Sitar Balti in Monmouthshire

The food was delicious, the atmosphere was pleasant, the service was excellent. and Horatio Nelson also stayed in the building in 1802))

This was the tastiest curry I've ever eaten

Very nice food in a beautifully converted cellar with good service too.

Amazing authentic dishes. Not your run of the mill. Beautiful food lovely staff

We had take-out. Delicious foods!

Sitar was recommended by a local that i was talking to in the local Tesco! So glad I came here as the food was excellent. My server, Shuhl, was very helpful and suggested a lovely Lamb Achari as I had asked for a tasty soft lamb dish with a but of a kick. This did not disappoint! Tender lamb, very flavoursome sauce, with a Madras strength accompanied by Pilau rice and a chapati.. lovely!! Service was great and Shuhl was very knowledgeable and friendly. Would recommend eating here if you are looking for a great curry. I will definitely come back here next time I am down on business.

Delicious food and great atmosphere inside. Very nice service.

We ordered a takeaway from here on Friday evening. The food was gorgeous. We will definitely be back and hopefully visit the restaurant as well as use the takeaway. It was a little tricky to find but worth it.

Service was great, food was fabulous and the prices very reasonable.

Wow just wow first time we have had a takeaway from here and we will definitely go again and would recommend to anyone who wants a takeaway to go there had madras and special biryani both meals absolutely beautiful little restaurant tucked in the basement well worth a visit 😀

Visited last year while staying the night at chepstow, gorgeous food, great service and lovely wine! A hidden gel looking forward to coming back this week.

Went for a night out with work colleagues. With it being valentines evening the restaurant was busy but the service was excellent. It's not a large restaurant so best to book in advance. Food was delicious and very tasty.

It has to be one of the best curries I've had. 100% recommended

Allways consistent quality of gorgeous food coupled with beautiful service. Our very favourite place to eat in chepstow. Thankyou .

Hard to fine as it hidden underground, but food was really really good, staff fantastic and good wind list at reasonable prices. Chicken dank was epic. Lovely crisp table linen, even had fresh oranges at the end of the meal, We will defiantly be back again soon.

The special balti was the best curry I have ever had, absolutely delicious! Lovely brick vaulted ceiling as well.

Very good food, excellent service. Would recommend

Absolutely love this place. We continue to go there. And never disappointed. If it’s just as a couple for a romantic night out. Or with our boys. Same service. Same standard of food. It’s a very good 10/10. Highly recommended and yes we will be back again and again.

We often come here even though we live a 20 min drive away simply because it’s THE best Indian food around. Set in a lovely old wine cellar it always feels special, crisp white tablecloths, candles, even a fresh flower on every table. Staff are exceptional and of course, the food is THE BEST.

I love the Sita Balti it has a cave interior best indian restaurant in Chepstow delicious food and lovely staff.

Thanks guys. Always knew it's the best Indian in Wales. Callum

Had a great meal here with friends, all food was excellent, the place was friendly. I have to say the Chapatis were fantastic.

Excellent dinner with my dad. They squeezed us in with no booking. Food was brilliant, great value. Service was perfect. Highly recommended.

Great restaurant, which has a cosy atmosphere due to the victorian arched ceiling. Food is excellent and the staff very friendly and efficient. I come here often and always have a wonderful welcome. Thank you hakim, rajon, and shadi.

Visiting the area for one night and was planning on going to another curry house but it was closed on a Tues so ended up going here and so glad we did! I’m a very fussy eater but the food here was the best I’ve had in a long time, good portion size, nice and hot and nice staff who clearly work very hard. Reasonably priced. Go there, you won’t be disappointed!

Food was excellent service friendly and efficient. Wish I lived nearer

Always my favourite Chepstow curry restaurant.

We went here for a friend's birthday and chose it based on the reviews. We were all delighted with every aspect - decor, service, food, drink, price and ambience. We are already making plans for a return visit.

Fabulous food, service , with friends on my birthday, highly recommended all dishes were cooked to perfection

Lovely place with delicious food, and sorted me out at a late hour with no fuss. Can't fault the service. Will definitely return.

The strangest tasting indian I've ever had. I'm used to curries in Leicester but this restaurant is not a proper curry house.

Great restaurant, always delicious food, warm atmosphere, very friendly.

Best Indian in Wales, fantastic take outs, great fine in, good is outstanding, patrons are friendly and attentive. I've travelled the world, and would say this is the tastiest grub going. Respect to the chefs! 6/5 * ***Update*** The SITAR HAS CHANGED. It's become even better than ever. The most amazing dishes outside the Indian subcontinent!!! 11/10 stars!!

The best curry ever. I've been going there for over 20 years. Excellent service fabulous food every time. Compliments to the chef xx

Wonderful food and great service. A gem of South Wales. Prices are reasonable and good value. Overall a very enjoyable experience and will go there again soon.

Food was great and service was paced and we were asked if we were ready for food yet. The only thing that let it down was there was a burst pipe at the back of the building as we were finishing our food and things got a little hectic. Clearly was a one off tho, I'd go back there again.

Very tasty food and good service

The Sitar Balti is the best Indian Restaurant I have visited. For 10 years I have brought my friends, family and work colleagues to show off Sitar. Thank you : )

Excellent meal fantastic service

Delicious food, good atmosphere and friendly staff. Great selection of food and drink. We always have a nice meal here and receive a warm welcome from staff.

If you didn't know where this was, you would not find it. A lovely eating establishment in Chepstow. We were there for the Wolfpack Pilgrimage, which started and will finish 1000 miles later after navigating around Wales. Would recommend anyone in the area book early as it's a treat.

Haven't been for some time but we both felt that the quality of the dishes we had were not as good as before Pre-Covid.

Called in without any expectation but had the best lamb madras I have ever had! Fantastic and thanks

An excellent meal as ever. Lovely setting, very wide choices on the menu. The food is delicious and the staff friendly and attentive. Would thoroughly recommend.

Really unique place, great food and friendly service.

Lovely atmosphere and great food!

Fantastic experience made all the better by Raj and sheb would recommend amazing food. Thanks so much to all front and kitchen staff

Friendly Restaurant with good food

Always great food and service at Sitar. Will keep coming back time and time again. Staff are really helpful and accommodating. Would recommend booking as they do get busy.

Excellent food and staff were lovely. Thank you

It's always good when you're with family!

First time at this restaurant, so not sure what to expect. Started with chicken tikka, this was nice however three small bits of somewhat dry chicken was not a great start. However the taste of the dhansak chicken was the best I have ever had. This made the meal for me. My partner was happy with her meal. So all was very ok. Much much better then the Indian meal we had only a few days before at our local Indian restaurant.

Great food, great service, great time. A must visit in Chepstow.

They accommodated us despite having reservations. They had an hour window which they offered to us. They didn't make us feel rushed and were very polite when the booked guests arrived.

Really good. Food, environment and service was excellent. Jaipur curry was packed with flavour. Very enjoyable evening.

My five star rating says it all great food wonderful staff spotlessly clean very impressed. Never had a bad meal yet. In fact, gets better each time I go . If you haven’t tried it yet you must.

Really delicious food - having the metal bowls over candle flames kept everything hot throughout the meal and everything ordered was fantastic if a little milder than I expected (great news for those with less of a tolerance for spice) though packed with flavour. Being a wet and rainy evening the floor was a little slippery so I had to mind my step but no mishaps were had - and really that was the only SUPER MINOR niggle. Excellent service, excellent food, will be returning.

Ordered a takeaway and it was brilliant. Large order, but still took less than an hour and everyone was pleased with what they ordered. Would perhaps visit next time. Okay downside is it is a little hard to find, but some locals pointed us in the right direction.

Whilst eating my meal I poured some salad onto my plate the salad was slimy and smelt terrible ruined my appetite

Not sure why all the rave reviews. I have lived in Chepstow for 10 years and tried the Sitar half a dozen times. Twice ate in four times take-away and it has been consistently mediocre. Perfectly edible but lacking in vibrancy and freshness. As if the chef is uninterested and bored.

Food was delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful. Service was reasonably quick. We had mains, rice, nans and drinks at about £25 a head.

We were a party of 6 eating in the Sitar on a Saturday evening. When we arrived, the restaurant appeared to have mislaid my booking, but this was immediately rectified at we were shown to our table. All agreed that this was one of the...

On a busy Saturday Race night they managed to find us a table even though we hadn’t booked. All the staff were lovely, service was very efficient and the food was excellent. Looking forward to going back very soon.

Service was like a well oiled machine, very smooth. Food arrived fast and was delicious! Loved the atmosphere too. Would definitely recommend!

It’s ok but Very expensive for what it is I’ve had better Would I go back ? Probably not

Wow tasteless and sent back a dish and replaced with another tasteless dish. Nan bread was ok and rice but all the rest just tasted bland and tasteless

Sitar Balti has been our choice of Indian takeaway for a while but the last two meals have disappointed- small quantity of chicken in the dish but it appeared to be padded out with another white ingredient. Could have been chicken but texture was fluffy,...

This was the first time I came to an Indian restaurant. The food was very delicious 😋. Had a great time, thank you to all of the staff

Very nice curry house in Chepstow, food is always good, staff very polite, highly recommended

Staying close to Chepstow for a wedding. Ordered a large takeaway (15 people) and very satisfied with food, service and value.

Having recently moved to Chepstow this Indian is by far the best in the town I don’t generally write reviews until I have visited the same place three times and I can safely say that I have visited the Siltar Indian restaurant on half a...

excellent food and service , been going here 10 years and is as good as ever . thanks sitar for all the hard work and dedication.

Good food. Good staff. Great venue. Great value.

Unfortunately the worst meal I have had in years. A party of seven celebrating a birthday. Not one person had a decent meal. Three people chose the mixed tandoori platter, it was cremated., inedible King tandoori prawns completely tastless, obviously thawed out frozen. Complete waste of money A huge disappointment . I am sure there is better in Chepstow

I came here as a solo traveller on business. The restaurant is tucked away and can easily be missed. Inside I liked the decor and cosy atmosphere. The staff were very friendly and attentive and can't fault them on that. The mixed starter was nice...

Amazing customer service and fantastic food i like it. Thanks sitar Balti staff*❤

Chepstows Hidden Gem! great food, great staff. have been visiting for years!

A little difficult to find,downstairs off the street but inside was really good a vaulted brick ceiling and friendly staff. Good choice of food . Reasonably priced & quality.

Amazing food, friendly staff and excellent service. It’s our favourite local restaurant which we are choosing all the time.

My favourite curry house in Chepstow. Great people and fantastic venue in the cellar. Love it. My friends and I visit every month and have never been disappointed.

Great place in an old barrel-vaulted cellar. I tried the bhorta for the first time in my life and it was superb, as was the mazda nan (another new one for me). The service was excellent (they gave me chopped chillis on the side free...

Entrance is down a flight of steps as the restaurant is in the basement/cellar and it's made to look like a cavern. A row of bench tables to seat 4 down either side. Wasn't very busy on our visit, which was a first for my wife and I but not for the other couple. An extensive menu, which took a while, so popadums and pickles, sauces and onion salad was required to help make choices and when it arrived there was no disappointment as all plates were clear. Great food at a great price, will be planning to make a return visit.👍

We hadn't been to this restaurant for a couple of years, we went with friends about a week ago and it was as fantastic as I remembered. The service was great, the staff polite and attentive and the food full of flavour. We look forward...

good food and service, mix up with the wine but Allin al. a nice meal out

Great Indian restaurant within a lovely setting with good food and friendly staff. Only downside was that it can get very hot in the restaurant and we needed to ask for the heaters to be turned off however, nothing was too much trouble for the...

Best Indian restaurant in chepstow

Hidden away but worth searching out. The atmospheric cellar setting is accompanied by some really tasty curries. Worth a trip over the Severn Bridge to visit.

Sunday evening in a town we didn't know, unsure of where to eat, we eventually decided to try the Sitar Balti. And what a good choice it was. North Indian/Bangladeshi cuisine as good as you will find anywhere outside the Sub-Continent. The cellar location is...

Fantastic food great atmosphere

Been going here all my life love this place foods always nice and the staff are very friendly would reccomend best curry shop in the area

Fabulous meal with good food, drinks & service. Would highly recommend this place. By far the best Indian in Chepstow & the surrounding areas.

Excellent curries, in a dreamy cellar setting, would recommend!

Five of us had a lovely evening at Sitar’s today. The entrance to this basement restaurant is easy to miss but once inside, the brick tunnel vault ceiling and coloured lights produce a cosy atmosphere.The Sitar Balti have an extensive menu and everything we had was delicious including a veggie platter, lamb and veg balti and Sitar’s special balti.Thank you!

Friendly, quick service. The vegetarian platter is HUGE, definitely enough for 2 or 3 people. The food itself was okay, very oily.

What can we say, nice welcome, and the food was beautiful. We had bahjis and shashlick starters, followed by balti and dopiaza, omg it was so so tasty. Would defo recommend, wish we lived nearer. This was our third visit over the last couple of years and you never disappoint. Keep safe guys and keep supplying the excellent food.

A nice setting, but food was bland and poppadoms with the sauce were a total rip off - almost £5 for 2 poppadoms and the sauces. Also they told us by phone there were no tables available, we turned up and there were loads

We have just had our first take away from The Sitar Balti, we've recently moved to chepstow and love our Indian takeaways, used a superb one in Bradley Stoke and was worried we would not find one as good in Chepstow. Today is 1st January 2021 and my wife's birthday so we really wanted to find a good Indian take away, we were not dissapointed. Our order was ready when they said it would be, everything was there and it was a £50 order, food was lovely and hot, the staff were very pleasant and came to the door with our food straight away. We will definitely be returning, especially as there were some items on the menu that we had never had before, so will be looking forward to trying those out.

Great food, service and ambience. By far the best Indian restaurant in the area.

Delicious! Never ordered before as they didn't do deliveries or the very least we didn't know they did.
