We have used this restaurant for the past 3 years and wouldn't go anywhere else. We visit in house 2-3 times a year on our birthdays and anniversaries. And have at least 1 takeaway a month. Always with 10% discount on collection. Wether eating in or take away the food is amazing. So tasty, generous portions and cooked to perfection. And very fairly priced. The mango and pistachio ice creams are always a must after the meal. The staff are always so attentive and nothing is too much trouble. They are friendly and professional but can still have a laugh and a joke about which adds to the atmosphere and ambiance. We have always booked before eating in as you can rarely get seated if you just walk in-a tell tale sign of just how good it is here. Very clean, and mellow authentic Indian decor throughout. Definitely recommend this place

Mac - the owner, and Shamah - the waiter (I hope I have spelt both correctly) are the absolute life and soul of this restaurant. I would recommend takeaway because the food is absolutely incredible but I think the service here is my favourite part of the experience. Dress like a king or wear your shorts and flip flops, it doesn't matter, each of these gentlemen will treat you like the most important person in the room. I have been in to eat twice and I would (and often do) recommend this place to anybody that will listen. New Bengal is the pinnacle of high Street Indian restaurants and especially so in Gosport. I couldn't be happier with everything I've experienced here. Excellent food, incredible service, and a meal that will leave you full but fully satisfied. I couldn't comment on the deserts because I've been far too full on both occasions. Extremely generous portions but perfect for loving and sharing. Thank you new bengal and special thanks to Mac and Shamah.

Got take away as we visited without reservation. The staff were friendly and the food was prepared well. They also offer 10% discount on takeaways.

I've used the New Bengal since 1973, so have known it for nearly 50 years. Sunni, Mac and Sol's Dad was the first owner I knew and the boys have kept his excellent traditions going. The food is lovely and they will adjust the menu to your choice. Always best to book.

This is the best Indian restaurant on the South Coast. The food and service is exceptional. I had chicken balti, the best that I have ever tasted. They have a lot of regular customers and people celebrating. They also do take away meals. Their take away menu is online.

Probably the best Indian meal I've had and believe me I've been to lots of great Indian restaurants in Southall etc. The mixed lamb starter and a goan lamb dish for main was to die for. Will be travelling down special from Northampton occasionally from now on as it was that good.

Excellent staff, friendly and attentive, the food was good but not the absolute best I've ever had and the restaurant was very busy and a bit on the noisy side.

Very easy to order online. Our foid was ready on time. The 4 meals we had were all superb. Generous portions. The lamb byriani was the best, the lamb just melted.

Food beautiful and lovely atmosphere. Had a small issue tonight though when ordering for collection. Was told the total was £30.90 including the 10% collection discount. Asked to pay seperately and they were asking for over £16 each saying it is more if you pay seperately which it shouldn't be as he said he still applied the 10% discount to us both. Tried to explain his maths was wrong but he wouldn't listen and he was insinuating I was being petty over 2 or 3 pound. Simple maths £10 order with 10% off is £9 If you pay separetely £5 with 10% off is £4.50 £5 with 10% off is £4.50 £4.50+£4.50 =£9 STILL SAME PRICE! Food was really great though, would definitely recommend. Just don't ask to split a bill when there are discounts involved.
