Flavours Indian Cuisine — Restaurant in Douglas

I’ve literally just left Flavours Indian Cuisine. I arrived on my own & was not booked in, however the young lady, very kindly sorted me out a table, explaining that if another table became available, she would move me to a more quieter table upstairs.

Sure enough she did. Unbeknown to her or the other staff, I was feeling a bit ‘low’ having come over to the Isle to attend a dear friend’s funeral.

The service & the food was absolutely first class. The main curry I ordered certainly was full of flavours indeed, the best that I have tasted in a very long time.

I highly recommend Flavours to anyone, be you a local resident or visitor. The hospitality & food was superb....

Simply superbly cooked dishes with authentic, varied and delicate flavours. Not a single dish was average (we shared all dishes - would recommend this approach to sample the variety). From the bhargi to the breads to subtle side sauces - all grade 1. The chef sent out food which expressed such a knowledge of ingredients, combinations and a real love of cooking. Good friendly service too. FLAVOURS is a little gem and IOM is very lucky to have it. For me, for Indian food taste and quality, beats anything currently in Oxford, London,...
