    We went for the lunch special. Only quibble is that it says any starter outside but they then said it does not include chicken tikka or lamb tikka. Change your advertisement! This is the best Indian we've had in Benidorm so far. Everything was lovely, I really liked the sauce with the pakora not like the pakora sauce we get at home, it was less spicy & more aromatic. Very tasty. We ordered the Rogan Josh, the lamb was tender & the chicken pasanda. The pints didn't have a decent head on them & were 3.50€ each which is what you'd expect to pay in a restaurant but it would be better if they had more life in them. We'd definitely come back here but would probably change our drink choice.

    We came here for a week stay in Benidorm and just thought we'd try this place out. Now we're eating here for the 3rd time later today cos it's probably the best Indian we've had in our lives. Couldn't give any better a review for this place. Would highly recommend the butter chicken and jalfrezi, madras etc it is all amazing.

    absolutely lovely meal, staying around the corner for a week. Saw the great reviews and gave it a try… not disappointed at all. Popadoms and pickles great, my lamb madras was close to vindaloo strength but still lovely, girlfriend loved it and had the biggest pieces of chicken tikka I’ve ever seen. Well recommended xx

    Best meal we had whilst in benidorm. Everything was cooked to perfection. The staff were lovely. Curries are spiced to perfection. We ate so much we struggled to walk back to our hotel. Well done guys. Definitely recommend 👌 and kid friendly with nice outdoor space to sit.

    Excellent quality food, brilliant service and very good prices. Having lived in Benidorm for 22 years, I've tried quite a few Indian restaurants, looking for the best curry fix. And after trying this place I can honestly say that it was one of the best meals I have had in a long time. I will definitely be visiting again very soon. And it's very possible that this will become my new regular curry house.

    Absolutely delicious Indian. Our new favourite Indian In Benidorm. The food is so tasty and the staff are lovely. They gave us a free shot after we finished our meal. They have so much choice on the menu and the atmosphere is lovely. Very relaxing meal.

    We went today and had the best Indian Food we have ever had. I have eaten all over the world and I am what I would call a food critic and rarely I'm happy. However The food in this place was out of this world. Huge portions , piping hot , full of flavour and fresh. 5 star all the way from me..Also The hygiene of the restaurant was spot on as was the service.

    Absolutely brilliant restaurant - excellent food, service and atmosphere. So calm. They were very patient with my mum, on her first ever trip to a curry house, and my vegan dishes were some of the best I've had. Totally recommend this gem of a restaurant.

    When i asked locals about the best place to get a curry, 2 out of 3 said The Curry Leaf. I ordered a lamb madras and Chicken tikka masala. I felt I had to leave a review as the food was superb and the service from the staff excellent.

    Restaurant was very busy on Valentine’s Day but the staff accommodated 6 people without a reservation so I am very grateful. Service and food was of high quality. We wanted a fine dining experience and that’s what we got. We loved the starters and the Chicken Chilli my favourite. My children loved the chicken bhuna.

    This place was recommended by a friend I trust, and he called it bang on. Four people in our group, four completely different dishes, all four tasted and looked completely different, and the quality and flavours were absolutely on point. The staff were courteous and friendly, and the food was piping hot and came out in a timely manner. This will be on top of our list on our next visit.

    So we had to go to Spain to get the best indian food we ever had. Everything was great, spicy and hot how it should be, but still very tasty. We will go there again!

    Read a number of reviews so my wife and I decided to check it out. Nice environment with attentive service by a young man called Navi. Food arrived at very acceptable intervals. Plates were nicely warmed prior to the arrival of the food. Food was delicious. All in all faultless. Keep up the standards Navi and good luck for the future.

    Outstanding. Family of 5 visited at the end of October. It was very quite and I have no idea why. Food was beautiful, everything. Starters, rice, naan and currys were out of this world. Please visit. Staff are kind, friendly and very attentive.

    Honnestly we go to a lot of places and always love a good Indian restaurant when on holiday. This is one of the best we have been too. The spices and flavour of all the food was incredible. The waiter was also very kind and chatty 1

    I had a very tasty lamb jalfrezi with pillau rice. I couldn’t get enough of the curry: succulent spiced lamb in a rich sauce. I loved the peshwari nan after deliberating with the plain one, got that just right. Good service from a pleasant waiter who was likeable and efficient. After trudging through the pouring rain (the other nine days were gorgeous) we were mighty pleased to chance upon the Curry Leaf, thanks boys!

  • 5/5 Emz 7 months ago on Google • 11 reviews
    Food was really tasty! We ordered butter chicken and passanda curries. Passanda was slightly sweeter than I'd prefer but other than that couldn't fault the food. All the sides were delicious - fried rice, chips and garlic naan. Would definitely come back! Better than some of the curries I've had in Northern Scotland. It was a bit hot so would have liked the air con on!

    came across this restaurant by accident and I was not disappointed. Greeted warmly, great service, Arman and his team do a wonderful job. The food was well presented and tasted superb. Would I recommend Curry Leaf? absolutely, and I would certainly visit again.

  • 4/5 JRR J. 1 year ago on Google
    This would of been a 5☆ but sadly the service was lacking , only 1 waiter with a little help from the guy in the kitchen ! When entering I stood to be seated to realise the only waiter was taking an order so I chose a table and sat down , when the waiter eventually brought the menu he was somewhat put out that I was a lone diner and huffed and puffed as he removed the other settings (there was no smaller tables in the restaurant) I ordered entrees and a beer which came very quick as did my main meal !! I finished my drink before my main meal arrived but at no point was offered another drink or any follow ups to check if meal was ok ! After my main it took me over 10 min to get the waiters attention for the bill ! I was going to have dessert and coffee but went else where for it ! The food was the best food ive had in Benidorm but sadly the service lets the restaurant down !! ☆☆ MAYBE people should book so that they know how many to expect each night so they can manage their staffing?? ☆☆ When I entered there were only 4 other tables of diners ! Excellent food and very reasonable pricing !

    Excellent food, friendly, attentive service, multilingual staff and a great atmosphere; all for a great price too. Best restaurant I’ve been to in Benidorm by a distance, cannot rate it highly enough and will definitely return.
