The staff and food were pretty good, but we weren't very happy with the butter chicken. I've tried several different recipes in my day, and cooked far more than I've eaten out, and I can say that hands-down this was NOT butter chicken. Butter chicken is supposed to have a cream, butter, and tomato base that's loaded with spices, onions, and garlic, while this dish WAS loaded with butter it didn't have any of the other components, or even the right spices, and the sauce was made with a very grainy coconut flour. It was really very odd. I ordered the lamb vindaloo, it was pretty much the most excellent version I've ever had of this dish. I asked them to make it spicy for me, and they warned me that it would be very spicy, and I was pleasantly surprised at how slowly the spiciness built up and then maintained at the same level, it was really nice. American spicy pretty much either kicks you in the teeth or builds to the point that the level is intolerably high for most, but Indian heat builds and then plateaus, which makes the experience more pleasant and less like a food challenge. Our starters were good, we had the poppadoms, samosas, and onion bajis. I'm not a fan of the mint sauce, but the onion salad and mixed pickle were great. Overall, I'd say that this place is good and I'd both dine here again and recommend it to my friends. read more

The entrance is a little tatty but not too bad, and the staff asked us to wait while they dealt with the endless takeaway calls/queue. We were shown to our table by the waiter. The decor was modern and clean, more swish cafe than backwater Indian. The staff were OK. I think that there was only two onincluding the chef. I think that reflects the rural location, and only added about 10-20 mins on our visit, which was fine with me. The food was good, I had (sorry cannot remember the name) a korma type dish with bananas. I have had a similar dish before and the bananas were part of the dish, so was a little disappointed when the dish arrived and there was just cold chopped banana on top of the dish. My friends ordered a hot hot dish, and both of them said it was good, although I think when they say hot on the menu they mean it!! There was a lot of steam coming out their ears! Reasonably priced, good food, and a good location. Worth a visit if in the area, but I guess not worth a detour! read more

Bengal Spices - Seating area - Indian Near Me

Great food, if you don't starve to death before it arrives. This place won Welsh Curry House of the year 2011 and 2012 and has also since had a refurb. If you can put up with the wait the food is excellent British style curry. read more
