This small but well run restaurant serves decent curry dishes at a reasonable price. 6 of us descended on a Friday night after a few jars at the nearby Plough and all of us left satisfied.

I had the tandoori chicken on the bone to start which was juicy and succulent, then for main went for the lamb tali tikka massala which was very tasty. I've had some seriously dodgy tikka massalas in the past including one whose main ingredient was Heinz tomato soup but this was very good, full of flavour, nicely seasoned and with a bit of a kick which I guess is what the 'tali' indicates. This was accompanied by pilau rice and a paratha which was particularly good. Some of my companions opted for the jalfrezi and commented that it was particularly spicy, I presume because of the numerous green chillies it contained! Be careful if you don't like your curry too hot. Also of note was the lack of oil visible in any of the dishes which is not always the case with local Indian restaurants and made for a pleasant surprise.

This is a nice curry house serving good, flavourful curry which I would happily visit again.

I’ve tried many Indian restaurants around the world, and this is the best lamb madras I have ever had, with some of the best garlic naan anywhere to be found anywhere, and a perfect Pilau Rice. Beautiful and delicious food, with kind and conscientious service, in an impeccably clean premises. Thank you to the people who work there for a truly great experience.

We have been to Curry Leaf several times now and have enjoyed it each time. The food in particular is amazing, I would recommend both the Lamb Karahi and the Shatkora Gosth however each dish we have tried has been delicious. It is also BYOB which makes the final bill quite cheap considering how good the food is.

Greeted with a smile followed by delicious food. Everything was not only tasty but also had a distinctive and clean flavour. The Peshwari naan was superb and the chicken Pasanda flavourful. All rhe Indian classics like aloo gobi and saag aloo were all divine. Correctly priced it makes a great place for satisfy your cravings for Indian food.

Can't comment on atmosphere as I get food delivered in. I judge all curry houses on how tender the lamb dishes are and the heat quota of the madras. Curry Leaf get it spot on, the lamb is tender and succulent with a nice heat sting on the palette. Not blisteringly hot but you know you've had a great hot(ish) curry. Nice Bombay Aloo, tasty thin peshwari naan (not a big doughy mess), and great rice accompaniments. Only criticism is put the chicken pakora for delivery in a greaseproof paper bag to allow it to breath. Putting it in a foil dish makes it sweat and turn up soggy. (The cure though is 3 minutes in the air fryer at 180° to crisp up again). All in all, highly recommended.

My wife and I come in often, being from indian descent, it reminds me of the cooking I ate with my parents when visiting old school british curry houses. The BYOB policy makes it very accessible. The paneer shashlik dishes are very good, bread choices are execellent but my personal favourite is the chicken madras which has the right amount of heat I expect! The staff are super friendly and helpful, they are happy to reccomend a dish based on your preferences, which is a massive plus when bring someone who is not sure and what they would personally get. They are absolutely lovely and make the experience that more special. I would highly reccomend anyone who happens to live nearby to go in for dinner sometime. They also deliver if you cannot be bothered to walk down!

Went in on a weekday early evening. Took basic stuff: chicken jalfrezi, sag aloo, plain naan. It was so tasty, better than many similar restaurants. I was very happy with the food. Service was adequate. There is an off-license very close, if you want to bring a beer you can get it there.

Always a tasty meal from here. Great food and a proper selection of North Indian fare. Highly recommended for that curry and pint of lager, but it is bring your own booze. And all of good continuing quality.
