The best restaurants serving Indian food in England

Went for the first time this Sunday. Had a lamb dish and it was nice with good amount of meat. Some restaurants only give you half of what they have so hopefully they will not change the amount in future. Also the atmosphere is nice and cosy in there.

Quite possibly the best Indian meal I have ever had. When you arrive you could easily be fooled into thinking that this is just another mid-market Indian restaurant, but you would be wrong. From the moment you step inside, you are treated like royalty by the friendly, attentive and most importantly... knowledgeable staff. The food is outstanding. we opted for a tasting feast which had been specially prepared for Diwali. Every dish was beautifully presented and prepared. the use of spices was spectacular. some of the dishes (lobster and scallops) required subtle sauces and did not disappoint. This restaurant avoided the temptation to make everything "hot", opting for wonderful and varied taste instead. the wine list is expansive, and there are some very pricey options. that said there is a varied enough list to cater for almost any preference and budget. highly recommended

Best take away ever ordered for group of 15 everyone enjoyed the food . Will defenitly order again

I was in the area and got a lovely meal meal there with an excellent service. Definitely I would eat there again and I can highly recommend the place.

Closed for refurb ,never opened again what a shame great food .tried leaving messages no reply . Tried to find their other outlets (Croydon , Camberley, Beckenham .)

My family and I have been dining at Memories of India for the last 26 years. It is our favourite restaurant. The food, service and ambience are consistently excellent. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly and always ensure that we enjoy our evening. We find that when we eat at other establishments, we always compare the food and atmosphere to Memories of India and no other restaurants are as good. Memories of India has a huge variety of dishes and the staff always help to suggest new dishes to try and adapt dishes to suit your taste. We dine here almost weekly and always really look forward to our visits.

Excellent food & lots of it, first class service, best curry house around

Once a great place, now mediocre. Been eating here for decades, but the quality of the food has really gone down, the place is dirty, and in need of refurbishment. Today, ordered a chicken Jalfrezi, the taste was Ok, but it had no chillies, and hardly any chicken, the dish was full of gravey. Also ordered the Chicken Tikka Biryani, the taste was lacking, no biryani fragrance or taste, and tikka used had no flavour. The Garlic Nan was nice. It’s about time they cleaned the place, refurb the furnishings, and go back to improving the dishes.

Gone right down hill. Won't be going back. Terrible hygiene and horrible customer service 😒

I’ve been a customer for a long time because they have good chicken kebabs at a fair price. I usually eat in and take some food to go before I leave. But when I get takeaways, the portion is always about half of what I get when I eat in, which feels shady since it’s happened three times. They’re definitely doing it on purpose. Also, the music is always so loud that you have to shout to talk to anyone, which kind of ruins the atmosphere.

worth the slight wait excellent tasty food.

I’ve been eating here every Thursday for the last 10 weeks, every meal has been exceptional different meals each time This week was lamb Handi special 10 out of 10 again Friendly staff warned me when food was going to be hot ( I didn’t listen) food was still very tasty

I love this place! My wife and I consider ourselves foodies and we don’t just eat anything because it’s food. We’ve gotta like it to love it! We LOVE this place!! Don’t be caught off guard. I know you’ll probably have the same feelings when you approach the restaurant and see that it’s next to a gas station. This place is a hidden gem and we drive all the way from Clearwater just to eat their food. Give them some grace and an open mind. When we started coming years ago they had a restaurant and still do but they’re doing renovations to it so they have to keep the business going by cooking out of a food truck! The food is just as great! Seriously! I’ve been coming here for years! If anyone is looking for amazing Indian food this is the place- no exceptions! You will love it and I can’t wait to see the updated restaurant! Don’t write a negative review because they can’t open their restaurant right now, it’s out of their hands. They’re doing the best with what they have so let them continue by pushing out legendary cuisine!

Food was cold when it arrived so had to put in the oven to heat up (put this down to us living 4miles away) but the food was delicious when we ate it

Amazing food always our number 1 choice.
