive the correct order and when I phoned to complain the phone was put down? Not the service I was expecting after a few years of loyal customer orders

We had the most pleasant evening , the food was superb, Our waiter Andy was incredibly and so friendly, made our night extra special , we ordered on his recommendations we weren’t disappointed , what a lovely night , we are not from Cardiff , but can’t wait to return , we may even ask if Andy is working when we make our next reservation 😊😊😊😊😊 Thank you.

Quiet night- but lovely Great food & service

Great tasting food super generous portions

I recently placed an order for a family curry for 15 from the Crwys Road branch. The staff were very helpful on ordering. The order was ready on time on the day of collection, which often is not the case when ordering takeouts. We ordered the chicken tikka and the chicken tikka burani, both family favourites. Both were delicious. The portions were generous and thoroughly enjoyed by all. Many thanks to all at Mowglis - We will be back. If you haven't been yet, I would recommend visiting either branch.

Wonderful food and amazing service :)

Quality restaurant, worth going out your way for

Always lovely food and service.

Good food and normal service. Not too excited

As it was weekday, restaurant was quite and we went for the first time, but we enjoyed it. We were looking for Indian vegetarian food and we enjoyed it.

Really good food and plenty of it! Dined with a friend midweek and well worth the visit, food was excellent.

The food was good - not the best curry I've had in Cardiff. Decor ia very, very dated. In need of a refurb.

Absolutely fabulous great food and drinks with amazing staff what a great night thank you all at mowgli's crwys road from Mark & Sue

Ordered a curry to discover that I bitten into a used plaster that was mixed in with the Lamb Bhuna. Feel physically sick.

Amazing food ,so tasty. The staff were amazing . The restaurant was very clean. 🥰 Loved it

Food was good but sweet we had peshwari naan and garlic chilly chicken and chicken briyani which was sweet again but overall not bad good experience though.

Poor service, Very Rushed and would never attend this place to eat again. Complete waste of money and to expensive for the poor quality food and service.

Good place for indian foods with drinking facilities. The owner is so my dear. Recommended for any subcontinent food lover's I.

- The restaurant's vegetarian options are quite restricted. - The Roti and Naan served have unusually large sizes and lack the softness expected of authentic Indian cuisine. As an Indian, I am familiar with the traditional preparation. - Unfortunately, the staff did not appear to take my feedback seriously. In short, test is not true indian.

Ambiance is good. But its a bit of a gloomy lighting. Expected authentic indian spices but all the curries were a bit sweet. Service can be improved.

Delicious dishes and big portions! Don't miss the butter chicken!!

Excellent food and great service. Not the cheapest place, but by far the busiest restaurant in the street which tells you a lot.

Chicken Tikka biryani. Reheated stodge. Really disappointing. The chicken was really poor and mushed in with the rice. How can you get it so wrong?

Absolutely phenomenal! Best curry house in Cardiff. Never disappoints be it a sports match day, a weekend or another day in the week! I recommend the Saag Paneer for the veggies out there! My girlfriend loves the chicken dishes! Naan bread, poppadoms, chips and rice are all fantastic! Service is great as usual! We get takeaway as we live round the corner and eat in whenever we have friends and family over! Either works and both times are brilliant! You really can't beat this place and we count ourselves lucky to live so close!

Lovely staff, food was nice...bit on hot side for me but that's a personal thing. Staff very friendly.

Always a good selection of curries to suit all tastes. A really tasty family meal, and reasonably priced.

Excellent night out had the Lamb Biryani which was excellent. Also the first time I have had a flat white with cream.

Had a nice family meal. The lamb hyderabad was absolutely delicious. My husband loved the duck masala. Will defo order again.

Best Indian restaurant in Cardiff. I have never had a bad meal and the prices are really reasonable. I won't go anywhere else!

Had a fabulous meal here! Harriet was superb. Highly recommend

Lovely food and very welcoming staff. First rate.

Wow. Went here on a Sunday evening, always fantastic service and the food is so tasty. Definitely coming back

Great food, lots of choice and some interesting specials.

Incredible food, good portions, friendly staff and very quick with orders.

Another great meal from Mowglis 😃

Food was good, but delivery is absolutely disgusting, rude and even aggressive. Will not use these again because of this.

The restaurant says it’s Indian flavours. But it is more like from the neighbouring countries like Bangladeshi. Very sweet food. Also, before ordering we specifically asked the server to confirm from the chef if the food can be made according to actual Indian taste. He ensured that it would be the perfect Indian spice instead it was all too sweet. Probably not the best place to visit if you looking for authentic Indian food. Must try Chai street instead.

Me and my friend had a lovely meal here the other night. Delicious food, nice atmosphere and very welcoming. After a climb up pen y fan it was just what we needed ! Highly recommend

Lovey service from Damian, great food. We will definitely be back!

Been here a few times, best Indian about! Friendly helpful staff. Food tastes amazing, can tell they use quality ingredients. The meat in the curries was literally falling apart, packed with flavours. Will be back soon.

Awful Indian food i have tasted so far. Staff was friendly though.

Our First takeaway at the highly rated Restaurant & not that impressed sorry it tasted very nice but the chicken curry we had & the Tandoori chicken was very tough also the Nan Bread was like Rubber 👎👎

Wow. Night out with my lady. Went here off spec. Great service. Great food and a good price. Thank you.
