The best restaurants serving Asian food in Colchester East of England

Have discovered this recently, highly recommended, the food is so authentic and fresh, and fantastic value - absolutely top quality street food - every Wednesday and Friday on Culver Street market, look forward to returning regularly for a Friday lunchtime treat.

Always treasure trove of Gurkha history on display in a fantastic location. Great selection of beers including Nepals Everest beer. Food is wonderful authentic, set price, no choice apart from vegetarian or meat (chicken & goat) for simplicity. Beautifully cooked and presented, and order more if it’s not enough for you at no extra cost. Great service as expected.

Place is amaising, food, service and..

Great food, best onion bahjees in town!

First visit to this Indian restaurant and we were not disappointed the food was good and well presented. The only negative was the service which was very hit and miss and the restaurant was smaller than I expected. Overall I enjoyed our experience and it's the food that is important, I would visit again.

fantastic flavour and texture, highly recommended

We visited for a birthday on a Tuesday night. There were people in the restaurant which we were surprised about as it was a weekday night. There was a nice atmosphere and the staff were very attentive. Lovely surroundings and nice and clean. We chose the set menu which was plentiful and tasty. Reasonably priced for the quality of food and bottle of wine. We will visit again

After looking at the reviews, we head out to the restaurant and unfortunately it was a bad experience & a costly one. We were given a table ( 5 of us ) , the initial impression of the interior looked lovely, the auto rickshaw parked inside was a good photo opportunity. Looking at the menu card like very high premium prices, but thinking they supposed to be tasty food, enough for all, we ordered about 10 starters, all came late and not hot, a portion of rolls (2) costs an eye watering £7 ( it's 75p each usually) £7 is way exaggerated price that wasn't proper ceylon rolls either.. the pork dish also didn't taste any good and very small ( yet highly priced ) alongside the spicy fried squid,that was bland with peppers on top. Moving on to drinks, the glasses were full of ice and 330ml can soft drink that costing over £5, the ordered wine glases were OK, standard. Main menu, we were told there are no mutton dishes served,eventhough menu card said & moreover there was no biriyani dishes was on the menu, there should be no srilankan restaurants without biriyani, to our surprise options were limited, so we ordered chicken kothu, again it tool nearly an hour to serve ( the restaurant was about 20%full) and local parking had 2 hour limit we expected the lunch would not take 2 hours but there was lot of waiting, eventually the kothu main was served , surprise again, far small potion of it,it's enough for a child but not adults,we had to hurriedly eat and leave without feeling full or content, the kothu was spicy but lacked ingredients. The bill was in our view, based on places we have eaten srilankan food was double & it was a bad choice going to this place. We don't think the food & drink served both in quality and quantity justified of the price was charged and the unacceptable delays in serving food. Sorry I would give no stars for ruining affer family get together Sunday lunch. But the 2 stars for the friendly waitress.

Food is always amazing here. Was just sitting and talking with friends and wasn't pressured to leave or made to feel unwelcome. Just left to enjoy the evening..

I do NOT recommend this place at all. This used to be my favourite place for food. 28/3/25, I ordered a delivery through their website at 8pm. Took the payment but no confirmation message. It is now 10pm. Still no confirmation message and cannot get through to the company to see what is happening. I even tried to call on my partners phone and it rings but no one answers. NOT HAPPY AT ALL! I really hope I get my money back!!!!!!!
