Reviews Memsaab

Food was amazing nice clean restaurant good service will definitely come again

Really lovely food and service.

this was a very nice restaurant to go to, I preordered online and was expecting to pick it up at 6 but it was ready 15 minutes early. the staff were very nice and it was a great meal. the portions however were way to big to finish and I only managed half

Fantastic food in a charming environment served by very friendly and helpful staff. The selection is quite elcletic, with traditional Indian dishes augmented by Afghan and Nepalese specialities. The prices are average within this food genre, but the product is high quality. All dishes are superbly cooked and well presented. Price for 2, (main course and desert, 1 drink each) is circa £22 The restaurant is child friendly.

Consistently Superb Cuisine We come to Memsaab relatively regularly, and have been doing so for some years now. We usually buy takeaways, but occasionally eat in the restaurant too. The food has always been delicious and cooked well, and the service is polite, friendly, and efficient. After having tried other Indian restaurants in the locality, I would elect Memsaab as the best Indian restaurant in the area. Lately, I have seen and been quite concerned by a few disappointing online reviews from other diners written during the earlier months of 2023, interestingly being submitted on mobile. We dined at Memsaab for New Year’s Eve 2023, and as well as having a very good meal, we observed other diners, and the waiting times for a few customers collecting takeaways, and noted precisely none of the problems described in the aforementioned reviews. Our meal worked out at roughly £25 each, including drinks and service (at 10%) – this restaurant offers great food at good value! We had a very good evening with excellent food, promptly and politely served. When we arrived, we were promptly shown to our table, noticing the manager was absent from his usual spot. The kitchen and front of house operated smoothly, and he later appeared in chef's whites, explaining he had assisted in the kitchen due to a surge in orders. Our drinks and papadoms came very quickly, with generous quantities of four relishes. For our meal, we ordered eight dishes, which we shared between us. The time from ordering to serving at the table was around 25 minutes (the order was freshly cooked). We ordered a range of dishes, starting with the chicken dhansak, which was very tasty, coming with freshly cooked pilao rice. To join this, we ordered: a vegetable korma (delicious creamy sauce, with a good variety of vegetables, all gently and subtly spiced, and plenty of coconut); a chana masala (gently spicy, well-balanced flavours); onion bhajis (generously portioned, freshly cooked and pleasantly moist and crisp); saag paneer (deliciously creamy, very vegetarian friendly); brinjal bhaji (not actually on the menu, but the chef made a very decent effort, considering it was only cooked in less than half an hour). We also ordered peshwari naan, which had generous quantities of ground almonds and coconut. As we were there, the restaurant was reasonably busy, with multiple people collecting takeaways, and many restaurant tables being occupied. There were no apparent delays in service, and people around us were notably satisfied, especially the group opposite our table. In light of potential concerns delineated in a few reviews from earlier in the year, our visits during 2023 serve to validate Memsaab’s sterling standards in quality, service, and ambience. I hereby warmly express my continued recommendation for Memsaab of Lavenham. PS: a (belated) Happy New Year! As we embark on 2024, let's appreciate the hard work of restaurants and ensure that our critiques are constructive and fair.

Made a quick stop in Lavenham on our way back home. We enjoyed the food, the service and the welcoming atmosphere.

Amazing restaurant! The food and atmosphere was great - thank you Raj and the rest of the staff for such a lovely meal!

Really lovely restaurant with some curries and dishes that I have't seen before. We both tried new curries and it was delicious, the naans are already cut up so they don't take up half the table which is thoughtful. Restaurant itself is stylish and also felt traditional, staff are very friendly and it was busy which is also a good sign. If I lived in the area than I would be back.

Delicious food. The portions are large, so we had two meals out of the order. If you enjoy Indian flavours do yourself a favour and visit.

Up Market and Sophisticated Restaurant. Destination Restaurant . Great Buzz and Menu

Delicious. Excellent with allergies and dietary requirements

Had takeaway a number of times and always excellent. Dining in a bit mixed, though - we waited two whole hours for food (arrived at 7:30pm, ordered within ten minutes, but although poppadoms came fairly quickly, our main courses then didn't appear until well after 9:30pm). Perhaps the kitchen was too busy with takeaway orders!
