The best restaurants serving Indian food in Northern Ireland

I agree with Frankm’s view. The couple who run it do work hard and are always courteous but to be honest the flavours don’t wow. We usually go for chicken tikka nan kebabs, but really only if we are stuck. The fact is I can buy M&S chicken biryani, their finest chicken tikka masala, lettuce, tomatoes, onions and non breads and rustle up bloody good chicken tikka nans at home. There’s three bonuses doing it this way - one, and most important, the food actually tastes better, two and almost as important, we know what’s in it and there’s no crap or artificial colours etc and third it’s cheaper. The one thing I can’t reconcile with all our Bangladeshi restaurants in the city is that they’ve pitched their main meals at top dollar prices but this is not reflected in the quality, portion size or the taste of the food. The fact is I had enough of crap Bangladeshi food some time back and the nickel and dimeing by Spice of India. The chap in there can nickel and dime like the best of them. The Water Street place put me off for life in this city. Our response - if we want a good ‘Indian’ meal we go to Indian Ocean Glengormley (they’ve also places in Hollywood & Carrickfergus) or Bengal Brasserie Lisburn Road Belfast as a second choice. Fact is while both places are a bit more expensive the quality in these places is so many, many times better. Our Bangladeshi restauranteurs would do well to buy a take away from Indian Ocean - Match the quality there. Match the price too and business will flow. Quality will always out.

Food arrived piping hot and earlier than delivery time estimate. Very please with this at 1.30am on a Monday!

The Moghul is a favourite, absolutely fantastic food. My favourite is Dopiaza, Bhuna and Balti. I cannot fault the food quality! The food is amazing and the price is excellent (good portions).

Decent food nothing special but good when on break on nightshift or when leaving millies better than Ali’s next door

Conseguí una entrega y fue abz asqueroso todo era como salsas sagaloo de curry de agua lo único bueno es el pan nan y patatas fritas! ! Llamé de vuelta al llamado trabajador DISGUSTANTE que era tan grosero e ignorante. . . . ! ¡Cómo te atreves a decirme que nadie podría volver por la orden de que no hagas eso! ! ! No déjeme decirle que soy un cliente que paga, usted vendrá a recibir mi pedido o yo vendré a comprar mañana, persona asquerosa. La comida era abz vile cómo le sirves eso a la gente está tan mal. . . .

Four of us went for dinner two adults and two children I asked for small for the two children and the bill came out full price plus £16 for for coke I get ruffle the same order every other week as a takeaway costing around £35/40 pounds restaurant charged me £93 I have been eating ere for years I won't be back...

Got this twice... even the pizza is spicy . Nobody could eat their meals. Terrible.. Couldn't eat it both times it was THAT spicy!!!

I was a regular for years, they said a guy hadn't payed last week, they pulled the same thing on me.

Delicious food. Waiter very attentive and helpful. The restaurant is a little gem and very well priced. Very happy with our evening and we will be back.

Haven't been in quite some time and I won't be back. This used to be a great wee takeaway when Shakeel managed it. The two lonely guys who served me seemed like fish out of water. No personality although the guy with glasses did say thank you. The kebab on chips was a let down to say the least. I'm glad I didn't go for something more substantial. 5 pieces of the worst overcooked pakora I've ever tasted and doner meat chopped up into tiny burnt ends. How difficult can it be?

food arrived cold and they had a cheek to say send it back give u a refund I wanted to food but warm won't be back...........

The worst experience, ordered two pizzas one vegetarian and one chicken, took them home and discovered the pizza base was raw, cost me £14.07

Terrible. Booked a table for 7.15 waited until nearly 9 with still no table available. Booked a week in advance. Left with no where to eat on a rare night off on a Saturday night. Couldn’t even get someone to pay for the none alcoholic beers we had. Will not be back.
