Zeera Indian & Bangladeshi Restaurant in Powys

Very poor quality food and the collection service is terrible. We were left waiting 1 hour AFTER the advised collection time. Chicken was tough and tasteless and the rest of the dishes were dripping in grease. Items missing off the order too. This is 2024, how hard is it to get Indian takeaway as right? This sort of establishment would not survive in a big town or city.

Excellent and unusual curries with attentive service in a comfortable restaurant. This was a real highlight of our visit to the area.

Delicious food, nicely presented. Well looked after by the team & great value for money. All in all a wonderful evening.

Great curry and evening out with the family.

Currys were delicious but there chicken pakoras were weird as chicken were cut into small pieces and came out round like a fish cake chapati were over priced

Very good service and well worth the money

Best tikka curry had for a while . recommend to go .onion baji where great and big .

We had our first take away from Zeera this evening and it was delicious! Staff were very polite and welcoming, food was well cooked, the portions were of a good size and our order was ready exactly when they said it would be. Can't fault it.

Outstanding quality food and service at a good price. Need I say anymore!!

Excellent cuisine well worth a visit the staff are friendly and helpful. Will definitely be coming back.

First thing that I came in I was instantly looked at with a pause as the server stood there with the menu in hand staring at me for minutes and laughed at my appearance because of the fact that I looked different… Other servers looked like they didn’t even want to be there with a face like a slapped fish which is whatever but the fact that people who work there seem to not understand that others look different is just shocking overall first and last I’ll be going there and overall service was just okay and atmosphere was gross just being stared at. And we were severely overcharged!!!!

Superb food, excellent and friendly service.

Really good take away, took longer than expected but worth the wait

I recently dined at Zeera and had a mixed experience. The food was very good, with rich flavors and authentic Indian spices that truly impressed me. The service was good, with attentive staff who made sure we were well taken care of. Additionally, the portions were decent and satisfying. However, my experience was marred by an issue with the billing. I was overcharged, which left a sour note at the end of an otherwise enjoyable meal. Due to this, I am hesitant to return in the future. It's a shame, as the food and service were commendable, but the billing issue overshadowed the positive aspects of my visit.

Had a takeaway, food (tandoori deluxe, lamb bhuna and mixed biryani) was excellent.

I have had some really bad Indian food but nothing really beats Zeera. But that wouldn’t be a reason enough for me to make an effort to leave a review, it was genuinely the worst restaurant experience of my life. We had travelled the entire day yesterday and were starving since it was a bank holiday everything was shut. Zeera was open and it smelled really good, credit where it’s due. Service : The four of us were the only ones in the place and yet it took them an hour to get our food. We kept calling and nobody responded. We were in a rush to get out to reach back home but had to spend over 2 hours in the place. WITH JUST OUR TABLE TO SERVE! Food: the food had sooo much colouring, I could paint the world red and still be left with some. There was no balance of flavour. Price: it was very reasonably priced…specially for the effort that we know an Indian food requires👏🏼 BUT they gave us a hand written bill which over 10 pounds extra… none of us bothered to check the bill as you don’t expect them to charge you over, but they did.

Fantastic meal. Wasn't sure what to have, let Nahid & Jabir recommend and was not disappointed. Great flavour and great customer service. Highly recommend.

Was visiting relatives who have just moved to the area . Nice little restaurant with friendly staff and delicious food . Will definitely go back when next in the area .

Lovely and cosy place to eat. The staff are very friendly and the food is devine.

The staff where very friendly and the food was amazing

Everything amazing, staff amazing, nahid and jabir made us feel so welcome, food amazing and just looked after from start to finish, recommend this place to anyway visiting the area.

Lovely food. Extensive menu. Lovely attentive staff. It was a very nice evening. We will return.

Excellent night at the Zeera. We were treated like Rockstars! The food was great, the service was great, they appreciated our humour and were very attentive. The atmosphere brilliant. Highly recommended. Thank you.

Good food , friendly staff, would recommend

Always great food here. Great service too.

Good food good service used loads of times

Lovely meal, great service. Recommended.

Not bad but won't be rushing back anytime soon. The restaurant was clean and the staff were friendly but for me the food let it down. I don't like sweet curries so I stay away from ones that traditionally are. So when I order a Vindaloo I don't expect it to taste sweet and it was also very runny and not particularly hot! My garlic, chilli and cheese naan just tasted of cheese but my rice and saag aloos were nice.

Food was absolutely delicious, and staff were attentive. Definitely recommend.

Just wow!! My daughter and I visited on 3/9/2023.... The staff were above and beyond and the food was stunning! We literally gave ourselves stomach aches because we did not want to waste a bit. My daughter was treated like a princess and didn't want to leave. Thank you sooo much for our wonderful experience xx

Always a great curry. Good service and friendly staff

Eighteen months on from my bad experience, and not set foot in this dump since. If you want to violently empty your bowels, this is the place to go to. This is the review I placed at the time - and not a single word has to be altered. "I recently moved to Llandrindod Wells and decided to treat myself with a restaurant meal TWENTY YEARS after a terrible experience with an Indian restaurant in my old town, where I had awful diarrhoea due to the shockingly bad hygiene. Exactly the same story with Zeera: the diarrhoea was so bad I disgraced myself and my jeans whilst walking around town the next day. I plan to live in Llandod until my dying day, and intended to go out to dine every two weeks to enjoy my retirement. At the visit to Zeera, I paid £20 for a meal, with beer. Therefore, by my reckoning of £20 x 26 weeks x twenty years, Zeera has lost my custom to the tune of £10,000. Never, ever again will I go into Zeera, and I urge all other customers to ignore the planted positive reviews and boycott this establishment."

The whole party said this was their best Saag Aloo ever! All the food was indeed very tasty, served with a smile and a bit of humour. We had a really lovely time and vegetarians were catered to well.

The Curry was so good, loved it.

Food was very blan!! No taste. Asked for hot curry no taste.

Dinner | £20-30 This was a fabulous and authentic zeera indian experience. The flavor profile of my tikka masala dish was brilliant. I'm starting to realize that almost every Indian restaurant I frequent in the UK is going to be stellar. Very reasonable prices, and authentic zeera Indian cuisine expertly and lovingly prepared. You won't be disappointed. Five stars

Very polite staff food was excellent

Fantastic curry, great service. Chilli rice was amazing! Will definitely return when in the area again.

The food was good, but there were some noisy folk on a table near us

Food was nice but a bit cold by the time it got to the table. Staff were however lovely.

Great menu with dishes I've never seen before. I and my friend very much enjoyed the misty chicken .

Fantastic service and great food

Excellent food we went back twice.

Excellent food and service despite being very busy. Great value. Recommended.

The curries are great and the staff are friendly and helpful. Great value for money

We recently moved to the area from a town where we had a dozen or more Indian restaurants, so we were a little concerned if this place wasn't as good as we've been accustomed to. Luckily it is!

We were staying locally and was recommended this place but to say we were disappointed is an understatement. - Sat by the door was freezing, we asked to move and they said no tables available. (When there was) - We waited 35 minutes to have our order taken and in total 80 minutes for our food to arrive. - the food was bland and no taste in the curry, very watery - service was appalling. There was a little guy who was great, apologetic and running around serving all the food where as the other 2 staff members were rude and didn’t care. Main issue here is that they favoured takeaway customers than dining customers which just didn’t work. Was really looking forward to this but was very disappointed.

Zeera, Llandrindod Wells is an Indian/Bangladeshi culinary breath of fresh air 'IF' you are looking forward to a pleasant, casual, relaxed evening of fine dining in pleasant surroundings. Good food, cooked fresh takes time, if you lack patience, perhaps Gregg's is a better fit for you. The food is excellent and well worth the wait. The place was packed on Saturday night advanced booking is recommended. We look forward to introducing our discerning friends to this restaurant.

Very good food and a lovely atmosphere! The waiter was amazing and very friendly and he made sure we're having a good time. We were just passing by, but we'd love to go again sometime.

Fantastic food. Lovely staff and great atmosphere. Thank you for your hospitality

Really nice food and service. only passing through but would recommend 👍

Korma a bit too sweet for me but the rest nice. Especially the service was amazing

Very good service from start to finish and wonderful food

Celebrating our wedding anniversary we picked a restaurant that was known to us but we had never been. It was excellent. Staff very friendly and helpful, Food was served promptly and was hot, tasty and plentiful. As it was a Tuesday night the restaurant itself was quiet but there was a few tables being used. Doing a steady trade on Takeaways. We couldn't finish our meal so we got the food to go. A very enjoyable meal and restaurant.

Everything tasted way too sweet. The chef seemed to throw honey at all the curries. Left feeling a bit sick. The mix kebab stater was great though. Recommend keeping your order simple if you don’t want to be overwhelmed by sugar. The waiter was really nice, but the restaurant as a whole didn’t really have its act together. Food arriving before drinks, no ice in drinks, long wait for food, prioritising takeaways over dine-ins, just basic nonsense. All in all a pretty disappointing meal.

Awesome food and atmosphere thoroughly recommend 5*

We were recommended to have a meal at the restaurant as we are staying local for a week.We can honestly say that we couldn’t find fault with anything; the food was amazing and the staff couldn’t do enough for us. Literally it’s the best Indian food we have had! We strongly recommend Zeera to anyone looking for a great Indian meal.

Best indian meal for a very long time First class service as well Portion sizes huge. Thank you

Food was incredible, waiting staff were so attentive and helped suggesting different dishes. Try the coconut chutney, it's incredible. Went with our little boy and they went and provided us with a high chair and disinfected it infront of us. Thanks so much

First time ordering from here and didn't disappoint. Ordered and paid via their online link from google, very easy to use and a varied menu. Ordered what we would usually order from other takeaways with a few of Zeera own specials. All excellent quality and tasty, one of the few times everything eaten with no leftovers. Definitely recommend.

Ate here for the first time tonight. Great food and friendly service. I would definitely recommend eating here.

First time visiting last night and definitely won't be the last. Everything was fresh and full of flavour. The breads were amazing! Service was fast and friendly. Looking forward to our next visit already

great food, helpful good service from friendly staff.

Recently moved to area from West Midlands, so we have tried literally 100s of curry houses living so close to the Balti Quarter. Had our first take away this evening from Zeera and can honestly say, it is THE BEST curry we've ever had!!!! The chicken was perfect, literally melted in your mouth and the curry flavours themselves were perfection (Chicken Phal & Chicken Achari). Thank you, we WILL be back, most probably every week 🤗

The restaurant has a red theme decoration where even the light bulbs are handpainted in red, which I find a bit dark and not so exciting for a eating place. The menu has a great variety, the food was nice and tasty. For the main course, I had makani chicken, which was 5 small pieces of chicken breast in a mild sauce of butter, cream, coconut and mango. The waiters were slow and it took ages to have the bill, as the cashier/owner was very busy dealing with the take-aways and phone calls. It was good, the people with me enjoyed the food too but I had indigestion the whole night. Not very happy ending.

Good food last night but the wait is atrocious, ordered on munchala first of all to be rejected by Zeera, then rang and ordered said a 60min wait which is fine, got there on time to be stood in a cue for 40 mins plus with about 10 other people waiting for takeaways. People dining in trying to eat whilst we were all stood round waiting is not a nice feeling, poorly run by whoever’s in charge, needs to be more professionally run & organised! Had friends over who we haven’t seen in a long time, first ordered at 7, finally sat down to eat at 9:30pm! Two rice orders wrong also. Sort it out guys!

Ordered and paid online, waited half an hour after pick up time in the queue to collect the meal that we'd paid for, only to be told that they hadn't received the order and they would not refund the money. Whilst waiting did get chatting to a number of other people also waiting outside as the place had overbooked. We were not the only ones who walked away without a meal. I would rate zero if that was an option

Appalling, AVOID, AVOID, AVOID. Ordered for pick up using their online order system, paid and money taken. Order time 60 minutes. Arrived 60 minutes later to pick up, had to wait a further 30 minutes in a queue only to be told my order not received despite showing the confirmation. I asked for a full refund and was informed I need to contact the 3rd party they use to accept orders. Still waiting for my money. Do not order food from this restaurant.

Really good curry house, been here many times and tried most of the chef's specials. Defo recommend the chef's specials - got massive variety of flavours, far better than the generic slop variants that some curry houses churn out. Chicken pili pili is amazing and their jalfrezi is the best. Quality chef and really friendly and professional service.

Great service. Amazing food - a really lovely curry, food was delicious. Highly recommended.

Ordered for the first time via online delivery. The food was delivered within the hour and is by far one of the nicest Indian food I have ever eaten. Loved it and will definitely order again

Great restaurant and service, would definitely recommend!

Fantastic tasty food brilliant friendly staff amazing

Always very attentive and food of consistent quality

Good local takeaway, food is good and staff are always friendly.

Quite possibly the best Indian food l have ever had. Very high quality food. Well worth a visit

Great food, realistic prices and friendly service Would definitely be going back

Me and my partner came here for a meal whilst staying nearby on our honeymoon. We searched high and low for an Indian Curry House and drove for 40 minutes to get to Zeera due to the EXCELLENT reviews it already had. We consider ourselves to have tried lots of curries from lots of places (myself especially), and this place served us the nicest food of the lot. If you’re in the area - GO! You will not regret it.

For Zeera, read zero. And here we are, 24 hours later still don't feel ready to eat another meal. I opted for the lamb, thinking that would be a good choice in Wales. If indeed it was from the sheep family, I'm not sure if it was a young one... and by the way it resisted chewing... or rather actively fought back, I wonder whether it was a herbivore at all. My partner had a mango chicken thing... she described it as chicken jam, however it did seem to be chicken. That both of us ended up prostrate all night, fizzing and gasping like monstrous bio -digesters is probably what prompted me to leave this review, that, and waking up with a mouth filled with vomit, which included a lump of "lamb" , which, like a Glaswegian hardman, was back for more and "No going to be bossed aboot by an english man". All I can end this with, is hoping that the the complimentary Baileys they gave us, was indeed watered down with just water, and not something else easier to hand.

Superb food Best Indian food I have tasted for a long time

Really good food, with nicely developed flavours - well cooked with proper spices, and very generous portions. Well worth a trip.

We went for takeaway, can't fault it. Food was cooked to order so a little waiting time which was too be expected and it was well worth the wait. Highly reccomend!

Friendly staff, great ambience n great food. The Indian spicy food is customised n toned down for the local people but you can always ask to customise n they are happy to oblige. Even in the 11th hour the staff didnt lack their enthusiasm. Kudos. I highly recommend this place

Great Indian restaurant. Bit of a slower service which is good as you get a bit of a break between courses. Normally they rush you out. Garlic chilli chicken was awesome.

Love love this place, staff are so nice and what with the freebies you get offered, why wouldn't you go there. Lamb Vindaloo is to die for.....

Place was amazing full off life and the food was exceptional.

Would certainly recommend this place me and my partner had great food here very friendly and reasonable price absolutely love the baileys and after eight

Stopped through the town for the night, felt like a curry and was not disappointed. This was the best curry in the UK I have had in a long time. The service was also excellent.

One of the best takeaways I've had in a while! The portions were good, the prices were decent, and the food was delicious!

Lovely food and very nice staff, would definitely return and recommend to anyone 👍

Good service & very tasteful food. Definitely recommend!!

Had vegetable korma and rice with a garlic nan it was very good

Thank you Zeera for our lovely take away last night. Chicken Tikka Bhuna, for me, and Chicken Madras for him - plus starters. Delicious. Just what we needed.

Excellent food whether taken away or eaten in (covid-19 allowing), with a good standard of service too. Understandably a bit more expensive than the only local competition (because the other is takeaway-only), but SO much better quality ingredients, preparation, texture and taste. Well worth paying that little bit more for.

Superb Indian! Sometimes a little wait for take away, but well worth it! Always a lovely atmosphere when you eat in as well. 👍🏼

Staff not very friendly. Food OK, had better.

Excellent meal, and fantastic service :) Definitely recommend a visit!

Very good food, friendly staff, very clean will be ordering again

Avoid. First and foremost, my stomach is in tatters after this meal. papadoms were stale, naan cold, chicken in chicken tikka possibly not cooked thoroughly. ordered "a coke and a diet coke" over the phone which to most prob means a can or single bottle but after he took payment he pulled out 2 giant bottles. should have mentioned that's all they have. tarka dal was very good.

The starter was fine then l had the main course, then 10 mins later l ran into the toilet and chucked up my food which l told the manager, but still he charged me for the meal. Plus it was my 15th wedding anniversary. Shameful
