We didn't feel rushed at all this time. I booked a family christmas get together. The food was great, service was excellent. I can see another outing here coming very soon. I love my ruby murries.

SYHIBA SOWERBY BRIDGE I must say that in all my 55 years on this planet that the two people who served my this evening Bilal&Rafiq were absolutely spot on in there service and advice. I'm really not a curry kind of person but I was supposed to attend with a female friend who unfortunately had to pull out at the last minute. I'd already purchased the train tickets so thought I'd go check it out because we'd both be coming back soon enough if it was any good. Well let me just say that I'm 100%certain that I'll be re visiting really soon because the customer service skills they both possess are simply different gravy,honestly never mind any bad reviews you may have read like I did regarding the service and how people felt rushed. I've eaten in really fine restaurants all over the world but let me tell you this place is an absolute must if your wanting a curry

Been here many times before but tonight was a total let down as service was rushed. We hadn't even finished poppadoms and pickle tray before they brought out starters and then not finished starters before they brought out main. They book in so many people at one time, hence you can't enjoy it and will not be going again.

We had not finished our pickle tray and starters came just finished them main came and whilst we were talking a waiter asked if I wanted my curry boxed up I said no was just having a rest no sooner finished plates cleared , hot towels came then bill and we put money on tray only for a waiter to ask if we wanted our change , very rude. We wanted a nice meal out not a trip to a cattle market. Won’t be in a rush to return.

We were rushed through every part of the meal felt like we were at a cattle market then when the bill came we put the money on the tray and the waiter asked when he picked it up if we wanted any change back , had wanted a nice meal out as a couple but instead got a rushed hurried meal . Not nice experience

The meal was very nice and tasty and I would recommend the food , but it was all rush rush rush , it’s like they want you out so they can get the next group in , the starters were brought while we were still on the pickle tray then the main when we were still licking our lips from the starter ..the bill came instantly and we were asked if we wanted our change , if I want to leave a tip I will leave one , I don’t want to be asked if I want to leave one ..Unfortunately due to the rushing about they missed out on a tip , and I won’t be rushing to go back

Been ordering takeaway for about 3 years now since moving in to the area they have always been spot on think I will try somewhere else now Tonight meals was by far the worst I have had Garlic nan was in bits and tasteless Poppadoms didn't taste of anything The salad was obviously not fresh and by the look of it had been in a fridge for a couple of days The chicken tikka massala wasn't up to its usual self either Not sure what's going on but customer satisfaction must come first people are paying there hard earned cash to you I have also noticed on trip adviser there is never any reply from yourself ? Why Also why are you cash only everywhere else in sowerby seems to take cards why not you

Although the service in Syhiba is always rushed, the food is good so we overlook that, but the service today was ridiculous, we had starters we were part way through when they decided to stuff the mains onto our table, to the point where things were falling off the table...what on earth is the point of service that poor in an otherwise good restaurant?? Just awful.....In sowerby bridge where there are other great curry restaurants I just wouldn't bother here..they seem to have lost touch!

New to the area we’ve had a number of Indian takeaways trying to find ‘the one’. We found it this evening! Friendly manner on the phone. Delicious food. We opted for the liver tikka - melt in the mouth liver with a kick(£4.20). Never had this before but I will definitely be having it again. Punjabi taste (£7.95), Karahi chicken tikka keema mix (£7.95) sides of mushroom rice and a garlic and coriander naan. All fresh and hot. Can’t wait for this to open - we’ll be visiting for a sit down curry.

So I ordered a family curry to collect on just eat but realised I’d ordered from the Wakefield branch the manager at this branch was sooo helpful he tried to work something out with the other branch in Wakefield but couldn’t I live in Halifax so was going to take an hour at least to get to Wakefield so the manager at sower to branch took my order again and discounted me from 33 pounds of order and charged me 15 pounds I just thought it was so so kind of him to this he was very polite opened the door for me as I was leaving outstanding customer service as he really didn’t have to do this on top of it all the food was delicious nightly recommend this restaurant Thankyou so much

It’s New Years day and we are still in a massive lock down up here! For something different (than my cooking) we have just collected a take away from Syhiba. It was absolutely amazing, thank you, the same quality from those far away days when we used to be able to eat in! Thank you to all the hard working staff who have made our visits here so special, wishing you a happy, healthy and prosperous new year. Hoping this year we will be able to sit in the restaurant again! Thank you

My wife called to pick up a meal that was ordered. The food would have been delicious but for the fact it was over salted. Remedy: do not add lots of salt to the food you cook as it can lead to strokes and heart attacks. Diners can add salt to the meal if they wish to do so but they cannot remove it once it is added. I know people who live in a warm climate tend to add lots of salt to food but Salt is a killer and causes hyper tension.

We went today as a family. It was a last minute plan so didn’t book a table. Turned up and lovely lady at the desk accommodated us even though they were full booked for the next 3 hours. Food was delicious! Service was absolutely amazing! The best service we have ever experienced! Even though the waiters were rushed off their feet, they were really attentive and polite. The cutlery, plates and glasses were squeaky clean. At the end of the meal, when were paying at the desk, the lovely lady was very friendly and polite. Will definitely be visiting again.

Was in and out in less than an hour! Service felt very rushed as food "thrown" onto the tap (huge curry stain on my dress!). They came to take our food order within 30 seconds of being given the menu! Mains came before we'd finished our starters! No social distancing of tables, maybe a foot between each table. Really sorry but I didn't enjoy the food. I had a Dhansak and partner had Madras. Both currys tasted identical! After wanting to go for months (since moving to Sowerby Bridge) we were sorely disappointed.

This place is great! I'd been once before with friends and took the first opportunity to take my immediate family, 7 of us including daughters, son in laws, wife and mother in law, and we all really enjoyed it. The staff are great, all masked and gloved for current situations, very polite, professional and attentive. The food is fantastic, we all had differing meals, and tried each others. All great. Spoilt for choice on an extensive menu, and very reasonably priced considering the taste and quality. Bring your own alcholic drinks, soft drinks available to buy. Thoroughly enjoyable experience. 5 ⭐

My wife’s friends chose this restaurant as a change from where we usually go. The staff were friendly and seated the four of us quickly. We always start with a meat sizzler for 2 to start with which wasn’t on the menu but the waiter said they would make one for us. I wish we hadn’t , The Shish kebab was not nice. Lamb chops were tiny the lamb was tough and the chicken didn’t taste right so didn’t eat it. Our mains were lamb tikka garlic balti. And Chicken Koraahi The balti was quite pleasant but lacking in depth of flavour my wife said hers was pleasant but again lacking in flavour depth. Family garlic nan was a bit on the small size and severely lacking in garlic. Overall not a fantastic experience but when it was time to pay our friends didn’t know it was a cash only establishment. This I find suspicious in itself but we had to walk on to the only cash point in Sowerby Bridge to get some cash and had to pay £2 to the machine for the privilege. This was deducted from the tip.

So I’ve been coming here for years and travel all the way from Oldham to do so. My last visit on Friday night was spot on as usual, friendly fast service and top noch authentic food. However the last review written on here from someone who wanted a free bee has really annoyed me as I know these lads at syhiba and have got to know them on a personal level and they are some of the most hard working people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. Syhiba offers a BYO service and work on very small margins as they do not have a bar hence why the last review has really annoyed me. If someone has got the wrong meal surely the right thing to do would be to exchange rather than calling back on another day asking for a free bee and then going on a public forum to express your desperation’s, it just doesn’t work that way, you can’t go to retail and get the wrong item, use it and keep it and ask for a free bee without return or exchange on another day

We dined here last night with four other friend’s. The service was brilliant and the menu extensive. Wouldn’t usually eat fish in an Indian restaurant but my friend recommended Masala Fish.. Had this as a starter along with 3 others, it was fantastic, so good that I ordered a takeaway portion for my son. Eaten here 3 times now, our friends eat here regularly as they live locally. The restaurant doesn’t have a drinks licence but encourage diners to take their own, in my opinion this makes the experience cheaper when taking own drinks.Can’t recommend this eatery enough, the place was rammed (Saturday Night) so I’d recommend booking a table.

Ordered curry’s last week and they had packaged the wrong ones up. Completely different to what I had ordered, rang up to see what they had packaged and they informed me they had messed my order up and we would be entitled to 3 free curry’s next time we ordered. (Message left to inform manager) rang today to order and was informed that they would not do this! Absolutely poor customer service ! Basically told that I was lying although I had the receipt and was able to inform them all of my order. Was unable to speak to the manager, and then they hung the phone up. Eaten here for years but the service seems to have gone down hill recently ! Will not be recommending or eating here again!

We love this restaurant, this evening it was very busy but the staff were still attentive and service was good. We had Chicken tikka starters which had great flavour but we found it to rather tough which we have never experienced before. I cannot say what our mains were as my better half ordered ( we always share a curry ) the flavour was awesome but yet again the chicken was a bit tough.

We usually get takeaway but decided to eat in for a change. Mum doesn't like too spicy but there is plenty of choice on the menu. Really good food and service even though the place was packed. The naan bread is really light and tasty and is served on a spike. The coffee is also excellent. They have a good choice of dessert as well and saw several different ones going past but were full from the curry. Definitely recommend.

Total white boy curry shop. Expect to see a lot of fries with curry. Still feel greasy now! The two oily meat samosas were lost on the plate with a measly amount of salad. Worse still.. Since I don’t eat meat I obviously ordered veg samosas! Not impressed. Followed by the most oily curry I’ve possibly ever had. When I told the waiter he told me to order a dryer curry next time. There won’t be a next time pal!

We love this restaurant and I have always given them great reviews but they were below par last Friday. They had some new staff that really were not up to scratch, with more experience I hope they will be OK. Surprisingly service was very slow for this place, food was brilliant as usual but we had to ask for the salad for our chicken tikka starters, plus we had not got a plate to eat it on ! The naan with our main arrived late, was dropped and came in bits. They brought us another 10 mins later but it was too late so we bagged it for the freezer.

My friends and I have been coming here for years and the food is always really, really good. This time was no exception on the food front, but the service was just really poor. It was a Friday night, but it took an hour for us to get our starters, you couldn’t catch a waiter for any drinks because they were rushed off their feet at all times, and it then took another half an hour after we finished the starters to get the mains. There was another large table next to us that came in at the same time as us, they got their mains, ate them, and left the restaurant all before we had even got our starters. I can’t fault the food but they really need either more chefs or more waiters so that they don’t fall down on this. Or don’t commit to as many take away orders so you can serve the people sitting in the restaurant. We’d choose another place next time because ordering at 8pm and not eating your main until almost 10pm is unreasonable. They also wouldn’t knock anything off the bill for the terrible service which was another minus point.

Visited to collect a takeaway order, after being given a estimate of 35 minutes. We left some leeway and arrived 10 minutes after that to be told, after paying that it would be 7-10 mins more , then another reschedule to 15 mins. After an hour I chased again and the food was presented to me but all of the starters were luke warm at best and the garlic naan burnt . All the time of standing there new orders were flooding in and being told 50 mins, when the entrance was full of people waiting tables and orders. I’ll give this place a miss going forward the wait , food temp and also requirement for cash only has made it a visit not worth making against other up and coming challengers in the locale . Up your game syhiba or you will see more departures

Me and my girlfriend came here last night I suggested this place as I’ve been coming for a long time and I knew what to expect. We both really enjoyed it, both starters and main were really nice. Full of flavour. I order lamb on the Bone and my partner order creamy garlic chicken masala both curries were beautiful. The menu is pretty big giving you a wide range to pick from. They offer bring your own alcohol too which is always handy. Inside the restaurant is really lovely inside with booths and comfortable seating. The staff are really friendly and attentive they go out of their way to remember your name which makes you feel like they appreciate you and you’re not just another ‘customer’.

We had a nice meal at the restaurant when we were visiting the area but the food was not what we are used to. The prawn starters were lovely. Tasty and a good portion. The chicken in the two main meals was cut very small. My jalfrezi had no vegetables in it. The mushroom rice was nice with big slices of mushrooms. It was a shame that you had to take your own drinks. We were not from the area so didn’t really know where to buy anything. Wished they took card payments.

Enjoyed a nice meal here, restaurant quickly filled up and felt like the waiters couldn't wait to take our empty dishes away and present the bill so the next party could be seated. Went to pay and was told they don't take card payments, so my partner had to go out to the cash point in the rain to get cash, Very poor in this day & age. Probably try somewhere else next time that will accept card payments.

Visited on mother’s days and we were quickly seated and food was lovely and no long wait however.... the staff were a little too attentive ! Whilst you don’t want empty plates etc pilled up you also don’t want to waiters constantly coming round and shaking your beer cans (you take your own alcohol) they really need to be careful of this.. I had to move my drink for fear of them taking it away before I had finished !! Also they did interrupt us whilst eating to ask us to pass an empty bottle, my finally criticism is you cannot pay on card which seems weird, everywhere takes card payment now right ! you have to instead walk down to a cash machine which charges around £1.50 to withdraw your own money, they should have told us this when we booked !! Overall restaurant is really nice, it is nicely decorated and food was delish.

Good night out. Not ripped off with extortionite drinks prices. Go early otherwise you will struggle to get a table

Came for our staff do in January and it was pre arranged and food pre ordered. And they knew that there was a vegetarian yet the only vegi things that came out for the mains were rice and the large garlic bread. The rice was cold and the garlic bread was cold.

This is a lovely restaurant, the staff are so friendly and the food is awesome. This is a busy restaurant because it serves some fantastic food. We usually go early because it is popular but even when we don’t the staff will give us a time to come back for a table in half an hour. Great opportunity for a beer in The Boars Head ! Love Syhiba best curry ever.

First time been back since it was redecorated - done out very nice. The staff are always welcoming and attentive. Went back to my favourite starter of Calamari chicken - no idea why it is called calamari as there is no squid in it. What I do know it is delicious & filling. Followed this up with creamy garlic chicken - very creamy, garlicky and yummy. Will be back next month.

My husband often gets take outs from Syhiba which he always enjoys.This was our first time dining as a family. We were not disappointed the waiter service was first class, relaxed atmosphere and quality food. My vegetarian dish was one of the best I have tasted bursting with flavour, chunky veg and an undertone of a spice(s) which I could not put my finger on. All round first class. My seven year old son felt like a little king in the plush surroundings and the warm child friendly approach he received from ALL the staff. Attention to detail spot on, fabulous food and at a very good price too. 5 STARS from us.

The food was gorgeous as always at Syhiba, however this year they had three sittings namely 12pm, 3pm and 6pm. As the first one ran over by the time we arrived at 6pm some groups had to wait an hour in the small reception area with some having to stand outside. We were seated upstairs where there was a long table full of old food, plates and serving plates left out that some customers had to face whilst eating! Our table wasn't set ready for us and we were 20 minutes before we managed to get any glasses for our drinks.

I am a regular here and this is the best indian restaurant within 20 miles at least. The food is very good and the staff are very well trained and polite. You can take your own alcohol which we like.

Had a table near the window. Glad we reserved ad it was full. We all picked something without meat. Mine had cauliflower and potato. We took our own wine. Would be good to see sweet potato and parsnip in some things too. Only downside to be so busy we could hardly hear each other because it was so noisy. Good fab though.

This is the best curry restaurant around. The service is great and food is very tasty every time. Especially the chicken Korma which is so tasty- fairly spicy (but not too hot), well spiced taste wise and creamy. In other restaurants korma is so bland and sweet, this recipe is just what I’ve been searching for, for a long time! Do not change because you have it spot on. Maybe if people complain about the spice, provide a very mild version on the menu as an alternative. It would be a great shame for the current Korma recipe to be changed. The new signage also looks great. Highly recommended!

We eat at this restaurant on a regular basis because it is competitively priced, great selection, great taste and excellent friendly service. Last weekend we had great pickle treat starters with popadoms followed by awesome chicken tikka cooked to perfection. Our main (as usual) was Punjabi taste with pillau rice and naan ( we share the curry). Brilliant value, we love it.

I cannot praise this restaurant enough and last visit was no exception. Stronglyrecommend the Tandoori King Prawns for starter which are served on a sizzling plate and fantastic flavour, cooked to perfection. Fish pakoras also great and good size portions.

This is a bit of a strange place. Firstly though and most importantly, the food is good. Very lively, not at all relaxed. Not a good place for a romantic or couples night. Groups only. Waiting staff rushing round with little time to actually serve with a smile. Chaotic is a good description. Better organisation would make this a much more enjoyable experience

I just don’t get why there is no drinks licence in this place? When you roll up out of the blue and don’t know the format, you simply haven’t brought any drinks with you. Our hubbies were not pleased to have their curries with coke and no beers! (Not even offered a glass for the cokes- just plastic straws in bottles- totally lazy! )

We arrived at this restaurant around 6.00 pm only to discover you need to pay by cash or cheque for everything which was inconvenient.

We went there in a party of some 20 people, the ordering was chaotic, when the food came a lot of it was wrong. What we had was lovely but they need to get more organised. Also annoyed about them not taking credit cards, one of our party had to dash to a cash machine. That would be a real nuisance now as there is only 1 machine anywhere near.

Unexpectedly I was able to have dinner with my son Charles who picked the restaurant. As we were only two and had a booking we passed the queues and were seated and served very quickly. We had popadom and pickles then went straight for a main course each and shared rice and a family naan bread. Wow, delicious garlic naan and the mains were full of flavour and the kind of spice that creeps up on you and makes you glow! Great service from engaging and polite staff in a vibrant fun atmosphere. Not the place for a quiet chat, more for laughter jokes.

Probably the best curry in Halifax, always very good, great selection, and it hasn’t a license so you get to take your own alcohol, which keeps your bill price down

Lovely food, friendly owner! A great place with great tasting food, a good variety on the buffet they offer and a friendly staff to-boot. It's run by an owner who takes great pride in the running of his business. He even suggested that if we have specific requests for the buffet, to ring ahead so that he can have them specifically prepared fresh. More restaurants should be run like this. 😊

Edit: Oct 2024 - Sadly, despite rumours of just closed for a refit, now seems to have closed down. Shame. Update: Dec 2024 - Good news! They're back and food as good as ever!
