New Curry Centre in Barnet

Our local, never disappoints. Lovely food, nice staff and welcoming atmosphere. Dined in tonight with my family and a new born in pram . Staff were very accommodating ensuring the pram and baby had room and safe . The Sunday buffet is great value 👍. Lovely touch was the complimentary brandy as it was my birthday and served warmed as brandy should be but many places don’t . Take aways are always very good to .

Good flavours and lovely food. Will be going back to try more of the menu choices. Lamb chana was very well liked. Even the buffet selection looked very tasty and appealing

Absolutely awful behavior the staff has

Nice vibe, friendly staff, and for Bengali food? I'd say not too bad,I am a tad biased as I much prefer Indian but will go again!

We ordered food from New Curry Centre for my daughter's 5th birthday. Everyone really loved the food and it was a great variety. Thoroughly recommend it!

We enjoy the Sunday buffet nearly every week.The food is delicious and Sujel the waiter is very welcoming and offers a very good service.

We arrived 5 mins before they officially opened, but doors were open, I was with my mother, who struggled to walk and stand for periods of time. The doors were open, and the man inside said no, you can't come in, not open yet. Anyway, we waited a few minutes outside in the cold when another man saw us outside and said, "Come in." Food was lovely, my mother had used this restaurant weekly for many, many years so wanted to go there. It was in memory of her late husband, and mum hadn't had an Indian meal in a while. Can not fault the food. It was lush!! Just don't turn up at 5.55pm wait till past 6pm 👍

Service was good. Dinner was nice. Plenty of choice on the menu. We had a chicken chat pure and a king prawn pure to start and I thought the size of the filling was too small for the size of the bread - also the Diet Coke we had tasted flat - otherwise it would have been 5 stars. I had a chicken balti and my husband had a meat Thali which is like a meze - a little bit of everything, it had meat bhuna, veg curry, rice, tikka and other bits in.

We decided to get a Indian takeaway. My wife had been there with her friend before and raved about how good the food they had there. We ordered a delivery. From the restaurant. The Sheela kebab hardly had any taste, very bland. My wife ordered Saag which ,again, hardly any taste to it. The Karai chicken I ordered tasted sweet. Not enough spice or salt, incidentally I asked for a hot one instead of medium as advertised. I did phone back the restaurant with feedback. I explained about the dishes were not up to expectation. The madras apparently, is their best selling curry. I beg to differ. And no one has complained about it. To be a great restaurant you need consistency in your dishes , which sadly is lacking in The New Curry Centre. They did offer to send the dishes freshly made but it would have been too late to eat. Safe to say I won’t be planning a visit back.

Absolutely fantastic. Great service and delicious food. Go on a Thursday for banquet night! £14.95 for starter, main, side and rice / bread. The chicken shashlik was sublime.

New staff it's had a refit, foods great well worth a visit!!

Amazing professional, friendly and polite staff. The food is delicious and well presented. Best king prawn biryani I've tasted and my friends enjoyed the sharing platter. Lovely place and atmosphere...we can't wait to dine again!

Have been hearing good things about New Curry Centre and its been there for a long time, so we gave it a try. We ordered the Platter for two for £29.95, Food Arrived within 45 mins as stated. Items missing from the Platter from the menu on their website. Called them and they hadn't updated the latest menu on their website, they've made major cut backs, they removed some items from the Platter, but kept the same price as above. Anyway, we got stuck into the food, and it was dreadful, not fresh, chicken wings were too chewy & overcooked, the rest of the dishes were of the same quality, poor and cold throughout. Would definitely not recommend a take away from this poorly run Curry Centre, very disappointed and a waste of money, poor customer services.

Pop in with a mate before going for a drink the meal was bland even though I ordered the narga curry witch said it was hot! It had no bite to it and was bland! I said to the waiter it was bland he said he could make it hotter? Not change it ? Just go and add some thing to it so it would not have been cooked properly! All so the prawn puri was not a puri was a small flat bread not puri witch is light and crispy I honestly think most restaurants don’t care what they send out or whether people come back strange but my be that’s why there are so many closings . Seems all the old family run restaurants have gone and it’s a few young chancers open up try so sell some spice muck and call it curry ! And while I’m having a rant there is to much on the menu can not be cooked fresh it just a base messed about with and called all sorts of made up names?

Food was shockingly not made that day, heated up probably with Chef Mike. Overpriced too in terms of quality. The gentleman serving us was pleasant though.

Great curries. Great food.been eating here off and on over 20 years

I ordered food for delivery, food was OK but tandoori roti was uncooked. I made complain but they had no regret.

Nice vibe , good food ,nice people

Went in today with friend and family. The buffet was good and good price

It was the highly clichéd dark and stormy Thursday evening when I went for a meal here, I arrived just after seven o'clock and was seated immediately, I was here to eat alone as my friend from the suburbs was actually sitting at another table with a group of her girlfriends on a girls'night out, I ordered the banquet night special,( basically a set meal ), consisting of a starter, a main course and a side all for £12.95,(very reasonable price), I chose a simple meal and had the vegetable samosas for my starter, nice and crispy, well filled and accompanied by a small salad, for my main course I had a chicken byrani which came with a vegetable curry and a plain naan bread, the byrani was excellent, well cooked and lightly crispy rice with a generous amount of chicken, the vegetable curry was tasty and the huge naan bread had been freshly toasted, I treated myself to a beer to wash it all down, the service was first class and very professional and prompt, the restaurant has a warm friendly atmosphere and on this night it was extremely busy, I was glad to find a restaurant that was happy to accommodate a single diner and I was given as much attention as the other diners and not treated like a wallflower like most restaurants do, although a long way from the city of London where I live, it was well worth the pilgrimage to Barnet, I will happily return to the new curry centre to enjoy the excellent food and warm atmosphere knowing I will return home well fed and all for a very reasonable price.

Good curry house, good value too

The buffet food for vegetarians tastes of little more than boiled vegetables. My husband had meat and thought the same about how little flavour was present.

Very nice and very creative chefs! Just look at this bottle!! Highly recommended

Good food. Decent atmosphere. Service OK. Bill took a bit of working out for it to be divided amongst us. Apart would be happy enough to come here again.

Really tasty food, great selection of dishes. Attentive service and very reasonable prices.

The food was delicious with friendly staff and great service. Highlights include peshwari naan, Chicken Korma, Jalfrezi, mushroom rice and onion baji's

The take away arrived and i wish they took it back because not only was it taste less three of us that ate it were all sick this uesd to b a good place to order your curry not anymore for us not the first time dissapointed

Sujel was amazing! brought us great energy & great service all with a lovely smile! Definitely coming again all because of him !

Take out better than sunday buffet as choice is limited

Been here many times food always consistent and restaurant has a nice ambiance

I went with my aunt and uncle. The food was delicious! I dream about the chicken Malaya and the naan bread and The onion Bhajis! A definite visit every time I’m down to Barnet

Bad bad bad, the waiters were rude the food was bland and the atmosphere from the staff was cold. Do not dine here you will be wasting your money very disappointed worse place I have ever eaten.

Great service, fantastic food. Wide variety of indian food and having tried multiple dishes from here, it doesnt disappoint

The food was perfect as always and the staff attended to our every need. See you soon

A genuinely bizarre experience this evening. We ate in and were the only diners all evening. Almost unheard of on a Saturday night?! From the moment we sat down everything was a rush. I think the waiting staff had somewhere else to be as the customer service was non-existent. The food also left a lot to be desired, to say the least. Very poor indeed. Strangely, as we ate the main (quickly) we felt eyes on us to hurry up. This continued throughout the rest of the evening from both of the waiters. Every time I looked up from our conversation they were both looking over, eagerly wishing us to finish. Ordering Irish coffees a bit later on was almost a negotiation to have our order accepted. In the end they gave up with the charade and told us they were closing up at 10pm and to hurry up. One of the most surreal experiences I have ever witnessed. These guys must be doing something right because the restaurant was empty (apart from us) and they seemingly didn’t want our money either. Needless to say we will never return. No idea what income they are running this place on. I counted one walk-in and a couple of take-aways in the 90 minutes we were there.

Good local Indian restaurant. Usual range of dishes in a traditional looking environment. Table booked in advance for 4 people. Food was most enjoyable and fresh. Prices were very reasonable.Thumbs up and we shall come again

Lovely food & great location! We'd gone to the Queens pub before & that was a great pub, the lady who served our drinks was friendly & polite!

Over the last 15 years, I have been fortunate to come to New Curry Centre. The service and food is at a very high level, regardless of being a regular or not! They really so care for their guest/customers. The Sunday buffet is a FANTASTIC value for money and I would recommend this for everyone in all types of family and friend groups. Nice selection of wines and beers. The management really do pull out all the stops in making a fantastic experience. Very good. FYI, I like my hot curries and also my delicately spiced ones too. The vegetables dishes really are top class also. Best one around! And I am NOT a fake reviewer, I live in Barnet and feel this is the place for a non-judgemental amazing curry experience. The chefs are real curry makers!

Very nice restaurant. Good food and Professional service

Deliver very quickly, food tastes amazing

Another great meal there... my favourite Indian restaurant.

Tasty food and speedy, considerate service. Great menu selection, both meat and veggie, and perfect location for a pre/post cinema meal. Will return!

After having a takeaway from here before, me and my partner both thought we would come.and have a sit in meal. We were sat down on the smallest table, then hadn't be asked for our order of drinks for at least 10 mins, let me add that we were the only two people in there after two couples had left. We were then asked for our order, we got our popadom starter but then waited for 45 mins. We had to leave and we never got our food. Very disappointed. They're more interested in their takeaways than the customers in their restaurant. Just to think with the amount of staff and no people sitting in the restaurant, you'd think it wouldn't be a long wait.

Really gone down hill very poor food, it’s a shame really because this was a really good restaurant a few years back. Also called them to give feedback and staff didn’t seem to care.

Lovely impulse trip to this restaurant. We turned up on the set menu Thursday day which did not dissappoint. The set menu includes a starter, main , veg dish and a bread ir rice. We were so pleasantly full on our meal. The staff are really helpful and welcoming. A revisit is a must.

Always delicious food and good service.

Reasonably priced and tasty food! The buffet was great for less than £10 per person

Have used this restaurant a number of times for take away tonight i did order a chicken biryani asked for very mild when delivered it was so hot you could not eat it so went into the waste bin wont be using them again.

Having read the really good reviews we decided to give this a try. Sadly it did not live up to the reviews. Don't bother of you're not a fan of Anglicised bland curry.

Very nice food stuff are polite friendly.FIod is Amazing chicken wings are my son favorite.

Place was clean, a bit awkward to get pass to get to the toilets but if you can overlook that issue then it is worth having a dinner there. The food was very good with reasonable price tags. Will definitely go again!

Had yet another delicious takeaway.The delivery drivers are always so friendly so adds to the whole experience.

Possibly the worst takeaway, lamb was like dogs meat the chicken was passable. Haven’t eating in for years as Atari is much better unfortunately they are closed due to COVID-19

ordered a takeaway the food good as always, but beware the staff are nothing short of useless they dont seem to understand card numbers ..you have to tell them 3 or 4 times [terrible] and then they get it wrong ...what a shame as the food is excellent...come on boss man sort these useless people out once and for all ...

SO RUDE Called on Xmas eve for a Takeaway for all the family. Was quite a big order so was well worth their time. The man on the phone was so rude. Didnt want to go over my order. Didnt want to tell me the price for the order as he claimed he was very busy. Never been spoken to like that in all my life. So so rude. Never go back again.

the food in this place is fantastic the problem is the staff the most miserable and un-polite people i have ever come across in any restaurant anywhere ...what a shame come on boss man get a grip of these people..!!...oh why no wi-fi

Find a nice fresh food and good Style.

Rhetorical question of course. Not much to say on this one though. Curry is divine here and basically your traditional Indian which is all you can ask for from the music to the classic decor. Chicken tikka balti is great but that said have tired many dishes here and none have disappointed. All in all a curry lover’s paradise whether your dish is your own perversion or mine.

Went here today for the Sunday buffet. Went around 6 and it was pretty empty when we arrived but was a bit busier by the time we left. Food was nice however there were only 2 starters and around 5 mains to choose from so not a huge selection. The food was tasty but could have been a bit hotter. Still enjoyed the meal and it was a good price.

Awful. Food is below par. Staff are rude, not helpful at all. Won’t be going here again.

I was on holidays from Australia recently..Me & my family ordered takeaway * Lamb vindeloo HOT * 2 chicken tikka masala *1 Bombay potato *1 chicken jalfrazie *4 rice *3 plain naan *8 popadoms *4 dips * Bottle red Came to £60 !!! Value for money!! We pay more here in Australia 😕 all the dishes were spot on! The lamb vindeloo was my favourite, so hot & spicy! Definitely will return when I'm next in London/Barnet

Came in with my partner on Sunday for the Buffet option and the food had gone cold in the tins. As a result we moved the cold food onto our side plates as it was inedible. The naan was like a crisp and the bhaji's like rocks. It was only when a large family came in that hot food came out. Now I thought "problem solved" because we finally got some hot food and my initial issue was solved. I was later stunned when a waiter came over with glasses of water and said to me in an annoyed tone "why waste this food". And walked off before I could reply. My answer would have been because it was stone cold. I later realised more hot food had come out and I stood and went to the buffet and the same waiter made to walk up to me and watch what I was putting on my plate. It was one of the weirdest experiences ever. Guys if you are worried about your food margins don't do a buffet, and certainly don't treat your customers like they should feel guilty for eating from it. My first experience with this curry house is not a good one. The service was frankly shocking and passive aggressive. My partner and I are new to the area and we have already been to much better curry houses in Barnet. Save your money and go elsewhere.

Was originally planning to go to another Indian place, but noticed this one as I was walking along with my two companions. The atmosphere was perfect, the ambiance created by the music was really authentic. The customer service was excellent. I could not find a single flaw, the place had all the aesthetics of a traditional indian restaurant. The pricing was extremely cheap as it was a Sunday so it was only £9.50 for a buffet experience, so I did not have high expectactions, but as soon as I took my first bite of the rice and CURRY the flavours hit me. It was sooooo exquisite. The tandoori wings were absolutely perfect. Food-wise the restaurant was absolutely perfect. At the end of our stay we received hot wipes and chocolate palette cleansers. Beautiful service 5/5 for sure. Will be back for sure.

Delicious variety of curries on offer at affordable prices. Service and food more than met our expectations. Certainly worth a repeat visit.

Went for the buffet good price decent food and nice service.

Outstanding service n good food

We visited this place a few days a go, the food was amazing. I ordered the chicken tikka masala, I must say it is one of the best I have had. They also do a Sunday buffet which is very good value for money. £9.50 per person. We will most certainly be going again as the service and food are excellent.

Went a few weeks ago with my partner, we stood by the entrance waiting to be seated for 10 minutes. Staff made eye contact however quickly ignored us. Thankfully we took our business to another restaurant down the high street and had a lovely evening.

This is our favourite curry house. Staff are so friendly and the food is spot on! We go at least twice a month. Keep wanting to try something else, but the bhuna is so good! :)

We have been several times and this evening it was average. Food was not as spicy and tasty, and rather bland. Nan bread was average, pillau rice was boiled and not fried - which was not real pillau rice fried in ghee. Portions of vegetables of Sag and Okra very small and disappointing. The dish was not HALF filled!£20, most expensive wine brought to the table and charged.Sometimes this restaurant is better than this. Perhaps it was an off night?

Went on a Friday night, just after 10pm. Service was a disgrace. Showed to a table without a problem. But when food was brought out, server was clearly annoyed and said how he is usually home by now. Main courses came out and again, snips around the time (it was around 10.30). In the end, left after 2 or 3 mouthfuls from the main course (which was average compared to other local curry houses such as The Arati) purely because of the service which was the worst I have experienced and an utter disgrace. Will not be returning and instead will stick to the other local curry houses that service much better food with service that is actually welcoming.

Good service, good food. Good location. If you want a curry in Barnet then look no further.

Great service and gorgeous food

Had a table BOOKED for 5.30 pm this evening I know they're not busy then but did it out of politeness Gave written booking 5 people for 5.30pm Friday, 22nd February Looked put out when I turned up firstThen proceeded to hurry us through every course, even putting wipes on table while we were still drinking Came to collect the money and grabbed it before we even had a chance to check itNo tips from from half of us others did out of politeness Something lacking in the staffObviously we had interrupted their rest time and didn't need our £75

We have been using this restaurant for curry deliveries for about ten years now and the food is consistently excellent and arrives hot and very quickly. Chose to eat in the restaurant for a change as it was a family member's birthday. The two waiting staff could not have done more to make us feel welcome and looked after - even producing a complimentary birthday cake with candle at the end of the meal - a total surprise! (Must have popped out to the nearby Tescos - so sweet!) Food also usual delicious fare and they managed to bring out extra quickly when we asked for a couple of additional dishes. Thank you New Curry Centre - we'll be back.

Best Indian ever. Been going there for over 30 years!

We have been coming to this restaurant for the last 20 years or so.

Took the family out for dinner and picked this marvellous place in Barnet. Will be returning very soon.

Out with my girls and fancied something different, this restaurant wasn’t far but thought it might be little inside but surprisingly it wasn’t small. Nicely decorated, greeted at the door and taken to our table. Food was really nice, the waiter was nice and friendly, we stayed longer than we needed but all in all was surprised so definitely going back.

Best curry house in Barnet, try the k special.

Went with my family for my son birthday and I can't thank the waiters enough for the brilliant service.

I went here with a few friends for dinner. The staff were very polite and friendly and the food was very flavoursome and not too pricey! Would definitely recommend!

I’ve ordered from the restaurant many times and also sat inside for my meals, a great takeaway restaurant with very good food, particularly the biriyani dishes. A warm and friendly atmosphere, suitable for all occasions with family or friends. The staff are very friendly also. 10/10

Myself and my work co-workers decided to come here, as we heard so many good things and let me tell u they did not disappoint.

I went a few weeks ago again and had a great time! Food was really tasty and service was great! definitely my favourite Indian.

The service was amazing- would recommend to everyone who loves amazing service and asking food. Defo going back next week.

Have to say the food was amazing, especially the tandoori chicken. The service was also great! See u next week guys

Not one to leave a bad review but this place warrants it. Sloppy and inattentive service by a waiter who appeared as if he didn’t want to be there. Cheated on our starter as the mixed grill/mixed starter only consisted of two small seekh kebabs and four pieces of meat, wasn’t keen with the main either and the bill produced with no question if we needed anything else. Unlikely to visit again.

Visited on Banquet night... The food was ok, not amazing but not awful... Unfortunately my main memory was being asked to move table twice - first time in between starter and main which we didn’t mind, the second time HALFWAY through eating our main course! We literally had food in our mouths as we were asked to move for the second time to accommodate another family. There was no apology or thanks from the staff - just ‘we need you to move here’. Stop trying to squeeze as many people in as possible and you might get returning customers. Have since tried a variety of other Indians in Barnet which are far superior - for dining in we like Arati and for takeaway Naga Saag is spot on!

Very tasty curries and very clean place!

In my opinion the best curry house in Barnet. The food is fantastic and very well priced, the staff are very friendly and respectful. Thanks again for a great experience.

Not nice people not nice food .....I’m sure I would have had an easier time eating through my leather shoe then the lamb I had.

The first time we went there I really liked it. It was about 6 months ago. Today I have to give it only 2 stars. The wait was very long, 45-60 minutes and the vegetarian tahli wasn't as good as I would hope for. I like thier dahl though. A lot of dishes have too much sugar in them and taste rather sweet than spicy.

After using the restaurant for years mainly for takeaway the staff knew us so after checking the reviews before going as we were taking a family member that had never been I couldn’t believe the staff would be rude. We had booked a table of 5 and when were were asked for our order we asked for a few more minutes to be told in a stern voice they were booked out for the evening. So instantly felt rushed. The menu for their banquet night stated you got dice & bread to which the waiter was insisting was rice or bread. He was not happy to be told & means and.. and he reluctantly allowed us both. If he had been more tactical and less rude we honestly didn’t need both. Straight after taking out order he got tipex out and changed the menu.

Really good takeaway, maybe not the very best in the area but they're much more reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend.

Went a couple of months ago for an evening meal out with my girlfriend. Food was okay and was shown a table straight away on a Thursday as the restaurant was busy. However, nothing could have prepared me for the shambles that followed. To make room for another family that had come in the waiter had asked us to move tables in the middle of us eating our starters! the food was taken from my partner while she was still eating. Overall, no apology or recognition from the restaurant after being very rude with how they went about it and since then I've tried a few other restaurants in Barnet where the quality and service is right.

I went there with my family for a birthday party and the food was great! Really good service and food given on time. Definitely will go back.

I came here with my wife for our 6th wedding anniversary dinner. We ordered chicken tikka and fish tikka as our starters. They were delicious. As a result for my main dish I ordered the tandoori fish, it literally came out sizzling hot on their special metal dish. What a great choice! My wife ordered a chicken tikka balti dish which was very nice too. Overall including nan bread, rice and soft drinks we didn't pay much it all came under £40 ,which was great value. Considering the restaurant was quite busy the staff were great, very pleasant and helpful especially when my wife was having difficulty in choosing her main dish, they asked her type of curries she likes and so on. Definitely received a service with a smile! Great choice I will be coming here again!
