"The staff at this restaurant were friendly and attentive, creating a warm and welcoming environment. The menu offered a wide range of choices, and I particularly enjoyed the Saag Crab dish which had a new combination of flavors for me. Others in my party tried the korma, dansak, and masala dishes, all of which were rated excellent. I would not hesitate to book again the next time we are in London. Thank you very much."

"We hadnt been here for a good few years but used to be regulars when we lived on Alma Vale Road. We walked in last night to get a take away, orrdering a Chicken Bom and a King Prawn Jalfry with Garlic and Mushroom rices, two plain and two spicy popadoms. The service was good and the food arrived quickly and was hot. Both curry dishes were a bit bland with little depth to the flavours and were far to oily to be enjoyable. The spiced podadoms werent cooked but the rices, whilst a little oily were fine with a good balance of teh respective garlic and mushroom. We are glad that we didnt dine in, the decor is tired and teh table settings uninspiring. Overall just an average experience for us. Because of the blandness and consistency of teh main dishes we didnt find that the Bristol Raj offered good value for money"

"Firstly the 2 star EHO sticker in the window is somewhat concerning, however the fact on the EHO website it is marked with a 1 star is confusing! The food is consistently inconsistent. Some visits is OK others not. Generally the restaurant and toilets need some attention to detail regarding cleanliness and the staff although polite, struggle to communicate effectively. Its a shame really as Newtown struggles for decent restaurants. I would need to see at least 3 stars for me to visit again."

"White tablecloth, scrape the crumbs off the table kind of place, but not stuffy. You can still dress casually. Our waitress provided excellent service, and the food was very solid. We ordered a fish sampler for two (which was an appetizer platter), palak chat, dal makhani, and naan. It was a perfect amount of food for two. The tandoori salmon that was part of the platter was surprisingly delicious."

"My family ordered dinner from this restaurant tonight, and my sister exclaimed that it was the best curry she has ever had. She mentioned that she would be willing to travel just to dine here again. The meal was amazing and arrived on time as scheduled. We were very pleased with both the flavor and heat of the dishes."

"Great food and great service We went to Wild Ginger based on a recommendation from a friend that lives locally. We weren’t disappointed, the food was great and the staff were fantastic. It got really busy just after we arrived (Saturday evening) but the service was very efficient, drinks orders were brought very quickly and our waiter was knowledgeable about the menu and recommended side dishes to accompany our mains. The food was delicious and the restaurant has a good atmosphere. We'll be visiting again next time we’re in Aberdeen. Highly recommended!"

"Faulty Towers at its' best bless them. The food was lovely and having been there many times years before I had no preceeding worries. However, when we arrived the waiters in an effort to be attentive I assume stood next to us and would not leave us be. The staff take it in turns to stand exceptionally close to us at the table waiting for our order. We had only just arrived. Once we had poppadoms they kept on trying to take them away in order to put down the main meal. We were happy to keep the Papadoms alongside the main meal. The manager then came over and said they normally take the plates away to the Papadoms to them being the main meal but his staff told him we wanted to keep them as had nlt finished them. We looked at one another at the table quite puzzled as to why this was unusual. When ordering the mains we needed some time to look at the menu and discuss it between us but they refused to leave the table. I think they were trying to be over attentive but the result was a very awkward and an uneasy experience. We even ask them to give us a few moments and they said yes and continued to stand up against the table waiting for the order.We asked to take the food home that was left and they readily agreed and we thought they would take the food away and bring it back packaged. However, they arrived with carrier bags and boxes without lids and handed them out to us so we on our night out had to then dispense dinners into boxes and lids were requested. All in all it was a rather bizarre experience and not a patch on what it used to be years ago. I'm sure they're just trying to be attentive perhaps but it really was a Faulty Towers experience and exceptionally awkward and bizarre."

"Booked for New Year's Eve. £69.99 per head. Service adequate but I have to say the food was not good. Pre prepared and not fresh. The amuse bouche was a piece of French bread with smoke salmon, more like a badly done canape. The Starters were accompanied by limp salad, the plates they were served on very cold evidencing they had just been sitting uncovered in a fridge. Very odd rock hard goat's cheese, and for others, 3 tiny pieces of dry sardine. As for the main, beef wellington, the fillet of beef overcooked and resembled a piece of shoe leather, I doubted it was even fillet. The pastry was raw on the inside and undercooked, and soggy on the outside. Think had been pre cooked and microwaved. Worst beef wellington I have ever seen. We all sent back and chef offered rack of lamb.Sadly this was presented raw, not rare, with huge chunks of broccoli, soggy roast potatoes and carrots. Those who ate fish said was adequate, but the spinach and ricotta filo main had by one was also raw and underdone. As for the apple tart, again some received ice cold from the fridge, others luke warm although the flavour was good. Actually spoilt New Year's Eve and we left hungry. What was even more annoying is that I believe we were not charged for 2 bottles of wine, but were expected to pay for the nasty food. I would rather have paid for the £60 wine. I will be contacting the restaurant owner for a full refund, minus the wine. I can't believe we were actually charged £75 a head for the meal, pretty disgraceful in my opinion. We actually doubted whether there was a chef in the kitchen......"

"I have used this curry house for over a year has always been nice the last 2 times I have ordered it wasn’t great lacked flavour but I gave them the benefit of the doubt as I have never had a problem before and decided to give then one last try. Ordered a takeaway this evening, I would say it was the worst takeaway I have ever had, this is the first time I have ever wrote a review! Waited over an hour for the curry and it turned up stone cold, rang them they said there would be a new one coming in 15 mins, they exchanged the cold one for the new one and its was even more cold than the first !! The chicken tikka masala was freezing no flavour and was soo watery the water was swimming round my plate and the chicken so dry and chewy. I threw it all away. Would never ever in a million years order from this place again."

"Well done Kingston. You now have an avant-garde restaurant to sit alongside your artisan coffee shops. I had my meal being oblivious to the terms use which annoyed me later. I would have taken pictures. Clearly they are not going into battle first so I must have missed advancing art at play. Maybe the cutlery was a little to the left? Does adding on a prentitious title to the restaurant name make the food better? And why french? The main had a take away feel to it. It was heavy and bland. Very very bland. The sauce had decided it was actually a soup. The texture of the chicken was unusual. Despite being hungry I found half was enough and fell back onto the breads which seemed ok. Service lacked any warmth whatsoever. As I see another reviewer pointing out, I ate in an empty restaurant and felt a bit unwelcome. It was a very quick meal for that reason. Not sure the huge shop front windows with every passing bus staring in at me helped. Maybe Kingston isn 't quite ready for avant-garde just yet? Nor am I."

"I booked this 2 months ahead but there wasn’t a table ready. When we asked it was like they were doing us a favour by allowing us to sit together. Of all the red wines on the menu they only had 1 available, so no choice. After 2 couples left we were the only people there. The food, however, was really good. Beautifully cooked and presented"

"My wife and I visited this restaurant this evening. It was surprisingly quiet for a Saturday night, does that say something? Despite this, we waited a long time for our food and drinks order to be taken, we almost left, I wish we had... The food when it came. was tasty and quite good, although my lamb dish was rather sloppy. However, the real worry was when I took a trip to the gents toilets to find that the only toilet was in a disgusting state with a broken toilet seat lying on the floor. To make matters even worse, the equally disgusting wash basin had no water coming out of it at all, so it was a real worry. If that’s the state of the toilet, what’s the kitchen like, uggh.... I hope we don’t have any consequences health wise and I’m afraid we won’t be returning to this restaurant."
