Zolsha Indian Restaurant in Bradford

We generally use this outlet for takeouts. Never been disappointed. Tried a recently opened rival and it just wasn’t as good. So back to reliable old Zolsha. Spices always spot on. Never too oily. Meat always tender. Fish always perfectly cooked. No gristle. Had many dishes. Favourite possibly South Indian Chicken and Minted Bhuna. But it’s a hard choice.

Never written a review before but felt so strongly that I feel compelled to. Exceptional food, fantastic staff, really warm and welcoming atmosphere. Must recommend the massaladar murgh, exquisite. Can’t wait to come back, wish we lived closer.

Always an excellent delicious meal here - regular takeaways won’t go anywhere else locally - nice friendly staff - great service

Absolutely lovely food xx lovely staff xx definitely coming back. Hubby is gluten free but no issues with the food at all.

Having eaten here many times over the last 13 years, what a disappointing meal we had on Tuesday night. Some courses were luke warm, late arriving and undercooked. Service was not good, lot of emphasis on take aways and large noisy group of men. Some customers asked to be moved. Not up to usual high standard.

Had a lovely meal out with friends last night at Zolsha. Food was excellent, very tasty. And staff were friendly and welcoming.

Decided to go and order a curry after going out with friends and was pleasantly surprised my curry was gorgeous a must have and is one of the best in the area staff we kind and respectful and made me fell welcomed on my short visit would definitely come again with also very reasonable prices

Omg ! Phoned for a takeaway and wow! So delicious! Lots of meat in my byriani and the sauce which accompanys it was really flavoursome. I had it with a soft and fluffy keema nan - it was awesome!! Easily the best Indian in the area 👌👏

The food was ok, the service was shocking. After being seated and handed the menu and got drinks came and took the order. Only 4 of us but took 45 minutes to get our starters, we finished, then waited another 45 minutes for our mains , I had to ask about our meals. It came just warm. Paid our bill but our own fault for not checking it properly and we were over charged . So disappointed over 2and half hours sat in a restaurant waiting for food. Not going back for a while

Our second visit in recent months and another great dining experience. Quality food and great service. We will be back.

We decided to book for a Friday night dinner with family. Have not eaten in before but have had take out. We were really looking forward to it but we left a little disappointed…. The service was a bit slack, it took quite a while to bring the food out to our table, it came in dribs and drabs over the course of about 5 minutes and there were bits missing that we had to ask for…. It didn’t seem overly busy - maybe it was just an off night. Some of the food looked like it had been sat under the heat lamp for quite some time too. The food itself was ok, but unfortunately was not as good as we remembered.

Amazing food, staff and atmosphere. Very friendly staff, couldn’t have been more attentive. The food was lovely, no complaints at all. It was busy but that didn’t stop the staff been attentive, the food came out in a timely manor to a high standard. Will definitely be returning.

New Year’s Eve celebration night. Lovely glass of fizz on arrival, excellent food. Nothing was too much trouble, staff very friendly. Great night was had by all, topped off with fireworks. Well done Zolsha, great night. Would definitely book again for NYE

We visited on New Year’s Eve - normal menu and as a group of 6. The restaurant was really busy but we were made to feel very welcome and were looked after immediately. The food was excellent- starters were probably too big! A great experience. We will return.

The best curry around here. Thank you for accommodating such a big group. Lovely staff and the best takeaways too x

Lovely food as always I'm a vegetarian and they always have plenty of choice. Staff are friendly and happy to discuss the menu with you. Toilet was clean. What more could you ask for.

What a great shame , after an extremely challenging week we decided on a little pick me up with a treat meal at our local restaurant which previously has never disappointed, unfortunately on this occasion it did disappoint . Firstly I should point out we were walk in customers and hadn’t booked ,so we’re really pleased that the staff managed to accommodate us (many thanks ) we proceeded to order two meals ,a peshwari naan rice and chips , although we we’re in no rush , and we were walk in customers on a busy Saturday night the food took quite sometime to arrive ,still not a problem , we were eventually presented with our two ordered main meals ,and a garlic naan (not peshwari naan ) with no rice and chips forthcoming ,as we were tucked in a corner out of the way (quite nice actually) spotting a waiter was a little difficult ,after a short while we proceeded to start with what we had as by this time we were quite hungry ,we actually finished the food that was presented and have to say the food was absolutely stunning which made it seem even more disappointing that we didn’t actually get what we had ordered , just fell a little short of a lovely experience .😢

I was staying over at a friend's house, ordered a delivery from here. The order process over the phone the staff were more than accommodating a bespoke dish. When the cheerful driver arrived, (seldom found with takeaways). Ordered a chicken Desi style with 3 chapatti. They also put in extra few poppadoms too and mint yoghurt. The chicken was most of the dish, large succulent and juicy. The spices used were broad and well balanced, this dish was perfect and more than expected🥰 I cannot praise this enough. I usually have a different aisan dish every week, ut I've never tasted anything as good as this !!! Luckily I saved 1 chapatti and some small left overs for a snack today. Can't wait to try again and eat inside the restaurant 10/10 Guys AWESOME !!!!

Great restaurant. Amazing Decor, really stylish and comfortable. Nice ambience, very authentic. The food is simply divine. Absolutely out of this world. We even ordered some take away to vacuum seal and take back to France with us, it was SOOOOOOOO GOOD. Wonderful service, really happy friendly helpful staff, amazing menu, every single dish we tried was just amazing. Our new favourite Asian food restaurant. Just the best by far. Wonderful place and we will definitely be regulars there. So impressed, just such lovely people, gorgeous please and amazing food. I want to give it ten stars but unfortunately 5 star seems to be the highest I can give. xxxx

Great authentic Bangladeshi food, good service, good atmosphere, well decorated room. Will definitely return when I am back in the area.

Family evening at the buffet on Sunday. If you are vegan then there are chips, cucumber and tomatoes so don’t panic you won’t starve, much. For vegetarians Potato Pakora, onion bajis, a veg curry and rice. For meat eaters there were chicken starters, usual chicken tikka masala, lamb saag (shredded lamb not chunks) and some other hot curry. It was a very amateur buffet, in fact I provide better buffets with our BBQ’s. If you want a proper bugger try Aagrah in Shipley - proper curries, lots of accomplishments Dessert you may ask ? In amongst the table of mint sauce and mango sauce was a tray of miniature chocolate brownie. This was desert unless you ordered off the menu at £4.95 a dish. Very disappointing, not even a scoop of ice cream to go with the mini brownie pieces. The pakoras and Bajis were nice, curries were under seasoned and tasteless. You were lucky to find a shred of lamb in each spoonful ! I’d avoid it in future, it was embarrassing taking family there 😩 oh and they managed to over charges us for 3 drinks we didn’t even have 😱

Excellent service, friendly staff, superb food. I was recommended this place by friends and travelled from Hartlepool and will definitely be coming back

Always lovely food nice staff if sometimes abit slow but we enjoy it very much ! We go quite often it has usually a good atmosphere .

Everything was delicious. We had a couple of special menu requests for milder heat without sacrificing flavour. The staff were attentive, gracious, kind, and easily met our needs. We recommend this place highly. You will love the food and service.

Absolutely lovely meal. Great service and food. Friendly atmosphere. Wednesday deal was a good deal aswell. All the curries were great and the starters.

Another enjoyable visit to Zolsha. The Sunday buffet was very nice with a good selection of starters, mains,and dessert with salad and sauces not forgetting the poppadoms. Staff are nice and friendly. Good atmosphere.

Absolutely fantastic traditional curry. First class ingredients. All staff very professional especially Samad, Lili Eddie and Syed. Zolsha Crosshills is the best place for a quality meal out. Takeaways are equally as good because the team constantly strive for quality. Highly recommended.

This is a great place for a value Indian meal. 4 courses for £15.95 - amazing value. Great food, great staff, lovely ambience - couldn’t fault the service. Parking on site - so convenient. Those who have written negative reviews must have had a bad day or maybe even they are the customer from ‘somewhere very hot!’ Reputation only - haven’t been there yet! 🔥Hope I end up on a higher plain! 🌈☀️ Congrats on what you provide - keep up the good value. I’ll be back.

We have been a few times before and it is always excellent. We have never been on a Wednesday for the banquet before but again excellent. It is ace, great value, massive choice for a set price menu and couldn't fault it at all. Cheers.

We booked for 5.30pm for the Sunday buffet for 4 people. On arrival we were asked if we would like drinks which we ordered and which arrived shortly afterwards. We were presented with a plate of poppadoms and informed that we could make our way over to the self service area where we could select various pickles, sauces and salad items to accompany them. We then selected our starters, which consisted of aloo pakoras, chicken tikka, vegetable samosas and chicken nugget and chips. Following these there was a choice of 5 different curries, varying in strength and consisting of 2 chicken dishes, one vegetable dish, one keema dish and one meat dish. These were accompanied by either rice and/or naan bread. If you still have room there's a small selection of cakes for pudding, namely chocolate brownie or apple crumble cake in our case. You can just help yourselves to as much or as little as you like without judgement. The waiters kept coming round to make sure everything was OK and to check on whether we were OK for drinks etc. They were very polite and friendly and helpful, and I can't fault the service or food. For £15.95 you can't go wrong

We are regular diners to this amazing restaurant, and again tonight it didn't disappoint. Food & service as always second to none. We visited early at 5.30pm as we had our granddaughter with us who is only 19 months old. By 6pm it was very busy and other than make us happy that lots of other people obviously enjoy it as much as us you would never know it was so busy, everything was spot on. We will be back soon.

Lovely Bangladeshi food, try their Sizzler it is excellent with lime juice flavours, the Tandoori chicken is also their signature dish.

Sorry to report that the restaurant was empty only one other couple in so not much atmosphere. Food was poor & I assume microwaved as the sizzling platter did not sizzle & the chicken curry was in a white microwaveable bowl . Did not feel...

Visit regular staff are always very helpful & time to talk to they customers, delicious food & don't rush customers to leave, will be visiting again

The booking and communication was very good. Great food good price they sang happy birthday to me bringing a delicious dessert and a huge sparkler. Fabulous staff.

Enjoyed a lovely meal again last night. Quality food as usual. Cannot wait to be able to dine in again

We enjoy visiting to eat. The food is fabulous. But unfortunately the takeaway side has been very slow/late for delivery on various occasions. Still delicious food when it eventually arrives.

Had a delivery from here last night, the food was excellent, piping hot and reasonably priced. Definitely Knaresborough’s best Indian.

Outstanding food top quality it was my first time going to zolsha an I got to say we was mega impressed after trying a few currys places in area I have found my favourite, Amazing food top class friendly service just round the corner 👌

We came for the Sunday buffet, covid style last night. At £12.95 you won’t find better value for money, stacks of poppadoms, huge portions of mixed starters, two curries each along with rice and naan breads. The welcome was fabulous, service excellent and the food...

I love Zolsha, I can’t believe I haven’t left a review already. We’ve been lots of times on different occasions. Buffet on a Sunday, date night, party nights, family occasions & take aways and I’ve never been disappointed. The food is always spot on no matter what we order. As for the staff they couldn’t do a better job, so attentive and welcoming. It’s a lovely place to eat. We went during eat out to help out recently, all COVID measures are being adhered to, hand sanitiser readily available, masks been worn and tables being thoroughly cleaned as customers come and go. I can’t fault it

Visited last night with friends. During this worrying time every thing was thought out to insure our safety. All staff wore masks, hand sanatisers at door & near the bathrooms. The bathrooms are spotless. The meal was fantastic as always. We go at least twice a month. We brought friends who hadn't been before. They enjoyed it so much they are going to keep visiting. The staff are pleasant & attentive. The menu is great lots of choice. The food is delicious. Well worth a visit.

We regularly visit Zolsha and can honestly say we've never had a bad meal yet! Staff are always so helpful and accommodating, even with last minute bookings. Visited during the Eat Out to Help Out scheme and despite being fully booked - service was fast and food delicious! Keep up the good work guys!

We often come here for food and we have never had a bad meal! Staff are always polite and friendly and the food is outstanding! it’s reasonably priced and great value! would definitely recommend.

Visited Zolsha after a hard days work for tea. We were not disappointed! Poppadoms + pickle tray and two curries and nann breads were absolutely faultless. Beautiful meal. Could not pick fault even if i tried to.Didn't really agree to seeing "burgers" on the the menu though that seemed very tacky for a restaurant.

Perfect food every time, great friendly service, and lovely atmosphere. This is our local curry house which we frequently visit and we enjoy every visit. Thank you and see you again soon

Keighley and Bradford area is well known for its fantastic Indian restaurants and this little gem tops them all! Best menu, great staff and always top food. Busy at times but thats just good buisness, they always have a quiet area set aside for smaller groups/ couples just ask

We visited during the eat out to help out scheme after a recommendation from a friend. Very efficient service despite them being busy and food was absolutely delicious. Staff were very friendly and working very hard in difficult conditions. Good social distancing measures in place.

I visited this restaurant with my partner as a one off on our way home from visiting our family. The staff were very accommodating and friendly. All wearing masks and hand sanitizer at different points in the restaurant. The food was simply delicious and I cant find a fault with it. We ordered the sizzler mix for 2 and this was cooked to perfection. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to friends and family and hope to be back again soon for another visit.

My friends and I usually eat here once a week. On this particular visit, Andy and the team managed to find us a larger table to suit the extra people we’d turned up with, and while it was very busy even for quite late on in the night, the service was faultless. Food was fantastic as always, and the staff do a fantastic job of maintaining Covid precautions! Would absolutely recommend.

Went out during the eat out to help out scheme and it did not disappoint! Great tasting food, friendly staff and an overall great experience with the family. Would definitely go again :)

Best curry in the village been here over 10 years great staff & service, amazing food, Good social distancing measure in place staff will do anything to support they customers Ill recommend this place to family & friends

Staff are helpful, food is great, welcoming for families. We visit regularly and will continue to do so. Many thanks.

Starters: we ordered the onion bhaji and got some lamb chops that were cooked to perfection.Mains: we ordered the chicken shashlick and garlic naan, which again tasted amazing and we enjoyed every bite.The restaurant follows the health and safety regulations with sanitiser at every point and staff wore masks at all times. Despite it being the last day for the eat out scheme, it was quite busy but I would say the service was way better than any other restaurants we have visited during the eat out to help out scheme.Definitely would recommend and looking forward to try some of their other dishes next time.Overall rating: 9/10

Best curry spot. Good social distancing measures, well priced, great service and amazing food. Will be coming back regularly.

When we arrived we could not believe the chaos - two groups of 6 adults stood at the bar chatting and drinking - no social distance - regulations not in place at all. No ventilation - no one way system - more tables than usual and all full. Staff - most no masks - those that did were wearing them under their chins - didn’t see any of the staff and very few customers sanitise. We went in and left. I was going to ring the police to report it - but what’s the point. I do hope no one is ill with Covid19 after this but really they should have had the sense to turn round and leave - your health is worth more than saving £10. An example of a company making as much money as possible without giving any their customers health a second thought.We shall never go here again on principle

Since the day Zolsha first opened in 2010, it has been our go to restaurant. My family and I absolutely love it here. Nothing is ever too much trouble for Andy and his team. From squeezing us in last minute, to holding fantastic Curry & Quiz nights raising money for Manorlands and for being the only local restaurant keeping us all going throughout lockdown. Thank you so much! We'll see you again next week

Visited whilst in the area and wasn't disappointed. Kids korma and rice looked and tasted yummy my 7 year old daughter said. We had 2 speciality curries which were very different but both very, very tasty. Really enjoyable time here.

We have been passing this Indian for some time but never called until this evening. Good service, nice atmosphere and most importantly excellent food. The restaurant is offering the August eat out of help out scheme which made this extremely good value. We will return

Been coming here since forever and it is the best Indian Restaurant by far around us. Fantastic service and even better food every visit.

I came today with family to celebrate my mother-in-laws birthday, including my 2 young boys. The staff couldn't do enough for us. Food was really lovely, lots to choose from on the buffet. They even made my boys a plate of chicken nuggets and chips. My youngest managed to spill his drink which they was straight in helping clean it up. Thank you for making it a lovely visit. We will be back again soon.

Saturday evening walk in, greeted by friendly staff, the curry we had was gorgeous, flavorsome, spiced in the right way, their curry leaves left in and cinnamon sticks to suck on after there was no more food left to mop up it was that delish! well done guys, the bread was delish.. we will be back.

We met up as a group of 4 last week. Attentive service from the start, good quality drinks and fantastic food. I had a slightly fussy request but it was not a problem to the waiter and the food that followed was exactly what I wanted so hats off to him for understanding what I wanted and to the chef for executing it perfectly. We all enjoyed our food, felt comfortable eating, drinking, chatting and will definitely return - thanks to the staff

We visit regularly with family and friends. Welcoming staff and friendly service. The food is always flavoursome and good size portions. Our favourites are onion bhajis as they are gluten free and Naga Tarkaari as it’s a spicy dish cooked to our taste. Great value for money.The times we’ve been to the Sunday buffet we have found it attracts large groups/ families with younger children and the atmosphere becomes chaotic so we tend to avoid it now. Would be perfect if they sold gluten free lager.
