The best restaurants serving Asian food in North Devon South West

Just tried 3 of the curries on offer, paneer, chicken and lamb. Really very tasty and filling. Served quickly, professional and friendly. Served with rice, salad, chutney and a superb Dahl. Pleasant seating area. Cannot rate this highly enough for basically £10 each.

Another terrible and seriously overpriced example of Thai food in North Devon. At £9.50 for noodles, with a bit of egg and vegetables, which probably cost 30p to make, plus 50p-£1.50 extra for any other ingredient, I would not have eaten here had it not been the only option at an event that I attended. Tofu is a standard ingredient in pad thai, whether you have chicken, prawn etc. or plain. Yet here, it’s an extra 50p. Ordered with prawn for an extra £1.50 and I think there were 4. Hardly any vegetables. Noodles undercooked. Not enough sauce. Not enough garnish. Serious rip off. Will never come back.

Great place on the beach, only had a hot drink but great after a long walk, apparently the curry's are fantastic but unfortunately we've missed out as it's its last day of opening. After wait till next year

Takeaway was amazing, live 40 minutes away, was still piping hot, and stunning fresh quality food. Thank you

I always order my Indian/Nepalese takeaway food here and usually the best in the whole of the Sourh West! Not your usual Bangladeshi food disguised as Indian dishes. I am a foodie frequent Brilliiance in Southall, London and I know Indian/Nepalese food very well indeed. The food is nearly always exceptional here but every now and an again it goes abit off the rails. It’s a shame really this restaurant is one of the best I have ever been to and an absolute brilliant place and our door step. The sheek kebabs are like the ones you get in India and Nepal and street food hand made ones. Except we got frozen ones this time you could tell dry freezer burn as fresh are always moist. It’s a shame it slips sometime and we always love fresh chillies over hot red chilli powder, next time I won’t order over the phone but go on with chillies in my pocket so we can have fresh chillies. But still it’s better than any other Indian/Nepalese Restaurant in the whole of the South West of England, what a find here in Barnstaple, North Devon. Chilli Paneer will blow you mind spongy paneer how it’s meant to be cooked, absolutely brilliant dish reminds my wife proper Indian food like mother used to cook. Still the best place to go on the South West of England by far we have tried everywhere and Everest Ghutka is ok our doorstep what a blessing to have.

I don’t think I’ve ever been so disappointed with a dining experience. This restaurant is absolutely tiny on the left side, and on arrival we were shoved up almost sitting with a table of two. They could hear everything we were saying and vice versa. Super uncomfortable. This place was full of locals who appeared to know the owner and staff. The waiters were rude, leaning over people to put stuff on the table. On two occasions staff touched my son on the shoulder which oversteps the mark in personal space. The food itself was super bland and tasteless. We left a lot of it. The only good things were the peshwari naan and the cobra, everything else was awful. There was a random black thing in my son’s chips. I could’ve chosen a million better places to eat and I would not recommend this place to anyone with tastebuds. If you want bland frozen samosas, tomato soup flavoured base camp curry, vile chicken tuk tuk and absolutely tasteless shashlik, this is the place for you.

Myself & my partner & my family celebrated our son's 17th birthday here yesterday evening & the service was wonderful, staff were very attentive to our needs, including bringing out my son's beautiful birthday cake! As for the food, top notch as always & extremely tasty, a special thank you to Sam, thanks to you & the rest of the staff for great service & making us feel very welcome & making my son's birthday a special one!.

Paid a second visit to this lovely little cafe in Joy St Barnstaple last week with a friend. The staff are very friendly and the food is excellent - freshly cooked so a little wait but worth it and very reasonably priced for the potion size. On both occasions the cafe was almost full so speaks for itself and I would highly recommend
