The New Bengal in Gosport

Best restaurant in Gosport. Long established ,with reputation of serving authentic Indian dishes and Anglicised popular ones also. Substantive, varied menu to suit all tastes which can be tweaked to suit. Seemingly the only restaurant in the area that has a functioning kitchen after 6pm on a Sunday evening and it was absolutely packed ! Clean. modern, well staffed. Best to book.

Fabulous food in a modern setting. Service was good and attentive. Can't believe we have this in Gosport. Each course was tasty. Some new dishes to choose from outside the standard Indian restaurant

Haven’t been for a while and didn’t recognise the front of house ! Great food and choice. Service is fabulous as always. Fantastic family run business.

Without a doubt the best Indian restaurant (and takeaway) in Hampshire! Every meal is perfect, I've been here numerous times over the years for both a sit down experience and takeaway; and have never been let down with the experience. I recommend this to anyone in Gosport, extremely well priced, fast service, great atmosphere.

Had the most amazing food here and the service was absolutely fantastic, all the staff were so lovely and friendly and really went above and beyond for us. Thank you for having us!

Work all over UK and probably have an India once a week. Been here several times in the last 8 years. It's in my top 3 Indian restaurants.

The food is absolutely fantastic. So yummy, definitely worth the money.

We’ve only ever had a take-out but the food and friendly staff never disappoint.

Very lovely staff, excellent service and food was delicious. They very kindly made my dish less spicy. Very impressed, would definitely recommend.

Just had a lovely evening with great food, fab service even though the staff were so busy. They couldn't have tried harder. Wonderful! Won't hesitate to book again even though I was visiting the area. Highly recommend! Chicken Tikka Masala, Chicken Korma, Prawn Biryani and Bindi Bhaji with Poppadoms, chutney etc and garlic naan. All cooked and presented beautifully. Many thanks

The best curry in the area. Have been going to the family run New Bengal for over thirty years and have never been disappointed. Lovely people, lovely food. Great menu.

Couldn’t believe how busy it was when I picked my order up However after tasting our food we could understand why. The best Indian we have tasted in a long time.

Gotta be one of the best I’ve been to and I’ve been to a fair few over the years the last 50 years. Would thoroughly recommend

Excellent service. Beautiful food. Cosy dining. Group of 8 easily accommodated with everyone receiving piping hot starters and mains at the same time,

We all enjoyed our freshly prepared meals. Good choice of drinks. Service was excellent. How an Indian meal was cooked many years ago.

A very good curry house,in my hometown,it means the world to me.

Sadly my takeaway was very burnt and chicken was dry.bin job!,victim of it own success,over an hour wait for food. disappointed

Service slow, even to pay bill. Was surprised my rice was so sweet so knocked a star of food but otherwise very tasty and good portions.

My dad came here when I was a baby for take away, he would always have madras and a pint of carling while he waited! Last night I came here with my dad (and the family) for my 50th Birthday and nothing in terms of service and quality has changed. The service is superb, the food delightful (only its kingfisher on tap now, not carling thank goodness!). Only 4 stars for the food because the prawns in my dhansak were a little chewy, as was the lamb in my son's, but other than that, it was an amazing meal and I have always, and will always come here for my curries.

Really excellent food and different dishes as well as the usual favourites.

Since living in Gosport my partner and I have found a few restaurants and take-aways we both enjoy but nothing compares to New Bengal. Everything from the moment you walk in the door to leaving is perfect. The waiters here are very kind and all have a great sense of humour. And the food is always incredible. We always get a starter and a main. Some of the dishes here I've never seen in other Indian restaurants and are delicious. If you are going to visit on a weekend it's always best to book a table well in advance. It's always busy here and if you call on the day the phone will always be engaged (because of how good their reputation is.

First curry from this restaurant, service was good especially when they were busy. I had a family gathering,I collected the food and we all thought the food was amazing.

We dined at 17:30 and the place was busy by the time we left there was a queue outside. The New Bengal is a restaurant I will visit again.

It's been a while since we visited this little Indian Restaurant and I believe it is now under new management. However, the service and food is as good as I remember it from previous visits. Attentive waiters, quick service, fabulous food, reasonably priced. What more can you ask for? Plus it's always busy which, to me, is a sign of a good reputation. Keep up the good work guys!!

We have used this restaurant for the past 3 years and wouldn't go anywhere else. We visit in house 2-3 times a year on our birthdays and anniversaries. And have at least 1 takeaway a month. Always with 10% discount on collection. Wether eating in or take away the food is amazing. So tasty, generous portions and cooked to perfection. And very fairly priced. The mango and pistachio ice creams are always a must after the meal. The staff are always so attentive and nothing is too much trouble. They are friendly and professional but can still have a laugh and a joke about which adds to the atmosphere and ambiance. We have always booked before eating in as you can rarely get seated if you just walk in-a tell tale sign of just how good it is here. Very clean, and mellow authentic Indian decor throughout. Definitely recommend this place

I've used the New Bengal since 1973, so have known it for nearly 50 years. Sunni, Mac and Sol's Dad was the first owner I knew and the boys have kept his excellent traditions going. The food is lovely and they will adjust the menu to your choice. Always best to book.

Amazing service all round and very attentive. Highly recommend.

I had a lovely meal out with my friends. The restaurant was packed and that food was delicious

Excellent staff, friendly and attentive, the food was good but not the absolute best I've ever had and the restaurant was very busy and a bit on the noisy side.

We did a take away - very generous and tasty portions at a reasonable price. Prompt, friendly service.

Superb food and very generous portions. It was very easy to order online and it was ready for us to collect on time. We will definitely be back.

Very easy to order online. Our foid was ready on time. The 4 meals we had were all superb. Generous portions. The lamb byriani was the best, the lamb just melted.

Food beautiful and lovely atmosphere. Had a small issue tonight though when ordering for collection. Was told the total was £30.90 including the 10% collection discount. Asked to pay seperately and they were asking for over £16 each saying it is more if you pay seperately which it shouldn't be as he said he still applied the 10% discount to us both. Tried to explain his maths was wrong but he wouldn't listen and he was insinuating I was being petty over 2 or 3 pound. Simple maths £10 order with 10% off is £9 If you pay separetely £5 with 10% off is £4.50 £5 with 10% off is £4.50 £4.50+£4.50 =£9 STILL SAME PRICE! Food was really great though, would definitely recommend. Just don't ask to split a bill when there are discounts involved.

Food and service was fantastic. Very friendly staff

Fabulous food, best in Gosport. Great staff, need to book in advance no matter what day you plan on going as this place is so busy

Normally order the chicken dupiazia which is usually very nice, but tonight it was so hot and not nice at all, very disappointed.

Food is delicious. Try the mushroom balls as a starter amazing.

Probably the best Indian meal I've had and believe me I've been to lots of great Indian restaurants in Southall etc. The mixed lamb starter and a goan lamb dish for main was to die for. Will be travelling down special from Northampton occasionally from now on as it was that good.

Brilliant service and food was fantastic. We have come away for the weekend and found this place online. Called and booked a table and they fitted us in straight away.

Great choice of excellent quality food

This is the best Indian restaurant on the South Coast. The food and service is exceptional. I had chicken balti, the best that I have ever tasted. They have a lot of regular customers and people celebrating. They also do take away meals. Their take away menu is online.

The best Indian Restaurant in Gosport. Tasty reasonably priced food and extremely happy courtious staff.

This is by far the best curry house I’ve ever had. I’ve been around many of the local Indians but won’t be going else where now I’ve found this one! Unbelievable!

Mac - the owner, and Shamah - the waiter (I hope I have spelt both correctly) are the absolute life and soul of this restaurant. I would recommend takeaway because the food is absolutely incredible but I think the service here is my favourite part of the experience. Dress like a king or wear your shorts and flip flops, it doesn't matter, each of these gentlemen will treat you like the most important person in the room. I have been in to eat twice and I would (and often do) recommend this place to anybody that will listen. New Bengal is the pinnacle of high Street Indian restaurants and especially so in Gosport. I couldn't be happier with everything I've experienced here. Excellent food, incredible service, and a meal that will leave you full but fully satisfied. I couldn't comment on the deserts because I've been far too full on both occasions. Extremely generous portions but perfect for loving and sharing. Thank you new bengal and special thanks to Mac and Shamah.

Got take away as we visited without reservation. The staff were friendly and the food was prepared well. They also offer 10% discount on takeaways.

Love the food here, love the atmosphere, Matt our waiter is always consistently friendly and accomodating. New Bengal is a favourite in Gosport, I don't know anyone who doesn't enjoy it here.

Went for a lovely meal here Friday evening. Food was wonderful and staff were very polite and friendly. Will definitely return

Amazing food and staff sp friendly,they work so hard to make your experience a great one! We go there many times.5 stars from us!

Not been here since before covid. Still as good as ever with the food and service

Returned after several months and realised what a mistake I made . Food just delicious, just the right balance of spices and heat . Attentive staff , and judging how busy it was it remains the town’s favourite curry house.

When my friends and I had completed our meal, the reason that they were so busy and we had to wait for a table was more than obvious. The food and service were both flawless!! And the price very sensible. There are reasons I sometimes visit Gosport that guarantee I'll be eating here again when I do.

Food was delicious, pretty much the best I can remember and staff were great!

Delightful experience. Good company and excellent food.

Great choice with dishes I've not seen before. Dishes very well marked for dietary requirements. Lovely well cooked food

Food delivered on time and hot, recommend tropical balti :@)

Easily the best Indian restaurant in Gosport.

Best Indian takeaway in gosport. Would 100% recommend anyone that goes here.

Good food but took ages to arrive. Quite a big party of 18 but slow nevertheless. Staff were great and food was lovely albeit not as hot as expected

Just back from eating in this restaurant. The choice is extensive and different. Whilst serving the traditional curries Madras, Vindaloo, etc. It also offers a completely new recipe I had the chicken naga murgh, hot and favoursome. My group thought their dishes were excellent. The staff are polite and attentive. Very busy place , although I recommend you book in advance as it was very busy.

Found the food to be very bland and overall an average 3, although I did consider awarding this a 2 based on food alone. Nice waiters however will not be returning.

Have eaten at the new bengal many times and the food is always delicious. I highly recommend a visit

Food was amazing - one staff member very polite and helpful - but rest of staff quite curt and abrupt couldn' wait to get rid of us - it felt like a fast food cafe and a poor one at that. I feel they should not book you in if they cannot give you a decent service. Sad to see a much loved curry house get like this

Had a takeaway which was really nice. Long wait although only 10 minutes more than they said it would be

Take away amazing, the place was packed, a good sign of a good restaurant. Staff were so polite, great service!

Great curry here, I had a delicious Goan lamb dish. The prices were quite reasonable and the service was quick and we were well looked after. I've always had consistently good experiences coming here and look forward to another visit!

Visited occassionally over the past 12 years. Consistently great food. Better still, staff are incredibly polite and friendly. Recently experienced a minor delay on a takeaway order and was overwhelmed by the response by the team. Great food, excellent service. Highly recommended 👌

Great service extremely friendly helpful staff. Excellent food. Will definitely be going back.

Went in on the off chance out of the rain on our walk back from the ferry to Lee. Excellent all-round food and service. Hadn't been since before COVID. Thank you.

We were here last New Year’s Eve and it was amazing. The food tonight was as good as ever but the staff were not! We felt rushed and found one member of staff quite arrogant and off hand. Disappointing !

We came here on a bit of a whim when we couldn't decide what to do for dinner. Thankfully we came across New Bengal and me and my partner couldn't be happier. The waiters here are all incredibly friendly and helpful and the food is incredible. They also offer takeaway/delivery which was very prompt. Definitely a new favourite of ours in the area and will be coming back again and again and again.

We've ordered once before and was decent but tonight the chicken tikka starter and the chicken within my chicken tikka massala curry was rubbery/tough... spent 40 pound overall on the meal and chucked all mine away as it tasted like it needed cooking a bit longer... can't order from here again, not worth the risk

Delicious meal to celebrate partner's mum's birthday. Would recommend.

Great indian food! We ordered a lot of different dishes and everything was just delicious! High quality food and a really friendly service!

We were warmly welcomed, which was the best bit of the experience and shown to a table, First impressions, that evening, were that the restaurant was clean. The music was very loud and the phone, even louder. Having selected a main course and drinks, each, we were offered papadoms, and some extras for the mains, which were agreed. Two minutes after the arrival of the papadoms and accompaniments (why put spoonables to one side and the papadoms between us?) , the waiter came and said, 'your main course is ready, would you like it now?' It would have been clear that we were only a quarter-way through the starter.. We asked for a five-minute delay, which was literally that, when he asked again. OK, then .. The mains arrived, looked nice. Mine was meant to be king prawns in a cashew and coconut sauce. The sauce was sweet and there was no evidence of cashews, in any form. The accompanying lemon rice was tepid and had many pieces of chopped lemon in it. I like lemon zest, but not pith, I don't think anyone enjoys the pith - so I put all the chunks, but one, to the side of my plate. The peshwari naan was delicious. The bottled beer was as expected. Clearing the table, the waiter spilt some rice in the table and a tablemat, but did not return to clear up the spill. Not good. We decided not to order anything else and had long since, decided not to return. An evening that started so promisingly, fell flat. This used to be a very good restaurant. Not any more.

Best takeaway Indian we've ever ordered from. The quality was just as good as when we ate in the restaurant and will definitely be our first choice from now on.

Ordered online, a great choice of food. Delivery was prompt. Not eaten from here before and we were not disappointed, absolutely outstanding food, probably the best indian I've eaten for a long while. Now high on our list to eat at the restaurant.

What a lovely restaurant! The food was amazing but what I was more impressed with was the staff, I've never been to a restaurant where every single person was smiley, friendly, ready to help you, had a small chat with you, I just left with a huge smile on my face an a bag full of beautiful food which was incredible! 5* definitely recommend for a great night out!

What a fantastic place for the best tasting Indian in Gosport ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ food and very helpful staff I do recommend it to everyone and the takeaway is to the same standards ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Haven't eaten from New Bengal for a very long time - the food was excellent as always

Another great evening, cheers Sonny and Matt.

Preferred take out on line . Our last time to do so was pre Covid. As usual, the food was outstanding. On pickup, the gentleman in charge (and he is such a gentleman) apologized because our order wasn’t ready (even though we were there ten...

Just ordered a meal online. Went to pick it up. All good. Just finished eating it. Oh my, what an excellent meal. Everything about the food was top notch. Would recommend this place to anyone.

Friendly, efficient service and simply the best curry I’ve eaten for many years. We’ll certainly be visiting again

I Went their for dinner. Food was amazingly cooked and served very well. Very friendly, agile and attentive staff. I think great taste coupled with amazing customer service are their strength.

Absolutely superb! Although we have never eaten in, all of the food we order online comes in perfect condition and is still really hot. The food tastes authentic and changes can be made to the order to suit dietary needs!

Fantastic food, first class service. We were lucky to get the last table on a Tuesday evening. Would recommend booking. A+++

First time I’ve been here and was very impressed, the food was lovely and the staff were very friendly with us and our children. So much food left over to bring home! Will definitely be back ! Thank you

Really good food and great service from the team for our large 18 person party, nothing was too much trouble, would definitely rebook

Very polite & friendly staff beautiful food in a very welcoming enviroment I went in with a wheelchair & they were very helpful wud definately recommend giving it a try

Extremely friendly,helpfull,well mannered and generous portions

This place is legendary. The grandfather of Indian food in Gosport and with good reason. Service is friendly and attentive, food is delightful and it doesn't break the bank. We had a lovely mid week meal there the other day after a busy day on the water running boat charters and it was just what we needed to unwind. The boat was a little lower in the water when we returned though - you won't leave hungry !

Wonderful night out at the indian restaurant "The New Bengal". Wonderful indian food and the staff was perfect.

Good food at a good price. More choice than just the basic traditional UK curries. Highly recommended.

Amazing food as usual and amazing customer service. We made an order for delivery, requesting it for a particular time. Unfortunately this was overlooked and they delivered it an hour earlier. They were so apologetic and offered to take it back and to deliver a new order at the requested time. We declined, deciding to just opt to keep it warm instead. Once the driver had returned to the restaurant, the manager 'Max' called us apologising again and insisting they redelivered at the requested time with a fresh order. So impressed! Thank you

Have used this restaurant regularly over the years the original owner was there for 40 years then ho sold it and retired. Ordered my regular Raja Chinga paneer palak for home delivery, King prawns cooked with spinach and then sprinkled with Indian cheese. What was...

We experienced wonderful service in nice surroundings. The menu was interesting including some authentic desserts. The main meal curry was excellent, the rice was fairly standard however the breads we undercooked, the stuffed paratha wasn't stuffed with anything and the bread was a soggy dough....

Great food and excellent staff team. Several meals here in past few weeks and always great quality

A great place Excellent food Excellent service. We came with a group twice and all were very happy. I highly recommend this place
