The best restaurants serving Indian food in South Tyneside North East

Very friendly staff, lovely atmosphere very inviting. Only popped by for a drink but would definitely visit again for food as it looked amazing

Visited in 2023 and 2025 and always been great food and service

Made to feel welcome straight away, nothing was to much trouble, food was excellent, if I lived nearer it would be my new local

We have dined here many times and again tonight as a family of 6, everything was lovely and would highly recommend the Spice garden.

The best curry in the North East. You won't be disappointed with any dish from the curry centre. Me and my family have been going here for over 35 years and they've never let us down. Family owned with the friendliest team of people and the tastiest curry dishes going, I cant speak highly enough of the curry centre centre 🔥

missed some of the order didn't receive nan bread

I was recommended this restaurant by a family member who lives in the area and by did they select the right place for us. The food was absolutely beautiful and the service really top drawer. I would highly recommended this to anyone wanting authentic Indian cuisine set in a gorgeous building with magnificent decor. We will be returning again very soon soon for sure.

We like to try different types of curries, something that sounds a bit different than plain. Bombay Babu fit the bill for this. We utilise their own site to take advantage of any discounts. The taste of our takeaways couldn’t be faulted, nor the speedy delivery, however the ratio of rice to lack of madras sauce was way out. You also have to order a can of pop with this meal (we didn’t want one) and they forgot to bring it. The Babus Salt and Chilli Pottika bowl was the highlight, worth a try.

Nice indian restaurant on shields high street (ocean road) good food pretty standard but nice and the staff are friendly...nice and clean worth a visit!

The last time I was here it was the Royal and previously the Zolsa about 30 years ago We had a great meal I had King Prawn Vindaloo and Fish Barji to start. I couldn’t fault it.. 10/10

Collected the best family sharer box last night, unreal! Packed full of taste, highly recommended. Ready to collect in 10 minutes.

10/10 Perfect. Lovely food. Everything spot on! Thank you very much. Highly recommended.

Ordered 2 deliveries last week worst curry I have ever had chicken not cooked properly asked for a medium got a madras to hot terrible.

Good food , highly recommended 😁

Arrived and met with a friendly waiter.we ordered the specials and even though there was only us and another table occupied the service was disgusting. We waited 25 minutes for our starter and we asked if our main meal could be bagged to go. We waited another 30 minutes and then went to pay with still no main meal. We repeatedly asked and was told it was on its way, we asked if we could just pay for the starters and leave the main meal. We had now been in the restaurant for over 1 hour. No apology offered!!!! Left feeling very hungry and extremely disappointed. Felt they were prioritising takeaway orders over the restaurant orders.
