The best restaurants serving Indian food in England

Called in early evening made very welcome as usual. Staff very attentive nice and clean interior. Varied menu will call in at a later stage and book table rather than a take away. Can see why they are nominated for the British curry awards.

Went there for our anniversary dinner. The service and food was excellent. The king prawn tikka masala and king prawn biryani were to die for. A lovely setting for an intimate date. Highly recommend and will defo dine there again.

Food was fabulous and let me have a custom naan bread. Timing was spot on. What more could you ask for ( discount next time 😂😂)?Would recommend to anyone 👍

Fantastic! Such friendly staff and fantastic food. Always a go to locally! They have a sister restaurant called The Dilli in haslemere which is also 1st class! Thank you Bayleaf!

Not sure why all the bad reviews, I ordered delivery and it came quickly, all well cooked and tasted nice. Can’t fault them

We decided to book a family Diwali meal which was booked over the phone. When we arrived we were greeted by a lovely waiter who took us to our table. The tables were separated which we were a little annoyed about as this was not mentioned before. Another waiter came out and abruptly told us to be seated so we can order our starters. I explained we were waiting for one more family to arrive. Within minutes the same waiter came and said exactly the same thing! I was quite shocked and to be honest we should have left at that point. The rest of the family members arrived and a nice waiter took our orders. The food came out and dishes were mostly different however they had the same sauce and tasteless. Curries had big chunks of green chillies. The chicken curry was awful. The portions were small. We went on to order desserts but were given one menu between 14 of us! After a few minutes past, the same rude waiter appeared and asked us to order our desserts now as they need the tables. This was the icing on the cake for us, we paid the bill and left without ordering desserts. This is not how you treat paying customers. On top of that, the food is not great at all and we are shocked with these high rating reviews. Shocking service, shocking food and shocking communication. The only good thing was the young waiter that treated is with respect. I wouldn’t bother people with this place, we will stick to where we know!

Lads and dads visit a couple of weeks ago was fantastic. So much so, brought family back. Excellent starters and mains with unusual rice selections and other not often seen dishes. Bit pricey but you get what you pay for. Definitely worth a visit.

Great food, great atmosphere, fantastic staff

Brought a mate here last week(Sept 2023)for a meal on a Friday night and it was Delicious we had a sizzler starter to share, a main course and rice each,and one naan bread,My Chicken Madras was Amazing! Used to eat here many years ago when it was The Spice Merchant.Nice decor and lighting too.

Takeaway ordered but YoYo let us down with no delivery driver. We couldn't contact YoYo to cancel so Bombay Boulevard arranged and paid for a taxi to get our food to us. Excellent and very kind service, thank you Rafik. The food was also delicious.

Had takeaway delivered to tunnel pods camping last night. The food was absolutely amazing all dishes. I had the chicken chilli garlic. Excellent Probably the best curry ever had. Top marks to the chef. Thank you.

Alway a good meal, with friendly staff

Wow! We took advantage of the Sunday All You Can Eat buffet - all freshly cooked off the menu. The food was delicious! I loved the garlic mushrooms, onion bahji, seekh kebab, chicken tikka, meat samosas. We got to enjoy a variety of starters … because you can order whatever you want. The portions were small, which encourages you not to waste food and you can order again. The mains were also delicious. It was chicken or vegetarian options - but it was all beautifully cooked. We’ve even tried some Bangla Beer - for the full Bangladeshi experience. Thank you so much. We’d definitely come again!

We are regular customers here and the food is always outstanding. We are treated more like family than customers...never rushed...and the staff are not only polite but very friendly. Having dined in many Nepalese and Indian restaurants in the past...I can firmly recommend The Brave Gurkhas at Honiton for fantastic cuisine and friendly atmosphere.

I don't know what has happened to the Palace, The food used to be lovely, But when my wife and I went there last week the food was inedible, it was cold and greasey, we couldn't eat any of it, we refused to pay for it and the staff became extremely aggressive towards us, we paid for the drink we had and left, we won't be returning, absolutely disgusting food and experience. Stay Away.....
