Shahbaaz Curry Cottage has been a favourite of mine for a good few years now - being a minute away…read morefrom my parents house, it also doubles up as our local Indian takeaway. The restaurant is, as the name suggests, in a small cottage that has quite recently been extended to cater for the demand for a good curry house in the area. There must be no more than 15 tables in the entire place, which makes it nice and cosy - which I like. I have been here countless times, and each time I cannot fault the service. The waiters are friendly, and the same guys have worked there for years, so if you're local and go there frequently they remember your name - which is always nice. The food is authentic Indian food, with a varied choice of curries on the menu. One of their starters - Prawn on Puree - is my favourite and I often order this as larger portion for my main meal, which they are always more than happy to do for me. The prices are very reasonable here, and if you like them on Facebook they'll often post print-off vouchers on their page for customer discounts and freebies. They also run deals on certain nights, where you can get 3 courses and a beer for £15. Last week when I visited, the service was abnormally slow.. And something I haven't experienced before. Granted it was a busy Friday night but maybe they were a waiter down or something. The service is usually faultless - this must have been an off night but I wouldn't like to mark them down for it. I'll continue to go here, either with family or with friends - and if you're in the area it's definitely the best place for Indian food for a good few miles.

OH HOW I WAS WRONG , Ruposhi is a small single floored based Indian with a funky small bar / takeaway waiting area! In what is a converted old pub this airy Indian with brightly lit neon ceiling just fits into your Indian culinary jigsaw! Catering with a team of chefs drafted in from already gold existing Indians in the local Area to make a superstar team. These guys knock up some of the tastiest curries I've had in a long time. For the price don't be expecting the quality of Zouk or the atmosphere of Akbars! But nevertheless this Indian performs in top gear! Quick service that's professional with a smile! Only small issue with it is the temperature inside can be a little on the cold side depending on where you sit. Also they cater very well for Gluten free diets !

I've been here twice now with different sets of friends. All have been blown away, not only with…read morethe very high quality of the meal, but with everything else that makes it a night to remember. The decor is not your usual Indian but lovely lighting, comfortable seating etc. The staff are attentive and friendly. Your coats are removed and placed in a 'table number specific' staff area. The menu is different not only for the choice but also for the price. All prices are in whole numbers - no pence figures allowed ! The food is extremely good. This is definitely a high class Indian restaurant and as such is a little more expensive than the usual run of the mill. I would advise to book early because it gets very busy later in the evening. The only downside is the limited parking for that area but the place is well worth any extra walking from car to doorstep. Ian G. Bolton.

Brilliant food exactly how I wanted it. The food is a little pricier than the more popular curry…read morehouse up the road but the service is second to none. I find the smaller things such has hot plates being placed on the table moments before the food is brought are key things which make you stand out from the rest. Each dish was hot and portions were adequate to fill the average person. Alcohol was a bit pricy for the location but is expected. The reason it is not 5 stars was because the waiter or waiters in this case came three times in consecutive occasions to ask if we are ready to order. The first waiter got told cane we have 5 minutes and a minute later a different waiter asked if we was ready, again. As I mentioned before, the food is brilliant. Would recommend for an nice meal or even a group outing.

We were AMAZED by this place!…read more It was probably made even better by the most recent one we had being poor too, and also, thumbs up for 5* hygiene rating (yes, I'm one of those people who checks). Eleven of us ordered food, including enormous tubs of rice, giant and entirely amazing onion bhajis (definitely get some of these- big scotch egg sized tasty globes). Everyone had something different, and there was a bit of sharing too, everyone was happy. The hotter ones have a reasonable kick, and a surprisingly good one was the shampan- picked out of morbid curiosity, with mozzarella cheese on top, and not swimming with fat. We were all very full, and the Naans still tasted nice the next morning!

Booked a table for 5 people on a Thursday evening, I was surprised how busy it actually was. We sat in the waiting area whilst everyone turned up and then were shown to out pre-prepared table and served drinks. Staff were polite and were soon taking our order. I went for poppadum, a chicken tikka starter and chicken tikka biryani for main, followed by a coffee. The food was delicious, probably the best tasting food of any Indian restaurant I've been to and everyone was of the same opinion. 5 different people, 5 different dishes, 5 different opinions, 5 overall very happy customers. After the meal we were served with hot wipes and then provided with the bill. The only negative I can possibly think of is that unlike some other Indian restaurants, we weren't offered a complementary 'shot' at the end, but that's being very picky.

If you're looking for a decent curry in the Bury area then look no further - Jewel in the Crown is…read morewhere you need to go. Delicious food, excellent service, and great value for money - suitable for large groups or casual/intimate dining. You are usually greeted with numerous smiling faces as you walk into the bar / waiting area which instantly makes you feel welcome - something that is often missing in restaurants these days. Unfortunately, if you do have to wait for a table (quite likely) the seating area is tiny, so I would suggest booking in advance, especially on the weekends as it's usually jam packed! Located in the town centre, the restaurant is just a 5 minute walk from Bury Interchange, or a 2 minute taxi if it's raining (again, quite likely!), so now you know where it is get booking a table!

I once ate with four people for only £15 all together! The staff is friendly and their service is fast. So, if you like Indian food, I'd highly recommend this place!

The food was good, but the restaurant was incredibly dark inside. The dishes were presented on…read moremetal trays, which I found unappealing. It felt like a cafeteria tray in a mental institution. The restaurant was so dark that I had to use my phone's flashlight to read the menu. Some of the dishes I had ordered were listed under different names on the menu. This could be because the restaurant is from a region of India where the dish is called something else. For example, Dahl makhani was not listed on the menu, but the lentil dish was, and it tasted the same to me. The menu itself was difficult to read due to the low lighting and the confusing layout. It was like a maze, with columns and rows that didn't make sense. I had to carefully navigate through the menu to find what I was looking for. It was a frustrating experience, and I wish the restaurant had a better-designed menu.
