The best restaurants serving Indian food in West Oxfordshire South East

Whilst this business is new and developing our dinner was a huge success. There were 19 of us and spirits were high. The food was delicious and there was plenty of it. We were waited on beautifully, no one was left without food or drink. There is a very high chance of a return visit. I believe they plan to decorate to give the place a bit more atmosphere which will be good. Nice to be treated so well.

We have just moved to the area and we found this place on a walk so we sat outside and ordered samosas cake and coffee I must say the somosas were the best ever the staff were welcoming and so freindly we are planning to go for lunch next fri we would definitely recommend you give it a try 😀

Habibs was amazing; it is such a shame it's closed down now. They should be proud of the food they were making.

Not as grand as it appears on the website, but agreeable and comfortable. Service very pleasant but inexpert. Waiter did not know how to pour wine, nor for that matter, water: one glass overfilled. And after the meal, clearing remining food snd stacking dishes should not be done at table. Papadoms unevenly cooked. Food presentation fine, sensible quantities of decent but somewhat underflavoured dishes. Could benefit from some competition

Hello - well let me start by saying i never really leave reviews and i never want to be the person who comes across negative- food business is tough - but hold on because here it comes we arrived late in the beautiful Chipping Norton and looking for a place to sit and eat five hungry people after travelling for hours - Spice Of India 🇮🇳 was open three other people in there - lets take a chance after choosing our food the owner who certainly kept popping out from nowhere ( undermining a very nervous staff member) tried to force a starter on one off us with the line “ its very cheap” the staff were extremely erratic/ nervous - my partner asked for a drink sorry dont have those okay just a sparkling water out came the bottle place on the table no sparkling just this still 🙃 really its an indian Faulty Towers everyone of us could not believe no matter what the curry was we choose tasted like a bowl of sugar so so so sweet - my family member also mentioned the Coke had a greasy film on it ? - the worse curry weve all ever eaten ( and i have been to some very off track interesting places around the world) - now the final piece i found very odd/ and funny the boss reappears when its time to pay we will spilt the bill in half so £40 each he then says so £45 £45 almost shouting no £40 as the bill reads - then gives my nephew a piece of paper with write a review 🙃 So should be renamed The NOSPICE OF INDIA and i am seriously thinking of writting a comedy series based on this anyone want to join in … If you love LED RED LIGHTS - CANDY FLOSS CURRIES - and very erratic service and then told to tip this has your name all over it …

Excellent food the surprise dish was very nice and tasty. My wife and the kids loved the food. Will be visiting again. 5 star all the way. Thank you Shaan team.

The food and service is utterly disgusting. We booked in for the 30th September. However, when we arrived we were told that our table was given to someone else and that we'd have to wait another 10 mins. 10 minutes passed and we were told another 15 minutes. If it wasn't a birthday meal we would've left and gone to the Shaan Restaurant. When we sat down, we asked questions about some dishes on the menu only to be responded back with, "you're white, stick to the mild dishes". I was gob smacked with the waiter. I requested for the manger but the waiter had already stormed off muttering "honky" under his breathe. Disgusting and racist. I got up and immediately left with my family. Never again.

I have tried many curry’s from Bilash and never been dissatisfied, great service as always. Delivery always prompt and the food is full of flavour!

I ordered a takeaway, including a starter, main meal and sides. It came promptly and hot. It was the most delicious takeout I have had in a very long time!

Lovely friendly staff, made us feel very welcome! Most importantly great food & a good selection on the menu! Would definitely go again if we was local!

Fantastic food, quick service, and a cozy atmosphere. The staff was friendly, and every dish was flavorful and fresh. Perfect for a casual dinner or celebrating a special occasion!

when he phoned he couldn't hear me I phoned back he put the phone down, it was delivered to the wrong address when I got the meal the bag was split because the curry leaked, the prawns was hard and chewy cooked to much was not happy

Easy ordering process and fast delivery. Always delicious food and generous portions from The Bayleaf.

First visit this year. Not impressed. Despite having booked a table it appeared we were not expected and a seemingly offhand waiter, after surveying the room for some time pointed to a table just inside the entrance. That was our welcome! A very pleasant waitress took our drinks order and these were delivered promptly, as were our popadoms. Our main courses took a while to arrive and throughout this time the door opened for more customers numerous times, each time emitting a wind- tunnel effect, and crowds of people waiting to be seated, often leaving the door open. Our main courses were excellent, however there did not appear to be any deserts or coffee. We were happy to leave.

Visited the newly opened buffet. Wasn’t very appealing, like a cheap cafe with poorly laid out buffet section at front of restaurant. Selection of starters bland and not very appealing. Curries were okay, nothing really very flavoursome. Desserts hidden at back, icecream we were told, didn’t try them. Can BYO drink, with soft drinks included in price of buffet. Music playing was too loud and quite irritating, couldn’t hear each other speak. Fine if you want to gorge on curry cheaply.
