Just the sort of Indian I was looking for as I couldn’t find a traditional one in Cardiff centre. So I travelled by train to Newport and found this restaurant near the station. Ideal, excellent in all respects. It’s on my map now and so I’ll return next time I’m in the area. “Ten out of Ten”!

Excellent quality food, I had the chicken tikka jalfrezi, the curry sauce had a deep smoky flavour and was spiced perfectly, with just the right amount of heat. I was impressed with the keema naan, the bread was almost crisp but not overdone. Lots of vegan options on the menu which is nice to see, Indian food works very well with vegan and vegetarian dishes so nice to see the restaurant embracing that. I have eaten out in several local Indian restaurants in Newport in recent months including Lahore, Shoboraj, Three Mughals, Hatti but this was the best. Nice ambience in the restaurant as well, the interior decor is simple but classy and stylish. This just became my new ‘go to’ Indian restaurant and takeaway.

I had a bit of a wait for my train at Newport station so went to find something to eat. Looking on Google maps, Taste of Asia was only a five minute walk away and slightly out of the town centre but was well worth a visit! I told them I had a train to catch and they got the food out to me in good time which was very good of them. I went for onion bhaji which were lovely, crisp, not at all oily and with a nice drawing and a fresh side salad . Lamb Dansak is my go to but they only served chicken or beef so went for the latter which was very good. It was to the spicier end of the Dansak scale but manageable and full of flavour. They don’t have a license so you would need to take your own beer etc. they die red my to a local convenience store and happily opened the bottle and provided a glass. The kitchen is open to the restaurant which is always good to see the chef at work, the staff were friendly and the look of the restaurant is very nice, contemporary but with some classic touches with the wood paneling. It was quite early when I went so was quite empty but there was a regular flow of take aways being collected which is always a good sign I think. Overall, The Taste of Asia was a very happy find and would happily go again next time I’m in the area!

First, authentic Indian cuisine is my absolute most favorite food! Wherever I go in the world I seek it out. Having partially grown up in Wales and visiting it again now, I truly miss the Indian restaurants that were here 20-30+ years ago. Those were the restaurants where you had fresh chicken and lamb, sauces where you could taste and see whole spices like bay leaf, cinnamon, cumin, green chilis, cloves and cardamoms. This restaurant has none of that authenticity of true Indian cuisine. We ordered chicken tikka masala(very thick fruity red sauce) and chicken bhunna. We wanted a lamb bhunna but they said we couldn’t as the only lamb dish was lamb tikka. The chicken bhunna was frozen chicken, no fresh Indian spices, and oily and sweet. The chicken tikka masala was super thick, very red, no detectable spices, and frozen chicken. The Naan bread was more like an over cooked cracker and hard. The pilau rice was very colorful but lacked any aromatic qualities and no spice at all. the lamb samosas were frozen packets of fried meat. I was underwhelmed and very disappointed. You have to buy the poppadoms and chutneys. Lastly, they do not serve any alcoholic beverages but you can BYOB.

I had previously booked a table for a group of 25 people for a leaving party. Arrived there 15mins ahead of booked time to find the building in darkness and a sign saying it was closed due to unforseen circumstances. I had no call, despite taking all contact detail at the time of booking. Sign left in the door by environmental health stated a NUMBER of things about RATS, in and around the food prep areas, food, drinks and their (rat) droppings. Diabolical customer services. Never mind cleanliness. Absolutely disgusting & then to find out the reasons are RATS! In their kitchen, cellar, bar, on their food and cooking utensils etc.
