We visited tonight and had one of the best Indian meals we have ever had. The Kashmir curry with banana was amazing whilst the lamb rogon josh was as good as we had at the veraswamy in London last week. We highly recommend this restaurant and the staff were very friendly to boot.

I’ve been to countless Indian restaurants over the last 40 years and Latif is without doubt one of the best, if not THE best. I love the decor. It’s spotlessly clean. Service is excellent. The proprietors are lovely. The prices are reasonable. Good location. Best of all, the food is just perfect. It’s nothing fancy but delicious, freshly cooked and really flavoursome. My lamb Madras was really tender and the sauce was rich and warming, but not too hot. Latif sets the standard which all Indian restaurants should aspire to. I’ve been three times over the last year and will be going again soon…….can’t wait.

We had the Sunday Special menu, which was very good value. Albeit this review is more about the quality of the food, my tester dishes for review are the prawn purée and lamb jalfrezi both were excellent. The building and ambiance were also superb. Give it a go

This is a very good Indian restaurant, have been to numerous ones over the years but this was very good. The Bangladeshi specials we had were great. Service was fantastic and it was nice to visit somewhere without purple lighting and trying to be modern. Great food.

So normally I go to Shampan in Whitley Bay but after discovering this place last month, I have changed to this place. Ate in twice and both times the food has been incredible, please don't let the interior put you off as it does look outdated and their music is played on a TV with YouTube on but genuinely if you can look past that, you'll eat the nicest food.

We wanted a traditional British Indian restaurant meal and were not disappointed. Pleasant ambience in the dining area. All the favourites available at decent prices (especially with the Thursday specials, which contained all the items that I would have ordered anyway from the a la carte). Friendly staff. Good location near the railway station. If in Newcastle again we would visit this restaurant again.

Visited here after a show at the life centre on a Wednesday evening. Initially quiet but picked up as the evening went on. What an absolute gem of a restaurant. The gentleman who served us was brilliant. We have favourite dishes from our hometown restaurant, we explained what they were and he pointed out in his menu which were similar. Both these dishes were absolutely gorgeous. One was a lamb Jal Masala. I can't remember the name of mine. Arrived piping hot with garlic rice, keema naan and chips. All really lovey and cooked to perfection. Forgot to mention the chicken puree and bhaji for starters, also excellent. The restaurant was spotless and the staff lovely. We just wish it was closer so it could be our regular place!

Spending a few days in Newcastle so had to have a curry one evening. Looking at trip advisor there were so many to choose from but we decided on Latif as it was on the way back to our hotel. It was early evening so it was very quiet but the food was absolutely brilliant. Best Madras I've had in a long time. Staff were fantastic as well. I would definitely recommend this place.

My wife and I went here on a Tuesday evening at about 8:30 pm. It was very quiet but the food was excellent. I had a lamb madras. The meat was really tender and the sauce just the right level of heat. My wife had a vegetable dish which she loved. The restaurant is very clean and well furnished. We both are looking forward to going back to this restaurant soon.

Well, having read loads of reviews, I decided to give Latif a go. What a master stroke that was. Great eating environment, friendly and helpful staff. The toilets were spotless. There was clearly a lot of pride here. Now the food - just perfect and lots of it. Had my routine meal when I'm out which is poppodoms, onion bhaji, chicken Vindaloo, rice and Nan. The food was perfect and big portions. I rolled out of there. The curry was very hot how a Vindaloo should be and a big shout out to the Aloo Nan. When I go back to Newcastle, I won't try anywhere else - I'm a convert.

What a lovely place! We dined here on 13 Aug 2022 while we were on a mini break from Scotland. Spotlessly clean, crisp white table linen. Beautiful. The staff are so nice and very attentive and gave big beaming smiles when we complimented them on the cuisine! Hubby had chicken Karachi which had a lovely balance of spices. Hot, but not overly so. I had the passanda with chicken and it was the creamiest, dreamiest passanda ever! We accompanied our meals with rice and peshwari naan, both of which were scrummy! We both agreed they were among the best curries we have ever tasted. Again, we can’t compliment the staff enough. Such a fab dining experience! Highly recommended!

It was my first time in Newcastle so can't describe the location too well. It's not far from the station and was actually recommended to us by a bouncer at a local pub. What a recommendation. Quite simply THE best curry I've ever had. Such a lovely venue, immaculate everywhere. The table cloths and serviettes were so lovely crisp and fresh I felt bad at the end of the meal when we had got a couple of stains on them. Staff are very welcoming. We hadn't booked but we were greeted with warmth and enthusiasm. Service was very good, quick, caring but not overbearing in any way. What can I say about the food other than oh my goodness absolutely amazing! I'm veggie and sometimes dishes are a bit underwhelming. Not at Latifs. Everything I had was amazing. The portions were huge and it beat both me and my hubby! We couldn't eat everything. I would like to say thank you to this lovely gem and the people who own it for your warm welcome and exceptional food. Five out of five, higher if I could.

First time (and last time) here with friends. The service was ridiculously slow. Took them an hr just to get us drinks and they somehow only took orders from half the table and neglected the other half. Placing orders was just chaotic. Had to repeatedly flag the waiters with what we wanted for food and drinks. They kept missing drinks and starters. Took them 2 hours to get the mains out and some people on our table still didn't have their mains. They also missed multiple sides. Food was also very bland. My chicken tikka masala was bright neon red which indicated high use of food colouring. The other people on our table also said they've defs had a better Indian elsewhere. Even a supermarkets takeout is better than this. At least food only takes a few minutes in the microwave and tastes better. They again took forever to work out the bill. They were so so slow, we ended up paying at the counter. Don't think we'll be back.

I’ve tried so many Indian restaurants and takeaways but none of them compare to Latifs so now I don’t bother going elsewhere. Been going here for years and recommend it to everyone, never once had any complaints. Delicious food, great service (especially from the lady in Indian dress), good portions and lovely drinks. Parking is slightly annoying but that’s the fault of NCC not the restaurant. Easy bus links so can have a drink. Do not hesitate in visiting here.

I have two really awful experiences with this restaurant.Whilst I admit the quality of the food is good, not brilliant my issues have both been with service.The first time was taken to a table then completely forgotten about, despite me asking if I could see the menu. After 30 minutes I stood up told the people the service was shocking and left.The second time I decided to order a take away. After chasing my order for nearly 3 hours I eventually had a response via chat which was followed by a call some while later that basically said that our order had been forgotten about and would be delivered soon. At this point I said not to bother and just refund the payment.Feeling very disappointed and upset, I am very fair and honest and try to give people the benefit of the doubt but will never go back here.

Reserved a table here last week to catch up with some friends whilst I was in town on business.The place was quiet, so not really any need to reserve - but being a first time visit I played safe I guess.Arrived for a little after 20:30 last Tuesday, the three of us had a nice big round table in the corner waiting for us.We ordered a couple of 600ml Kingfisher Premium bottled beers to start us off, along with a couple of papadums each + pickle tray.Starters we ordered vegetable samosas, and two portions of onion bahjis. These came out in a little over ten mins and were cooked just perfectly. Mains we ordered a chicken madras, a chicken vindaloo, and a vegetarian coconut/cream/cauliflower curry (to which the name I cannot remember!), a keema naan bread, and a couple of pilau rices between us - and a couple more beers.Our mains came about ten mins after our clean plates from the starters had gone, and again, everything was spot on.My chicken madras was cooked bang on for me - the chicken was soft and tender, the sauce clean & fresh. My friends seemed equally as happy with theirs as well.Total bill came to about £80 - we left a cash tip on top, I'd pay that again for sure, and probably will when I'm next in the Toon!Keep up the great work, food & service Latif!

This restaurant is only a five minute walk from the main station in Newcastle. It has a bar area, separate from the dinning room. Alas, the latter was empty on a Sunday evening at 8pm. I had been enticed in by the sign outside offering a special "meal deal". It proved remarkable value, at £9.95 for a poppadum and pickles, onion bhagi and salad, medium lamb curry, pilau rice and half a pint of lager.The service was very good, welcoming, helpful and efficient. The dinning room is smartly decorated and has proper table cloths and napkins. The meal was tasty, the lamb being particularly tender (although my curry was only mildly spicy, so perhaps I will go or a hotter version next time). I felt very full by the end of the meal and left a very happy customer!

Staff very friendly, place is very clean and I love that they have Bollywood songs playing on the tv as it’s quite fun too watch.I had the beef madras which was one of the best versions I’ve ever tasted. Was just what I fancied. Beef was tender and melted in you pr mouth.My friend doesn’t like food that’s too spicy, but normally only mild dishes Indian restaurants have is korma or butter chicken. This place had a good selection of mild curries, I can’t remember the one she ordered but she loved it and said it was good to get to try something different and new.Only thing I would of liked better is if the garlic naan bread wasn’t so dry as I love it dripping with garlic butter, but it’s not very good for you that way I suppose lol.I would come back to Newcastle just to go to this Indian!

Highly recommended and excellent value. Visited recently with a group of 20 work colleagues, receiving a friendly welcome and first class service throughout. A fine building and impressive cozy surroundings. A simple cash payment only Sunday and Thursday special menu offers plenty of choice with impressive portions; something for even the fussiest of eaters. Seek out this gem and spread the word - you won't be disappointed, whether as a group or a couple. Handy for Central Railway Station/Metro, good pubs and entertainment venues too.

Ate here recently with a group of people from work and really wish I’d found this gem sooner! Food was delicious and very reasonably priced, and staff were friendly, attentive and funny. Will definitely be coming back here with more friends and family. Thanks for a great night!

Visited here last Wednesday evening, the warmest of welcome, followed by the best Indian meal in Newcastle.

A last minute choice for food before going to the arena. Lovely restaurant and friendly staff. Excellent food and quick service when we explained we were short for time! Will go back and spend longer next time!

Upon arriving at the place I immediately noticed a very strong pungent smell of burnt oil and also the place was empty except for 2 other tables which should have been a warning. However with it being 10.30pm we Werent sure if anywhere else would be open so we took a table.I can honestly and without a single word of eggaxeration say that both the starter and main course was the worst food I have ever tasted in my life. Both meals had a pungent taste of burnt oil (the same smell that the whole place stankof)Before we had even finished the main course I had to dash to the toilet where I was violently sick for over 20 minutes. I cannot recall ever being as violently sick like that in my life.Whilst in the toilet a fellow diner came in and heard me throwing up and said he too felt sick and that the food was disgusting.I left in a taxi which had to stop 4 times on the way home so I could be sick again and I have been up all night throwing up and I have been ill all day & I really mean I've been ill.I hate to write bad reviews but if your serving food as bad as that to the public then you need a reality check. You could kill someone. My biggest regret is not taking a sample to hand in to the environmental health at the local council.So my conclusion is this: The Place literally stunk of burnt cooking oil and that's all the food tasted of, baring in mind its an Indian so the food is full of spices anyway. No eggaxeration this was the worst and most disgusting food I have ever tasted in my life.If your the owner reading this then I make no apologies for this scathing review as you seriously need a reality check on the garbage your serving as food. I would seriously look at getting a new chef because if that's his quality of food then he should try a different occupation.

I came in late, after work and ordered a meal for one. The price was great for the quality of food. I ordered take out, chicken tikka chilli masala, spicy chips and tikka & garlic nan. It was delicious and there was a lot of good quality chicken, I couldn't eat it all. I would definitely go back :-)

Was greeted with a smile and the service was excellent, food was also really nice too. Would happily recommend to friends, seems very family friendly. Only good place for a late night weekend curry!

Buscando una noche tarde probamos Latifs curry (la mayoría de los lugares a 11 especialmente en fin de semana). Primeras impresiones; enorme, vacío y extraño. Decoración restaurante Camarero parecía vagamente desinteresado pero expresó su sorpresa no queríamos empezar. La comida es aceptable, pero muy caro para la calidad.Esta fue una experiencia decepcionante y nos fuimos decepcionados y nada contenta.Necesita mejorar como latifs hay alternativas mejores cerca.

En vacaciones en Newcastle, queríamos una comida india, cerca de la estación de metro. Latifs reúne los requisitos.La comida es excelente.Vino de mala calidad.Decoración rara.Pesimo servicio de camareros. . . . . El camarero sobre nosotros durante nuestra hovvered comida, era realmente desagradable y aunque la comida era estupenda, el camarero era la única cosa que arruinó nuestra noche.Sólo 3 partidos en mientras estuvimos allí, a pesar de ser un partido (por la noche) enun grupo grande, nosotros 2, y un grupo de 3 o 4.Gran Comedor, decoración era aceptable si no es un poco extraño, no era auténtico.Lo suficientemente limpia.

Acabo de visitar este establecimiento por segunda vez en los últimos meses. La comida era mala, el camarero tenía problemas y encima de todo la factura para cuatro de nosotros fuimos a 92 libras y mi amigo dijo que visitar split 50 / 50 en la tarjeta cargará £50. Cargo cuestionado y nos dieron vuelta la diferencia. Normalmente dejar una propina del 10% pero no en esta ocasión. Si vas por favor compruebe su factura.

Me apareció en una comida, a las principales quickish y keema nan. Todo estaba bien, de calidad y agradable. Tres estrellas porque es un sitio con un restaurante adjunto. Me pareció buena atención personal popadoms crujientes y encurtidos mezclados muy bien. Campo principal era cordero balti. Estaba claramente recién preparado y muy agradable. Keema nan hicieron el trabajo. No arroz porque me es demasiado.Volvería, no hay problema, ya que me dieron lo que pedí, y esperaba, aunque estaban un poco sorprendido de que no quería un plato o arroz.

No recibieron en la entrada, el camarero simplemente se miraban. Pedimos una mesa, hombros y recogió un par de menús y se fue.Pedimos una copa de vino y un agua, vino, pero una pinta de agua del grifo con hielo en vez de agua.Menú grande, algo confusa demasiados platos realmente.Los platos principales eran bastante promedio, salsas eran muy soso, realmente nada para morirse. Se podía ver que había sido un simple nan dabbed con mantequilla de ajo para intentar hacer un nan de ajo, de mala calidad.Restaurante grande, agradable entorno pero sólo le hace falta en algo, sólo 10 personas en el pico de tiempo en un sábado por la noche.No visitar de nuevo.

Aparecimos como era tan sólo dos otros apertura comer pero parece el lugar limpio y atractivo, los inodoros estaban impecables. Pedimos unos tragos y algunos poppadoms con una bandeja pickle, que era bueno. Sólo tuvimos platos principales y el pollo Bhuna era muy, muy bueno y lleno de grandes piezas de pollo. Un plato bien preparado, mis amigos tikka masala era buena si no un poco a de sauce. Con acompañamientos de la comida era 30 libras bastante razonable, por lo que se lo recomienda!

Llegamos al restaurante y sentado rápidamente y estaba bastante vacío. Servicio rápido para tomar bebidas y pedir comida. Plato principal llegó, una olla de basura en la base cubiertas con el plato "llamado". No es un plato recién preparado. Me ofrecieron otra copa, que pedí pero personal conectaban alrededor había postre o café. Evitaría este en el futuro.

Went to Latif's with work colleagues. Whilst you get a fair amount of food, the quality wasn't great. Very bland and the service was shocking slow. The central location was the only really plus point about the visit. Won't be visiting there again.

Fui anoche con un grupo de amigos. Restaurante no estaba lleno, pero tomó unos 30 minutos hasta que nos llevaron a nuestra mesa y esta mesa había sido vacío cuando llegamos. No se podía contar al tomar nuestra orden de bebidas, así que no es un buen comienzo. Terminó el plato que presentamos más de 90 minutos después de la llegada. Bromeé en la mesa podría haber manejado a casa a Leeds en el tiempo que había tomado. Si hubiera sido yo con mi pareja nos hubiéramos ido antes de que nos llevaron a la mesa, ya que el servicio, pero como estábamos con un grupo nos sentimos que nos teníamos que quedar.La comida era de alta calidad, pero el servicio y la velocidad Así que veamos en este lugar.
