The best restaurants serving Indian food in Castle Leicester East Midlands

A gem of a place on the edge of Leicester city centre. Parking limited however. You can play English pool, snooker, full bar and an on-site Indian restaurant, all on the same floor.

Great service by Mahi and great food. Overall had a great time

Tuvimos una cena encantadora en Friends. La comida era deliciosa, el servicio era genial y el ambiente encantador. Había algunas grandes opciones de menú que no se ven en todas partes y realmente disfrutamos de nuestra comida.

I like the review written by spark dialogue, he or she really know their stuff and I am guessing that they are Bangladeshi or Indian or possibly Pakistani because they speak with authority it is very well written and sums up what's wrong with the place very well. The so-called award winning lamb Jaipur which they spell wrongly I have had only the once because it was so lacking in spices. It tastes slightly of red chili powder slightly garlicky but tastes absolutely nothing like an authentic traditional lamb curry. This place is not an Indian restaurant and they shouldn't be advertising themselves as an authentic Indian restaurant. The food is Anglo Bangladeshi and a very bad example of it to boot . I don't think there's a single dish on the menu that is actually authentic Indian or authentic Bangladeshi or authentic Pakistani. I started eating Indian food in 1965 and I've been cooking it on and off since 1970 so I do have a few years experience. I am trying to state what's wrong with the food, basically the chefs have no idea how to cook properly. Or if they do know how to cook they are not doing it There is no blending of spices and ingredients where The end product is a kind of Flavour explosion and is far greater than the sum of all the individual parts or components or ingredients. Do the chefs ever eat their own food and if so what do they think of it compared with say how their wives or sisters or aunties etc cook at home. There is no subtlety or blending if you want it spicy but you end up with a dish full of red chili powder. I will never visit the place again, there are so many better places in Leicester. How did they win any awards. That really puzzles me did they employ another chef especially for the competition or did they get their wifes' to do the cooking, beats me a complete enigma. There's a restaurant next door to them that vastly better I cannot say how much better it is. It would be like comparing a skateboard with the Rolls-Royce Or MacDonald's with a top Parisienne restaurant. Avoid avoid avoid at all costs you have been warned you have been advised

Encontré este restaurante en TA y le di una oportunidad, no había vuelto a reservar una mesa, pero no hay problema alrededor de las 7 pm del viernes por la noche. Conseguí un puré de langostino rey comenzado, que era genial seguido de main main con arroz y ajo naan La comida era increíble y recomendaría encarecidamente, el servicio era bueno recomendando mi plato principal

Brilliant meal and food ! The decor may be tired and the layout a little school dinner hall but put that to one side as the food is something special. We had a range of dishes as starters and they were soon cleared though, with the mains all being eaten and everyone enjoyed their dishes. A rice portion would be fine for two people but it all depends how hungry you are! There’s an outdoor BBQ out back which is fired up on a Sunday with lots of outdoor seating. Will certainly be returning soon.

Loved the ambience. The smell of food lingers all over the dining hall. So good. The foods were great also the service! Thank you!

Mal servicio, las comidas principales salieron con al menos 10 minutos de diferencia. Tuve que ir a pedir las bebidas. Biryani era insípido y aunque dicho vegano salió con yogur lácteo. No volvería a visitar.

I ordered online but food was amazingly seasoned and really succulent, the rotti was amazing and went really well with my curry.

Nos gustó, muy auténtico, el personal era genial, nos dieron un capricho extra con un nuevo encurtido que estaban probando era muy bueno. En cuanto a la comida, fuimos a platos inspirados en África oriental, cordero y pollo. Mi esposa pensó que no había suficiente cordero, el mío estaba bien. Encantadora especia. Muy bien.

We are 18 people from Peterborough all with onion and Garlic. But telling you food was super. Worth driving 1 hours. All it's so good. Sambhar was top of the world.

Waitresses are the best thing about this place unfortunately not the food

THIS PLACE IS CLOSE DOWN! I’ve booked a table through the website and got a confirmation but turned up and it is closed down!! The number on the website goes straight to voicemail! Do not book this place as it is not open

we order from here alot, food has always been fine and delivery is always on time.

I recently tired chicken 65 biryani, to be very frank it was amazing, the spices and the amount of chicken available for perfect, will definitely recommend people to try that.
