Nawab — Restaurant in England

Honesty look my reviews, I review a lot of indian restaurants. This one was incredibly disappointing, and for the good reviews on here, you need to try elsewhere if you think this is good. To start, the Poppadoms were overcooked. They asked at the start if we wanted Poppadoms, didn't mention the cutneys but you always get them with Poppadoms then was charged for them even though we didn't ask for them and everywhere else they come free as standard with Poppadoms. The curry - bland as hell, no flavour whatsoever, we had chicken tikka masala and lamb masala, very bland. Honestly I've had better tikka masalas at Weatherspoons! The rice was stoggy, like its been on a hot plate all day Keema naan, what Keema, the spoon full that was there! Chips - did they see the fryer or just have a 2 min microwave?

Wouldn't go back. Don't recommend. Look at my other reviews for amazing Indian food! I would leave zero...

Take out food which was so bland. I spoke to the person on the phone how a Korma should be, to have replied, "it is a mild curry, there is no spices".

Bottom line, a huge disappointment and completely bland. If you want 'traditional' Indian food, i would...

The service was good. The servers were very friendly and helped us choose our dishes. In terms of taste , if you are Desi like me, it's not Desi... It's English Indian food BUT that does not mean it's not bad. I had the lamb karahi and it was more of a "lamb curry" , but it was nice, I didn't expect a real karahi to be honest. In this area, this is a good indian food place to try. 👍😄 Expect to pay 20£+ per person easily for starters ,main, drink. One of my friends got the biryani, it was burnt tasting and not biryani at all..

All in all , relative to the area and what it offers. This is a good...
