First time at the new Akbar's, and just wow! The service was exceptional!! The ambience, lighting and atmosphere was dreamy. The food was out of this world. I highly recommend the Masala Fish (cod) for starters. The naan bread (or should I say carpet 😂) was incredible. I had the vegetable madras, which was so flavourful. Thank you so much for making my birthday very special. Cannot wait to return
Gorgeous food, brilliant service. Very welcoming.
We asked for our meal to come traditional style and the flavours were great, especially the charsi. Our waiter was Isa, so sweet and professional and took time to explain the dishes to us. Lovely atmosphere, good tunes and comfy restaurant.
Will definitely be back x
Service was really good the waitress was fully informed the cocktails and nan where really nice the the rice and the curry not so good the deco looks good it's a liitle bit dark could do with some more lighting properly warm white will suit it tryed again it was better the curry was quit large the nans are quit big they serve alcohol as well it's chilled out little busy cozy it's a little pricey
Lovely restaurant!Had a lovely time with all my friends.The ambience was perfect and the service was amazing.
We had come to the place for dinner, absolutley loved the lamb chops would definitely be back for more.The Naan was fresh out of the oven and delicious ❤️The Mango lassi jar was huge and delicious.The butter chicken and rest of the main course was really good as well.
What I loved the most was the service, the staff were very friendly and accommodating and made sure that we had a great time.
Tried this new restaurant in town a week or so back. Tried 5 different starters
1.chicken liver tikka
2. sheekh kebab
3.king prawns tikka
4.masala fish
5.chicken nambali
Also tried 3 different curries
1. Butter chicken ( can improve was too sweet for our tastebud)
2. Lamb charsi ( was the best )
3. Chicken and keema karahi
with garlic naan and Peshawari naan.
Great ambience and service.
Overall service, food quality and atmosphere good.
The portion side could be better. Eg. Rice. Dhal compared to the price as its low value. Although, says chicken wings on the menu, dish comes each with only a part of the wing. So, it's better to say half a chicken- wing to be accurate. 😃
Excellent service by Gopu, he introduced himself, took the order, and made some good suggestions from the menu . My Family thoroughly enjoyed the food and service by the staff especially gopu. Meat Karai was a good dish to try . The only suggestion was they could reduce some oil especially on palak paneer. I would definitely recommend the restaurant friends and family. The ambience and decor was good as well.
Second time here. Came with a friend and was served by Gopin. The service was brilliant, great attention to our requirements and great rapport. The food was very good. Love love loved the liver tikka. Would go again.
Delicious food. We ordered Papadom, Lamb Shank and Chicken Boneless. All dishes were tasty.. The big Garlic Naan is always our family favourite!
In a nutshell, a must visit restaurant if you are craving for Indian cuisine in Newcastle City.
Food choices are wide and well prepared when ordered. Portions are big.
Excellent service, attentive writers. Easy free parking area.
Absolutely delicious food 😋 and spot on service👍🏼 the waiter he was very helpful and friendly in choosing our dishes. The food took sometime to arrive but it was busy so I think that was the reason apart from that I definitely recommend trying it once atleast! 👍🏼
Came here looking for LuigiKahns, found Akbar's instead so decided stay and we weren't disappointed.
Ordered 2 starter's, seekh Kebab and meat chopps. Been Akbars in Bradford and Manchester and I have to say the food was better than I remember. Main we ordered a charsi Lamb Karahi asked for extra saucy. Excellent, could taste the lamb and all herbs and spices, not too hot. Staff were friendly and helpful. I would say better food than Manchester branch but not Bradford.
Great food and service. Served by Kannan who was very helpful and looked after us. The food is top notch and fresh. Akbar at its best 👍
This restaurant is always such a lovely place to dine. It exudes a warm and inviting ambiance that immediately puts you at ease. The staff and the manager are friendly and attentive, making you feel like a valued guest. The menu offers a delectable range of dishes to choose from, and the dishes are truly authentic and savory. From starters to desserts, it's truly outstanding and one of the best, I'd say. I would definitely recommend it.
I went to Akbars with a friend last night and the food was fantastic. I normally have a Karahi but was recommended the chicken Charsi which is one of Akbars signature dishes. It did have the hint of Karahi but wasn’t as spicy (just as I ordered) The service was first class and atmosphere very good. Would highly recommend trying it out.
Friendly staff and wonderful fast service. We have come here three times and have never been disappointed. Lamb charsi is incredible, but chicken charsi is also amazing. Dishes are not oily or with food colouring (like in some restaurants) - which tells you of their excellent standards. We shared one lamb charsi with naan between two people and this was more than enough for a dinner meal. Thank you to the incredible staff at Newcastle Akbar for a wonderful evening. The staff were also kind enough to keep us separate from a crowdy main area, and relocated us to quieter seating - always so considerate to certain requests.
