"we had a great time. the service was very nice with us. we tried two different curries and they were very tasty, not too oily, well presented and full of aromas. the cocktails are also very well made. we can recommend this place to everyone."

"We were a little disappointed in the menu offered. Having looked on line at the sample menu the actual menu offerings were more limited and not quite in the same standard. There was nothing wrong with the food service, it was perfectly acceptable but not quite what the on line sample menu suggested. Having visited the restaurant before, albeit a while ago, it seemed that things had been down graded both in terms of food and surroundings."

"a group of 6 of us went there on a Monday evening as there were good reviews. it is located in a next street, and the first impression was the datierte decoration. they have an extensive menu and many items are listed as vegan or can be made vegan. we had the opportunity to get in the ground floor near the beginning (which was above warm) or down (which was very cold, as there was no heating) so we chose the ground floor. the restaurant was pretty busy. they serve alcohol. on the menu is located cobra beer 1/2 pint, 1 pint and from the bottle. buy the bottle as there is much cheaper than the design beer. note that on the menu there are poppadums on two places mentioned. £1 for 1. or pay them £3,50 for two if they want something chutney with. they bring them the more expensive if they do not specify. I had punjabi samosas for the starter. they were in order, but I had better elsewhere. one of our groupings the bhel armi, but it did not happen until all others had finished their ancestors, but he said it tasted very beautiful. for the net I had the tofu massaman curry. in the round it consisted of large plates of tofu with some kartoffels in a green sauce. unfortunately my curry lukewarm was when it arrived, but it tasted ok. It was very mild and suitable for my palate. I had to order a part rice separately, and the part rice was bigger than I actually needed. my partner ordered the vegan thiali £17. we told the waiter that we were vegan when we ordered and the vegan thiali is mentioned specifically on the menu. when it arrived, it seemed to have milkrita as well as a non-vegan dessert. we asked the waiter if it was vegan and he said yes, then he reconstructed and took the dessert away to be replaced. he did not seem to be aware that the rita was not vegan. I checked with another employee who said that the rita they brought was not vegan and they would also replace it. another employee said they would replace the rita with a vegan version they did. it seemed just a waiter for most of the time to be, and he seemed to watch his time with headphones in and on his phone! overall eating was ok, the service was not so great. there are many Indian vegetarian restaurants in london and some with beautiful decoration and better eating."

"We were addicted to the pani puri from here. We would come weekly just for this. So disappointed you are no longer doing pani puri no more. Please bring it back to both your restaurants and also on Deliveroo. It really was the best thing ever :"

"Very good service, but I was a little dissapointed with the food and the ambiance. Poppadoms were the small disc type and they were thick and heavy. We had a selection of starters that were all nice, but the main curry courses lacked flavour and were too creamy. My months curry did not taste all that fresh either. The tables were set out like a school canteen. It's been a while since I was here and I recall that it was excellent, but we sat in an area that was closed on this occasion. The food was also better, so maybe they just had a bad day."

"Chakra what can I say. Food and dessert was excellent. Quality is really not the issue here. Good Indian Food at good inexpensive prices. On average £25 30 per head including a bottle of wine to share. What really disappointed us all was the 45 minute wait for the delivery of the food and no real apology forthcoming. My guests and I sat in the outdoor terrace only too see a wave of Deliveroo drivers waiting too for their food. Totally unacceptable that as guests sat down we had to wait 45 mins. When the food did arrive, my friend was by then not hungry anymore. Cannot blame her. No apology and only after the 4th time asking where our food is, did we demand an extra bottle of wine as gesture of goodwill. This was not given and we got 2 glasses of house red. At the end of the meal and a humbling apology from the manager and clearly embarrassed at too many orders not being fulfilled by the kitchen were we treated to some desserts free of charge. Too late damage has been done. Yes the food was good and thanks for the free extras but is a 45 minute worth the wait. No."

"We had two wonderful dinners at Bombay Blues during our 5-day stay in the city. Both times, the wait staff were extremely understanding and amenable to our dietary requirements and made sure to customise certain dishes for us to suit our dietary restrictions and palates, and the results were delicious. Over the two days, we had, between the four of us, the Goan Salmon curry, prawn curry, kadai sabzi, jeera lemon rice, aloo paratha, papdi chaat (especially fantastic! , pani puri, tadka dal, and the thali. A special mention must go to the yummy garlic naan in the thali, the perfectly seasoned channa masala, the flavourful tadka dal, as well as the decadent gajar halwa and kheer sweet dishes, which were extremely authentic, made with top quality ghee, very lightly sweetened (which suited us perfectly and utterly soul satisfying. The only thing missing from the kheer, for 100% authenticity, was perhaps a smidge of cardamom and/or saffron, and some ghee-roasted cashewnuts in the gajar halwa. All in all, two very tasty and thoroughly enjoyable meals at Bombay Blue, and we'd be happy to return again in the future the next time we visit Glasgow. Very good value for money and a genuinely warm and joyful experience for all of us."

"Tawa offers a great variety of Indian dishes that go beyond the standard fare. The menu features an equal mix of vegetarian and meat options, offering traditional flavors along with innovative twists to please different palates. From the appetizers to the main courses, each dish was beautifully presented. Our total bill came to a reasonable £120 for four, which included starters, mains, drinks, and tip. Given the quality of the food, the enjoyable ambiance, and the exceptional service, I found it to be a fair price for a memorable dining experience. If I had to offer one critique, it would be that the tables are a bit cramped, necessitating some careful navigation of our space. Additionally, while the restaurant has a modern, industrial vibe—which is appealing—it feels more suited for a quick meal than for a leisurely evening out. Overall, Tawa Indian Restaurant in Cambridge is a hidden gem for anyone craving delicious Indian cuisine. Its close proximity to the train station, combined with outstanding service and a vibrant menu, makes it an excellent choice for dining with friends or family. **Service:** Dine-in **Meal type:** Dinner **Price per person:** £30–40 **Food:** 5 **Service:** 5 **Atmosphere:** 4 **Recommended dishes:** Chicken Biryani **Recommendation for vegetarians:** Somewhat recommend **Vegetarian offerings:** Large vegetarian selection"

"We are vegetarian indian from london with two kids and stayed in Salisbury for weekend. We had dinner at cafe Diwali and it was one of the best experience.. food, staff cooperation and ambience everything was perfect. We had cooler mint drink, Chana Mashroom, dal tadka, palak paneer, rice and naan.. lastly tried Peshawar Naan (first time) which was the best. I would recommend everyone (specially Indians) to try this restaurant if you are staying in Salisbury or nearby. Value for money as well. Will definitely come again.. thanks Cafe Diwali and good wishes."
