Urban Masala in Bristol, City of

I am always impressed by the quality of the food and the precision of the cooking. Tonight was no exception, the food was divine. Great service, great atmosphere, thank you.

Staff were very friendly. The service was quick, such lovely atmosphere and the food was delicious. Definitely a must try :)

Efficient service but the food jarrs with me and my guest. Not good at all and tastes like it was made from a jar. Seriously poor.

An Excellent meal, very impressed. Very busy place and it’s easy to see why. A top choice for Bristol.

First time in bristol as a student and wanted to try out a restaurant nearby and wow it was actually so good. not sure about the price since im not too familiar with prices in the uk but i ordered to garlic naans and a curry which came in large portions. Total was £17. honestly it was rlly good 😋🤤

Great place from second in door. Friendly staff found me a table although I hadn't booked; didn't realise it was so busy though. Perfectly cooked chicken. Relaxed atmosphere and very well priced. Would definitely recommend.

Absolutely great curry, but a bit dark inside.

Food absolutely super Staff attentive and helpful Lively and friendly

Great atmosphere, good choice of food and excellent service.

Very good food, super friendly staff, cosy ambiente. 10/10 - would recommend

Great food and lovely staff. One of the best in Bristol.

The place is very popular, and they cram you in some tables especially the one we were on was very cramped, very dark there is atmospheric lighting and there is dark this was dark. Food was okay if not remarkable. Standard fair.

Super friendly staff. We got a table for 2 on a Friday night around 7pm without a booking (lucky). Great food came promptly despite lots of large groups ordering around us. Lovely veggie food. Just how we like it! Thank you!

Food was a little cold but tasty

Very good, large choice and very pleasant welcome

Amazing food and excellent service.

Lively restaurant, really busy even at 7pm on a Thursday! Food and service both excellent and good value.

Food was terrible. Too bad the ambience and service could not make up for the terrible food. If you're looking for Indian food: stay away. The combination of spices just didn't work. Seasoning was so so. It was fine in one dish. Was not in the other. Lack of seasoning is fine. But lack of just taste is unfortunately not forgivable considering it costs £60.

Loved it. Had to be quick because we hadn't booked on a Saturday night but they got us in and fed in an hour and a half. Lovely fresh tasting food not drowning in grease. A top curry

We went for a friend's birthday, lovely food and service. I think the food's on the spicy side, Which was fine for us.

Server was excellent, attentive, funny, engaging and knowledgeable. Sorry I can't remember their name but he was Portuguese. Food was plentiful and extremely tasty. Yhe vegan menu was more than adequate and even included Indian bread which is highly unusual for an Indian restaurant. Thank you! The atmosphere was fun with singing of popular songs whole making funny congratulations to patrons. Unusual and different.

Nothing great, not bad just average. Bit over priced fancy bowls, but even they did not match.

Good Service, good starters. The main course lacked spice and salt, bread could be better served hot. Drinks could be better. Not bad for an one time visit

Fabulous vibes, amazing and friendly staff. I had so much fun plus the food is super delicious. The butter chicken is a must and the appetiser also incredible. I will definitely come back again. I recommend everyone to come here, they will not regret it.

Excellent food - I still have to fault any of their dishes. The Goan fish curry is so yummy. The only drawback is that it gets really noisy, especially with the music for celebrations (birthday, stag do,...)

Delicious !!! Atypical setting, dark and busy but goes well with the place, very friendly staff who do not encourage consumption, lassi divine! Extraordinary dish, a little spicy <3

Amazing Indian food across the town .

This place is Simply The Best. What more can I say 😊.

Not what it used to be. Staff not so attentive and having to wait or remind them for drinks and food. Very cramped. They have expanded the restaurant but also tried to get to many chairs and tables in. Sadly the menu is a lot smaller also. Nice but has slipped down the ratings for Bristol curry house. Better out there now.

Lovely food looks good tastes great good service

Surprisingly good. Really deep flavors and friendly staff. Thumbs up!

Great food and lovely ambiance, completely full even on a weekday so make sure to make a booking

Lovely curry and lovely service

This place has a lively buzz to it on a Friday night with a friendly atmosphere .. its warm decor and low lighting with just a scatter of rosy lights gives it a romantic feel ... the waiter was attentive and relatable and went the extra mile he enjoys workin there and it added to the whole dining experience ..now for the food ..ive tried a lot of Indians and my fave is the dansak which is a hard one to get right with the hot sweet and sour depths to it and they nailed it .. and the beef sukka was exceptional also the naans are light n slightly crispy which I prefer then dough heavy...very clean fresh ingredients unique recipes great portions and happy to cater with any food allergies 👌👌👌

We had a great meal here last night. The vibe in the restaurant was great, staff really looked after us and the food was absolutely delicious. We'll definitely be back.

Excellent food and service last night! Probably the best Indian dining experience I've had in Bristol so far. As it was for my birthday they also gave me a couple of freebies on the house which was a nice touch! Staff were extremely friendly and would recommend this to anyone. Will definitely be back.

Good was good but mich too loud and crowded

Exciting ambience with elegant decoration and warm welcome from manager and the staff. Really nice restaurant, far beyond the typical Indian. The food was outstanding with a refined choice of dishes. The service was excellent too. Very helpful in advising on the choice of the dishes.

Tastiest Indian meal I have had in a UK restaurant. Friendly staff. Great dining experience.

They had a separate vegan menu, which was a good start. The side dishes were good. However, I ordered Vege vindaloo (my standard order) and it was not good. Potatoes under cooked. There was way too much cinnamon. This makes it feel hotter, a lot hotter, without doing anything for the flavour. I did get it changed on the head waiter's offer and the chef came out to apologise, but the second attempt was no better... Still undercooked potatoes and still the wrong combination with cinnamon 'false' heat. A shame. If you decide to try this place, avoid the vindaloo.

Best amoung the other indian restaurants in bristol

We love this restaurant! The best curries, fresh veg, love the vegan menu! The staff are so efficient and lfriendly

We booked this restaurant for our wedding anniversary and it didn't disappoint. The food was really delicious and well presented for example garnished with real edible flowers. The waiter Carlos was very lovely, friendly, helpful and attentive. He provided outstanding service and made us feel special on our date night. Thank you!

Another superb meal... Guarantee of quality...amazing service... Until next time...!

Very tasty food and great service. Waiter got the chief to adjust the hotness of my dish to my liking.

Everything was deliciousss and prices fair

Excellent Indian food with really tasty main. The staff were friendly and the whole experience was enjoyable. Particularly enjoyed their breads that were light and flavorsome. Highly recommend for great tasting food and will be trying their sister restaurant Urban kohinoor at some point too.

Best curry I've had in a while. Fresh food. Great service.

The best thing about this restaurant... It's an incredibly difficult toss up between the amazing food, and the unbelievably attentive wait staff. We did not feel rushed at all, in fact we slowly sipped our way through two bottles of wine while sampling some of the best Indian food we've tasted in the UK. Make the journey to come here it's a delightful experience.

Always an enjoyable meal from this takeaway

Fantastic as usual, always piping hot & tasty food!

Grate food and kind on delivery.

Excellent. No complaints. Thanku.

No "free bottle of coke" with our order, and charged us for delivery when they clearly stated "free delivery within 3 miles" which we were. Misleading, however food was great

Service not gd and items not there

If I could give 0 stars I would. Absolutely shocking service with the rudest staff I have ever encountered. For an hour I was told "it's on it's way". Then when it was delivered after I stood on the main road with no street lamps, the gentleman said I was "too far" that's why it was over an hour late. I will NEVER be returning to this take away again. Genuinely shocked at how this place is still open. Food was then cold when it did turn up.

Friendly staff, delicious food... Nuff said!!

Wasnt delivered on time and forget my Coke

I order from here regularly and even time after time still love the food and great service :)

Best Indians in Gloucester! Wouldn't go anywhere else! The chefs special southern Indian butter chicken curry is to die for! Thanks again for a beautiful meal!

Only Indian I will know by from!! Perfect every time

Meal is good but the currys need more sauce Staff and delivery is excellent apart from the curry lack of sauce i will be re ordering

Very friendly and food was amazing

Poor food, was like the sauce was watered down and very bland, also trying to charge by cash aswell as paying by card AVOID

Amazeing food great staff highly recommended

The food was fine, although they were 45 mins late. I pre-ordered at 4:30 giving 4 hours from ordering to the time the food was meant to be delivered. I am very disappointed with this shocking service.

Food was good but took over an hour and a half to deliver even though it's only 1.3 miles from my house

Food was good, took a while to arrive but good places get busy I suppose.

The service was good but you had a lot of sauce and not a lot of meat. Bit bland in flavour for us but maybe other people like it

Had the meal for one, really good value for money. Although the chicken balti isn't really to my taste I'd order the meal again and possibly change it for a different curry. Food was really hot & delivered on time.

Food was fabulous and would definitely recommend

Fully recommend this takeaway, great food, great service and have ordered from there many times before.

Quick delivery but Curry's were very watery. Quite disappointed

We order regularly from this restaurant and it is always of a very high standard

Not the best takeaway, meat was not tender and too much sauce!

The chicken tikka masala was full of water ? Really spoilt it :(

Took nearly 2 hours to arrive, and was only delivered when I phoned up and chased it, person on phone said would be free as an apology then delivery man demanded paying. Food was average at best, will never eat here again.

Food was great, however could have had a little bit more meat in the curry dishes.

Always excellent food and quick delivery, would highly recommend

Apart from the meal being a good temperature the meal was awful!! The onion bahjis were rock hard, garlic naan had no garlic, the Baltic dish was not spicy at all and had gristly bits of chicken in it!! The massala had a very odd taste, more than half the food has been thrown away! If I was served this in a restaurant I would expect a full refund!!!!

Not only Non-veg but Veg Side Dishes are really tasty.

Ordered a chicken tikka masala but there wasn't hardly any chicken in it was disappointed :(

It was ok, took a while for delivery. Probably won't order again

Awful meal just tasted of turmeric and salt

Best Indian takeaway in gloucester hands down! Fast, friendly and tasty! Wouldn't use anywhere else!

Beautiful food our new favourite indian take away

Arrived on time but popadoms were stale and ordered a can of coke which didn't arrive with the meal. Food was lovely but ashame that rest was not as good

Brilliant! Best takeaway curry I've ever had, only criticism is the naan bread could be better cooked

Overall great meal apart from the onion bhajis which were a bit small anf hard,

I ordered a lamb madras but all I got was sauce and rice. When I phoned them up to try and receive a replacement, I was passed on to three different people who all said it did have lamb it. I also ordered some onion bajis but they were cold and chewy. They also delivered 20 minutes late.

Waited ages to arrive. Said they rung twice but I had no call. No curry sauce delivered with biriyani so very dry. Not the best.

Excellent, tasty food of high quality

Nice food that was delivered on time. Would order from here again.

Delicious! Great to have found an authentic curry house, highly recommend, :)

Very much enjoyed it. In process of trying most Indian takeaways in gloucester at the moment and this is one I'll come back to

Very nice. Definetly where I'm getting my Indians from from now on

Excellent food delivered hot would have appreciated more than 2 popadoms for 50p though!

Excellent, on time too! (The last time they tried to deliver it 2 hours early!!)

Fabulous meal, best indian takeaway we've ever had! :-)

food was pretty poor - i had the butter chicken but the chicken was dry and the dish seemed to be mostly sauce anyway!
