Sylhet Restaurant and Takeaway in East Cambridgeshire

Visited after they reopened and had a great time. Starters and mains tasted good at reasonable prices

We have been times and twice we have been dissapointed. The staff are friendly but the service was shocking and both times we went it wasn't that busy .we sat and waited ages between each course and when we got the food it was tasteless and cold .when we mentioned it he said its where it sits on the parcel and where they have the door open so wasn't in presses so won't be going back and it isn't that cheap either .

The takeaway is operational, but dine-in is closed for refurbishment. It would help if they updated their indo.

Can not fault this place. Been around since I was younger and had take aways as a teen and go for meals here recently as an adult, with friends and family. Staff are attentive and friendly. Nice and quite and the food.. never faltered in all the years I've been eating here. If you love a curry you'll love a nice evening meal here for sure.

Another lovely curry never disappoints weather we go in or have a takeaway

Good food. Great selection. The meat in the currys is easily changable, and a large variety Recommend the salee if you like a mild medium dish

Great food, excellent service. Will definitely go back at any chance!

Excellent tasting food and service was very good. Staff also very friendly. Highly Recommended.

Awesome food and Great delivery service thank you

Bangladesh and Indian food very tasty in good portions, big choice and fair Price. All good.

My lovely wife and I had a wonderful meal here. My wife is coeliac and she was looked after by the staff. The beer was excellent and the food hot, tasty and all arrived at once. Highly recommend 👌 👍

This is our favourite curry house in Ely. Consistently great food and plenty of it, including a nicely generous pickle tray with the popadums. Pricing is reasonable and service efficient and friendly. Love being regulars here.

Our favourite Indian in Ely. We've been using Sylet for 15 years in and off and its always consistently good Plenty of polite and smiling staff and great food & drinks. If you're looking for a great curry experience in the area then book here.

Had take out, first time and so far very happy

Wow! The food was absolutely amazing. The staff were so helpful and very accommodating. By far the best Indian restaurant I've been to. Thanks for a great evening.

Ely's finest, in my opinion. Great food, friendly staff, and opposite the taxi rank. Lamb Ceylon with mushroom rice and a keema naan, please. Tuesday night's £17.50 meal is a steal.

Madras a lot hotter than expected but still okay

Excellent service and great food. Definitely one of the best.

Fantastic staff, outside food 👌 😀

Food is good, ambient is nice and relaxing

Delicious curry and great service. Dishes in-house that you can't takeaway*!) Must try for all curry lovers

Waited 2 hours for delivery food turned up cold rang restaurant was told that they would replace next time ....

Wouldn't waste your money. Ordered dinner and I came stone cold, bombay potatoes were raw! Chips were re fried! Overall disgusting. Not worth the money.

Not the best or worst Indian restaurant around, fast service but food is average.

Always great food with a very warm and friendly welcome.

Absolutely delicious meals 😋 😍 I loved my chicken and chicken pea dish

Good food good service very busy did not book so we were very lucky to just walk in and get a table

Friendly, popular place. Good food. Worth a 2nd visit.

Clean, friendly atmosphere. Attentive and helpful staff.

Great night out and the food was delicious

Really lovely meal. Good portion size and very tasty. Fabulous service too

Terrible attitude from the owner's son who doubles as bartender/manager some evenings. Over priced ... avoid the trouble.

The most amazing and kind group of staff and incredible food. Will be coming back very soon 😉

Fishy prawns, overcooked lamb. No no no. Do not go here!

Lovely food, good atmosphere, recommended

Excellent food and service, well done mr. Miah

Just had a lovely meal, efficient delivery, hot and tasty food. Love the sharing portions.

Popped in on a Monday night. Food was good, service was excellent.

One of the best Currie I've had .

Great meal and service - thank you so much 😊

The food was terrible and old. I didn't realize until after ordering that there is a hygiene rating of just 2. Sylhet used to be really good so I'm not sure what happened but that's the last time I spend any money there.

Love this place! Been twice, will be going back for a third at the earliest opportunity

Amazing little find really lovely meal defo going back 😋

⭐️⭐️⭐️(Delivery) I think this would of tasted better in the restaurant, anyway Rice amazing ✅ Curry amazing ✅ Chips good ✅ Naan bread overcooked ❌ The rest of the dishes did not taste fresh ❌ Food had spilled out of one of the containers❌ Delivery was quick ✅ Food was hot ✅

Very nice meal, would definitely recommend.

Good food lots of spice. Catered well for the whole family. Recommend a bottle of king cobra. Special thanks to the owner aka "Ketchup Man" for keeping my tired son entertained! Service was excellent

Best Indian restarant I know, absoltely delish

Great food. very friendly staff good prices

Great atmosphere with old work colleagues, food was very nice, good service, was a bit warm with so many people in the restaurant 😋

Food was decent. Service not so, waited over 30mins for the bill

Amazing service! Due to train disruptions I asked whether a takeaway order could be delivered to Ely station. Sylhet Restaurant kindly delivered this to us so quickly and the food was amazing - the best vegetarian korma I think I've ever had. Thank you so much and would highly recommend.

The best curry ever tonight from The Sylhet. Every dish was remarkable. Sometimes currys can be too salty or too greasy - every dish was spot on. Complements to the chef's, and the lovely delivery driver

Ordered a takeaway online, new to the area so wasn't sure what it would be like. Arrived at booked time, food ready, very pleasant staff, when we got home, food was delicious. Good quality meat, really pleased will certainly be using them again!

Ordered takeaway online. Very easy to use website. Food superb!

Best Indian restaurant in Ely, lovely food good service.

Wonderful meal and superb service from staff. Did have a misfortune accident of a menu falling onto a glass that was half full leaving the table soaking wet when ordering. Staff swiftly changed everything and replenished drink and popadoms which had been effected by the incident. Cannot thank them enough for acting so efficiently and doing so well. The food arrived very quickly and was incredible, highly recommended. We arrived about 7:15pm on Friday and by 8pm it was getting busier but the staff all took it in their stride.....well done guys for a great night 👍🏻

Great food, friendly staff, reasonably priced.....what more could you ask for.

A lovely Bangladeshi restaurant. Nice food and a pleasant atmosphere.

We asked Sylhet to provide a takeaway for our very small, socially-distanced wedding - and as always, the food was excellent. We particularly enjoyed the salee and madras dishes, and all of our guests commented on how good everything tasted.

Very well managed and great food and service as ever. Taking Covid19 very seriously and good procedures in place front of house.

Poor service and delivery, wont use again. Chased them up and they had no clue. Food was delivered late and was luke warm ordered half chicken. Can only say chicken must have been a midget as was so small. Did not enjoy at all, suppose this is expected when you go to a non indian takeaway and Bangladeshi instead.

Have eaten in the restaurant several times and have always been very satisfied. Ordered a takeaway. First they wanted to charge me delivery even though I live in Ely. Decided to collect instead. Got the takeaway home and two items missing. Called up and they said they would add it on next time I ordered. No thank you! Collected the said items. Food was then cold. The whole meal was awful. Not very impressed at all !!!!

First visit, we enjoyed the meal, excelent menu. Friendly staff. Thanks you will see us soon again.

Loved it, work get together and plenty of drinks supplied in a timely fashion. Food was spectacular. Will have to visit again soon. Thoroughly enjoyed.

Great food, great service. Very professional staff. Food is cooked from scratch unlike certain other indian takeaways in ely. I recommend this place as the best place in ely for takeaways and eating out.

We have just had an amazing meal here. Food was delicious and the service was excellent. We would definitely recommend this restaurant. Thank you!

Excellent food & excellent service.

Lovelly local Indian restaurant.

Wonderful selection of dishes. My group selected a mix of cooler and spicy curries- no one was disappointed!

My parents and I have just had what can only be described as a 'mini feast'! We had the lunch offer and there is still enough left for a bite to eat later on! The atmosphere, the people and the food was amazing. Very flavourful instead of just heat, as some Indian restaurants are. Sylhet though is Bangladeshi and the food relies on the mix of herbs and spices bringing the flavours through rather than trying to burn your palate off! I've been several times before and everytime, its exceptional. Definitely worth a visit or two.

An all round winner. Excellent food reasonably priced, friendly and attentive service delivered in pleasant comfortable surroundings. Always top of the list when visiting Ely.

Best Indian I've had in a long time

Sorry for taking so long to leave you guys a review. When i am in ely i always make sure i got to this restaurant before i leave. Staff are friendly and food is very pleasant. It also helps as its quite close to Rowleys fine art auction house where i visit once in a while. A very good recommendation.

Yummy food, excellent service. Medium curry could have been spicier as wasn't sure there's much difference with mild but tasted great so no issue.

Awesome curry and experience everytime....

Absolutely shocking, despite being let down deliveries in the past we continue to persevere however tonight was the best ordered at 8 o’clock telephoned at 9:18 to see where the delivery was and was told it will be with us in 20 minutes it is now 22:20 and nothing despite using the online chat service

Modern and fresh restaurant that was busy but easy going on a Saturday evening. The staff are attentive, well spoken and happy to pace their service to your needs. Food was very high quality and well presented. Beer selection was limited as is generally the case for this style of restaurant. I must personally recommend the Naga dish which was possibly the most authentic Naga taste I have experienced in many years.

Best Indian outside of Bangladesh!

Good food and nice atmosphere. Restaurant full as usual so booking pretty essential at weekend.

Excellent food. No idea why more people don't take advantage of their Sunday lunchtime deal.

Went for impromptu meal after Beer Festival in Ely. Staff found us a table on a Friday night. Brilliant starters and scrumptious main courses and sides. Great night had by all! Thank you Sylhet!

Always a fantastic meal with great staff and very friendly vibes. My meal was super spicy tonight just how I like it.

The menu is basic but it includes all the usuals. Everything tasted very sweet to me. The prices were ok and the service was friendly. I banged my head on the ceiling twice. Probably won't go back

Great place to eat in or takeaway

No were better for a curry, great food excellent service and hospitality I will be back very soon.

Service poor. Food mediocre. Plates cold. Hairs in chutneys. Prices ludicrous.

The food is lovely. I'm a particular fan of the Lamb Naga.

Best Indian takeaway in Ely and surrounding area! Been going for 25 yrs *****

Good food quality food with cheerful service.

Great Indian restaurant and takeaway

Best indian food in area. Try it, you won't regret !

I used to work there as a driver and I know that foods good yes it may not be cheep but you get what you pay for.

Never ever again will I get a takeaway from here it was expensive and the worst curry I have ever had. I should have taken it back but chucked it in the bin absolute dog s*#t. No taste think they forgot to put any spice or chillies in it 👎

Labelled as a takeout but also functions as a sit in. Very friendly staff, good service, nice food and good value.
