The best restaurants serving Indian food in Selby Yorkshire and The Humber

On my birthday, we always go to Akbars in York as it's my favourite Indian restaurant outside of Bradford. I was disappointed to find it is closed and I really couldn't decide where else I wanted to go. Living in Sherburn In Elmet I've been to most of the Indian restaurants in this area, and while they are all OK, I have never been blown away by any of them. I stumbled upon Jahan Lounge just through doing a Google search on local Indian restaurants and thought I'd chance it, and thank God I did. The restaurant is tucked away in Scarthingwell Golf Club. There is ample parking too, which is handy. you need to go upstairs in the club building to get to the restaurant. The restaurant is tastefully presented with a nice ambience, and there is a good selection of drinks for all at the bar. The food is literally to die for. It is up there with the best curries I have ever had. I had lamb chops for starters, which were perfectly cooked and so tasty. For my main, I had a keema karahi, which wasn't on the menu, but when I asked, the waiter said, " No problem, sir, we can make that for you" The curry is what blew me away. It is probably in the top three meals I've ever had in my life. The chef here is at the top of their game. If you like a good curry, this is the place to go. I am so glad I have found Jahan lounge because I no longer need to drive all the way to Bradford anymore, I have found a hidden gem right on our doorstep.

Absolutely fantastic...found a real gem here..amazing flavours and some of the best service I've ever expierneced...Will be back regularly

Fabulous little Bengal restaurant. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Great pickle tray, poppadoms were fresh and crispy. For main I tried the signature dish of Venison Nagawala. First bite had a beautiful kick of heat, the venison was very tender and cooked beautifully. The sauce was delicious, with the split lentils to give it a bit of texture. For the spicy lover, this is one definitely to try. The Garlic naan was good ,but the vegetable pilau rice was one of the nicest I have had. Fabulous little restaurant, definitely one to try if in the area.

Just had a takeaway and impressed last used this place a couple of years ago and the food was bland. They have definitely upped their game. Great starter main with free masala chips two popadoms and two chappi. Chicken dansak 8.95 onion baji 3.95 chappi 1.00 each and popadoms 90 pence each.

Not sure why Trip Advisor still claiming this is the top Indian eatery in Tadcaster. It was closed when we went out of our way to visit and there was no sign of it re-opening

This place takes your takeout order online. When you go to pick up,the place isn’t open . You are then told to go to their other place, which is in Beverley. You are given an option to pay by card online or cash on pickup, always put CASH . Takes a long time to get money back for card. Payment!

Had the buffet. Great selection of foods for all 3 courses. Most mains contained green chillies, but there was at least one mild dish. Left comfortably stuffed.

Always had lovely meals here. Delivery and eating in best Indian i have been to. Baji’s are to die for. Such a shame that they have closed down. Going to miss them so much!

I have visited this restaurant frequently over the last 15 years under two different ownerships. We have celebrated special events here, my husband has his 40th, my daughter her 21st and numerous meals on Christmas Day. To say the quality of the food and customer service has plummeted is an understatement. We were served cold dry onion Bahia and undercooked naan. This happens and I get that. But when we fed this back the manger struggled his shoulders walked off. We were told a replacement would be the same. Wow!!! Safe to say we won’t be going back

The best curry in Selby without a doubt, consistent quality at a reasonable price keep up the goid wirk guys☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺

Worst takeaway ever had in my life wrong order, presentation was shocking both curries tasted of tomatoe…. When I called up was answered by rude man with Asian dialect who could not speak English correctly Never again. Absolutely disgraceful for the money
