The Bengal in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Astounded to receive a King prawn dish with sauce but only a few bits of cut up prawns. Vegetables not any better only a few small stalks of cauliflower. Unbelievably brazen customer rip off these robbers think they can get away with on delivery because you can't complain!

Very welcoming and attentive staff. Delicious meal!

Good service and good food. Food is tasty worth try for. Staff is really nice.

Amazing food and the best service. Really great job for serving us the best indian food

Its the best local Indian restaurant in the area. Really nice food. Happy with the delivery time. Thank you

We are local people who live in the area...I would recommend 10/10 in all areas....loverly company treat u like family....

Hearty and tasty dishes. The owner is very friendly!

The best Asian food in London. I've been going there for 38 years! The staff are professional, efficient and friendly and the food is truly delicious.

This chicken vindaloo was spicy and also tasty! Also, the service was kind and polite to me when I first came to this restaurant and the staff also understood I was Bengali (Sylheti), as my origin is Bangladesh.

One of the Indian cuisines we recommend is from a family specialist who has suggested some dishes made with seafood. I recommend you try their food; they are very friendly.

Delicious food can’t go wrong with with the price! Staff are friendly and helpful

Have been ordering for years. Nice tasty food!

This food is very good nice curry very good price good portions beautiful flavours

The main chef must be on a holiday. Below par dishes. Need huge improvements.

This place is amazing! Lots of staff members admire me a lot. It seems that many people are missing out on the best dishes!

Went there while on our trip and was hesitant as I’m intolerant to lactose and wasn’t sure how my options would be. After being seated it was a very lovely atmosphere, such friendly service and always helpful! As I was asking questions about the dish and my intolerances the waiter laughed and said “anything is possible!”. I felt very well taken care of and would highly recommend coming here. It’s quite small but absolutely worth it! Will come back next time I’m in London :)

Don’t overthink your decision - just go there and enjoy. Fair prices for good food

The food is beautiful and delicious, but there is someone sitting in my frying pan and asking us

Best indian take away we have had in a long time. will be ordering again for sure.

Fabulous food, and wonderful service. I have used this restaurant for years (takeout and eating in) and they are exceptional. Great quality of food, and very reasonable prices. Thank you!

The food is delicious and always has been since the 1980s. ...................... ................... ....

Excellent place. Nice, quiet, genuine Indian restaurant; very good food and just around the corner from Royal Oak tube station. Having returned several times after the above was submitted, because the service is excellent and so is the food; I always try to go here when I am in London and will see you soon. More trips to the Bengal, not only by myself, but with my electrical apprentice whilst working in London and another work colleague a day or so later, both loved the food and service; I will be working in London with my apprentice soon and the first question he had, was, "are we going to The Bengal"?...Says it all.

Come and enjoy vegetarian food with good restaurants and food and more options at the most affordable prices

Very good as usual:). Recommend the coconut rice:).

Wanted to take the family for authentic Indian while in London. Bengal did not disappoint. Took house recommendations on ordering - chicken tikka Marsala, chicken Balti, chicken biryani, and lamb curry and added cheese Nan bread. Our server was fantastic. Talked us through heat levels (2 teens) and even cobra beer over kingfisher. Will recommend to friends who come to london. 4/5 on atmosphere is not a knock. Just nothing extra ordinary. But don't let that affect your decision to eat at this delicious place!

Really nice will definitely order again Marie.

Definitely my favourite place, that I have already visited many times. I would like to mention a very high quality of all products and especially meet. The portions are very big , so I always take food takeaway, which render my each visit very abundant. At the same time, the price is wonderful, not overpriced! Thank you to the Bengal and all workers and owner, for taking care out of clients.

Best Indian restaurant in West London. Brilliant service. Lovely food. Would have given 5 stars but they have stopped serving choccie mints which we all miss. Bring them back! Xx

Literally best place ever!! You are missing out if you don’t come here

lovely food lovely service lovely place. very very hospitable service and Ali is very kind. will be back many more times :)

Excellent food and staff, love it!

My fav spot for a dam good curry! Also the staff top notch! Shout out to Ali!

When I am in London I try to go to The Bengal if I can, because the food and service is very good and so is the price. I was working in London for several days (05/03/2024) and took a fussy friend here; he liked the food very much that a second visit was required. On the Saturday I was back up in London with on of my bosses for a Millwall game and went to the Bengal before we got our train back to Bristol; we both enjoyed our meals and the service was friedly and efficent as always. Thank you Bengal and see you soon...

Delicious, fresh, and authentic Indian food. very much recommended.

Always polite and have been going for years they are like family

Excellent! Warm and friendly.... Good atmosphere with efficient and polite staff. The food is delicious and the menu varied with a wide selection . Suitable for vegetarians and vegans! Very reasonable costs and special lunch box offers. Enjoyable and relaxed experience... Always feel welcome and visit often !

The family have been going here for years, and it’s always a treat. Great staff and great food

Fabulous food, great delivery (even in heavy rain!) Will definitely order again!!

Great curry house highly reccomend 👍

Ordered a chicken tikka for delivery, all I received was chunks of chicken in an orange looking korma sauce (clearly the chicken wasn’t cooked in that sauce). I will not be ordering from this place ever again.

Always delicious, fresh and quick

My favourite place. Most delicious food and excellent service! Thank you all so very much!

Good place to eat and they are really cool and nice

Friendly helpful staff and great food, I’ve been visiting the restaurant since I was little with my family too for over 30 years ❤️

The food arrived late and the curry fell out of the container and spilled all of the bag.

The best, oldest, most under-appreciated Indian restaurant in London

i been eating in this place for the last 20 years and never get wrong , food quality and service 10/10 , all the staff snd the delivery guys always taking care including the owner malik the boss great man that always lookafter clientes

We love this place, have been going for many years. Service is great, food even better

Very friendly staff and the food is amazing some of the best Indian food I’ve ever eaten

Excellent Excellent food .Hot with loads of flavour Great portion sizes .Can't fault them Consistency great food

Amazing food, quiet and nice place to hang out and dine in.

I’ve been ordering from the bengal since I moved into my place around 20 years ago. The foods has always been amazing, fast delivery and well priced, which is why we've always chose the bengal over any other Indian in our area for so long. Yesterday I ordered and the driver arrived around 40mins later, very angry claiming he had been waiting 20 min when I hadn’t had any phone calls from him and our bell hadn’t been rang once. When my mum apologised he continued to scream at her for the next 10 mins and wouldn’t let her close the door. Hearing the noise I decided to check if my mum was okay, he then started becoming very aggressive to both of us. I’m 7 months pregnant so I decided the safest thing to do was to close and lock the door despite him still shouting. Not sure what the driver was expecting to achieve with this behaviour but it was extremely uncalled for and very unprofessional. Despite loving the food and being a loyal customer for so long I won’t be ordering from the bengal again since this has happened as I don't want this man to deliver to my door again and don’t think this is acceptable way to treat your customers.

Have been coming here for a few years now great food reasonably priced great service especially from ali well worth a visit

Very cozy and intimate atmosphere for a very comfortable and delicious meal. Great service from Ali and the team, and the food is exactly what you’d want!

Requested a phone call to let me know when the food was here. Never got 1 but I got a notification saying it had been delivered so I headed straight down to the hotel lobby where I was met by a delivery driver claiming to have been there for 30 minutes and raising his voice been extremely rude asking why I hadn’t picked up the phone? he had a totally different number on the receipt to the 1 I had provided and have saved with just eat. Food was freezing cold and not edible.

Fabulous, tasty food, and all very reasonably priced. I've been eating at this restaurant for years, and it's never let me down. So pleased that it's in my postcode!

Initially asked for collect when arrived asked if I could eat in, they said sorry we packed it already, not very good customer service also asked for food to be spicy and hot, didn’t have no spice whatsoever, ended up eating on back of car in this freezing cold weather -1, they did offer me a free poppadum as they refused to let me it in on the plus side. :)

Food is always fresh tasty hot .Delivery and the at the restaurant the quality is 100%

Go here all the time and the food and service is excellent

Chicken was overcooked, peshwari barely anything within it, maybe gave me plain? Delivery driver told me to order through UberEats as the shop doesn’t deliver with JustEat?? Rang me shouting at me asking where I was, told me to go outside to describe my house, turned out he was 10 minutes away. Wouldn’t get out of his car to deliver the food I had to go to him in the rain (rang me again), then reminded me not to order through UberEats again. All that for a cold & overcooked curry

Went there looking for a curry, but left with friendship (and a great curry). Our waiter was a great guy who perfect recommendations, we will be back!

I've been going to this lovely restaurant for years and it is my favorite place for a meal in Bayswater. Food is amazing, so tasty and the service is incredible. Ali is so friendly and puts a smile on our face every time. Thanks 🙏🏻

We love this place and come here every week! Amazing food and always the most friendly service, they treat us so well here and are always happy to make great recommendations

I find it strange that two recent takeaway reviews awarded to this excellent Indian restaurant both have very low ratings. I suggest they come and actually eat in The Bengal, and they would see just how good the food is here. I have been coming here for many years and have never had a bad meal. I ordered a Chicken Tikka Naga and Pilau Rice. My sister ordered Broccoli, Spicy Dhal, and Peas Pilau Rice. The food was piping hot and beautifully cooked. The Naga sauce had a nice kick and was very spicy. The Broccoli dish, I've never seen anywhere else, tasted amazing.

GONE DOWNHILL!! I have been a customer here for many years. I will not be ordering or dining in again. The last 2 takeaways i ordered were awful. Chicken inside the plain curry was rock hard I had to spit my food out so did my 8 year old daughter. The portion sizes have got smaller over the years and less chicken pieces in the curry i could count 5 pieces of chicken in my curry. The cans of cold drinks and bottles are always warm on delivery. Sorry Bengal i will not be returning here again. You have lost a loyal customer.

Perfect for lovers of Indian food, the service is excellent and the atmosphere is spectacular. Being a small place, there are few people and it is quite cozy. The food was amazing especially the chicken tikka.

Terrible service, when I called to ask where the order was the guy just garbled a load of incoherent nonsense and wouldn't let me get a word in. No phone call or message from the delivery driver, who knows what happened to the food I ordered. I have requested a full refund

Great delivery but the food portions were smaller than I would expect for the price.

Amazing food! And very reasonably priced. Probably one of the best Indian restaurants in London

Absolutely fantastic and yummy food, and all very reasonably priced. Delivered right on time, with a nice bottle of wine. One of my all-time favourite Indian restaurants in London!

Always great food and delivery - I wouldn’t order elsewhere, Sam

Easy to order with a good selection. Prompt delivery from polite driver. Onion Bhaji starter undercooked and greasy. The korai, Korma, veg Biryani, and naan were lovely. Would use again but avoid the Bhaji.

Dependable and tasty. We love the Bengal ♡☆

Lovely little restaurant, food is always delicious, staff very attentive. No request is too small, they will happily adjust the spice level to your requirements. Look forward to going back

Very good spices. 10/10 would eat again.

Ate here for the first time when visiting with friend. High quality food with excellent service

هادىء وقريب من الهايدبارك تعشيت فيه الساعه 9:30 تقريبا بوقت لندن فيه ايدام دجاج هو اختاره لي كخيار مفضل كان جدا لذيذ👌

Food arrived early, was piping hot good portion size and tasty. Will certainly order from here again

Lovely curry, Always taste good Please bring cold bottle of coke next time on delivery. No body wants a warm cold drink with their meal. Otherwise food was excellent and good portion sizes.

If you want old style curry this is the place friendly staff very traditional restaurant warm atmosphere

Very average and quite expensive for the quality of the meat and flavour of the curry it's self. Sorry to say I won't bother again.

Best India I've had on just eat.

Excellent Excellent meal again Consistently top quality service and food .

Been going here for years vert nice food and staff always make you feel welcomed excellent value would highly recommend

Wonderful food and wonderful service.

They are incapable of delivering properly- they are so rude and make the experience of receiving your food a really bad one. The guy refused to walk 2 metres to my flat to deliver the food and left . Lots of other comments like this one. I will never order from here again and would advise you not to either. They need to learn basic manners and how to treat their paying customers with a bit of respect. And i’m ordering again and same happened when calling a restaurant he close the phone when i’m speek.

Amazing food, such a pleasurable take away experience. Loved everything. It was hot (not at all cold) perfect, and so tasty. Driver was really friendly, too. Thank you so much!!!

I have had it delivered and ate at the restaurant, and it is consistently top quality food from start to finish .Would highly recommend them

I drove 15 minutes to come to the place and there was no Shop it does not exist

I ordered lamb and rice and received 2 tiny pieces of lamb and the remainder was just rice

Perfect place , food , service and atmosphere. The best place I went to .

I hadnt had food from Here in a while and forgot how good the food tasted . Every part of my order was fresh and flavourful.Will be ordering again and again.

Food was excellent really enjoyed

Unpretentious and very good small Indian restaurant with wide selection of traditional dishes and excellent service.

Excellent restaurant :les plats sont savoureux et délicieusement parfumé. Le personnel est très agréable et à l'écoute. Nous recommandons+++

A Bayswater institution! Such lovely warm staff serving delicious food with always fresh ingredients. Will be back, of course!

I was offered dinner by my better half as it was my birthday and of the many restaurants in the local area, I chose the Bengal. Having been coming to this place for over 30 years now, I know the menu inside out and I have never had a bad experience here. The menu is varied enough in spice terms that you can safely accommodate the person who can't take a hint of heat as well as those brave enough to go for a vindaloo or hotter. We had a great meal with super service and the bill for 3 of us, with beers, was £83 - this included popadoms and chutney, starters and main course with side dishes. As usual, the generous portion sizes ensured that there was no room for desserts. Recommended and I will certainly be back.

One of my fav⭐️❤️. I'm working near by this restaurant and most of the time i eat from this restaurant. Staff and owner very respectfull and kind. Food is soo testy and i recommend paneer naga chili with chapatti which is one of my all time fav😊. you guy's should try this restaurant i'm sure u'll love it.

Burnt food tasteless chicken Ordered naga nothing was spicy Don’t order from here
