The best restaurants serving Indian food in England

After not seeing Abdul for many years we walked into the restaurant 29/11 and it was only like yesterday warm welcome food absolutely excellent and service from the boys was above and beyond there very polite and always a smile even though the evening got busy Thank for a warm welcome we will be back soon Donna and nic (Jimmy white) xxx

I would give this zero stars if there was an option! The restaurant may serve better food but I doubt it, we had a takeaway and it was awful. I’ve never seen a runny korma in my life but this one was. My dhansak was no better, or the side dishes. There were no saving graces and we wished we hadn’t wasted our money on what was quite an expensive take away. Bombay potatoes were the wrong type of potato - floury and disintegrating. No fresh flavour to anything . Couldn’t have been more disappointed

Highly recommended! We were apprehensive at first because of husband's many allergies, which is why we never tried indian before. But the staff helped us out big-time and made no problem of it. The food was absolutely delicious! We'll be looking for indian food near our home in the future, after this great first contact.

We first visited this restaurant in November 2023 during an all male yearly trip to the Forest of Dean, it was that good we went again on our way home! We visited again last night and cannot reccomend this little gem enough, that's coming from someone who cooks and grew up in the trade! Great food, enjoyed always by all the group. The service is just incredible with it being a famiy run establishment, they really do go above and beyond and make you feel so very welcomed! Long may Curry leaf continue and we look forward to visiting again every November as a tradition!

Great naans, that's about it! On the surface it seems to be all right, but when you ask for anything there is a problem. They were out of larger, they were out of lemonade, they were out of prawns etc The gents toilet had a sticker on it saying 'out of oder' And then we came to the bill, they said card machine was not working1

Visited tonight with my dad, great food and great service! I would definitely visit again. I had a lmab dish which was perfect and my dad had beef, we shared a chicken rice which was perfect!

Niet druk, maar prima betaalbaar en het was best lekker en meer dan genoeg. Ik had een soort limonade erbij...

Have been to this restaurant many times and I’ve never had a bad meal. Food was fantastic, service was great and staff were very friendly. The host is a total gentleman as usual and makes you feel welcome as soon as you walk through the door.

I had not been to my regular Indian/Bangladeshi for a long time due to Covid. I tried their take away tonight. Very nice prawn puri starter and lamb tikka main + excellent sag aloo. Old reliable.

I had a t/away about 6 30 saturday night and it was busy. Nice new carpet, friendly staff. So what about the food? (I had a Chicken Methi madras hot, boiled rice, plain nan & onion bhaji). The bhaji was v good as was the nan, great portion of fresh rice. The methi was hotter than expected but I liked it apart from it being a bit salty. Good quality of meat). 2 pops & dips on the house. The draft kingfisher was excellent. Overall v good

Tried a few different Indian restaurants recently (after falling out of love with our local) and we had a fantastic experience at Cafe Masala last night. Best curry I've had in a long time, great service from all the staff and nothing to fault, will definitely be returning. Keep it up!

Delicious food ! Decided to give them a try on a Saturday evening. Ordered the chicken vindaloo , special rice , papadoms, chutney , pickles and mint . Everything was so good . Just have in mind the vindaloo is very spicy 🌶️. Very nice staff and quick service, totally recommend!

The staff were lovely and the food was amazing!
