Royal Bengal in Highland

Poor quality tandoori chicken. Spongy, over cooked, bland chicken. Not cooked in a tandoor, very little flavour and no char any of the dish, but still overdone (!?). Also had seekh kebab starter which was better flavoured but again poorly cooked.

Lovely Resturant with exceptional staff who went out of their way to ensure we had a great visit. Food was delicious. Prices were good value no complaints at all.

4 of us visited on a Tuesday evening and were the only people there. We can’t say a bad word about it. The service was friendly and efficient. The food was possibly the most flavourful we have tasted. It’s always a good thing when you can taste the food over the heat. The lamb was very succulent. #dotheroar

Delivered on time with a friendly delivery person. Food was hot and enjoyable although not as spicy as we would have liked. Great size portions too. Would definitely order again.

Thoroughly enjoyed our Indian meal here. Waiting staff were very friendly and accommodating when I asked for a not too hot chilli dish. Food was excellent. Would recommend.

Lovely food as always. Great service. Thank you

I was in Nairn overnight only and had left my wallet in a cafe that had already closed, so without money, card or my phone, I wasn't able to get dinner or even water. I went into The Royal Bengal just to ask if there was any way I could pay in Euros and bring the sterling the next day, but instead, Eileen kindly let me have a dinner and two waters to take to my hotel that night and trusted me to just put an envelope through the door the next day before I traveled on to the airport. Not only was this gesture very kind, trusting and generous, but the meal I ate was exceptionally good. One of the best lamb curries I have had, with generous promotions and several popadoms and sauces to accompany the meal. I'll definitely return if I go back to Nairn anytime in the future. My order was the lamb butter makhani... highly recommend it.

lovely meals 😋 bang on time large portions on curry dishes good value staff at royal bengaline will certainly order again

Been here several times and every time it's world class. The staff, the place, the food. You cannot fault any of it.

Bland tasting curry, disappointing. Ordered a cheese naan and it came with barely and cheese in it. Curry would have been lovely if it had more flavour.

We need to cancel the order as the police had closed the A9.We called the restaurant and they agreed a refund if cancelled in the app, but cancellation wasn’t an option offered to me.

Food was very bland, portions were good. Chicken was very rubbery. Very disappointed

The food was very expensive for what it was. I found the curry to be bland and the two different types of curry I tried honestly tasted the same, except different colours. There was a lot of sauce and very little vegetables and chicken. It tasted low quality- like there was flour filler for the cream based curry. The serving sizes were small. Even the tiny glasses of soda were overpriced. The one thing I loved were the front staff. Very kind and provided good service.

Worst food ever. Mix grill in particular, a lot of money for something thats pre packed and heated in microwave when ordered. The rest of the food wasn't great either. Stale food.

This place is an insult to indian food. No idea of spices and extensive use of colour to mask the dishes. The food was stale and mix grill was precooked and heated in microwave on order.

Despite ordering food online in advance there was a 25 minute delay on arrival to collect. The food was quite expensive but overall was nice, although the chicken was dry in both our dishes which were not what we expected. Wouldn't use again unfortunately. The staff are very polite and we absolutely love the locals here. A very nice atmosphere of you were to dine in.

Extremely tasteless. Worst indian food I ever had to be honest

Had a lovely Tikki Masala here. Keep up the good cooking. We will remember you on our next trip.

Take away - chicken tikka pieces , curry sauce with garlic naan and chicken biryani. Received complementary papadoms with sauces. Very bland food, lacking spices and flavour. No salt either. Bitterly disappointing food for £32.

Food was delicious delivered earlier than expected

Was mento be very hot nonheat at all

Oh wow what an amazing meal. So fresh and the tastes were amazing. Such an unassuming place if you didn’t know about it. The food is out of this world and served by very friendly staff.

This is not for Indians as it is really bad Indian food. Went there based on 4.4 rating on google but extremely disappointed. Their chicken biryani just colored rice with boiled chicken added to it with no spices. We ordered Madras Chicken curry, veg vindaloo, paneer jalfrezi, and chicken biryani with naan and kulcha. All of them are the worst dishes.

The meal was delicious and the staff friendly. I highly recommend it.

Order is an hour late and the number in the page does not work when I called it

Everything was good unfortunately never had my onion bhaji.

staff and food were awesome owner seems to dislike people from Indian subcontinent

Was coming back to Aberdeen from Inverness , felt hungry and needing a quick food , bump in to this place for food . Didn’t buy varieties of food , just a lamb biriyani, not extraordinary but it was very good , delicious not too spicy 🌶️, it’s Halaal place . Service was good but price for biriyani is £19.00 felt but expensive may be having difficulties to buy the ingredients. Menu is very simple not complicated like other places . Diffidently going back again. Recommend

We had a takeaway from here ; chicken dopiaza and chicken pasanda Nan bread and veg pakora; all in all very nice

Food was fantastic all dishes that we had were very tasty

Almost £12 for about 8 chicken nuggets that tasted bad, chips that were just terrible, I didn’t get what I wanted, I ordered a cheese naan bread but there wasn’t any cheese it was just a plain naan bread and the keema naan bread had barely any keema at all it was just plain with a bit of keema.

Great atmosphere, delicious food, our favourite Indian restaurant.

Very good food and a friendly host

Got a takeaway here a few nights ago and was pleasantly surprised . The chicken chilli garlic curry was exquisite and the rice was nice and aromatic. All in all excellent meal and very happy with what I received. Will be back .

Popped in on a cold Friday night and had a lovely evening with 2 really good curries, rice and naans. Service was great, food was produced in good time and tasted delish! Were a few customers in for takeaways but were served at a separate part of the counter so caused no problems. All in all a good find. Will be back if passing Nairn again

I always go to The Royal Bengal when I come home to Nairn. The Lamb Rogan Josh is the best I have ever had. The meat was so incredibly tender it fell apart. The staff are always so friendly too. Easy 5 Star

Great entrance, interior very nice and lights for atmosphere! Food was incredible, poppadoms with huge amounts of dips, bombay aloo, nan bread, paneer was to die for and the chicken rogan josh flavours were beautiful! Trip from Aberdeen glad we chose to eat here :)

Had the best dinner here. The starter, main (epic butter chicken) and drinks all hit just right and were fairly priced especially for being high quality. Ashlinn and Elaine were lovely waitresses and took great care of us though we've got to give a special thanks to Mosh for his warm welcome and generally being a legend. Definitely our go-to for any and all future Nairn trips! ✌️

Great meal, full of flavour and more than generous portions

Lovoly local restaurant, lovely staff and very nice food. Would highly recommend and I'm quite fussy about eating out.

We ordered online to discover was Inverness opposed to Dunfermline, aware this has happened to many people and Just Eat are profiting incorrect order. First stated 48 hours now latest email 7 days, cancelled directly with restaurant which advised to contact Just Eat , outcome impossible, reordered meal and went direct to restaurant to pick up, ended up eating at pm

Very friendly service and excellent service thanks 😊

Quality food and excellent service 👌

Food was ok , limited options as I am diabetic would use again though lamb lovely

Best if the best - gotta try it! We can’t wait to go to the restaurant! 😍

I just got take-away. I'm not saying the food was bad--it was OK. I'm just saying that if you like the flavors of Indian food, you will not find them here. I got the set menu for one and everything tasted like it was made by someone who has no idea what Indian food is supposed to taste like. Everything was sweet, not spicy, bland, with no depth of flavor. I've had lots of Indian food and this was just...weird.

Lecker Essen und tolle Beratung. Beide Bedingungen sehr freundlich und kompetent. Besten Dank

Can’t go wrong with these guys! Every time I’ve ordered, (and this opinion includes that of others also eating) they say it’s incredible. Especially your lamb tikka, coconut rice and the spinach dish - just delish! Will continue to order but try cut down the frequency or I’ll be the size of a house. Well done Royal Begal - tasty stuff!

Got the wrong curry delivered.

Visited with my wife and Daughter, very friendly staff who seated us quickly and took our drinks order, there is plenty of choice for all tastes here and although they were busy our food arrived quickly and was very tasty, we ordered Chicken Tikka Masala and Chicken Makhani with accompanying sides all served with a smile, highly recommended

The fried rice ordered was bland it was not even salted . The service was excellent but the food was really bland , no where near to be an indian restaurant because nothing tasted indian, the butter chicken was sweeter than ice cream, it was more of a dessert than a starter . I would have given zero stars for food if it was allowed.

Nice staff, nice atmosphere but the food was over priced compared to most Indian restaurants - £16 for one small dish of curry is a lot. I expected something extra special for that price but all of the food was very mediocre - a real disappointment when you spend £80 on a meal.

Had a takeaway and the consensus was not good. All food was bright red and not very tasteless For me it was the worst curry I have had for many years

This was our first experience. We had read others' reviews and thought we could treat ourselves as we are on holiday. From first greeting to settling the bill this was a genuinely happy choice of restaurant. The service was quick, friendly and helpful to guide us through the extensive menu. The food was excellent and from the animated chatter from other diners (families, friends, colleagues) it very much appeared that they too were happy with their meals and drinks. Finally the cost..we were about 20 pounds per head - starter, main course, naan and a soft drink each...plenty! Certainly lived up to expectations..perhaps even better. The only minor issue being the tables are quite closely packed and if it had been even more busy (it was about 75% capacity) then it might get a little too noisy and less intimate for some.

Absolutely delicious - we loved it!

Food was stone cold when arrived and when reheated the chicken was very dry.

Fantastic meal. Took great care to cater for a nut allergy. Very kind staff, made our night. Highly recommend.

The Clubhouse Hotel and Restaurant provided a luxurious experience! The rooms were stylish and spacious, and the restaurant's culinary offerings were truly exceptional

At The The Royal Bengal, the vegetarian dishes were delightful, and the eco-friendly practices added to the appeal.

3 different waiters took care of us. Very confusing. Food was ok, but nothing special. The dish was supposed to be medium hot but we both got a feeling that the spices were not added at all to pur dishes

Very easy to order and was ready exactly when they said it would be. Best online Indian experience

Oh this place is amazing the different tastes just tingle your taste buds

Food was watery some pieces of the chicken wasn’t cooked properly they forgot my chips

Lovely food, delivered right to our caravan!

Delicious food, fast delivery and very fair pricing. Would definitely recommend if visiting Nairn ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

So we was here as family of 3.ordered vinadloo .tikka masala.jalfrezi 2 rice.pomadoms.nana bread pewsweri nan. Sever was on point.five star service by our server..ive never had a Indian meal out was so good.i ordered wrong curry was changed not problem at all.def recommend. A little gem.def go bk.try it its amazing...Thanks you too chef for amazing food in sever.huge 5 stars

Very good at letting me know food was ready for collection. I arrived 30 seconds after I receive txt as I was parked outside. Ordered samosas, paid £5 and only got 3, that's a bit of a rip off especially when they have me 6 chicken pakoras for a similar price. The quality of the curries was good. Unfortunately they were Luke warm. Ordered from here almost every time we are up and this was the first time that the food was not hot. Would have again, but would make sure it's hot before I leave.

Booked this for my Wife and I as a sit down meal. Got to the restaurant and were escorted through an area where loads of takeaway carriers are sat waiting for food to be put in them, under hot lamps The restaurant clearly has its focus on takeaway or delivery which is ok, but the table service was quite rushed and pressurised in the way our order was taken. The starters arrived with the accompanying sauces and chutneys served in plastic takeaway pots and wooden ice cream spoons to serve them with which was just plain odd when having a sit down meal ! Note - The restaurant menu is significantly smaller than the online menu is. Luckily the dishes we wanted were on there. The food was actually very nice, but it is one of the oddest Indian meals ever.

Had a take away here of veg and chicken pakora was all very bland.

The food was very tasty, very big portion for 1 person, so I have leftovers. I'm sure it'll taste just as good heated up. I ordered the meal deal for one, I would say a bargain and would recommend it to anyone!

Très bon ! Personnel très accueillant. Un peu cher quand on combine le plat l’accompagnement et le pain.

Really nice food, friendly and professional staff.

Service was good the food was just ok fairly tasteless and expensive

The set meals are NOT available for dining in- only as take-away. This is NOT made clear with online menu and door menu which may be said to be misleading. Staff friendly and attentive. My curry tasted like a really simple tomato sauce. Nan bread was generous in area but thin.

The Set Meal for One was absolutely huge and could easily have served 2-3

Our table was available on arrival. Food was absolutely delicious and seemed freshly cooked. Service was excellent and price reasonable. We’ll definitely return next time we’re in Nairn.

Alles in allem eine solide Leistung - Essen war lecker und der Service war ok. Die Preise sind angemessen, aber nicht günstig.

good food served without delay and piping hot.

The food is always great and consistent 👌

Me and my husband went here for our dinner tonight very friendly staff so helpful the food was absolutely beautiful I would highly recommend this lovely restaurant 10/10 we will be back again thanks

I’m a newbie eating at Indian takeaways and restaurants so I’m no expert, but this place is fabulous! The staff are friendly and helpful. The food is delicious and I am now addicted to the poppadoms and mint sauce. Last week we ate in the restaurant. I made a throwaway comment that I had to get a jar of the mint sauce as it was so delicious and as we left I was handed two tubs of it! This week we had takeaway, ordered it online and it was ready a few minutes after I turned up to collect. What’s not to love?

A long overdue visit tonight for a beautiful curry. Very highly recommended!

I was early for dinner as the restaurant hadn’t long opened. The owner was very friendly and helpful when it came to trying to think what dishes to eat! The smell of food in the restaurant was incredible!! I knew it was going to be great food and I was right! Food was hot/well presented! I couldn’t fault the food at all!! I’ll definitely be back!! Worth booking a table here when your in Nairn!!

Thank you to the RB for taking vegan options seriously. A lot of good choice. Great staff too, Elaine is always so helpful and nothing is too much effort for her or the others .

Beware when ordering a local delivery on their website. 50p service charge for using the site and £4.50 local delivery. The delivery wasn't added to my bill at the time of ordering and isn't mentioned on the website. It was added without my knowledge and was charged to my card. So £5 on top of the meal in total. The food was nice but this makes it an expensive experience.

Food was too hot to eat when it arrived (I mean that in a good way) so much food for one person so I've got leftovers for tomorrow but I'd definitely try them again!

Warm friendly welcome, excellent food and service

Absolutely delicious take away meal as always. The madras was superb.

Just visiting Nairn but I've got to say this is one of the best Indian meals I have ever tasted. Absolutely amazing. Next time I'm up this way I'll be using again.

Great place for carry out in Nairn

The food here is amazing and staff are so welcoming. A definite must for Indian cuisine!

Went in to the reception area to collect my pre ordered food. I said to the lady at the counter I had an online order to collect she never said a word and then put the bag in front of me and then walked away without saying a anything or asking the name. Lacking customer service skills or just rude? I’m not sure. Food was lovely which is why I scored 3.

Chicken was dry, rice was dry like bullets, very disappointed, flavour bland. Delivered on time. Sorry but would not recommend

Fantastic food. To bad they don't deliver to Germany

Very nice meal and great customer service.

My order arrived early and was still hot. So that covers the basics. The chicken tikka jalfrezi was very very good. Best curry I’ve had in a long time.

Have eaten here 3 times this year, but that’s it. Drinks prices pretty ridiculous- £19 for 2 wines and 2 non-alcoholic beers. Vegetarian options sound good, but if you choose a paneer dish that’s all you get; no vegetables, just paneer and sauce. Nan bread and popadoms looked and tasted like they had been sitting around for a couple of hours. Had to ask for water, drinks menu not supplied. £55 for 2 mains, rice, nan and drinks is crazy. Not impressed.

Good service, reasonably priced. Had the chicken jalfrezi which was nicely spiced with generous amounts of chicken. We also had paneer masala which was less to my taste but my son liked it.

Tasty food although not as much spice as we are used to. Delivered to the caravan park with no problems.

Lovely food service was brilliant asked if everything was ok asked if we needed more drinks lovely atmosphere Would have liked the table wiped after plates cleared away but will definitely return when I come back to Nairn
