😠 This isn’t a very authentic restaurant at all. They use frozen samosas. They couldn’t even cook these as they were still cold in the middle and they were dripping in oil. They use garlic butter on their naans rather than real garlic. The naan was more like a flat garlic bread. There is lots of ra... People often mention staff, service, excellent,

    This isn’t a very authentic restaurant at all. They use frozen samosas. They couldn’t even cook these as they were still cold in the middle and they were dripping in oil. They use garlic butter on their naans rather than real garlic. The naan was more like a flat garlic bread. There is lots of raw tomato in the curry to fill it out. The rice was probably the best thing about the meal. I was missing items and they couldn’t care less because apparently the “website was wrong”. That’s not my problem. I was also overcharged for my naans, which I asked to be changed to a different version and paid the difference . This was supposed to be £1.35 extra using the prices on the website but they charged £3. Driver was funny when I queried this and when I called I wasn’t given a proper answer. Maybe the website that they update was wrong with this too. You’d be better off going to a supermarket. It’s cheaper, much better and more authentic than this place.

    Such a lovely place to eat, celebrated my 22nd birthday with my twin sister and most of my family. Food was delicious and the staff were very welcoming and polite. You are allowed your own drinks (alcohol) and we gave them some birthday cake to those who served us, was such a lovely place to go, for any one family, friends or partners or all three :) Recommended highly!

    Why here? Well we were looking for somewhere to go following a trip to Heartlands Hospital to visit my brother. If he had the chance he would have liked to have come with us. Anyway, we found ourselves here after asking Google for "Indian restaurants near me", then looking at their reviews, but more importantly the photos. Would I like to eat that I ask myself? Obviously it was a yes, and we were not disappointed let on our Friday night visit. It was quite early and few were there although the take away trade seemed to be very busy. It's a smart looking dining room, split into two halves, one side with booths, the other side is more open plan, and all was clean and tidy. The evening was hard to fault. Hopefully my photos speak for themselves regarding the food and the service was excellent, timely and attentive. The only thing that could have been better were the chips but I say that in probably 9 out of 10 of my reviews. I thought it was reasonably priced for what we had, made even more competitive as you can take your own alcohol. Plenty of parking on the doorstep.

    Had lovely family meal only thing we didn’t like is that the windows are fully open and no blinds so people could see as they pass by on bus or walk by just some beaded curtains would help

    This is our local and we go most weeks...the quality of the food is top notch and it's terrific value. It's not in the best location for foot fall which is a real shame as I'd argue they're the best curry house around.

    We have been here a few times now and have to say the food is very, very average and portions are small. I’ve never had a curry with so many onions versus sauce etc. Staff are very friendly but that’s about the only positive thing.

  • 5/5 Kevin G. 1 year ago on Google
    Popped in late in the evening. Ordered a keema balti and couple of keema naans as a takeaway. Wait wasn't long and had a friendly chat with a staff member. Food was still hot when I got home and very tasty. Price was good too. First time I've tried Little Bengal and I will go back. Very pleased with everything. I highly recommend this restaurant. Thank you.

    Ordered from here online, I stated the time for my curry to arrive at 645pm. The driver arrived at 6pm, unfortunately I was not at my home and I could not pay him so I phoned them and they said they would deliver at 645pm. They didn't turn up at 645pm and he made excuses that I live too far away. If I live too far away why except the order? I have had currys from here before and there has never been a problem, doubt if I will use them again.

    We had an excellent dinner. Food was amazing and price is very reasonable. And the service was spot on. Would love to visit again and would recommend anyone to try it out.

    Have ordered four or five takeaways in the last few weeks and must say the food has been delicious. My partner said the lamb madras (especially the sauce) is the best he's ever had. I particularly enjoy the prawn bhuna but look forward to trying other dishes. I also think the nan breads are excellent, soft but thick and full of flavour.

    It was early evening with no one else in, so it's hard to offer a fair rating on atmosphere, but the service was great, the food could have been a little hotter but it was tasty.

  • 4/5 Shifaa Al M. 2 years ago on Google
    Ordered from here last night for the 1st and andcthey kindly accepted order even though they were close to closing! Must say was very pleasantly surprised at how tasty the food was, I asked for extra spicy as I was poorly and it definitely hit the spot! They also kindly gave free poppadoms which was a nice touch. Will definitely order from here again.

    Attended with my daughters today and was very impressed.Excellent service, top quality food and without doubt one of if not the best Indian meals I've ever had. Thanks

    Food is decent but the wait for delivery is a joke. Phoned up after 1h 10m to be told it had just left. 28m later it arrived

  • 2/5 Winston M. 1 year ago on Google
    Curry was really sweet... Ordered two totally different curries all tasted the same in the same sauce. Disappointing. At least it wasnt too expensive.
