The best restaurants serving Asian food in England

DON’T GO HERE. Went to this restaurant at 7.30 p.m on a Sunday night. Just a couple of other diners, but they left soon after our arrival. It was obvious from the start that they knew they were not going to be busy, so the quicker they could get us fed and out the better for them. It was a constant rush. Immediately we were told that they closed at 9 pm, their website says 10 pm, which annoyed us, even before we had eaten we were told this. Then it was all systems go. We ordered a bottle of wine with our meal only to be told half way through it that we could take the rest of the bottle home if we wished. In other words, hurry up and drink it or take it with you. They were even rushing us through that. Waiters were constantly coming over to ask us to choose next course. Food was very bland and unappetising, Balti was a disaster on a plate. By 8.30 pm two of the waiters already had their coats on ready to go. No hot towels were given, after all, that would have added 2 more minutes to our stay and that wouldn’t do would it? Bill was presented before we had even asked for it. I have never, ever, been an Indian restaurant where you were simply not wanted or welcome. In my experience and I have been in many, many Indian restaurants, staff are welcoming and are very pleased you have chosen to dine there. Maybe they wanted to get home and watch Big Brother or something, who knows. We were calling an Uber for trip back, but felt so unwelcome and uncomfortable that we waited 15 minutes outside, in the cold, for it to arrive. They were even hoovering as we exited. So, save yourself money and indigestion and PLEASE GO SOMEWHERE WHERE YOU ARE APPRECIATED.

Estaba decepcionado por la calidad de la comida que nos sirvieron. Muy promedio para precios más que promedio. El servicio tampoco estuvo a la altura. Todo el mundo era perfectamente agradable, pero no nos atendió una persona tan constantemente tratando de llamar la atención de alguien para pedir lo que necesitábamos. Decepcionante.

Arrogant and egoistic owner who is against equality. He organized a diwali evening party and says rules need to be followed by queuing for buffet, but does not follow the queue rule for his friends and family. Also, does not replace items missing in the buffet. Some got, many did not get all the food. Thakers is gone downhill due to this owner. Do not bother going there unless the owner is humbled and he has learnt his lesson.

Ristorante super “local”. Frequentato poco da turisti e molto da persone asiatiche. I noodles erano squisiti e fatti a mano davanti a noi. Il servizio è stato molto veloce. Non è adatto ad una cena tranquilla e “di coppia” ma a me è piaciuto

I went to Korea for a few times for business purposes so I have good knowledge what the food should taste like. The good point, to begin with, is generally the dishes were cooked to a good standard. The bad point, however, is that the portion size is really poor especially on rice/noodle which isn't enough for 1 person to be filled. Looking at the final bill, I think maybe I should go to central London?

Really pleasant meal Visited with my family on a Saturday night. We all cleared our plates. I really enjoyed the Madami Chicken, very sweet. The portions were sensible and fairly priced too. We left feeling full without overdoing it like is often the case at Indian takeaways! It was very quiet but they mostly do takeaways. That's also reflected by the size of the place and the limited bar. The service was fantastic.

餐廳内環境舒適寧靜,餐桌、椅子都是清潔乾爽地面及地上都是清潔及地面乾爽,很多人，很熱鬧,服務好，態度好,有禮貌,照顧客人,侍應靚仔,主動性慢,食物份量足夠,香鲜味美,還好選擇了這家，實在太好味

The days of a cheap curry are over but this restaurant still represents fair value for money compared to others in the area. The entrance is not too inviting, as it is tucked away but once inside it was pleasant enough. The staff were attentive enough without being over powering leaving us to enjoy the generously proportioned food. All in all we could not find anything to complain about so comes with our recommendation.

We were very disappointed with our tasteless, extremely watery, over cooked chicken takeaway. We ordered two different mains, and both looked exactly the same and were bland. To add insult to injury, it was the most expensive Indian takeaway we have ever had. If you are a lover of amazing Indian cuisine, avoid this place!!

A superb Bangladeshi restaurant and takeaway. We were visiting the area and had dinner here. Service is excellent and food delicious. Manager friendly and informative (go with the recommendations)

We had our second meal here and once again it was delicious! The food is freshly prepared and very authentic. I would highly recommend the jungle, red and panang curries.

Firstly the 2 star EHO sticker in the window is somewhat concerning, however the fact on the EHO website it is marked with a 1 star is confusing! The food is consistently inconsistent. Some visits is OK others not. Generally the restaurant and toilets need some attention to detail regarding cleanliness and the staff although polite, struggle to communicate effectively. Its a shame really as Newtown struggles for decent restaurants. I would need to see at least 3 stars for me to visit again.

Awful. When the boss is not there the place is not the same. Visited on a Monday night. Ordered the Lamb Tikka Masala with rice and Nan. The rice and Nan were very nice. The lamb was so tough I left most of it. It seems that the place is run by youngsters on a Monday, and it just does not work. Nobody asked me why I left the main dish. I’ve learnt my lesson!

I ordered a takeaway from Balti House. The flavors are amazing. Chicken Jalfrezzi an Chicken Vindaloo. My friend also loved it. Great food! Thank you.

El plato principal de pollo al curry verde era una salsa delgada con una pequeña cantidad de pollo y dos o tres verduras pequeñas. Media taza de té de arroz. Falta de sabor. Extremadamente caro y decepcionante. Básicamente una sopa. Los entrantes eran variables, las alitas de pollo eran muy agradables al menos, y la cerveza embotellada estaba fría. A pesar del servicio amable, debe haber un mejor restaurante tailandés para la comida en Brighton.
