The best restaurants serving Indian food in Mendip South West

Wow. Booked for the Sunday buffet and was concerned that as a veggie I would probably just get a veg curry and some rice. Wow was I wrong. The Sunday buffet is not a buffet it's a banquet. I expected warming trays of various food that everyone dipped thier spoons into and piled their plates high. Wrong. There's a special menu of about 55 different dishes to choose from all included in the price. The portions are small but plenty and you can keep ordering until you are full. Plus there were some fantastic choices for vegetarians including lots of paneer which is my absolute favorite. So impressed. Every dish we ordered was exqusite. Freshly cooked and delicious. You bring your own alcohol which makes it affordable for a night out if you are on a budget. Soft drinks, puddings and poppadoms not included. That was the only negative. Poppadoms not included?? Very odd. Especially as we were encouraged to order them to start with. Er no. I am not going to fill up on poppadoms that are not included in the price, when I am doing the all inc buffet?? The service was slow but attentive and to be expected when everything is cooked freshly. Fabulous evening. Great value. Thank you!

Went in based on other people's Google reviews, and they appeared to have a good South Indian menu. Given a table for one, far end (from door) next to the bar/ till. Food: well prepared, tasted excellent. But, only 4 pieces of chicken in the Kerala Chicken Curry. Asked for water 3x, finally got 1 glass. One of the staff needed an extra chair for another group. With permission, my jacket was placed on the chair by a large empty table. Confused as to why he could just not have picked up that chair, which was exactly the same distance from him as the one with my jacket 🤔. Went to the washroom while waiting for my meal order to arrive. My drink, cutlery, and empty plate were still in place. Returned a few seconds later, my chair was given to another customer. However, if it was taken, I feel it shows the character and personality of the customer base (and the staff) of this restaurant. There was another empty chair closer to this new customer. Therefore, my suspicion is that this is a family, relatives, and friends (of the staff and owners) only restaurant. Atmosphere: it's only for family, extended relatives, and friends of the owners/ staff. So, yes, anyone else who feels or felt that they weren't welcome, I would say they were/ are correct, and most likely you were/ are not on the friends list with this group. Would not recommend it to anyone else at any time. There are plenty of other restaurants from the Indian subcontinent serving South Indian food.

Order from here regularly. Out of the blue they’re demanding extra cash for delivery on top of the online delivery fee. Unhelpful when discussed on the phone.

Booked a table in the restaurant on Saturday evening. The restaurant wasn't busy. Food was outstanding, service was very good. Would recommend and will certainly be back.

Reasonably priced exalent food and service

Ayer llevé a mi pareja a Khai khai por su cumpleaños y toda la experiencia me pareció corta de regalo. La comida era buena pero el servicio era terrible, teníamos hasta 4 camareros diferentes quitando platos de nuestra mesa pero ninguno de ellos, ni la encargada, se nos acercó una vez para preguntarnos cómo estaba todo, si necesitábamos algo más, más bebidas, postres, etc. .. Finalmente después de esperar siglos tuvimos que pedir la factura nosotros mismos. Completamente ignorado durante toda la noche, diciendo que no nos lo tomamos como algo personal porque fuimos testigos de un mal servicio también ofrecido a las mesas que nos rodean. Definitivamente no volveremos, hay un montón de restaurantes en Newcastle que garantiza una buena experiencia gastronómica de un cliente, este no es uno de ellos me temo!

Astonishingly bad! Pre-ordered a group meal for delivery well in advance (the day before it was required and paid upfront). £82 for a meal for 3, so pricey. It didn’t arrive. Chased by phone - it eventually turned up 40 minutes late and was all but inedible bar the poppadoms. Food was tepid, dried up, and meat dishes were so chewy you couldn’t eat them, rice was clumpy, naans limp and sag agloo tasted heavily of smoke. Dreadful. Called to complain. Manager agreed a partial refund which I’ve never seen despite chasing up, and my email remains unanswered. Bad enough the evening with friends was totally ruined but to not even follow up with an agreed refund is appalling. Don’t waste your money, eat elsewhere.

Living in Glastonbury we are between wells and street with lots of Indian restaurants to choose from we have tried them all with mixed reviews .. Indian Ocean as it’s now called is always the most reliable .. would highly recommend them … very authentic Indian food every time

Absolutely amazing meal last night. Great value for money as part of their Wednesday/Sunday offer. Service was excellent from the friendly and helpful team. We will be back!

Delicious food. Good service. Affordable prices. Great value for thoughtfully prepared food. Generous portions and fresh chilli swell-made lime pickle.

We stumbled into Masala Grill and don't regret it at all! The staff were extremely friendly, but didn't bother you every 2 minutes to ask if everything is okay. The portions are big, came quickly, and were very tasty. Absolutely no complaints, will definitely visit again!

We finally enjoyed a really nice curry but they gave us the wrong takeaway to start with. We had to go all the way back to swap it for the correct one. Make sure you check your bag before you leave the restaurant! I wasn’t very happy that they messed it up although they were very apologetic and gave us a couple of complimentary items to try and redeem themselves.

Ordered a takeaway, special rice bland and tasteless,vegetable korma tasteless watery and bland,aloo gobi tastless and bland,chips thin fries soggy and horrible.only thing was palatable was the naan bread. Most of the .eal ended up in the bin ,total waste of money.

Lovely food, reasonable prices, take away or home delivery. If waiting for your food pub next door. Jointly run with king kebab so two menus to choose from.
