The Balti Cuisine in Cardiff

Having been away from the UK for five years, we went back today and yes it’s as good as always. Old fav Rohan Josh lamb. We both ordered the wonderful dips for the great poppadoms too !!!

The food and the service here are really fantastic

This used to be my favourite Indian restaurant, which I would highly recommend to friends/family, not any more! Ordered a chicken madras, arrived swimming in oil, onion bhagis with mint sauce, onion salad and popadoms. The onion bhagis arrived but no mint sauce, onion salad or popadoms! I rang the restautant to kindly tell them they had not been delivered to be rudely told "its not there fault, it was the Deliveroo drivers fault". I had paid for these items and they WOULD NOT deliver them to me or apologise. The whole meal went in the bin. I will NEVER order from this restaurant again, the staff used to be so lovely, but whether or not they have changed staff, they seriously need to look at their customer service skills!

It was absolutely immaculate. Don't remember having been to a better place to eat, 10/10 !

Always top class , great food everytime

I recently came to Cardiff for work with my colleagues and let me tell you the food was excellent!. The service was also phenomenal also the atmosphere was excellent too. Thank you Mo for a great time it was a pleasure I will 100% visit again when I come To Cardiff. The Balti Cuisine really is the best restaurant in Cardiff!

The most delicious food we’ve ever had at an Indian restaurant in Cardiff. Very welcoming, attentive staff and clean, comfortable surroundings. Very reasonably priced too, we highly recommend it!

Been living in Cathays for 8 years and this was our first visit - it won't be our last as its excellent!

I come here with my band mates.... The food is amazing. I now let them recommend meals for us... They never disappoint. Friendly, helpful staff. great food.

Always have an amazing curry at this restaurant,never disappointed,service.is excellent, very good value for money! Really, really excellent restaurant,a must try! I often have the non vegetarian Thai, and absolutely love it!

The food here is exceptional and the service is really friendly.

Fantastic selection of items on the menu and we had the best service. Really helpful and took care of us all night. Thank you very much

All the food was great, but I'm particularly partial to chicken pakora. It wasn't on the menu but I was able to order it on request!

Have visited many times of the past year and can say the standard of food and service has never dropped. The lamb and chicken dishes are always excellent quality - highly recommended.

All I can say is........superb. My food was excellent, service was excellent and the atmosphere was busy bur so chilled. What more could you ask for? Keep up the excellent work staff at Balti Cuisine. I would definitely recommend the company to anyone. It's a must try 🖤🖤

Good food, good portions, good prices, good friendly atmosphere, a good evening all round.

Great service and food you can't go wrong. Make an effort to go their!!

Have ordered a take out to be delivered several times,always on time,always hot,absolutely beautiful food, ,have recommended this restaurant to loads of friends and family and they all enjoyed the food,well done balti cuisine keep us happy with your food 🥘

Home made Samosas was the best I have ever had and have eaten lots of them. The team made us feel important and food extremely good. Cannot praised this restaurant enough and you can park

Wowwww, just wow. All I can say is that I had the most extravagant meal I have had in a while!!!! No other Indian restaurant can live up to this one. From the warm customer service of the top legends himself Mo, he has been an absolute superstar and is always up for a cheeky laugh. Not to forget his son who knows how to keep everyone smiling. The food itself came out piping hot, had a very cheeky lamb jalfrezi and the chicken biryani was out of this world. And that biryani sauce was something magical. Keep it up lads, will see you next time!!!

I came from Bristol with my family and my father has never had a curry, so we chose to balti cusine and it was AMAZING, The service was excellent and the staff were quick with the drinks and papadoms and also the food, the manger Mo and the waiters was very polite , will definitely come again , Best curry house in Cardiff!

Fabulous experience - food, drinks and service amazing, well deserve a visit, thank you Mo and his incredible team x

The food as always was a taste sensation !

Lovely food very nice staff 100% definitely coming back

Lovely food and great service 👌

Recomendo, só é pena não ter café expresso.

My first time here, on a friend's recommendation. Fabulous food, lovely friendly staff. Great evening.

My first visit here and really enjoyed it. Food was fabulous and the staff were lovely and friendly. Not the cheapest Indian I’ve been to but definitely one of the best. The place was nicely decorated and very clean. Will be going again soon.

Been going here for over 30 years. Haven’t been in a while, I forgot how good it is. Amazing food, chicken madras is top notch 🙌🏼

I had the mixed grill which was sumptuous.

As per usual, the food was exquisite, staff fab Couldn't fault anything.

7 of us visited for my Step Daughter’s 14th Birthday and what a great experience! From the service to the food to the value for money, we had a really great meal. Nothing was too much trouble and staff were only too willing to describe and recommend dishes. Even the singing of “Happy Birthday “ was instigated by the lovely member of staff that lit the candles and brought out the cake! Thank you all so much and we will definitely be using your restaurant more often!

Had a family birthday last night and it was absolutely lovely, the staff are excellent and cannot do enough for you. The food is varied with lots of choice of your classics but also a lot of unique dishes with own little twist, everyone thoroughly enjoyed there meals, definitely recommend this place and will be visiting again for sure. Top notch

Went here for a date night with my partner. The lamb saag was gorgeous and the service was attentive. Restaurant had good atmosphere. We will be coming back again!

Friendly service and consistently great food.

Had a fabulous meal tonight at the Balti Cuisine. I ordered Chicken Pathia and as I love my dish a little hotter the chef spiced it up and even added 2 chilli’s! Absolutely perfect 👏🏻can’t wait for our next visit ❤️

Went to The Balti Cuisine this evening for a meal and chose the House Special Mixed Grill. Wow, a huge sizzling grill plate full of tandoori chicken, lamb chop, King prawns, barbecue chicken, spicy wings, lamb tikka, Phew I exhausted just listing it !!!! Great value for money. Well worth the visit. Will definitely be back. 👍

Myself, my Husband and our friends came here recently. The food wasn't too bad, had better but would have come back for my husbands birthday as we were planning to book for 30 of us. Our thoughts changed for here when at the end we were paying and manager as us for a tip... That was is, you don't ask for a tip, that is the choice of the customer to leave a tip and not for you to put them in an embarrassing situation where the customer wouldn't decline. I bet the staff don't even get the tip. Terrible situation and will not return. You have lost out on a table of 30 mid week all because of Greed.

Best place in Cardiff. Fantastic food and great service

Visit on a weekly basis food and service always excellent for many many years

My favourite curry place in Cardiff. Staff friendly, food leaves you feeling full but not bloated, happy to box up your leftovers, very reasonable prices. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

I went with a bunch of friends at last minute and they were more than accommodating. Lovely food and quality service.

Been coming here for years Mo (the manager) always on hand to help and top gent Food is great and service to match

Top quality food, sometimes we fancy a change but we always come back to The Balti Cuisine as it’s consistently excellent food quality & customer service. Nothing is too much trouble for Mo and his team. Highly Recommended!

This was always a favourite curry house to visit, but the quality of food has deteriorated, no longer authentic flavour. None of the meat curry dishes were marinated in the spices, tasted like meat with curry sauce placed on top. Portions size was small, with 5 pieces of chicken/lamb…I counted!!! Perhaps this was why the table next to us left before us with several bags of empty crisp packets remaining on the table!! Service was also slow, not enough staff available, I think they have crammed in too many seatings with extended restaurant area but not followed through with more staff support. Sitting in the waiting area for our table (which was late) felt like we were waiting for a bus and not very comfortable for the table full of guests who dined next to us. Sadly no longer recommended and food quality needs improvement. Was looking forward to dining out but wished I ordered our usual takeaway!

Many years ago was I introduced by my friend Paul L. from Pontyclun in this loverly restaurant... I haven't been there for at least 5 years and still the owner recognized me.... I was lucky to have again the opportunity to taste the excellent Indian cuisine.... By the apero are the pompadums with the chutney, mint sauce, fresh cut onions and something very hot already a real treat.... I had a Baltic lamb curry, which was really succulent.... Again great food served by a lovely staff in a nice atmosphere. I do recommend the Baltic Cuisine with all my hart, I enjoyed so much being here again and I enjoyed every bite. Thank you very much Mo! You are doing a great job!!!! Please, do continue!!!!

Simply stunning. Poppadoms, sauces, mains, atmosphere beer. Just love it when a pkan works. Be back soon !!!

Have eaten here with friends and family a few times. Our last visit was disappointing, not only did we wait forever for our food when it arrived the curry was a much smaller portion to previous and the half and half that was ordered had 6 chips and not much rice. Have to say I do not see any value here, not the cheapest around but I don't look for cheap I look for quality and value for money, this was not met here unfortunately.

Excellent food with all the usual favourites but a few new ones to try. Loved the chilli chicken. Staff were amazing- efficient and friendly. Highly recommend!

Always excellent food here. recommend the Maharaja Biryani with a Madras sauce (personal choice). Great atmosphere staff always friendly

Been there many times, and noticed the place was only rated as 21st Indian in Cardiff. What ?!? I've tried a few of the top 10 in Cardiff, and let me tell you, it's on par, if not better than some.

Had a hankering for a Balti and Nan so went for the restaurant with balti in its name. Went for a chicken and mushroom. Absolutely gorgeous, and delivered really quickly. Five stars. Will be back.

We visited here during the 50% off eat out scheme and was so impressed! I thoroughly enjoyed this scheme as I tried new restaurants I may not usually visit, this being an excellent find, where I would definitely revisit! The curry was outstanding, the chicken tikka wasn’t the usual red colour and so tasted a bit different to previous ones I’ve tried but was absolutely divine, nice coconut tastes! All sides of rice, naan, chips and bajis were fab. The drinks were reasonably priced and the staff were so lovely, really attentive and helpful, no complaints at all! Really nice atmosphere, carefully and nicely decorated with a welcoming vibe. Will be coming again for sure!

Best service we got😍 delicious foods😋😋😋 Thankyou guyz for treating us like this ✌️ keep it up👍👍

The food was amazing! We had never been there before and we went in on the off chance. They were so welcoming. The shared starter was delicious. The mains were light and tasty.

Had a fantastic meal here on Saturday night. The food was very good. The service was great. Highly recommend.

Uso este restaurante regularmente con familiares y amigos y nunca nos decepciona.Esta fue la primera vez que lo uso para comida para llevar / entrega debido al bloqueo de coronavirus.El servicio fue rápido y la comida excelente, a menudo la comida para llevar parece carecer de la calidad extra que se obtiene al comer, no, así que con este restaurante, las porciones eran muy generosas, llegaban calientes y recién preparadas.Muchas gracias a todo el personal, manténgase seguro y definitivamente usaremos su servicio de comida para llevar y entrega nuevamente.

He estado yendo a este restaurante durante 40 años, incluso tuve una fiesta privada de 50 cumpleaños allí para 40 amigos. Organizaron la elección de entrantes / principales y nans y barjisNunca he tenido uno malo y siempre es fresco y de gran sabor: vino de la casa 10. 95 / sigue adelante - cerveza india druaght y buena relación calidad-precioBuen ambiente y buen ambiente y muy buena calidad.Prueba o te perderás un regalo

A great curry once again, I think this place is getting even better. Great food, great service. Thanks all

Solo me encontré con la cocina Balti hace unos 2 meses, pero ya he vuelto unas 5 veces, llamé nuevamente anoche y siempre recibí una cálida bienvenida de Mo y el resto del equipo. Fui por el cordero Methi, era absolutamente de primera categoría, tiene que ser probablemente la mejor casa de curry en Cardiff ya que nunca me han servido un plato malo. Recomiendo encarecidamente este lugar, échale un vistazo si tienes la oportunidad.

A group of seven of us went here for an evening meal. Food was fantastic and the service quick and attentive. Well done you guy's!

The food and service at the Balti Cuisine is second to none ,Mohamed and his staff must be congratulated to achieve this in a very competitive market

I have been going to this restaurant for many years meals. The food is always delicious, of good quality and never disappoints. The staff are friendly and welcoming. What more do you want?

Had the set menu thinking it was a bargain for 2 people. The poppadoms as extra and naan bread were amazing. Usually love coming here but the drinks were flat and the chicken masala was revolting. No spice and all lemony. Told the waiter who said this is what a masala is.. Not in my book. The lamb was all fatty. Would not have this again.

The food and the service at this restaurant are consistently excellent.We had Salmon Tikka and Lamb chops to start, both were excellent, possibly not choices we would make for a takeway food, so enjoyed trying these dishes at the restaurant. Both were excellent choices, fresh tastes and sizzling to our plates.We chose a Lamb and a chicken dish for main course. I'm normally fussy about the cuts of lamb and wouldn't order out, however, the lamb was absolutely lean, cooked beautifully and fresh.This is a must try restaurant for those loving real quality food..

I had the meat Thali selection. Waiter was good enough to swap prawn for other dish as I'm intolerant to seafood. Service was good, food was excellent and price was good.

Read the reviews and I have been coming her for years whats gone wrong? I was served the worst curry ever it was just a ball of onions supposed to be Lamb Jalfrezi! Take away .....Naan bread should be light fluffy smeared in ghee with coriander but none of that instead lump dough ball which looked like a pancake! It was rubber! Utter rubbish served to me! CTM was green in colour I have never in all my life seen a green CTM,...something gone wrong here maybe head chef away I don't know but on FRiday night I was served utter crap straight in bin check out the grease on the plate just gross!

Visité recientemente para una celebración de cumpleaños familiar. A pesar de ser pequeños, están bien atendidos y se encargaron de todo. El servicio fue estupendo, muy rápido y muy educado. Había un gran menú para elegir y todos los platos eran fantásticos. Llegaron rápidamente, estaban calientes y sabían muy bien. No hay inconvenientes.

Decidimos comer en la cocina balti. Hace muchos años estuve aquí por última vez con un amigo que lo recomendó. La comida era encantadora, poppadoms, peshwari Nan y el pollo Murgi. Muy sabroso con la cantidad justa de especias. Hay muchos restaurantes indios en Cardiff para elegir, pero me alegro de haberlo visitado.

Great time as usual at the Balti Cuisine. Mo and team are always welcoming and nothing too much trouble. I had the salmon al-kass it was delicious. Well worth a visit.

Went as a big party of 20 people for a colleagues retirement. Pre ordered all the meals but one person was poorly and could not attend, the restaurant was told this earlier in the day but the manager said we would still have to pay for this meal (even though we had all paid a £5 deposit), and he openly argued this point in front of other diners, this is not good customer service. We had booked for 7pm but was not served the main courses until 8.45 pm. I can only comment on my food but it looked like it had been left to bake and solidify and the stuffed nan was tasteless. Considering we were a large group spending a considerable amount the customer service was sadly lacking.

The food and ambience was absolutely superb - excellent. Fantastic service and delicious food. The best curry house I've ever eaten in.

Mohamed's Balti Cusine is a shining example of how people will keep coming back if you do everything right. There's always a friendly greeting at the door, everything's twinklingly clean and it always smells fantastic, which is a good sign. The poppadoms are always fresh, hot and crunchy, and the food has been consistently fantastic since I first visited over 20 years ago. There are the usual standards on the menu - Mrs Biscuits is a big fan of the Chana Dhansak, plus lots of things you don't see elsewhere. My favourite (at the moment) is the Methi Murghi with lemon rice. Mrs B and I were vegetarians for many years, and there's a great selection of vegetarian and vegan food to be had too. We've been coming here for family birthdays, family get-togethers and Saturday nights out for a very long time. There's a friendly, happy ambience to the BC, Mohamed always pops over to say hello and ask about my football team, and the food is consistently excellent. What more could you want?

Thanks again guys for being so accommodating to my vegan diet. Everything was delicious and I can’t wait to come back.

Hay una serie de buenos restaurantes de curry en Cardiff, pero la cocina balti, en mi opinión, y un gran número de la opinión de mis amigos y mi familia, simplemente la mejor.

Once again a great curry, from popadoms and chutney through starters and main course curries, FAB. It is well worth a visit here.

Stopped in by chance as we happened to be in Cardiff and passing, the service and food were fantastic, by far the nicest we have eaten in a long time if not ever.

Friday evening; filled up quickly.It is obviously a very popular restaurant. Staff are very helpful with a degree of wit and humour; made us very welcome. All the food was excellent and the Fish Biran starter was outstanding.

I visit the balti cuisine with work colleagues and no one has anything bad to say about the restaurant.

Such a good place and deservedly popular. Very good service and food excellent as ever. Chicken dansak and bhoona very tasty, lovely keema nans good atmosphere.

Un grupo (alrededor de 20) de nosotros comimos en The Balti Cuisine. La comida llegó rápidamente y estaba deliciosa, sin embargo, el servicio al cliente fue atroz. Tuve que irme temprano porque tuve que tomar un autocar y el camarero se volvió hostil y grosero cuando le pregunté si podía pagar por separado ya que todos los demás se quedaban un poco más. Se volvió grosero y alzó la voz diciendo que no me iba a permitir pagar por separado y que podía poner la factura en la mesa y que podían calcular quién debía qué. Estoy disgustado con el servicio que recibí.

He estado aquí dos veces en el último mes y la comida y el servicio han sido fantásticos. Decidimos pedir una comida para llevar esta noche qué decepción servicio grosero al hacer el pedido por teléfono un pan Nan y una parrilla tandoori mixta sin cordero tikka qué experiencia diferente. Probablemente lo pensaría dos veces antes de regresar.

Have eaten here many times has to be one of the best curry restaurants in Cardiff if not the best food always great. Attentive and friendly staff and great atmosphere always make you feel welcome. Would throughly recommend you will not be disappointed.

Always an excellent place to eat. Amazing Atmosphere, Amazing service and Amazing food...

This has to be the best curry house in Cardiff. Had Pulled Chicken Madras and rice, very tasty indeed. Great atmosphere and customer service, thanks guys we will be back.

Yet another great visit to the Balti cuisine woodville rd, Food as always great , staff always welcoming and friendly can’t fault it that’s why it’s always full of repeat customers , Well done we will be back

Had a wonderful night there! Super friendly service and you can literally choose any food. Everything tastes great (especially the ‘Chefs Recommendations’)! Also, fair prices and 10% off for students take-aways. Totally clean restaurant with a welcoming atmosphere. A wide range of people (age+nationalities) go there. Couldn’t think of any improvement!! Found my new favourite restaurant in Cardiff!

I often come here with my girlfriend, we really enjoy the food especially the peshwari naan. The restaurant has a lovely atmosphere to match, would highly recommend.

this is a wonderful restaurant and in a good location with fabulous food and good selection of drinks friendly staff food out of this world I just love the sizzling beef, the meet in wonderful cooked to perfection and the sauce is fabulous the starters of Mo Mo's were fabulous and the whole meal is out of this world

The foods is always amazing. Value for money. The staff are really friendly and helpful. If your not sure what you want, tell them what you fancy and they will make it for you.

Visited tonight and the meal was of the highest standard. I have never had a poor meal in this restaurant. The staff are welcoming and attentive. Great place to eat, my favourite is the Chicken Bhoona top quality chicken. Cannot praise enough. Excellent value for money.

Everything seemed fine, decor OK, staff attentive, all ordered our meals and being a vegetarian for the past 30 years I ordered an aubergine curry. When the mains came it all seemed fine until I bit into what I thought was a large aubergine chunk to find out it was chicken! I immediately called the waiter who admitted it was his mistake and they'd get me the correct curry. When the correct food finally came everyone else had finished eating. The aubergine curry was OK but overall experience was not the best and when I said to the staff that I was not happy there was no offer of recompense and they didn't seem bothered. My partner and her friend couldn't eat all their food so asked if they could box this up to take home but the waiter said it was £1 per box and £1 for a bag to put them in to which we refused to pay for as that was extortionate especially as under the circumstances my food was totally wrong and I basically ate alone. After a discussion with manager they did finally decide to discount my meal and the box and bag charges. Will not visit this restaurant ever again.

We’ve visited as a large group on a few occasions and the food, service and prices are excellent. This time I had Methi Chicken which was delicious!

Dropped in here with my son after a rugby match - hadn't booked in advance - and the staff were very welcoming. Food was some of the best I've had and it was very reasonable at about £20 a head. The table of regulars on the next table were certainly singing its praises.

Had another visit to the Balti Cuisine. Food was as good as it has always been. All the staff are just great and friendly. Portions are great. The paneer tikka is awesome

Agree with other comments, best curry house in Cardiff. Staff absolutely fantastic, & after many visits have never had a bad meal. The Dazzling Lamb dish is well recommended.

Fantastic restaurant, Food delicious as usual. Staff all warm and friendly. Best curry house in Cardiff

Best curry in cardiff by far Great staff great food great value Very relaxed atmosphere ....... ..................... .. .. ......

Outstanding Restaurant !...the food is first class ,such a friendly atmosphere with great staff.Highly recommended .

Balti Cuisine is by far one of the best curry houses in Cardiff. The food is delicious and the staff and beyond friendly and accommodating. They can’t do enough for you and it’s fantastic value for money! I’ve visited many Indian restaurants in Cardiff however Balti Cuisine are on another level! Food HEAVEN!
