The best restaurants serving Asian food in Bristol, City of South West

I hate having to give a low review for what’s clearly a nice family run restaurant but our experience was less than optimal. Given the prices are quite high I don’t think this could be justified without me writing a review and giving some constructive feedback. To start the young waiter is very friendly, but because he is the only one serving he’s rushed. We didn’t get given menus when we were sat down, we were given some about 15 mins later by the older gentleman when he saw we hadn’t been given any yet. The starter took an hour to arrive. When it did it was tasty, but waiting that long for a starter kind of ruins the experience. Because there is only one waiter, there was no one checking if we were ok, or wanted any more drinks while we waited etc- which is what you would expect when the wait time was this long. We then waited another 50ish mins for mains and I didn’t enjoy mine- again the wait time ruined things. Because it was in a stone bowl it remained really hot, and I had to wait another 20 or so minutes for it to cool so I could eat. I get that this is how the dish is traditionally served and it would not have been an issue if the wait time had not been so long- but again the wait time ruined the experience. It looks to be one lady doing all of the cooking so I understand why there was a long wait- but this isn’t the way you can run a modern restaurant, especially when they are charging higher prices thank other similar standard restaurants in the area. They need far more staff in both the kitchen and front of house. The restaurant is also cash only which isn’t the most convenient. Very disappointed, especially because we went out of our way to try this place after hearing good reviews. Update- I’ve thought about this more since writing the review and realised, as has happened at other restaurants, the decent thing to do after we waited so long would be to knock a percentage off the bill or give us some free drinks. Neither were offered. So very disappointed and will stick to my usual spots from now on.

Always delicious, good selection of vegetarian and vegan options.

The best thing about this restaurant is service. Unfortunately food wasn't good. Smallest curry dish i ever had. Rice wasn't cooked well. Was very dry...sorry guys

Everything about this place is a YES. Incredible service from the moment we sat down and incredible food. A big thank you especially to Annie, a wonderful server who just made it feel like we were there for a chat. The head chef was also lovely when I thanked him for the meal. Your team is wonderful Nadu - don’t change a thing!

Really great restaurant experience. Fantastic service, excellent food, delicious beers. Had the Tongdak chicken and it was amazing - we got lots of other bits too. I think unless you're starving only one main is probably fine! But I'd highly recommend it :)

Amazing broth, lovely food and staff are always welcoming, would recommend.

went here with family had a amazing day in Bristol all decided to go to spice up your life for a authentic Indian dining experience really good service and amazing food really enjoyed it definitely be back when in Bristol

Very good food, higly recommended for vegetarians and vegans, there is an entire vegan menu. The service was excellent.

Definitely my go to place when I can’t be bothered to cook and fancy a take away. The food is super fresh and tasty and perfectly cooked.

Good quality meat and flavours, Second time I have placed order and will definitely come back for more. Would highly recommend.

This place is incredible. The food, the flavours, the vibe. A fantastic range of dishes that caters for all preferences and allergies. Marina and Rava couldn’t do enough to make sure we had a great time. We’ll be back!

He estado yendo aquí/ordenando comida para llevar de estos chicos durante años porque son absolutamente brillantes. La comida es realmente maravillosa y el servicio es impecable, especialmente Shah que siempre es atento, amable y da grandes consejos sobre los numerosos platos maravillosos. Siempre tratamos de ir al menos una vez al mes (y por el momento tienen una gran oferta en comer entre semana lunes/jueves 5). 30 - 9 . 30 por lo que consiguió un 30% de descuento en nuestra deliciosa comida habitual). ¡¿Qué es no amar?!

nothing to say except the service was second to none

Food is bang! 10/10 ... was told on the phone 45 minutes for delivery and was there in 45! Taste banging every time ... lamb sally 😍

Tuvimos una Navidad de equipo juntos en el Pheonix. Llegamos directamente del trabajo y disfrutamos de hamburguesas y la abundante selección de bebidas que se ofrecen. Fue un gran entorno relajado con un montón de opciones de comida y bebidas para elegir. El frente del equipo de la casa era acogedor, amable y no podía hacer lo suficiente por nosotros. Gracias por una gran noche - volveremos de nuevo!
