Ma'ida Table Spread — Restaurant in Newcastle upon Tyne

If you're in the mood for Indian food and don't mind sacrificing a bit of flavor for great service and a pleasant atmosphere, then this restaurant is definitely worth checking out. While the food isn't exactly mind-blowing, it's perfectly serviceable and hits all the right notes, albeit somewhat lackluster.

The menu offers all the classic Indian dishes that you'd expect, but unfortunately, they don't quite live up to the high standards of authentic Indian cuisine. The flavors are somewhat muted and lack the complexity and depth that make Indian food so beloved. However, the portions are generous, and the presentation is nice, so it's certainly not a bad dining experience by any means.

Where this restaurant really shines is in its service and atmosphere. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and attentive, ensuring that all guests feel right at home.

The atmosphere of the restaurant is also lovely, with tasteful decor and just the right level of lighting and background music. The overall vibe is great, making it a great place to catch up with friends or enjoy a romantic meal.

In summary, while the Indian food at this restaurant may not be the most flavorful , the exceptional service and pleasant atmosphere make it a great choice for a casual night out. If you're in the mood for Indian food and looking for a cozy spot with attentive staff, this restaurant is definitely...

My son suggested this restaurant as we were out for his birthday so his choice. This is quite simply the best Indian restaurant that I've ever been to. The service was absolutely brilliant, the two lads working tonight were great and nothing was a bother they were so good with us. I had a chat with one about our watches and just complimenting each others watches as he was getting so ice for our table. I can't praise the two of them enough. My son and I shared a mixed kebab starter which was beautiful, we both enjoyed it. I had the lamb karie (I can't spell it) whilst my son and partner had the madras, we had keema pilou and two garlic and coriander Nanns. All of the meal was beautiful. My son and I finished the meal with Him having the chocolate cake with ice cream whilst I went for the sticky toffee pudding with ice cream, compliments to the chef for the whole meal and I couldn't fualt a single thing. The whole experience from start to finish was outstanding and I will definitely be back again. Big thank you to the two lads who served us tonight, I really can't praise yous enough. Well done and thank you for a...

We ordered from this place the other day because of the 4.5 star reviews it has. Anway we are originally from London and lived in an area that was also known as little India, which was overflowing with restaurants that had very good Indian food, so yes maybe we were a little spoilt for choice. But all I can is that if you Geordies think this place is worth 3, 4 or 5 stars, then you have NEVER had a decent Indian meal! The food was awful, tasteless, oily and not spicy at all. Whilst we are not particularly fussed about it being spicy, at the very least it has to taste of something and I didn't think it was ever possible to have a chicken tikka, a lamb curry and a biriyani that all tasted the same, which was of nothing!! And seriously what was with all the oil on the lamb and vegetable curry?! Apparently it has also received 5-stars from the Evening Chronicle, that's HILARIOUS, there must have been some serious greasing of palms going on there, but then this restaurant does have an abundance of greasy oil, but no spices or flavour! Anyway I guess we can cross this one...
