Lovely food, good selection, 3small plates and sides option is brilliant as that means you can try different dishes and my options were really tasty!

We had organised a birthday party here. The booking process was super easy, and the staff were very helpful and accommodating.
For parties they have a chef's tasting menu. On the day the place was spacious, the food was plentiful and very tasty. The staff were so nice and the service was fantastic despite our guests crowding the aisles! Johnny the manager and his team were always smiling and prompt with all the requests. The vegetarian and non-vegetarian options were great and they catered for a guest with dietary intolerance really well. Really cannot praise the enough. Highly recommended!
Fabulous food, small menu which had enough to please all tastes but easy to make a choice. Quick and friendly service, good advice, will definitely go again. A modern restaurant with really interesting choices and style, the samosa was out of this world!
Superb Indian cuisine, although I only ttied the Veg options. Excellent hospitality, good ambience, decently busy, parking available .
Food presentation was top notch as you can make out from the pics. Taste was authentic. Will certainly come back with friends and family.
Summer visit, late review. I ordered from the early evening menu. All the food was absolutely delicious, probably some of the best Indian food in Newcastle. The staff are lovely as well and are helpful with dietary requirements. Highly recommend the mango lassi as well
This restaurant has amazing food! It is well worth a visit and I intend to return. The service is excellent and friendly. Very up-market food. We had a selection of special plates so we could try more of the things on the menu.
A friend of mine suggest that we meet for lunch rather than the usual dog walk (it was very wet!) and we met up for lunch. Arrived early so was almost empty but it filled up fairly rapidly. We ate from the lunch menu which gave a good selection of starters and mains. The service was prompt and very welcoming and the food arrived quickly and well presented. The waitresses were attentive but in no way over powering and food was excellent. I believe this is a favoured venue for students at night bu there were mainly older parties in at lunch (we fitted this demographic!) I had been to this restaurant many years ago when it was under different management and had another name (probably nearly 40 years ago!) and it is now much better. Highly recommended both for food and service. Thank you to all the staff and my friend for suggesting it!
Excellent Indian restaurant serving fresh expertly cooked dishes of the highest quality.
This is not a ghee soaked pile it high place - the decor and atmosphere are fantastic, relaxed but professional all at once. Service was fantastic and the overall ambience wonderful.
Utterly recommend.
Very impressive restaurant hidden away down a back street. The food was delicious, probably the Best Madras I have ever tasted. The staff were all lovely and helpful. We were seated early and didn't have to wait long for food despite it being a busy Friday night. Would highly recommend a visit!
We tried this place by recommendation from our Airbnb host as it was right around the corner from our stay. Great customer service, seated immediately without a reservation (although I would recommend reserving first). My fiancé and I ordered 4 small plates, pulao rice, garlic naan, & 2 desserts. Everything was absolutely delicious, but I particularly loved the sweet potato tempura. One thing to note is that it was very busy which caused the inside to be quite loud. Aside from that, absolutely no complaints!

I visited New castle in the month of June for 2 nights break. I stayed in Jesmond so I googled this restaurant before hand and visited on the first day of my visit for lunch and was really surprised with the taste, ambience and the feel. We tried the chicken started which was really good and the thali which was wholesome. I visited them again for dinner on the second day and ordered similar stuff from the menu. They are welcoming and know what they are doing. There is one more branch in the city centre but I visited only the jessmond branch. Definitely try this place if you visit New castle not that far away from Jessmond dene if you are into walking.
Flavourful lunch time menu in warm and comfortable surroundings.
Great presentation of items, meat cooked well and very tender, and lovely mix of flavours. Dhal makhani was buttery, creamy with a bit of a kick. Bhel puri had brilliant mix of flavours and textutes - tamarind, pomegranate, savoury, hint of sweet. Rotis were normal, nothing special but did the job. Elderflower sprint was spot on for how I like it - quite sweet, some syrupyness and full of flavour.
I had bhel puri (£4.70),mixed grill (~12.65) and elderflower spritz (~£5). Friend had non veg thali (~12.60) and desi tea.
Good friendly service but a bit patchy the requested tap water coming after a couple of requests. Also hope our tip went to our lovely waitress rather than to the owners contrary to previous reviewers reports...
Recommend coming for the flavourful lunch menu when venue is nice and bright, but kept warm and comfy

Wow, it was a gem in the heap of doubts. I loved this place & all the dish I had ordered. Loved the kadhai paneer, yellow lentils, rumali roti, rice, aubergine, tandoori butter roti. Though dabbawala masala tea was ok. Must visit place.
Best Indian restaurant in Newcastle, hands down! Nearly entire menu is Gluten Free, atmosphere really nice and staff couldn't be more accommodating in any aspect! 10/10
This is the first time that we have tried their lunch takeaway menu as only ever visited in the evening. All I can say is wow 👍 The food was excellent as usual and safely packaged for the trip home. We had a chicken wrap, the smoked box and also the gunpowder potato salad. All if it was just amazing and the staff were brilliant. Ordered at 1130 and picked up just after 12pm when they opened. We will certainly be back, thanks
Love this place! My girlfriend recommended it & it's a hidden gem I would never have known exists without her mentioning it. Although this doesn't mean it's not popular. We went on a standard Tuesday evening and by 7pm it was busy but still felt comfortable.
The service was excellent, staff are very happy & seem proud of what they serve.
The food is absolutely outstanding. I'm vegetarian and the choices were excellent.
Highly recommend!
