The Magna Tandoori in Northumberland

Excellent food, friendly service, never disappoints.

Came in on a Saturday Evening, it was busy, but everyone got seated quite quickly. I ordered the onion bhaji as a starter,the portions were massive, and the food was amazing.I ordered a Chicken Biryani as the main and some pilaw rice alongside with the rest of my family and we were continually surprised by the quality of the food. I also love the decorations! Happy this was my first experience of an Indian Restaurant. Definitely coming again.

Absolutely bloomin great Indian food. If you like garlic I recommend one of the garlic dishes because they bloomin taste like garlic. Brilliant stuff 👏 🇮🇳

Bought food for takeaway to our holiday accommodation. Returned to this place after enjoying it last year. Fresh, packed with flavour and a good selection to choose from. Definitely recommend.

Came here for a meal with some friends and we had a great time. Great food and brilliant service as always! Very clean and all the staff are very friendly and welcoming

Well what can I say!!! Another amazing meal, service was brilliant staff were very attentive polite and smartly dressed Would recommend a visit you will not be disappointed. Well done.

Went early evening and it was a Tuesday so little quiet But the curry was jolly good

The best place for a curry in Berwick upon Tweed! We visit every time we’re here. Fantastic service and delicious food

The fusion dish was delicious sand the jumbo prawns were really jumbo. Service was excellent.

The fusion dish was amazing. I will rave about this for a long time. My husband had very large jump prawns which were impressive.

Great food and excellent service

I use this restaurant regularly, mostly for take outs. Always good service from staff and the owner. The food is always delicious. I have food intolerances and the staff go out if their way to make sure that I am catered for

Visited here mid-Feb, and was rather disappointed given the other reviews. It is a magnificent venue, with great decor. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Service was quick, perhaps even a bit quick at places . The food though, let much to be desired. While hot and well presented, the meat content was sadly lacking and the dish padded with winter brown onions, which were largely raw and inedible. Small rice portions Even the saag aloo was short on spinach. The butter chicken was a disgrace := pretty much thin chicken bits, like you get on a sandwich, doused in what looked like a cheap jar of sauce.

The poppadoms were good. The rest of the meal was horrible, everything was the same beige colour and tasted awful. £8 for a Diet Coke and a 0% beer that took 15 mins from ordering to arrive. Waiter seemed shocked when we asked for plates to put our main courses on, seems we were expected to heap it all onto the plate the rice has arrived on. More expensive than very good 2 course lunches with drinks in other restaurants in Berwick and Alnwick.

Lovely meal out to celebrate a mates 30th! Food thoroughly enjoyed and great atmosphere! Thanks to Suleman for looking after us!

The foods been amazing here for as long as I have been alive. You’re made to feel apart of the family which makes this a special place to dine. The Magna Tandoori is my happy place! Thank you Cam W

I think this is by far the worst Indian restaurant I’ve ever been to. The decor is beyond tacky, which should have been the first red flag, but my experience told me that the gaudier a place looks, the better the food usually. Not the case. How do you mess up something as simple as a butter paneer or Daal? The mains were completely flavourless, the pilau just tasted boiled, the sauce for the butter chicken had about half a bag of sugar dumped in it and was almost inedible. Service was off, I think the servers just came off as disinterested and strangely intense at times. One half hearted attempt at a conversation was very quickly abandoned in a very awkward way. Now I’m not saying a server should smile or talk to customers, I know I don’t want to a lot of the time when I’m waitering, but if you’re going to ask a customer about their day, when they tell you about it don’t just say ‘right’ and wander off? Anyway it was kind of entering so bad it’s good territory because the whole experience was comically terrible. Did I pay for the whole thing? Did I say ‘yeah it was great’ when asked how the food was? You’re damn right I did. Because I’m terminally British and I refuse to express my true feelings to anyone and only do it behind their backs or on the internet where I can be semi-anonymous. The only thing I loathe more than the food here is myself.

Best Indian restaurant around never disappoints food always amazing and a very fast good service would highly recommend

Always a pleasure visiting my home town no.1 Indian/Bangladeshi restaurant. Have been coming here for over 40 years.

My wife and I have eaten at the Magna at least once a week over the last few months. The food is excellent, the restaurant has high standards of cleanliness and very friendly staff. Overall, a really good experience. Highly recommended!

Excellent restaurant. Great food, good service and extremely friendly staff.

Lovely food had lamb dhansak was very tasty

Lovely building, lovely staff and lovely food. We ended up going for the set meal and my wife ended up taking the rest of her meal back home as the portions were that big. Would happily go there again

Visited Berwick one mid week evening so popped in. Great service and menue. Ordered prawn dansak, chicken rogan, naan and okra with boiled rice. All absolutely stunning. Tasty and very little grease. Highly recommend.

Lovely restaurant, service very good and food delicious. We go here most Friday nights and are never disappointed it is always a wonderful culinary delight!

Have eaten in a few times and had takeaways too. Magna is a local institution and always a happy experience. Now a family favourite for us. Reliably competent food and service. Good value. Looking forward to next time.....

Excellent meal here. Food and service were exceptional. A real gem in Berwick-upon-Tweed and a mist visit for everyone!

Came here for a meal with some friends and we had a great time. Great food and brilliant service as always! Very clean and all the staff are very friendly and welcoming

The staff were great and very pleasant. The food arrived piping hot and the Lamb Bhuna was absolutely amazing! Would definitely recommend and is by far the best Indian restaurant in Berwick!

The food was gorgeous and well priced too. The service was fast and friendly !!

Came here for my boyfriend’s birthday meal and I honestly couldn’t fault anything, the food was beyond amazing, the staff were so lovely and the overall decor and atmosphere in the premises was spot on! Would highly recommend and will definitely come back 😋

We visited late on a Saturday night (about 8.15pm) and we're welcomed in enthusiasticaly. Great selection of dishes on offer and despite being late in the evening no rush to order. We ordered a curry, rice, nann and bahji each and oh my goodness. It arrived quickly and the portions were large, beauifully presented and most importantly absolutely delicious. We could not finish it all and were offered take out pots to take it home in, which we gladly did. The restaurant was beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. The staff were polite helpful and a young lady offered to take a photo of us which was very kind. The price of the food was average for a Indian meal but the quality of the floor was excellent. We shall definitely be visiting again soon.

Perfect place for a nice meal out with the family, the food was amazing, really friendly staff and quick service! Will be visiting again.

Heard brilliant reviews about this place so decided to visit for evening meal with my family. First thing I noticed was the cutlery on our table was dirty. Next the coke and diet coke were served from a plastic bottle which had already been opened and was flat..... paid £5.00 per glass..... My son ordered a water , he won't drink from a glass so was happy when they brought him a glass bottle (1 litre). The seal had already been broken and the water was luke warm it tasted like it was from the tap. Unfortunately he couldn't bring himself to drink it. We were charged £4.50 for the water which is daylight robbery if you ask me. The food wasn't the best Indian food we have tasted. Don't think we will be back again.

We had chicken pakora and then a chicken korma we always get the same as we know that we like it. The pakora was very greasy was not a fan and the chicken korma curry was very sweet it jus wasnt enjoyable, even the cheese and garlic naan was burt in some parts amd raw at others. For us we will be sticking on going to the Indian in coldstream the rajdhani spice there Indians is fabulous.

Ordered a takeaway from Magna for the first time, it was absolutely fabulous, beautiful tender chicken, one of the best curries I've ever tasted. Staff really helpful too, I will definitely be back 🙂

We ordered chicken naga,cheesy nan, keema nan and fried rice . Worth for money and authentic taste .

The best Indian restaurant and takeout in Berwick Very tasty food large portions for the price. Highly Recommended

A brilliant restaurant with a friendly staff and delicious food both sitting in or takeaway

We visited for the first time and on entering, the place was very busy. We were shown to our table, which was in a bank of six place settings, which for a couple, was a little off putting. The menu was extensive and we ordered a number of items. The food, when it arrived, was very good indeed, the staff were very friendly and attentive. The only things that let it down for us were, the noise generated by those who like to hear the sounds of their own voices was very loud, so much so that you couldn’t hear the person sat across from you when you were trying to hold a conversation. Secondly and worst of all, was the disgusting language coming from a large table just behind us. It was uncalled for and didn’t go unnoticed. It was a real shame, as the food was excellent and the staff were great too.

Another fantastic meal at the Magna Tandoori …. Chicken korma, chef special madras with Bombay potatoes, pilau rice and keema nan…. Oh and popadoms and pickles.. thank you Suleman Khan and Oliul Khan Oli… first class 👏👏

Without a doubt the best curry I’ve ever had Highly recommended the murghee masala

Had yet another lovely meal last night, only fault very quick between courses , could do with a little longer , thanks once again

Good food ,attentive service, nice atmosphere ,family run and good value for money. Could not fault this Indian restaurant and the Chicken Karahi was one of the best I've had.

Staff slow and uninterested. I have never been served a balti on a sizzling plate before and it be so poor.

Fantastic curries. Good selection of speciality dishes plus the more typical meals. So much to choose from.

We had a perfect Christmas night meal here. Everything was fantastic, the staff were wonderful and fully knowledgable about what we could have as vegans. We went for pickles and popadoms, Bombay potatoes, tarka dhal, vegetable madras and mushroom curry with two potions of pilau...

Friendly restaurant, excellent service and food delicious as usual. Ran by the same family since 1982 that must say something about the quality of the establishment.

A personal favourite of mine!! Been going here for years and that says it all really. The food is always brilliant in texture and flavour and the service never fails to be excellent. If your in the area then it is a must if you...

I have had many meals sitting in. Always such a lovely atmosphere and amazing people who work there. Always amazingly welcoming and accommodating. Religiously go there for birthday meals. I normally get takeaway from there and they are mouth watering. Living a good distance away...

Bought a takeaway meal for the very first time from the Magna and I can honestly say that the food was out of this world!!!! We had sheek kebabs for starters and a chicken korma main with sundries. By far the best Indian food we have ever eaten. We will definitely be back. Thank you for a truly wonderful meal.

One of the best Indian restaurants you’ll ever go to.

Best Indian restaurant in Berwick for both meals and takeaway. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Food is amazing.

Staff are very friendly & attentive. The food is lovely. Definitely worth a visit!

A regular customer of Magna for over 20 years now since we moved back to the area. The food is excellent, portions generous and the service is always attentive whether you’re dining in the restaurant or call in for a take away. There’s always a warm welcome whenever we drop by. My favourite Indian restaurant.

Always the first choice when eating with the family sitting in or taking out. Absolutely the best in town and would recommend to anyone.

I've visited the Magna many times as the food and hospitality are both consistently excellent. I get welcomed by name when I go in. There is a wide choice of food on the menu and service is quick and attentive. I'll certainly continue to go!

I ordered a king prawn dish but it was far too sweet, I strongly suspect sugar was added while cooking.

The best Indian restaurant I’ve ever been to. The food is amazing, they do the best sheek kebabs I’ve ever tasted!

Amazing food, great service and reasonable prices!! We will definitely visit again in the near future.

We called in for an early Thursday evening meal. Restaurant wasn’t busy due to the time and season. Staff were friendly and attentive. Meals ordered were well presented and extremely tasty. Food and bar prices were reasonable. We will be returning during our short break...

We called in for early evening meal on a Thursday . Restaurant was quiet, but busy with takeaway orders. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Food was cooked fresh to order and our chosen meals were well presented , very tasty and reasonably priced. Well worth a visit if you are in the area

Called in on Sunday lunch time for a takeaway lunch . The food was amazing as usual. Every time we’re up Berwick we go there. Have tried all the other Indians in that area over the past 14 years and this is definitely the best.

Great food and great hosts who always accommodate your needs. I have popped in multiple times in the evening just to get chips and they have always been friendly to me.

Been to Magna Tandoori tonight and I must say it was one of the best experiences in an Indian Restaurant I have had. The service was perfect and the meal was cooked to perfection.

Delicious food every time Staff couldn’t be better!

Would dine here every night if I could, service is always 10/10 never had a bad visit and will always recommend

Our go to place whenever we fancy a curry. Never had a bad experience here. The staff are always friendly and helpful and the food is amazing regardless of if you eat in or takeaway. Never had to wait more than 25 minutes to collect a takeaway which is a bonus.

Always Lovely food and great customer service. Every visit the food is excellent! And always a warm welcome

The perfect place for an authentic indian meal and warming service. The Food was amazing. So authentic and richly spiced and it was great knowing i had the option to alter dishes to my preference. The menu had a wide variety of dishes and many vegetarian and vegan friendly options too. The Khan family's commitment to creating a welcoming atmosphere is evident in the restaurant's ambiance. The tastefully decorated interior exudes a cozy and inviting vibe, making it the perfect place to gather with friends and family for some good food

Our favorite Indian restaurant! Great food, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff. We keep coming back and are amazed that the Magna Tandoori exceeds our expectations every time! Any friends we brought along loved it just as much!

Absolutely love the food here The staff are always so friendly and the service is brilliant they always remember us ❤️

Very clean tidy place Staff very polite Food spot on

We have been eating at this family run restaurant for years. The food is amazing and the staff are always very friendly. They are a valuable part of our community.

We were recommended this restaurant by our accommodation and it did not disappoint. Friendly and attentive staff and most importantly the curries were absolutely amazing. We dined here 2 nights in a row because it was so good.

Been coming here for about 35 years. Really good gluten free food. Very helpful staff and management. Would definitely recommend

This is easily up there with the best restaurants my fiance and I have been to, the customer service is always fantastic with the food to match, with the cosy ambience and traditional deco styling, it's an incredible place to spend an evening! Would recommend...

We come to Berwick twice a year in the caravan, the absolute highlight of our trip is a visit to this amazing restaurant. Absolutely the best we’ve ever had (and believe me we’ve tried a lot!) Can’t wait to come back!!

I’ve been to the magna many time and everything about the experience is always faultless, last night was the biggest group I’ve been with and the staff were as tentative as ever and the food was amazing.

The venue is lovely staff very nice and welcoming and food is excellent perfect place for date night 🤩

It is the best indian restaurant i have been to, the food is amazing everytime we come here

Service brilliant and food excellent quality. 10 people and staff couldn’t be more helpful. Sully was great crack

Fabulous food every time, lovely people and great vibes. Fine place for a family meal or a night out with friends. Sully is the main man and knows how to look after his customers!

We had a fantastic night out here, the staff were very friendly and accommodating considering some of the party had already had several drinks, the food came out swiftly and all of the food was correct considering there was a lot of noise on ordering....

Fantastic as always 5 star big table of us well catered for and very good service food was hot. Definitely be back

Came out for a family birthday meal, Lovely service and fantastic food! Will return as always. A variety of food on the table and all was lovely

Beautiful food and staff are so friendly. Definitely recommend.

We called here for lunch! The set menu was nice, reasonably priced, deco is lovely, cheese naan wasn't to my taste, I'm not a fan of american cheese slices, seemed a strange choice but my husband ate it.

Fantastic family friendly restaurant. Staff always attentive and engaging. Food as always to a high standard:
