Big family meal to commerorate a sombre occasion was handled expertly by the staff at Starbeck Tandoori. Service was top class and food the same. Faultless. Highly recommend.

Just back from another fantastic meal at StarbeckTandoori. I honestly cannot recommend this place enough. Staff 10/10 and food 10/10. I’ve never had a bad meal at this place in 25 years. The Starbeck Special Starter to share is worth the visit itself.

Lovely people. Unfortunately the chef appeared to be in a bad mood. The food although cooked was very bland and lacked any love. The lamb rogan josh had hardly any lamb in it. The chicken tikka masala as I said had no real flavour. The same applies to the peshawar naan. Needless to say I am very disappointed especially after all the hype.

We visit all the time, live down the road and regularly eat out in the restaurants in Harrogate. Our Starbeck tandoori is the best Indian. Great food, service and value. Never had a bad meal. Small restaurant and you’re not paying for all the flash decor and the “Harrogate tax” of the town centre. Jump on a train to Starbeck takes a few minutes 👍

Visited for a quick Indian with family as I was in the area. I see many reports about poor poppadoms, but ours were great. The curry I had was good, not greasy at all, with the spices in harmony. Would be happy to go back and recommend.

Read some of the recent reviews and couldn’t believe what I was reading. We live down the road and visit regularly. We love Indian food and visited many over the years and our little Starbeck Tandoori stacks up against the best! Not your flash restaurant, but great food, friendly service and very reasonably priced. My favourite is the tikka garlic special, wife loves the tarka dhal. Give it a try you’ll love it ❤️

I’ve been using this restaurant on and off since they first opened. It seems to go through periods when the quality of the food falls below what was once an excellent standard. My recent visit was one of those. The highlight was the mutton madras main. Unfortunately, nothing else served up, came close. Bendy poppadoms, tasteless and chewy lamb chops, inedible fish pakora. Such a shame. I had been bigging it up to our visitors. Time to take a break and try somewhere else.

Our Indian food loving gang were left unsure about this place. The best of the food was a Mutton Madras, Naan Breads and Tarka Dhal but the Papadums were bendy in parts and uncooked. The Fish Pakora was awful and almost inedible, the Tandoori Lamb Chops disappointing The mixed starter was reasonable and polished off with aplomb. Large bottles of Cobra were welcome but we were left wondering about the whole experience. Service was reasonable. Just not great

Went as a family gang of curry lovers. My brother lives around the corner and uses the restaurant frequently. It has a good vibe and was busy on a Thursday night. We ordered a heap of Popadoms with the Pickle Tray and drinks including a couple of large bottles of Cobra. All Okay so far. Some of us had starter, two of us Tandoori Lamb Chops which to be honest weren’t great. Mine were cold and just a bit unappetising. On the plus side the Mutton Madras Curry was good and the Tarka Dahl sensational. Naan Breads too were very good. Service was good and the food was good value. Menus we’re sticky and need a really good wipe.

As a customer here for over 20 years I am always happy with the great quality of the food, but this place has become a victim of it's own success. Sure the food is great but last week when I went, as I have many times since it opened 20 odd years ago, arriving at 7.30pm with a reservation for 7.45, had drinks and main courses, then the bill was shoved in our faces without asking. A few minutes later, it must have been around 9pm we were told to leave the table as they wanted it for someone else. Maybe I'm just being over sensitive about this but I find it disgusting behaviour, we had a reservation and it never mentioned that we had to leave for a specific time. No chance to order coffee or dessert. It was very rude of them. Not sure if I'll give them a second chance or not!

It is absolutely not worth it to go. I am an Indian and I have indian food everyday and the dishes made are not outstanding. They do not have enough vegetarian varieties and do not serve dessert and many juices . The quantity of curries served are also very less . They do not serve enough food for the amount we pay and the ambience is not great and has cramped dining spaces. The quality of the bill is highly unprofessional , they just write down the amount you have to pay without any items listed . The currys are too oily . I would definitely suggest spice culture for Indian type food , they are much better in quality, quantity and taste

I’ve been looking for a decent Indian restaurant since recently moving to the area. I’ve tried a few and have been very disappointed so far, until tonight. By far the best curry I’ve had around here and much better than a much more high profile Indian in the town centre. I had a chicken madras that was nicely spiced but had good flavour too. Rice was good as was my paratha. Very good value for money with efficient service. The restaurant itself was a little dated but a good curry and certainly well worth a revisit.

After reading the rave reviews my husband and I got a takeaway from here. We struggled to know what to order as there are no descriptions of the dishes on the website and some of the names were unfamiliar to us. I rang to find out more but whoever answered wasn't very forthcoming so we ended up playing safe and got dishes we already knew. They don't deliver and we picked it up at the time they said. It was lukewarm, swimming in grease and the two main dishes, a bhuna and a Rogan Josh tasted so alike it was hard to distinguish the flavours. That said my husband enjoyed it.

Having had several recommendations to try Starbeck Tandoori, we thought we should try it out. We took a table for two on a Friday evening and were greeted by pleasant, friendly staff. We were shown to our corner table which was a squeeze, but we did book late and they were very busy, so were grateful to get a table.The venue itself feels very dated and could do with a lift. Bearing in mind that margins are tough these days, maybe a new carpet would help.The food arrived fairly quickly, starting with popadoms and pickles which were plentiful and fresh. We ordered tandoori fish and chicken handi (with a request to hike up the heat) for mains. The fish was quite underdone in places, however as we'd eaten more than half before realising we didn't address the issue. The chicken handi was average, veering towards bland without any real flavour and certainly not 'chilli' hot as requested, however it certainly wasn't offensive and it was all eaten. The naan bread and rice were very good however. I'm sure if we had raised our issues at the time, the staff would have accommodated as they seemed friendly and helpful. If you are visiting this place, expect a very typical 1980's curry house experience and you won't be disappointed.

For a change, we decided to have a takeaway today from here. We ordinarily dine in and have never had any complaints with the many dishes I have tried here. Incredibly, the standard is transferred to takeaway dishes. All meals were cooked and spiced to perfection and not swimming in oil. Can’t recommend this place enough and after 20 years, this restaurant continues to innovate and provide Starbeck with a truly fantastic eatery.

We have always enjoyed our takeaway from here, even though i have never sat and eaten in restaurant, the atmosphere always seems really nice. They are friendly as you order and wait and its good value. We ordered on New Years eve and the wait wasn't too long, i have been known to wait an hour but because the food is tasty its worth the wait, i had tandoori mixed grill and it was really tasty and probably the best i have had. The chicken wasn't dry and neither was the lamb/ chicken tikka. I would recommend the Balti dishes on the specials too. Will be going again and can understand them being voted top curry house, its worth a visit but would recommend booking if you want to sit in and eat.

My, our, favourite curry house!! Often visiting once a week! The service is great, always greeted with a smile. A great range on the menu, although I do tend to choose the same thing each time! I love to sample everyone's curry & have yet to find a dish that's not nice. The naan bread are large enough to share, a good chip portion size too of you're a yorkshire/northern UK curry eater! The mixed kebab starter is a no brainer! You will leave stuffed, I often get rolled out of here due to enjoying my meal too much! It can get quite busy on Thursdays & Fridays. I would recommend to book a table if there a large group. It's only a small restaurant, but they always manage to seat you comfortably (not too close to other guests) The service & food are second to none!

We went with friends who adore the place. Sorry but I was not converted.The poppadums were thick and not very flavoursome. The accompaniments did not appeal either. The mixed starter was just awful, overcooked and lacking in spices to add flavour. I had a makhani as the main - a personal favourite test dish - but what I got was NOT any makhani I would recognise, and I do not like sauces that have the consistency of porridge and stand up all on their own. The accompanying tarka dahl was however very toothsome. Back to dear old Manhester and our trusted favourites, I'm afraid!

The chicken tikka jalfrezi was full of colour, flavour and smelled and tasted Devine. This is a must visit restaurant, serving lush dishes at great prices.

For some reason it has been a while since we ate here and I must say that it is nice to be back. This small restaurant continues to punch well above its weight and leaves much larger and grander premises in its wake.We had one of the special dishes, a mutton archaree, and it was absolutely lovely. We also had a chicken tikka Madras and side dishes of special,rice, bhindi bhaji and tandoori roti and all were very good. Portions were generous and the service was friendly and good.The Starbeck Tandoori lives up to its reputation of probably being the best curry house in the Harrogate and Knaresborough area.

We have been going here for years and not had a bad meal yet. Usually get a take away as we live round the corner but sometimes eat in. Always a high standard . Would definitely recommend

Rated best restaurant in Starbeck 2016We can see why, food is truly amazing, service friendly and fast. Cobra bottled beer here, only minor point is the cola is not the best.

This restaurant/ takeaway offers a great range of Indian food. All the classics are there, but there are other different dishes that are worth exploring. Good value and friendly staff.

I lived in Starbeck for a number of years and visited this place on a regular basis, since it's opening I think about 18 years ago.I still return maybe once or twice a year to take my daughter out who still lives in the area.The food is as good, if not better now then it was when it first opened, the same guy front of house who is very friendly, never forgets a face, but not over intrusive.This is a great little unpretentious restaurant, with fantastic freshly cooked food to order.

Visited on a Friday evening with a group of friends, some who had eaten here before. It was busy so there was a good buzz about the place. Food was delicious, plates were hot (which my Nan always said was the sign of a good restaurant) and they were more or less all clean by the time we'd finished. I've lived in the area a while now and as we've weaned our kids onto Indian cuisine I'll definitely be back.

My family and friends visited to celebrate my husbands birthday, it is necessary to book as the restaurant was busy.We enjoyed the wide range of Indian food on offer and they can prepare combinations that are not on the menu. My family love Indian food and are very particular, we ordered a range of dishes and breads with our curry, all were delicious! We do visit this restaurant on a regular basis and it had recently won a local food award, which is well deserved.

Where do I start.. venue is beautiful and looks amazing! Forhat was our waiter and he was always checking our food and drinks were ok and could not do more for us! The espresso martinis were the best we have both ever had and food exceeded expectations! Overall an amazing experience and we will definitely be revisiting!

Everything first class. This was our first order and we really enjoyed tonight’s delivery! The curry main dishes were thick and not oily like some other takeaway curry dishes. We will be back for certain. Having used woodlands tandoori for a few years that’s just been taken over and not doing well at all on reviews except their relatives then this is a nice alternative . 10/10
