Bilash Indian Restaurant — Restaurant in North Tyneside

We were so excited for this takeaway after reading such great reviews and watching thier posts on Instagram the food looking unreal! The excitement didn't last long at all sadly. We ordered a king prawn bhaji on puree, Butter chicken and a Jalfrezi chicken tikka with chips, rice and nan. Order arrived when it said it would (approx 1hour) which was the only good thing.

Chips were stone cold, the starter I don't think I've ever had such mushy prawn (clearly old) in my life and the puree was in with the sauce so was an absolute soggy mess. The butter chicken was clearly a chicken korma with butter swimming on top and the tikka meat was clearly days old as the dye was all the way through the chicken and hellishly salty. I would never have gave a bad review , I just wouldn't have ordered again but my husband had been none stop vomiting since early hours!

I don't know if you've had a bad night or took on to many orders but was was delivered last night was absolute garbage and should never have been served for human consumption. I had such high expectations and this was just such a disappointment.

I hope you read the review and look into the quailty of the food being delivered especially the tikka from last night as I hope other s didn't get food poisoning too as that could be damaging...

On arriving at the bilash Indian restaurant in Cullercoats I was greeted by the friendly staff. It is 2 minutes walk from Cullercoats metro station. A local bus service runs close by or you can drive and park close by or walk like I did. The food was well worth the price, I went on the special night. Although it was £2 more than it advertised on - line. Good food good value for money, clean and tidy restaurant and toilets. Unfortunately no room for wheelchair access and no accessible toilets but when I queried this the staff said they were try and help to get them in. I found the staff went out the way to help me decide what I wanted from the menu. I asked what was in couple of dishes and they were more than happy to advise me. I didn't book on the night I went but went early enough to get a seat but it filled up quick, maybs because it was special night. Bilash do deliver as well, they do have seating area upstairs for larger bookings. I have been before and will definitely be back. I have already recommended to my friends...

The food was ok. Had variety of grilled meats, curries and dal / sag aloo. Very very under seasoned and not very flavoursome (every dish needed more seasoning and spices added to it). But not oily or terrible if that makes sense. Could be good if it just seasoned properly!

Dal always my favourite dish (and pretty difficult to get wrong) but again seriously seriously under seasoned - and no chopped coriander/ cooked garlic / chilli etc on it…

Naan came nearly cold (and was supposed to be garlic but honestly minimal garlic / seasoning on it) as transported in paper bags rather than normal insulated ones. And poppadoms a bit flaccid.

Could be a great takeaway if better flavours. I’ll notch the poor naan and poppadoms down to it being NYE. But for everything else - start flavouring your...
