The best restaurants serving Indian food in England

I’m rating this as a good purely because some of the dishes were disappointing, which we did feedback to the chef. We came as a group of 4 friends for Sunday lunchtime. Lovely venue in Radlett, right near Aldenham country park - where we had a walk first to whet our appetite! Place was busy with lots of Indian families so is clearly popular restaurant with the Indian contingent. Presentation of food was excellent as was the attentive staff. And there was plenty of choices for vegetarians. Disappointing were some of the dishes. The starters : crispy Okra which was a lot more batter than okra, and Mogo chips which were a bit hard. The broccoli starter was a really lovely combination of flavours but the Cardom flavour overpowered the broccoli. The main Aloo Baigan with the. Any aubergines looked great but completely lacked flavour. Highly recommend the peshwari naans, Dhal Makhani, fresh passion fruit juice with Indian spices. But staff were attentive and the tables were well spaced so you never get crowded even when restaurant was busy.

Amazing food, lovely prompt service. Highly recommend the Chicken Garlic which was perfect. Waiter was excellent, thank you Hassan

The Best Indian restaurant we have ever dined at. Fresh food, delicious, hot / lovely wine and very friendly staff in a lovely cosy restaurant

Excellent food and excellent service

Food arrived hot and on time. Vindaloo was great, very hot and king prawn butterfly is the best around by far

Really enjoyed the whole evening all good staff really well presented very smart will be going again

Booked a table two days ago to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary & my first time out of the house after having hip surgery three weeks ago. Shown to our table as soon as we arrived & although we were made aware of a large party being there it was indeed noisey as we were seated. No problem as it was a wedding party & lovely to see everyone enjoying this superb restaurant. We ordered drinks which came swiftly served by a very friendly waiter. Ordered our starters & main meals which followed about 15 minutes later. Large tasty portions of Chicken Jalfrezi & Chicken Shashlik served with Mushroom Rice & Peshwari Nan…beautifully presented & served by the waiter. My husband wished the bride & groom best wishes for the future & they very kindly sent over wedding cake for us both….lovely gesture & even lovelier cake! The restaurant was very full & although the waiters were busy they were friendly & courteous throughout their interactions with diners. A thoroughly enjoyable dining experience & would highly recommend Mach to anyone who loves Indian Cuisine at a very reasonable price. We will return!

Yet again food was excellent, i have never had a bad meal or take away yet from here. Sadly visit totally let down by the staff. Table booked for 7.45 finally got sat down at 8.45, for some reason though this was our fault! No apologies, food thrown on the table, come on Masala Hut, you are better than that

Quick good service by the girls in here. Enjoy my food. They need to get some new chairs

Nearly two hours to get delivery. I'm.a regular at spice inn and Ajmeer Tandoori before the fire. Shocking service.

Wow!!!! Absolutely gorgeous takeaway tonight. We were warned when we ordered of the wait time. Sadly, it was even longer BUT... We rang to check all was well. It then arrived five minutes later with a very apologetic driver who explained how busy they were. Then, whilst we were eating, had a follow-up call to check it had arrived - again, very apologetic, admitting they were busy but that this was below their own standards. Makes such a difference... And the food was stunning. Cannot fault at all. For no particular reason, we've not had a takeaway for a while but we will so definitely be back...soon!!!!

We were staying at YHA Eyam which is a couple of miles away, and they delivered dinner for 25… a massive order. It was absolutely fantastic. Great selection of chicken, lamb and veggie dishes were all top notch. Great value too. Thanks to all at Curry Cottage.

Wonderful food. Friendly and very efficient staff.

Had take away from here recently. The curry was very greasy and had no flavour to it. Small portion and very expensive. Very friendly staff though!

Great place great people great food defo recommend
