The best restaurants serving Indian food in England

There are enough old favourites together with newer speciality dishes here to satisfy most connoisseurs of Indian cuisine. In this reviewer's experience, the uniformly high standard of food and pleasant surroundings make it one of the best subcontinental dining experiences in the city, offering both excellent value for money and a wider choice of dishes than some trendier establishments. Although the decor perhaps lacks a few authentic flourishes, this allows one to focus on what really matters and the courtesy of the staff can't be faulted.

We came here for a collection curry on Tuesday and it was excellent. As always, happily greeted by a member of staff before them going to get our takeaway. Outstanding food, excellent customer service. Always love coming here as I know it’ll always be great food and the staff are always very friendly.

This restaurant doesn't exist! OpenTable needs to do a better job, as the restaurant where this place is had no idea about my reservation. It is called Tongi and luckily, they accommodated my timing.

In my opinion it is the best Indian restaurant in the town. All the focus is on the great food and excellent service. Not the pretentious things that other restaurants focus on

Fabulous curry last time and we thought great at last a lovely takeaway curry. BUT....... tonight a tale of two halves. My jalfrezi was excellent but my husband ordered chicken tikka dopiaza VINDALOO hot. Sadly sooo disappointing. No spice /heat whatsoever. He will not be keen to order from here again.

Staff were very friendly and the atmosphere was good. The food was tasty however the portions were a bit small. My biggest/only complaint would be the price seemed too steep.

The food was very Delirious.... 🤍

Not a good as my previous experience - lamb was not tender, and rice was dry and pretty tasteless. Will try an alternative Indian next time I'm in Ponte

Plush interior, immaculate cutlery, great Indian food, service great. Reasonably priced

Very tasty food and drinks. Excellent service. We had the Sunday Buffet, a selection of starters, three different curries, three side dishes and naans.

As always a wonderful take away, my brother in law travelled from Canada and requested a meal from The Shahjan and It didn’t disappoint. Marty boy is very happy👍👍😆

the food is alright but i found a piece of hair in my rice

The staff are so understanding the chefs cooking on point all in all great food

Delicious food, good prices, large portions

We were told to try this great restaurant by a friend & they were right. The staff were friendly & polite. The food was delicious, I had lamb & it was so tender. Would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who likes Indian food. Well worth a visit.
