The best restaurants serving Indian food in Central St Leonards Hastings South East

Love the food at Laya. Took my mate who'd never been before for his birthday today and he was blown away. Plenty of options for vegetarians/pescetarians like me as well as meat dishes. Try the aubergine and chickpea curry - incredible smoky, tamarind-y flavour. Also a big fan of the veggie biryani and the masala dosa. Everything is so flavourful. And there's still a lot of things on the menu I want to try, so I'll keep coming back.

We ordered a takeaway, extremely bland Makhani, my left nut has more spice. Biriani wasn't much better. Wouldn't buy again.

One of the famous Bangladeshi takeaway it’s always good quality food provided to me I’m sure everyone will enjoy this tasty food

We went to their Anniversary Dinner last night, it was very busy and had a good atmosphere. We were looked after very well all evening, the food was excellent, a homestyle menu, we had complimentary drinks and a bottle of wine. It’s our only Indian we go to, it’s the best in town!

A fabulous Tandoori restaurant, right on the seafront - great quality food, very polite and timely service, great value. As a visitor to Hastings and St Leonards (and the UK, these days), I was looking for Indian food and stumbled across this gem. Excellent quality Chicken Tilka (it’s clear their tandoor is good and hot - there’s a beautiful crust on the juicy chicken chunks!), excellent lamb curry, and I can only assume their cilantro is locally sourced, because it was super fresh and tasty. Our server was an extremely attentive and pleasant young chap who carefully trod the line between being there when you need him and being there too much with excellent judgment - top marks to that young man, who deserves great credit for his work. The only thing I can say which would improve this place is more customers - they don’t know what they’re missing!
