"The food tested proper pakistani food without any tomato puree or cream. compared to other restaurants, pakistani restaurants, this restaurant has great taste. The atmosphere was alright. It's not Morden or new; it looks old what I do want to suggest them that they should change the plates and glass because they were old."

"You would have to search far and wide to find an Indian restaurant that matches Avatar. We've been dining here for years, and it just keeps getting better. The recent renovations are impressive, creating a modern and welcoming atmosphere. The staff are exceptional, and you can see that the manager genuinely cares about the restaurant and puts in a lot of effort to ensure you have a great experience. The unique “Chef’s specialty” dishes are delightful and definitely worth a try. I can't recommend it highly enough!"

"Clean surroundings but it was a warm summer evening and no air conditioning so quite stuffy and humid inside. Reasonable selection of dishes, all fresh and fairly tasty. As far as curries go if you 're a proper foody curry connoisseur you may be disappointed as they werent extra tasty delicious. They tasted like they were batch cooked and wouldnt say bland but not as good as some other places ive been to. Nothing screamed out as amazing. The starters were nice- probably the reshmi kebab was their best option. The tikka passed the test for me enough flavour to not need extra condiments! I can 't be overly critical- it was nice but nothing special. The only real proper negative I 'd have to say is they charge full adult prices for 9 year olds. So if you have small kids who don 't really eat much it -quickly becomes cheaper to go to a normal non buffet restaurant and probably get more 'made to order ' tastier varied food . Whilst the dessert range is limited it was done very well. Good quality ice cream and chocolate cake, fresh Asian desserts- gulabjam, gajar halwa and kheer were all fantastic and freshly made. Also a slightly bizarre drinks choice- the unlimited refills options is limiter to just cola. No idea why it can 't include other soft drinks. Strange. But worth noting that the staff were very friendly attentive and hard working."

"We visited Mala Indian Restaurant in Canary Wharf last Saturday. I had a booking for 19:30 and they kept our table ready by the river side. It was a fantastic view to have while eating. The service was quick, even though the restaurant was very busy and following all COVID guidelines. For starters, we ordered a mixed platter of lamb seekh kebab, fish, and a vegetarian cutlet, all of which were fresh and delicious. For the main course, I had the butter chicken while my spouse ordered a vegetarian thali, which included a variety of dishes including a delicious okra masala. Our 4-year-old daughters enjoyed their meals as well. We also had a few drinks... Overall, our experience at Mala Indian Restaurant was delightful and we would definitely recommend it."

"A bit of an institution in this area!! The decor is as basic as you can get, couple that with the authenticity of the food and the very reasonable price and you're onto a winner. Don't be fooled by the more glamorous looking establishments down the road this is definitely worth a visit. We ordered a couple of starters and the full chicken curry between 4 of us and we still had some leftovers. Sheekh kebab starters were nice and spicy and the chicken curry was tender and flavoursome. The chicken pieces were cut much smaller than you'd usually find and it worked very well. Miso full!"

"Visited here midweek evening. Table was dirty with food crumbs stuck to the menu. Floor felt sticky. No one attended as I was walked in so just sat at table. A waiter looked at me a few times but never came over. Eventually another waiter came over but only after she had taken the order of a table that arrived after me. I ordered karahi gosht, 2 tandoori roti and fries. Food arrived promptly (and some salad). It was piping hot which was good since it was so cold outside. Food tasted good nice and spicy. Even though the gosht pieces tasted nice, I just found the karahi a bit too saucy and the sauce itself didn’t feel so tasty. Pricing was fine. Place looked busy so clearly popular. Food is good but the place needs a good clean regularly. They take cards too."

"Where do is start with the restaurant... Firstly the food was limited we had to wait 10/15 minutes for rice to be cooked, ban bread to be cooked, the salad was stale and not fresh, the chicken jalfrezi looked old and all mashed, the jelly was not set at all. Secondly the service, the drinks came after 10 minutes of us being there. The mango lassi was so watery and no hint of mango in it. They had no sprite, 7up or diet coke. Thirdly the bill, the staff was so argumentative about the age of our children. I have given birth to my children and know how old they are, they may appear older physically however the staff member became defensive and said they do not look their age. I found this very saddening that for couple of pounds the male staff member wanted to argue with me in front of my young children who he could see was getting clearly distressed. I offered him to pay full however he had the decency to say that you have done this before. Accusing me of being untruthful about my children’s age and visiting the restaurant before. Then he had the nerves to ask my children in front of me ‘you have visited here before’ which my children stated no its our first time. This is how unprofessional the staff and illmannerd they are as they asked my children when me as a parent confirmed that i have not visited the restaurant before... I am still upset, angry and hurt by the staff members allegations of being untruthful. I will never visit this restaurant, please stay away from this place."

"A friend of mine has been raving about this place for the past 18 months. He told me that for a real home cooking experience, it cannot be beaten in Cardiff. We ate there last night, and I must agree with him. It was excellent. If you want a restaurant with fawning waiting staff dressed in a take off of their traditional clothing, push seating, soft lights, sitar music, and, worst of all, a modernised menu with eye watering prices, this is not a place for you. The décor is nothing to get excited about. Basically, the plain walls are decorated with the menu and details of various meal deals. The lighting is bright, the tables and chairs are very basic, but not uncomfortable. My friend did the ordering. I was very surprised. We both have hearty appetites, but he only ordered three starters for each of us, followed by one main course. When I questioned him, he told me not to worry as we could order more if it was necessary. We both started with Vegetable Samosa, Vegetable Pakora, and Onion Bhaji. They were beautifully spiced, and not at all greasy. All were delicious, and the Sasmosa was as good as any that I have ever eaten Cardiff. Our main course was Kerela Gosht. Three very large patties of superbly seasoned minced meat, came accompanied with Salad plus Mint and Yoghurt dressing, and two Nan Breads. The Nan was the best that I have eaten anywhere. Super tasty and. all for £7.00 !!! Amazing value. There was a small selection of typically Eastern Deserts. My friend assured me that the Rice Pudding was to die for. Sadly, I was too stuffed to even think of eating another morsel. I will certainly have it next time. And the Lamb Karahi which looked amazing. Though we were the only two Brits in the place, we did not feel out of place for a moment, as the staff and the other diners were so friendly. It was indeed a pleasure to relax and enjoy eating our food the proper way, using the Nan rather than cutlery. without being stared at. Our total bill came to a miserly £13.00. and I highly recommend this hidden gem."

"You are my new go to Asian Takeaway. I’ve got bored of the meat with spicy gravy that a lot of Indian and Bangladeshi places serve. If you order any expensive meat from these places you usually get 4 paltry pieces swimming in tons of sauce for £8. A bit jaded, I wanted a curry but I didn’t want a curry from any of ‘those’ places. You popped up on Just eat and I love your Kati Rolls. So I thought we are in with a good chance here. We ordered a beef roll, Meat samosa, the lamb curry and the mixed beef and chicken rice. Wow is all I can say. Plenty of meat in everything a good level of spice and those Meat Samosa are fantastic. They even rival Keralan Karavan’s samosa but are just different. A week later I ordered for me and I didn’t tell him I was ordering it) my Asian friend who’s 2nd generation, parents from India and grew up in Bristol. He is super critical of any ‘curry’ he eats. He absolutely loved it. Thanks for showing me Asian Takeaways can be good."
"I am a frequent customer of takeaways and eat in this special restaurant. was not for one because, although due to diets and other healthy eating patterns visited on 26/08/19, eating and service was pathetic! not sure what went wrong service was bad, took too long to serve food, cutlery and water! chikken tikka biriyani tasted differently than usual, but they complained too much. a little oily but taste was not badly lame hacking, slender and more bone. not the ordinary miracle. not tasty as before to finish nan brote, we ordered karahi fish. fish was 100% off and ranked! unfortunately I served a spoon full on my teller to go with naan brot and I was almost...more"

"Average food at best. My wife and I ordered Achari Chicken and Chicken Biryani for the main course. My wife did not like the Biryani and my Achari Chicken tasted more like Achaar then Chicken. I know I should have expected as much, but I was expecting a blend of both flavours. For started we ordered Poppadoms and a portion of samosas (one meat and the other veg). The poppadoms were fresh and the veg samosa was quite nice, however the meat samosa was stuffed with too much meat. In my books that's not good, it also didn't help that the meat smelled a little, probably due to too much fat. Service We had to flag down waiters to serve us, take our order and to take our money. We didn't feel...read more"

"The food, the service, the music 10/10 for all of it! The grill was incredible and the meat was good quality. We defo recommend the charsi tikka and the chicken bhindi. The garlic naan was fresh off the stove and just delicious! On top of that the mocktails we had were so flavourful. We finished off with kheer and my my was it a great decision. My family and I had an incredible time eating fabulous food whilst listening to old-school Bollywood tunes, such a wonderful atmosphere. More than anything however the service goes above and beyond at this establishment! The lovely ladies who work here took care of us so well and made us feel like proper VIP guests! Will defo return!!!"

"If food is cooked with unconditional love and passion the result is bliss. Aladin's Kebabish- a 150 seater-restaurant in London's Hendon area is a paradise for food lovers. Mouth-watering Nihari with succulent lamb shanks, superlative Kheer (Phirni) and fresh breads from the Tandoor are a treat to have once in England. Traditional aroma of Nihari remains in your tastebuds for hours and its an amazingly reasonable restaurant. Loved by the South Asian diaspora as well as local British, it's a must visit when in London for any gastronomic lover. One can also experiment with various forms of Chicken/Lamb curries and a host of grilled options. Now the BEST part: The owner Mr Tanveer takes special care and interest by actively participating in each activity not just in the restaurant but also the kitchen. Goes to customers personally to ask about the quality and well-being which gives this place an edge over others."

"a head for anyone aged and above. Arrived at it was empty at that time which was nice. They were making some of the fresh started. The chicken tikka was amazing especially with it being fresh of the grill. Kebabs were more...potato than meat, samosas were standard frozen samosa, lamb chops were definitely not fresh and were cold, fish was very nice. Their rice was excellent, particularly the sweet rice. Also their range of curries are nice and taste good as well. Garlic naan didn't taste much of garlic to be fair. The desert section had: Gulab Jaman, Keehr, Vermicelli and a range of ice creams. The Kheer and Vermicelli were on point were nice , probably some of the best tasting deserts I've had in aweel. The gulab Jaman were particularly dry and tasted quite stale. Their ice cream section was just lacking on all sides, little taste, tasted very cheap and a poor selection. Customer Service: was great initially , once we were going through deserts they kept removing each plate as we emptied them what seemed to be a trick to get us to think we are done and out of the door despite them not being busy. Drinks cost a pop Overall give it a"
