The Burj at the Bell in West Overton in Bath and North East Somerset

On a visit to family in the area found that our usual Resturant Zafike had close, This was Resturant was recommended and didn’t fail.We ordered a take away last minutes and Ivcollected .Very pleasant helpful stall on phone and at Resturant.As for the meals themself A1in quality and quantity Nann bread huge and to die for in taste Very reasonably priced Excellant Highly Recommended a little gem hidden away in the countryside

Went in for a meal a week ago with the whole family, food was decent, but the experience was terrible, the waiter named Ali tall guys (said he was the manager) was flirting with my 14 year old, she looks older for her age, so my wife him not to that, he understood and apologised and I thought that was it, my wife later tells me that she had to ask him a couple more times, once while I was in the rest room and when I went outside for a smoke, she didnt tell me this till I got home, I tried calling the restaurant twice to speak to the owner but he is never in so I'm leaving this review, beware... I won't be going back

The attentive service was first class and the food delicious. A really professional outfit and it is to be thoroughly recommended.

We’re always so happy with the food, drinks and service at the Burj. The food is always stunning and so many gin choices! There are roadworks around the restaurant at the moment but we took the back roads to get there and the lovely guy who took our payment even thanked us for making the effort to come over which was so lovely. We’ll be back soon!

Another great evening " Elvis Tribute". Fantastic restaurant, food as always was delicious. " Elvis " was great, my friend and I had a great time. Thanks Ali and his team, all very professional. My partner and I go to the Burj most wk ends, we love it.

First time visit The Burj phoned to see if we would change our booking for an earlier sitting which was no problem. When we arrived it was what are you doing here now Everything was rushed my wife was still eating her poppadoms when her plate was whipped away. Food was tasty but we felt we were a hindrance and they wanted the table. 1 hour from arriving to leaving Put a £10 tip down and the main waiter rushed over and pocketed it he was like lightning.

We were staying in the area and visited the Burj twice, excellent food and service from the staff. If we return to the area we will visit again.

Fantastic, great food, wide choice, polite and helpful staff. Top draw and will return very soon. The location is excellent too.

A really great experience at an Elvis night with a large group of friends a fixed menu offering but all the dishes were well presented and enough variety for each course the music was great and a chance to do some dad dancing can't thank Ali and his team enough We will be back for the next one

We’ve just had the most delicious meal here this evening. A night out just me and my husband (rare occurrence as usually have our 3 children with us). So expectations high for a nice evening out. The welcome, setting and service were all great. The food was delicious (we have eaten regularly in our other local curry houses in and around Marlborough and this was by far the best). I had the chicken Shashlik which was really very good. Portions very generous and overall very good value for money. Only one red wine sold by the glass which didn’t appeal to me but the kind waiter sorted this out and offered me a different wine. Can’t wait to return. Thankyou!!!

I had heard such amazing things about The Burj from friends & decided to go for a treat with family. The service was good and although the curry was very well spiced the meat was dry. After discussing this with the manager, he advised the chicken was boiled and I should have had the lamb. An expensive visit and will not be returning.

We usually would go to have Indian food within Swindon but taking the advise of my friend we went out of the way to the burj at the bell West Overton. It’s one of the best decisions me made by going there, the food is amazing and the staff service is fantastic. It has a great atmosphere and good view to sit outdoors as well.. highly recommend this place

Went for an early evening meal with our brother from Germany. Started with drinks in the garden and then our meal. The starters were beautifully presented and the mains would fill the biggest appetites, in fact they kindly gave us containers to take home what we could not eat. The quality of their food was its usual excellent quality and the flavours just heaven. Our brother said he had not eaten such delicious food like this. By the time we left at 8pm it was really starting to fill up so I’d recommend booking in advance for a Friday night. Thank you to the chefs and everyone front of house who made our dinner so enjoyable

Absolutely delicious lunch for Mothers day. Got quite busy, but service was spot on... well done Ali & all of his team. Can't fault this place.

Really good curries, all with individual flavours. Bindi not on the menu but they were very happy to provide it when we asked. I think it will become our go to curry house as the one in Calne is not very good. Good customer service too. They just need to get bottles of tomato juice in stock so I can have a Bloody Mary! Great place.

The Burj offer a lunchtime meal for £15.99 a head so we thought we’d give it a try. (The usual menu is also available but there is so much to chose from on the lunch menu) We started with onion bahjis and a mixed ‘kebab’ plate and they were delicious. The presentation and garnish was amazing. Nexts I had the Burj Special Chicken which had succulent pieces cooked in a creamy gravy with slices of mushroom. My husband had the Chilli Garlic Chicken which came in a thick sauce and was just as delicious. I can’t eat sauces that are too hot but this had the warmth without being overly hot. I’d certainly choose it. We shared a pilau rice and a large garlic naan bread. A few glasses of Cobra beer washed it down perfectly. All the food is freshly cooked to order. The service was exemplary as usual (this being our second visit) and the restaurant very clean and welcoming. There is free parking alongside the restaurant and it’s all on a flat level making it accessible for people with mobility restrictions. The meal came to just over £40 for us both but considering the quality of the food and the size of the portions it was excellent value for money and I can honestly say we did not come out hungry. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough if you are looking for a high class Indian meal. We will definitely be returning to try more deliciousness from the menu.

The waiter called Deepak was very helpful, to make sure we enjoyed our meal. He was polite even though I'm a bit fussy and ask lots of questions. The 2 course lunchtime menu is good value. Food is presented like fine dining. I couldn't eat it all and they let me take the rest home. Nice countryside pub location on the A4. Had a drive around the historical sites after such as West Kennet Longbarrow and Silbury Hill, so an enjoyable day.

What an improvement ! Ali and his team have turned this pub around ! Had 5 meals to date including Christmas Day 2023 Food and service is totally amazing Definitely a favourite place to eat Best restaurant!

Since their fantastic opening we have been regular returners for restaurants meals (including Christmas Day); take-outs and home deliveries. We have never been disappointed. The quality of the food maintains its high standard and we have now tried dishes from across their extensive menu; tonight I had Mother Chicken for the first time a very rich chiken dish maybe not quite as hot (spicy) as I would personally like but tasty very very tasty! Everying thing is clean and well managed the staff are attentive but not overly so. Congratulations must go to Ali and his team and we will be back to celebrate their first anniversary anprobably several times in between. Keep up the good work.

On arrival I went to the bar area witch i was the only person in there and waited for service after 10 minutes I called out but no one come out after another 10 minutes a member of staff came out and walked out to the car park without even speaking to me then I left the place as it looked like I was not going to get served. Tony @ west overton.

The most delicious Indian food we’ve ever eaten. Four of us went for my birthday meal and the choice of food and the quality of our dishes was unbeatable. They don’t skimp on the portions and as for the presentation - wow. The staff were excellent and the restaurant a delight to dine in. Can’t wait to go back and try more deliciousness. Thank you Noor and your team.

First time visit and enjoyed. Have already made reservation for New Years Day 2024. Food of good quality, well presented and plentiful. All reasonably priced. Very attentive staff. Menu very good,not quite Atol Kucher but far better than the average "Indian" menu designed for the brits.

We went for dinner as a table of 5. The food was tasty and reasonably priced, the best part was both our children (aged 4 and 9) enjoyed their meals (korma and chips) just as much as the adults did. The paneer was particularly good. Our 9 year old wanted to write her own review: I think that the food was INCREDIBLE I enjoyed it so much. Thank you.

Fantastic night at the burj. Well looked after by Ali and his team. The food is top end Indian and was given a great recommendation by the waiter. Best Indian in Wiltshire.

What an improvement ! Ali and his team have turned this pub around ! Had 5 meals to date including Christmas Day 2023 Food and service is totally amazing Definitely a favourite place to eat Best restaurant!

What a fantastic meal out on Elvis night! The atmosphere was great fun and the food was exceptional. All the staff were so friendly and attentive, nothing was too much trouble. We would struggle to go anywhere else because we don’t feel you can better going here. Thank you Ali and all the staff.

Booked for 1930 on a Saturday and the car park was absolutely full, luckily we were getting dropped off. Service was great - the table was almost ready for us (the place was packed) and after a couple of minutes getting our drinks at the bar (good selection of beers including Cobra and Kingfisher but also Madri) we were shown through. Really interesting menu - all the standard curries on there but some excellent and very different specials. I had the Garlic Chilli King Prawns which came with a sticky marinade and a light gravy served on the side, others went for a Jalfrezi and a Dansak both of which were also really great. Couple of sides - really nice Tarka Dahl, and a Sag bhajee which was also great. With a few pints each, starters and pappadums it came to just over £40 a head, so slightly pricier than a standard curry house in town but the food is definitely more sophisticated.

Booked to eat at 1900 at the Burj at the Bell last night. They rang during the day and put us back to 1930 as they were busy, which was fine. We turned up a little early and found the car park full, people parked on the main road and the side road blocked by parking. Luckily after about 15 minutes, someone come out so we grabbed a space. Went into the restaurant and told to “wait at the bar with the others”. Didn’t ask our names to check booking. After a while we asked how long it would be and were told 20 minutes for a table and then at least 45 minutes for the food. We would have been eating at maybe 2100, having booked for 1900. I’m pleased a local business is busy: the food is good and they deserve to be successful. But it would seem they are squeezing too many covers in and totally ignoring bookings. There’s little point booking if it means nothing. Because the food is good I would still go back, but not on a Friday or Saturday. As it happens we had an excellent take away instead from the Indian in Ellendune. The staff were very friendly too and we had an interesting chat about the Quran, which is a subject I am largely ignorant of. #greedyreataurants #burjrestaurant

We chose Marlborough as a good halfway meeting point, travelling from Oxfordshire and Trowbridge respectively. The pub we had chosen only took cash. We therefore drove around the local area looking for somewhere that was open on a Tuesday and stumbled upon this lovely restaurant....

Another absolutely delicious lunchtime meal, 100% quality food and service. My partner and I have eaten here several times...and will most definitely be going back. If you haven't tried this restaurant you really must, you won't be disappointed.

Welcoming Staff accommodated our late booking, despite being busy on a Friday evening. Food was Superb. Possibly the best Indian food that I have tasted. We will visit again soon

Delicious food, fresh and full of flavour. Plenty of vegan options on the menu, and accepted five of us as walkins. Open on a Sunday evening.

The Best Indian restaurant I have ever been to. Unbelievable food. Outstanding in every respect! Absolutely, utterly delicious.

Best Indian restaurant for miles. Great food, exciting menu, lovely setting, wonderful service. Highly recommend.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. I don’t know if I made the wrong menu choice but my dinner was disappointing unfortunately. Everything else was great, the service, the atmosphere and the portion sizes. I will try again but will be choosing a different...

It is a lovely restaurant. The food is outstanding, fresh, fragrant with good size portions. We found the menu innovative and exciting. The staff are friendly, polite, professional. Good parking.

Easy to book. Great welcome and very professional staff. Lots to choose from on the menu and served quickly & piping hot. Good value wine as well. Will definitely be returning.

Sadly I found the curry tast of chilli which overwhelmed the other spices the chicken was dry and overcooked. The restaurant was clean and tidy the young waiter friendly and polite. I was a little concerned a service charge was taken without being notified or...

The staff were so polite and nice. The food was absolutely delicious, I highly recommend trying their paneer. Overall the atmosphere was also just really nice and relaxing

First visit, and not the last. A warm welcome, efficient and friendly service. Truly great food with generous portions. Both the food and wine reasonably priced. Highly recommend.

Excellent service & lovely food. We booked today for a business lunch for four. I ordered the Goan Fish Curry with salmon. This team knows how to run a restaurant. Highly recommended!

Did you know that in Bangkok and Asia they have two types of Indian? British Indian restaurants and normal Indian restaurants? The former is for Brits that don't think they've had a curry unless their mouth is burning. I like an aromatic curry and it...

Food was ok/fine but no better than anywhere else locally we have tried. Service was mediocre felt rushed and also didn’t like the fact the waiters only spoke to my husband, I felt invisible felt very sexist and outdated. Chairs also very uncomfortable rock hard...

Been here twice to the newly open curry restaurant/bar the food on both occasions have been great I would recommend garlic chilli chicken or lamb the service has been better than most places I have been lately a lot of restaurants could take note definitely...

We had a fabulous meal. The menu is very extensive. The service was excellent, and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. Will certainly be returning soon.

Drove past this place on the way to Avebury. Looked it up, discovered it was an Indian restaurant and did deliveries and take away. We decided to try it. We went there thinking as it was a Thursday in May and they've only been open...

Made a point of visiting in the first week of opening after have have excellent meals at there sister restaurant in Swindon (Foxhill). We were not dissaponted the food was excellantneither of was dissapointed in our selections from an extensive menu; trying new dishes and...
