The best restaurants serving Indian food in England

Since moving North, I’ve struggled to find a decent Indian restaurant. After a few suggestions from friends & work colleagues, I thought I’d give Indus a go. First impressions. A warm welcoming, busy (always a good sign, especially mid week, but not overpacked, a decent atmosphere) and sat down quickly after a beer at the bar. Staff were on point. Both the owner of the restaurant and the young staff members were incredibly polite and up for a chat. They gave recommendations and showed they actually care about their work which was refreshing. (Especially the young gentlemen with glasses, unfortunately I forgot his name). There were plenty of food options. We went for a meat starter and then a curry split between us with some sides. This, with a couple of drinks certainly was enough for me, still in a food coma now! Cooked perfectly and very generous portions, at no point could I think of areas for improvement for this visit. A real positive experience all round, good food, good vibes and certainly good value for money. Would 100% recommend to friends & family. Appreciate the service, thank you again!

friendly welcome, service and food was excellent we will return!! the nann bread was superb best we have had!!!!!!!!!!

Ordered here for a family we really enjoyed it all of the curries wer piping hot full of flavours would highly recommend

Food was OK but no chilli heat at all considering the lamb was supposed to be medium hot. The chicken was in fact sweet. Portion sizes were half what we expected and half the lentils had spilt in the bag during transit. Not overly impressed. Very disappointed as we were expecting great things from the reviews we had read. However, delivery was fast, just half an hour.

Very good service and food , Had a very good Indian breakfast this morning. Ghatihya, Jelabi and Khaman Dhokla. Try these and you will be happy all week. Freshly cooked Chilli Paneer and Chana too, very tasty takeaway.

Nice food. I’ve been here a few times and the takeaways are consistently good. The restaurant itself is a bit ‘school dinner hall’ type decor, but no faulting the food or service. The decor could do with an update, and not really a place for a couple’s intimate meal, but that’s not going to stop me going back over and over again. On the takeaway front, a biryani, a side, a drink and a naan is around £20.

Amazing place! Authentic dosa from South India can't wait to try the rest of the menu. Awesome service too, highly recommend!

I'm a very good customer and been going to this restaurant for years. And always recommend. I was very shocked and disappointed.nb 1 how I was treated after finding chewing gum in my onions. Yes a little apology from the waiters then the meals came out all three did not taste right the waiter tasted all three meals and agreed and took them back .I feel I should report them .I would of expected them to contact me for explanation.

Fuimos con amigos en la noche. Los currys estaban absolutamente deliciosos. ¡Mi amiga comió un balti de verduras y comentó que era el mejor que ha comido! El personal es encantador y atento. . Hemos visitado muchas veces y siempre he sido excelente. Esta casa de curry es una joya pura 💎

No time stated when ordering that we could see. Very prompt.

Excellent food with friendly service, a must try!

Best local food by miles always fresh and full of flavour. I have been ordering Currys from here a while now can't fault them. Big portions and tasteful what more can you ask for 👍🙏

My wife and myself had a great meal everything cooked to perfection and at a very reasonable price

Lovely small restaurant. Food was fantastic and the service was great. Caters to family groups of any size!

I visited this restaurant with 2 of my friends just before Christmas. After buying 3 alcoholic drinks and 6 poppadoms to start we ordered our mains. We ordered a main curry for 2 to share and I am a vegetarian so I requested the main korma without no chicken. I was told I was not able to do this I was confused so we asked for a manager. On the managers arrival he told me the same again that two adults could not share and my korma was not classed a main without chicken. This shocked me as I had never attended any curry house before where we wasn’t allowed to do so… I then told the manager again that I didn’t understand why the korma wasn’t classed as a main simply because I didn’t want any meat as a vegetarian I was completely offended when he then turned round and told me to “Order something else then” how unprofessional at this point I am getting very frustrated with him too as this is just ridiculous, he then continues to tell me that two adults cannot share a curry - I then ask him why? The only reason he can give me is the fact it says it in the menu in SMALL PRINT at the bottom of the pages. I am then asking why should we have to order EXTRA food that we aren’t going to eat? It will just go to waste - waste of money waste of food!!! I had visited Voujon the WEEK before with my partner and I was able to share a korma WITH NO CHICKEN just fine!!!! He then suggested vegetable curry for myself which again I refused as I want korma simply without the meat? What is so hard about that? At this moment again confused as I was in the SAME restaurant the previous week doing the same!!! Korma curry with NO MEAT!! In addition to this after speaking to a 5 person party who were in the restaurant at the same time, 2 of them was also sharing a curry which is actually laughable because you have the manager telling us we can’t do that and the table opposite who have ordered curries to share!!! I am absolutely appalled by this and in shock as I have visited here plenty of times and never had this treatment. Absolutely disgusting behaviour unprofessional staff & they need to make their mind up about the rules on the menu !!! We will never be returning to this place again!!!
