"this restaurant deserves any good review that it has got! eating is amazing and the ambiente is just as good. in the rule Indian/pakistani restaurants with claws decoration and interiors, just because there are few restaurants. but this restaurant is very different. the restaurant is very beautiful from the inside and especially looks perfectly clean. we have not made the buffet option and have just decided to order from the menu. we ordered the chicken tikka masala, garnelen biryani and malai tikka boti. we loved eating, especially the huh tikka masala! that was the highlight of our meal, couple with the warm butternan. it was delicious! the biryani was a bit spicy, but still very tasty. I would recommend this place to everyone! go and see yourself!"

"We popped in here for lunch on a Wednesday and there was lots of empty tables. The staff were quite pleasant, though not many behind the bar at that time, but was not busy. My first choice of soft drink could not be found so I opted for ginger ale. Food was really lovely and arrived quickly. I ordered side dishes and they were an ok size and one came with on a lovely, fresh bed of lettuce. The atmosphere was fairly ambient and not noisy at all. Would definately go there again. I liked the lips that were on the walls"

"Ordered from here at on a Saturday thinking I would get it in before it gets busy. It didn’t get delivered until When I rang to ask where it was, they were rude. When it eventually arrived the curry and rice was cold....I again rang and complained to which I had a very abrupt answer that they would send another one out which I declined and demanded a refund. They then sent a delivery driver back to pick up the cold food!! Appalling service and from what I tasted of the curry I didn’t miss much"

"Bella Italia was included as part of a party package in Brighton for a group of 9 on a hen do! Our table wasn 't ready upon arrival and we had no idea how they were going to squeeze 9 of us into such a small restaurant. We all felt very self conscious and like we were intruding upon the other customers personal time, as it was such an intimate restaurant. Once our table was ready, we were seated at the rear of the restaurant and one of our friends was at the end of the table, which was in the way of the waiters 'service ' area (drinks, till etc . The food choices on the 'party ' menu were very limited (choice of 2 starters and 4 mains and the restaurant weren 't aware that one of our party required gluten free options. However, a gluten free menu was promptly supplied and the waiter was very efficient helpful throughout our visit. I don 't think the food was that good, is very basic (even looking a other customers choices! and quite bland. I have been to far superior Italian restaurants this is maybe somewhere I would go for a light lunch and not an evening meal. That said, on this occasion the food was adequate for our needs; we weren 't there for a special meal."

"We ordered 6 different dishes chosen by this establishment, and I'm sorry to say that utterly appalling was our conclusion. All three of us agreed that it was all practically inedible and disgusting. I was attracted initially by the fact that Nepali dishes were served here including mojo. The momo were inedible along with almost everything else we ordered including the nan bread which was so dried out, it was like cardboard. Obviously not made on site. We are amazed this place has been in business for any length of time. The on Y acceptable food we received out of nearly £40 of different dishes was the pilau rice. Very sad to report this, we has higher expectations. Avoid this place if you like good quality food."

"Sadly another Takeaway that had a great reputation and customer service but since new owns have taken over no so much service isn't good and owner doesnt understand that that he should remove items from his menu no raise the price of items and deals but then refuse to sell them i would rather pay to have new menus printed with the correct items and deal that i am willing to sell at those prices and not have to pay a fine for false advertising. But sadly it's only the latest of a sting of local takeaways in this area that have change owners and the new owns who bought the business because it was doing so well wont have the same level of custom as they dont seem to understand the things the previous owners did that got them those customer levels. Some rule for achieve this is. If it is not broke dont try to fix it. But to many these people think they know better."

"The restaurant offers a wide selection of dishes, covering all the expected options. The staff are very friendly and the prices are reasonable for a city center location, although they have increased recently. The restaurant recently relocated to a larger space with more seating. I would typically give it 4 stars, but my last meal was overly salty and had too much oil, which was disappointing as they are usually good. I will still give it another try and hopefully it was just a one-time issue."

"We had an OK time. We paid for our meal as part of our Lords ticket so had a set one course choice. We had the curry which was not bad, not amazingly flavoursome but acceptable. There were plenty of staff to customers but service very casual and not over friendly. Plenty of screens to watch the cricket and am sure when key matches are on there is probably a great atmosphere, but at other times not a particular destination."

"kismet tandoori, which I should explain to the inappropriate, is an adventurer, no restaurant, is my go-to Indian takeaway in cambridge for many, many years (at least and in all the time I can only remember that disappointed meals. One...was where I had asked for extra seasoning in a biryani, and it had not been added (a disorder in the communication between the receiving cook), and once when a dhansak was under par (usual cook on holiday all the other paints my extra spicy biriyanis and my dhansaks (my two favorites) were absolutely delicious. I have lived in a couple of different parts of cambridge, but apart from a short time after the disappointing dhansak when I visited another facility that subsequently closed, I always go out of mine to give kismet my use. I can't comment on re-delivery as I always collect personally. I like that they better recycle their food in foil containers the portion size is generous and eating is always a good temperature."

"Although the food was nice, the experience was not! The manager was rude and did not make us feel welcome. Rushed us to order saying we had limited time at the table as it was booked for another group in 90 minutes. Then the food took forever to arrive. Waiting for the bill and for a waiter to come and take our payment felt like an eternity! We left 45 minutes after the time the manager said the next booking was due to arrive, they never came because there was no other booking! One waiter opened the door for us when we left and said thank you. That was the most polite any of the staff had been all evening. Very disappointing and no wonder the staff are miserable with a manager like that! We were looking for a place for the 8 of us to meet up regularly, it won't be at Vakas! Will never go there for a meal again!"

"Not impressed. Popadoms were stale, starters were fine but chicken pakoras just a fried fritter with hardly any chicken there was even a chip on the plate from the fat frier, obviously the chef doesn’t care too much! My lamb shank was terrible and barely edible, it looked black and grey in parts. Won’t be coming here again."

"we visited pepper during a short holiday break between christmas and new year. it was a quiet night to be a Wednesday, although there were a few larger groups celebrated birthdays and, although we had booked online, there were many tables to choose from. the menu contained some dishes that we had not met before. we had small but beautifully cooked and presented seafood stars. for the main course my partner chose the tandoori lammings that were plentiful and excellent. I had a royal dish that was just as delicious. there was a light mix with our order that was taken on a digital device, which led to us getting a few dishes that we had not requested! However, this was quickly sorted out, with excuses and a free supplement. a very nice meal in a beautiful restaurant."

"we went for the first time on Friday. I'm shocked it won't heaving! the food was delicious, the staff was so friendly and did not linger or hasten you. there was so much choice on the menu and loved that they could see in the kitchen that proved they had nothing to hide! the ice cream is amazing when they can choose a taste, the naan looks amazing and they were so helpful with diet requirements. if they enjoy beer and do not drive, they try the king cobras, but warn them are quite strong! we took two parent groups, both of whom said it was the best indian they were, the facility that was the personal everything brilliant. 100% recommended!"

"In my visits to Drumchapel I've always enjoyed the fare on offer at Pauls. When calling for collection I've always been struck by the spotless shop and serving areas. Deliveries are always prompt, service is always cheery and friendly. No stranger to a chippy supper over the years, Pauls is right up there with the best I've had. Portions are hearty and the batter is a delightful crispy experience, especially on the fish. Great variety, always tasty and the sausage supper would fill you for a fortnight. Great for a wee home delivery treat."

"The craftsmanship exceeded my expectations and the dining experience was enjoyable. I opted for the e-menu and ordered the Tandoori chicken with sweet curry and basmati rice. The restaurant also offers a buffet with a variety of their popular dishes. The ambiance and food were fantastic - definitely a must-try!"

"I am a long standing customer of The Spice Merchant and unfortunately the consistency just isn’t there. It’s never bad, sometimes great, but mostly good. Recently prices seemed to have increased across the board, but also portion size has been reduced, so it no longer feels like value for money. The naan is almost half the size, but is almost twice as expensive. The meat in most dishes seems to have halve too, but are now about £3 more expensive. Popadoms used to be included, but are no £1 each?"

"I had a lovely evening at the Plough and Harrow last night, the food was great and the service was exceptional! My waitress was Bonnie and she was absolutely fab, super attentive and friendly definitely deserves some extra recognition for going the extra mile to make our meal perfect. Thanks for a brilliant evening!"

"The restaurant didn't have my reservation even though I made it through open table so there was waiting around. The waiters were not attentive. The service was very slow and the food wasn't that great. I found the waiters quite standoffish because we were Asian and could understand their language but they tried to make it like they couldn't understand. I went with my parents who are in their 60's as they wanted to try out something different from home cooking. I would not go there again."
