Sylhety Lounge in York

Ordered from here for years, ordered today via Just eat and they cancelled my order, and told me to order on foodhub, been sat here waiting for it, never ordering again!

I’ve eaten in and had takeaways from this restaurant many times. Last night we had a take away and it was really tasty. We even had 2 free dishes thrown in. The food was well packaged so it was still piping hot after a 15 minute drive home. Highly recommended.

One of many visits. Tonight we tried a dish we've never had before and it was wonderful...king prawn hashnaji. It was served with the most wonderful cheese nan. Cannot praise the food and the staff enough!

Excellent food highly recommended

Simply amazing food, service and prices. Staff very friendly and helpful. Had starters, main and drinks and couldn't fault any of it. All positives from me. I'll definitely be back again.

In York for work and staying within walking distance. Fancied an Indian and so glad this restaurant was the closest. The food was outstanding and the person who served me (I think it was Abdul) was attentive but not pushy. When I'm next up this way I'll definitely be back!

10/10 as always. Big shout out to Tracey the lovely delivery driver!

We were served by Abdul, who was lovely, and very warm and polite, and the food was amazing, really delicious. I wasn't sure what to order, so Abdul asked me what I liked and said a Lamb Saag would be good. I asked for a mild to medium, and my curry was the nicest I have had, the lamb tender, and the spicing enhancing the flavour. My husband had a Chicken Balti and loved it. The garlic coriander naan and the chapati were soft and beautifully cooked. We are so glad we took a chance on this restaurant based on great reviews, and will definitely be returning next time we are in York.

Beautiful food delicious and wonderful. Highly recommend

Best indian I've had in york so far.! An absolute must if you know your food.

Amazing food and excellent service. Will recommend to pay a visit it's worth it.

Really great curry, possibly one of the best I've had!

Outstanding experience. Great service, fantastic food and reasonable prices. So good we went back to buy more to take back to Somerset!!!

The food is amazing, the staff are really friendly and the menu extensive. The flavours of the food are just superb. Highly recommended.

Excellent communication from the driver… we can be difficult to find but understood directions

Ordered a delivery, the food was OUTSTANDING, and I mean, outstanding, I have eaten from many Indian/ Bangladeshi/ Pakistani restaurants, this one, Sylheti Lounge York, wins hands down. Just need to improve on delivery times!! But well worth the wait. 10/10

We've been many times and liked it every time, love the king prawn dishes.

Just in York for the weekend, Sylhety Lounge was recommended by son in law. Excellent curry and sides. Will use again and recommend

Excellent food and service as always

Wonderful, thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Delivery was 5 mins early and very polite.

Ended up having to pick our own food up as they could not deliver on time or anytime soon. Then when I arrived home there was items missing from our order. Food was tasty but poor communication and planning

food was hot but very salty. always good apart from this time

Had dinner here sunday night while staying at york for the weekend. Nice friendly guys , lovely food great service and very cheap prices. Fantastic night out . Will definitely visit again . Thanks guys 👍🏻

Just outstanding and tasty food. Service couldn't be more helpful and friendly. I can't recommend this place enough. Go there and find out for yourself.

I don't normally have time for review but I can't recommend this place enough. Service was very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly and the food was simply outstanding. This is the best Indian Restaurant in York, you won't be disappointed when you go there.

Banging curry, probably the best in york!

Had an early evening meal here on a cold wet Monday. The food was excellent and the staff very friendly. We had popadoms and pickles, then prawn on puree (lots of prawns), then king prawn dopiaza and special tandoori balti with a garlic coriander naan and pilau rice. I doubt there is a tastier curry to be had in York. The restaurant is a little hidden away near the university, but on the plus side you can park right outside for free. Well worth seeking out.

Excellent!! Tasty food, really well cooked and not greasy. Our new favourite place for Indian Takeaways!!

Excellent!! Tasty food, really well cooked and not at all greasy. Our new favourite place for Indian Takeaways in York!

read the comment box it’s there for a reason idiots

Ordered balti tikka masala but was all chicken not mixed

Food was poor quality wrong things sent popudums all broken and the food was cold

A little pricey for a takeaway but the food is always AMAZING, great portions, fresh & so very tasty.

After reading the reviews we had high hopes . Sadly that was not the outcome . Ordered 3 curries . the buhna and haadi both looked and tasted the same even to the garnish being the same . The one labeled as buhna didn’t even taste like one and that is my go to curry. The chapati was like they had been reheated as even tho hot to start they dried out and went solid before I could even finish plating up .could eat them as they were solid and not soft like fresh ones . We sadlwont be using again .

Really tasty food, very impressed. Took about 25 mins to be ready, then a further 5 minutes waiting at the shop. But I'd rather that than it be rushed out quickly.

Sylhety lounge is our “go to”. Always excellent curries. Always on time with friendly delivery staff. This review was a 4 star rather than a 5 because the item we ordered (Garlic tikka Balti) was described on menu as chicken, lamb and prawn, but the delivered dish was just chicken… There didn’t seem to be any way to ask for one version so assumed all three meat types were included.

Phenomenal food! By far one of the best Indian takeaways in York. Shame the delivery took a lot longer than usual!

Order was late but we were kept informed. Delivery driver was friendly. The portion size was good. I got the king prawn hashnaji, it was lovely. The prawns were massive and well cooked, not overcooked and chewy which they often are in takeaways. I would definitely order from here again if we come back to stay in York.

This Indian restaurant/takeaway is one of the best in York! We've been in for a meal and had a few takeaways now. Delivery was so quick tonight even in this bad weather. The food was hot and absolutely amazing, we even got a few free poppadoms and a couple of sauces, thank you so much!

Excellent food,so fresh and full of vegetables .can't fault and definitely highly recommend 5 star plus

Ordered a delivery at 18:13. Delivery in 1 hour and 15 mins (according to app). 19:51 still waiting for food. Food is always of good quality but delivery service is totally unreliable (despite £5 charge)

I got the chicken bhuna and it was delicious, a generous amount of meat which was super tender and you can tell they use a good range of spices, the staff are super friendly too, great value for money

Now our favourite Indian takeaway, naans are INSANE light and fluffy full of filling, boss curry is amazing and not one curry we’ve had has had the usual layer of oil on top! Ordered tonight and the free lemon rice was missing, called up to tell them they sent a replacement out straight away with a portion of free onion bhajis as an inconvenience gesture!! Absolutely amazing food, amazing service won’t go anywhere else!!

very quick delivery, super food as always

Best Indian in York. Great menu, full of flavour. Variety of dishes to suit everyone. Delivery is good never a problem

Amazing curry, as always. Prompt, tasty and ample portions. Missed the chapati off the order but hey-ho, wasn’t mine! Best curry in York, without a doubt. 👍

Our curry was spoilt by cayenne pepper it just ruined a good curry it was over powering!

Outstanding food, fresh, hot, and very tasty. I personally ordered the Lamb Masala Desi, and it was packed full of melt in your mouth Lamb. Thanks

Best Indian takeaway from York we have had in a while. Will definitely be ordering again! Well done 👍

I've known Aman, Omar and their staff for several years and have diner in or takeaway countless meals since they opened in 2020. The last meal was a takeaway and was beautiful. Indian food is our family favourite and Sylhety Lounge has been our choice for the last 4 years, despite there being 3 or 4 Indian restaurants closer by.

The service was top notch, very friendly and professional. The decor was great and the whole place, including the toilets, was spotless. The food we had was delicious and plentiful. There is one tiny criticism, the chicken tikka in both our dishes was a little bland and not as well cooked as other restaurants but all in all we really enjoyed our meals and if we’re ever in the area again we would eat there again.

Excellent food as always. Well worth a visit

The food here absolutely slaps hard, chicken dhansak is the best I’ve ever had consistently creamy, the lentils are beautifully cooked and I love the fact that they leave the pineapple in . Domonomics approved

Great food Lovely friendly staff too 👌

Just had a boss special delivered and I can honestly say that that’s the best curry I’ve ever had. 💯 this is my go to curry house from now on 👍

Beautiful food and nice people would definitely recommend

Delicious food at a reasonable price, and a quick delivery! Highly recommended 😋

Are you actually joking. Paid £5 for delivery ordered 1hr 40 before we wanted delivery which was for 8pm on a Sunday. Over an hour late….. not good when you have a lot of hungry people. Would have preferred some respect and a call with more updates on why and when to expect it if it was know to be so late. Food was very very good. Just a huge shame the delivery wasn’t followed up promptly

The food was fantastic, had food twice from this restaurant and it’s 1st class, definitely use them again

More of the same, great food delivered as promised

Lovely food. Delivered on time.

Very poor curry , had this curry at other takeaways and always good unless the one from here

No issues with delivery but certain parts of the meal were disappointing. The nan bread was burnt and there was no cheese in the bread or taste and the chips tasted like they were warmed up rather than freshly cooked

Food was really good and the lady who delivered was very prompt with good communication.

Slight delay in delivery but more than made up for by the quality of the food and the complimentary snacks. Great food yet again from the guys at Sylhety Lounge. Thanks

Excellent food and service. Thank you

This was our first visit, as we have not been over this side of york long......the food was amazing and the service was great......they even allow small portions, which is great...many places don't allow this. Xxx we will be back.

Absolutely stunning food. Best curry in York

Absolutely unreal food. And delivered no problems to our campsite! The fish curry is definitely the best I’ve tried , thank you x

Brilliant as always! Plenty of meat in the chicken tikka masala. Mixed starter was delicious and they added extra Popadoms and Sauces :-) Delivery driver was also very polite. Guy with a beard.

Excellent food. And a personal thank you to the chef for giving us the extras ~ very much appreciated! The food was very tasty and I would recommend to anyone !

Gorgeous food, can't stop ordering from them! This week the tandoori chicken on the bone and chicken tikka were stunning 😍

Modern restaurant ,Friendly staff and very good food

Phenomenal food, first time ordering from them and simply wow! The food was amazing and the service was fantastic. I won't go anywhere else now when seeking an Indian takeaway. They 100% delivered with exceptional quality food and service. Simply fantastic! Thanks guys for going above and beyond!

Disappointed with my order tonight. Placed the order at 6pm, it arrived at 8.20pm. The curries were very good as usual but the poppadoms were smashed & the wrong naan bread was delivered. Not a great experience sadly.

Fantastic food and great service

Lovely food, nice and hot. Good amount. Definately value for money.

Consistently deliver great food. Have tried quite a few different dishes, though my son tends to stick to his favourite chicken tikka masala. They are our “go to” take away. We hope to visit their restaurant one day, but their delivery service is hard to beat. Last nights delivery was slightly delayed but we were kept informed and it arrived at the revised time, only 5 minutes later than the the original estimate.

Great food as always, ready at the time we asked for, lovely staff

Excellent food best we’ve had for a long time everything was top notch

First time here and I wish I'd been sooner....amazing food!! We will definitely be back again as this place is so good :)

Food was nice but unfortunately they forgot my rice

I’m sorry for such a poor review but at these prices, I’m so disappointed. I had high hopes and much of it has gone in the bin. Please can all restaurants also stop charging for things like popadoms which were frankly the best part.

Excellent food. Been looking for a new Indian takeaway in York and think we’ve now found it!

Love the food from here, spoilt for choice. The portions are excellent & packed with ingredients. We live in a village & they deliver to us which is brilliant, sometimes it's a long wait, on this occasion they were earlier, either way, it's worth waiting for. Massive thumbs up from me.

It’s always a pleasure to receive our takeaway from Sylhety lounge. The food is excellent. The service is very friendly. Their driver always has something nice to say. I would highly recommend this restaurant/takeaway

Working my way through the menu and am yet to be disappointed Not greasy and not over spiced for the sake of it Love it!

FANTASTIC FOOD, good price, lovely staff, eat in or takeaway always Great we go twice a month for a treat our favourite starter is mixed kebab but all good, in fact I think i'll take the wife tomorrow night, enjoy everyone.

Lovely meal. Plenty there. Lots of chicken n the Korma and tikka masala. Double the amount of pickle tray we usually get from other places. Very good!

Really delicious curry. I went for a punchy hot curry, but it still had plenty of flavour. Nice setup inside and great service. Would definitely go again.

Didn't matter about the delay because it was good

The food was outstanding, authentic tasty food, a hidden gem. Would highly recommend.

First time visiting, definitely won't be the last. One of the, if not.. THE best Indian in york! Lovely staff, tasty food and responsibly priced! See you soon! :)

Best Indian-Bangladeshi food we ever had in york. Very good ambience and friendly staff. Food was on point. Highly recommended.

The best Dhanzac in York so far, and we have had many! Very good naan bread and everything we ordered was very well done. Thanks!!

Don’t have takeaway very often but decided to treat myself and family. Chicken Dhansak and tandoori were both horrible. Dhansak was stodgy and tandoori seemed like it had been cooked in a bitter paste. Unsure if one piece of chicken was cooked. Won’t go back

Wonderful staff .. food was perfect

Sylhety lounge we've had takeaways & we've eaten in the restaurant everything we've tried has been great can't fault the food if I had one complaint some times it's a little cold sat near the door, all the guys r friendly & welcoming, we've just got back from india & tonight we're having a curry from Sylhety. JOHN & VALERIE.

Great food and delivery. Thank uou
