The best restaurants serving Indian food in Rushey Mead Leicester East Midlands

A friend bought us a set of meals from this enthusiastic maker of Indian foods. We have just bought a second box of meals that was even better than the first. They have just teamed up with Sajeev Nair, a Michelin starred chef, to create three new meals that extend their already good range. My favourite was the prawn Moilee which is a creamy mild sauce with curry leaves and prawns. The chicken Malabar has a MUCH stronger flavour that tastes of ginger and is medium spicy. The vegetable korma is delightful having lots of interesting vegetables in a mild but not bland sauce. I am usually NOT a fan of chicken tikka but this WILL be ordered again - the flavours are brilliant! We are now looking forward to ordering more of our favourites and samosas as well as their breads in the next order. That you can order at 2pm on Friday and get your expertly chilled treasure box on Saturday morning is so impressive. (Well done DPD!) And the price including delivery is really good compared to your local takeaway. We paid just over £25 for enough to give two people two generous meals.

Took my parents who had come on holiday to my place..they had an awesome time..

Fantastic food with excellent flavours. thanks a lot 👍

Amazing food and curries. Laid back atmosphere.

Went for a family meal with a toddler. We ordered the both the chicken and veggie momos and crispy aubergine, which was lovely, to start. The momos were water logged and not really what I would call monos but chicken kebabs in momo wraps. The mains were ridiculously chilli. To the point where all 4 adults were unable to eat much of the food. My dad eats green chilli's with every meal and even he found the food chilli. We ordered the chicken, lamb pots and aa veg biriyani, which was also ridiculously spicey. We ordered mild veg rice which the veg was burnt. Such a shame that the food was inedible.

Excellent choice of food 👌 A bit noisy atmosphere Very hard working staff, always smiling and helpful 🙂

This place is closed down permanently now

Had lamb chops which were so chewy and couldn't be eaten , possibly suspect they were sheep. Had sizzler which lacked flavour and chicken tikka which had a sticky sweet sauce and huge chunks of onions and red pepper rather than chicken. Very disappointed! Wouldn't have again.

Amazing… loved every bit of it. Would definitely come back. Friendly staff with amazing service. Beautiful place to enjoy some Indian street food.

My husband and I decided to give Owl and Pussycat another shot on a Friday night since it's local. We’ve been before, and the food was fine - nothing to rave about, but edible. This time, we ordered the poppadom basket, which was actually great value! Then came the chilli paneer… or should I say, chilli oil with a side of paneer. I’ve seen less grease at a car mechanic’s. To top it off, the coriander looked like it had been through some things - limp, sad, and probably questioning its existence. Honestly, we won’t be rushing back for food anytime soon. Maybe just for drinks…if they promise not to garnish them with that coriander.

I find atmosphere very good food was very testy
