The best restaurants serving Indian food in Millfield Sunderland North East

Booked this meal for a pre meal before seeing Wicked a couple of months in advance. Arrived at 5pm and only 2 other people in , by 6 restaurant was full. Reception on arrival was nice - we were seated no choice of table. No one discussed any specials but we managed to order from menu own choices. I would have liked someone to ask if our meal was ok and if we wanted any additional drinks but this never happened. Food was very nice - I did think a sauce with the tikka would have been nice then when server was clearing away noticed one on table - we weren’t informed what it was or that it was there so not touched. Pricing was reasonable 4 meals / sides and drinks came to just over £100 - they did put a service charge on of £9 without asking or stating it was going to added which is a shame as we always tip but don’t like enforcement. Ambiance was nice in restaurant and very close up the Empire (2 mins walk) and 5 mins walk from bridges car park.

We come here weekly for our takeaway. Service is always great and food is top notch and restaurant standard. We have tried other Indians both takeaways and restaurants and we keep saying..can’t beat Forhans!

Rude owner, wanted to charge for water for a child! Lots of empty lockers but won’t let people pay to use them then charge for use of cues . Only re joined as spot white closed and thought the owner might be more hospitable, will not return ever. Do not recommend at all.
