The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving Indian food

Went for a family meal with a toddler. We ordered the both the chicken and veggie momos and crispy aubergine, which was lovely, to start. The momos were water logged and not really what I would call monos but chicken kebabs in momo wraps. The mains were ridiculously chilli. To the point where all 4 adults were unable to eat much of the food. My dad eats green chilli's with every meal and even he found the food chilli. We ordered the chicken, lamb pots and aa veg biriyani, which was also ridiculously spicey. We ordered mild veg rice which the veg was burnt. Such a shame that the food was inedible.

Excellent food! Excellent service! Ordered from here a few times now and has been great!

We have been customers of kingshishr for many years and never had and issue until last night that has put a bad taste in our mouths. For a family birthday meal we put an order in and were told it would be delivered within the hour which was perfectly fine. 90 minutes later we still had no delivery, so I called to see where the delivery was and how long it would be. I was told it had just left the restaurant along side a few other deliveries. The person on the phone was short with me and quite snappy in their replies.. The take away then came roughly 15 minutes later so 105 minutes after they had previously stipulated. I understand take aways get busy and can’t always be accurate on timings however, half of our side orders were missing, and what was received was cold - practically freezing no heat was left on the food. So I called to speak to the manager but was told the manager was too busy to take a call and what makes this 100% worse the person who took the call from kingfishr actually hung up the phone whilst I was mid conversation. When I called back the person said “I thought you’d finished”. I asked for the persons name to be told “I don’t give people my name I just work at a restaurant” and again when asked to speak to the manager I was told again he was too busy so I asked for a call back which never happened. Absolutely outrageous customer service. And have been left with a bad taste. Will not return.

I'm on a tight budget and having a takeaway is a real treat. I was so disappointed with my meal. Ordered Veggie korma. Unfortunately a handful of frozen mixed veg, 1 mushroom and half a very unpleasant reheated potato was a waste of money. How hard could it be to chopped up a few fresh veg?

Love this place, iv only ever got take away option & delivered but always good Hot food & super kind friendly delivery drivers, 100%recommend

Doing well under the new owners! Keep up the improvements!

Everyone in our group thought the food was amongst the best Indian cuisine they have ever eaten. So fresh and tasty and the aroma just made your mouth water even more. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The area we sat in had a lot of hard surfaces, so it did make for a bit of a noisy environment, but this would not put us off returning for such an exceptional, wide selection of delicious dishes.

Should have known this wasn't going to be a good experience when we booked. Booked for 9.30 but asked to be earlier as they closed at 10.30am. Strange as it's advertised 11am. Arrived at 9.10 . Ordered and the food arrived. Dry, tasteless and king prawn masala sauce was sickly. Afterwards waiter wiped the table down while we sat there. Another came to take payment but was interrupted by the manager about something else. Everyone who left had the door held open but not us. I booked after reading reviews never again for us. I been to many Indian restaurants across the country and the is the worst one by far. Never again.

It is much more - it is a fine restaurant that also does takeaways. Sit in and experience the fantastic staff and fantastic decor. Cheese naan first and best. Original cheese naan, pint of lager, three lamb saag that's my order. Best curry in the Scottish borders. Amen x

The Raj Poot is always welcoming. Lovely food and great choice. Nice extras such as a baileys to end the meal. Great atmosphere

Ordered in. Quick delivery. Lamb chilli masala and a south Indian with keema nanns. Only place we use eating in or out . Best Indian food by far in Hartlepool. Friendly lovely people.

Great Indian food, also contemporary menu as well. Warm and friendly atmosphere

Had two takeaways on consecutive days, daal tadka, matar paneer, saag aaloo and chapatis. Great experience both times, food had home-cooked feeling to it, served hot and fast service. They also accommodated couple of our requests happily. Recommended. Also there is paid parking right in front of the restaurant.

we had a lovely meal here last night, really good food and extremely welcoming, definitely recommend.
