In Nottingham you are spoilt for choice on good Indian restaurants, Cumin is no exception. Good food and nice and friendly service. The wine list is excellent and they even offer non alcoholic Indian beer. A good choice if you on that end of the city centre.
After reading the two dividing comments on here i was a little apprehensive, but i needn't have been. The service, food and ambiance was excellent.
I've given this restaurant five stars as i honestly couldn't fault it. (i even asked if we (just two of us) could be seated side by side and this was no trouble)
Cumin has succeeded in becoming THE Indian restaurant in Nottingham in my opinion.
I have been traveling to Nottingham for many years, Cumin is my favorite restaurant. The staff is always friendly and the service is excellent. I went again the other night and my wife and I had an excellent meal. I have tried many of the starters as well as the mains. One of my favorite starters is the Haryali Chicken Tikka. One of my favorite mains is the Lamb Rogan Josh. I also like the keema naan. They have seating upstairs that provides additional room as it does get busy. I cannot wait till I am able to go back again!
A quaint small location with fantastic food. HANDS DOWN THE BEST SERVICE EXPERIENCE I HAVE HAD IN NOTTINGHAM. The owner was extremely personal and attentive to our every need, will undoubtedly go back many times over.
Very nice upscale Indian. Service was excellent and the food is very good. The menu could use a few more Mains, but other than that I highly recommend.
A lovely small Indian restaurant, with extra seating upstairs. Brilliant service, the staff went out of their way to ensure all our needs were met and there were no long waits between ordering & food arriving and between starters & mains even though we were a table of 7. The only reason it doesn't get the full 5 stars is because I felt the menu was a little limited and a lot of the dishes looked very similar. I am sure, however, had I requested something specific the kitchen would have produced it for me. Definitely a restaurant to try out in Nottingham, although I would recommend booking to avoid disappointment.
Earlier poster has clearly not been here lately. A business peer recommended this place and I'm glad she did. Ask the chef what to order. He chose a lamb dish for me. Fantastic. Great service and delicious wine. Would come back if I make it back to Nottingham.
Overall experience was simply fantastic. Because of obvious reasons, friendly service, unique tasty food! Everything went well from the time we came in till the end when we promised to come back, and I simply can't wait to! I guess, the highlight was the fact that the explained everything.
Would surely recommend!
Been twice on a Monday night now. Great tasting vegetarian food, flavours and subtle spices.
The Cumin is my favourite restaurant in Nottingham, and I love the food that they do, it tastes amazing! The lunchtime menu is also great!
There is plenty of options to choose from, and you can always look at the menu online if you're not sure there would be something there for you.
I would knock a star off because the food has been a bit slow on a couple of occassions, but the atmosphere is lovely and relaxing and when I got the food it tasted so good it was worth the wait!
One of the best Indian restaurants in town. The food is delicious and always freshly prepared. There's a good vegetarian range and a good selection of wine and beers. The decor is elegant and in keeping with Cumin's challenge to the upmarket Indian dining offered by its competitors (Mem Saab and others) on Maid Marian Way. However, Cumin has the edge though in relaxed dining. The service is fantastic and the staff and owners are friendly and helpful. How Sunny remembers everyone (and what they ordered on the previous visit) is beyond me.
Cumin is an absolute gem. The modern exterior leads to a classy interior with a small downstairs restaurant area and further seating upstairs. The welcome was wonderful and felt very inviting. The authentic menu offers something for everyone including an extensive vegetarian offering. I personally always judge an Indian restaurant by two dishes, their tikka starter and their chicken madras main. Both were excellent and in my personal opinion one of the best madras curries I have ever eaten. I would highly recommend if you find yourself looking for an amazing and value for money curry in Nottingham.
We visited Cumin without a prior booking, expecting it to be quiet as it was midweek. The downstairs dining area was already full, with us taking the last table…a testament to how popular this place is.
The food and service were first rate, with the staff eager to advise us about the dishes they served.
We would definitely visit again if we are in Nottingham, thanks for looking after us so well.
My boyfriend and I enjoyed a fantastic seafood and lamb dinner. The dishes were delicious, the service was great, and we had a wonderful time. Highly recommend for seafood and lamb lovers! Plus, it's the perfect spot to celebrate birthdays with its inviting ambiance and delightful cuisine.
It was a great experience to visit the restaurant with my parents in Nottingham, serves authentic Indian food with exemplary service. The authenticity of their food left a lasting impression, with flavors that transported me to the heart of India. The ambience was equally delightful, blending warm hues and subtle decor, creating a perfect setting for a memorable dining experience. Highly recommended for those seeking an authentic taste of India in a cozy atmosphere.
I recently had dinner along with my friends at Cumin and I must say, it was an absolute delight! The rich and aromatic flavors of each dish were a true celebration of Indian cuisine. The attentive staff and warm ambiance added to the overall wonderful experience. I highly recommend trying their diverse menu.
I came here with my partner and the food was amazing, also to mention the amount of food for the price will leave you stuffed!
The atmosphere was perfect, with the most friendly and professional service.
Definitely would recommend coming here and will visit again for sure.
Awesome food in a nice restaurant with equally good service. Well impressed for the price and managed to get us In at the last minute. Service was quick, efficient and friendly and the food was some of the best quality Indian cuisine I've eaten. Will definitely be back.
Went for a friend's birthday. Probably the best curry I've ever had.
The service was very efficient. The manger/owner and waiter were very attentive.
Bit shout out to the chefs who truly made all our meals delicious.
Had a beautifully cooked meal at Cumin yesterday evening, with 2 friends.
We each had a different dish from the menu, and all thought the food, presentation and service excellent.
Highly recommend this place and it’s owners - who go out of their way to provide a warm welcome and good old fashioned customer service.
Such a fantastic restaurant. The food tastes fresh & delicious and the staff are so kind. I have a tomato intolerance and they made a main dish specially for me without it and were very careful in showing me which starters were OK. Perfection!
One of the best Indian restaurants in Nottingham. Sunny is a lovely guy and really takes care of us every time we visit. Great food as always. Highly recommended!
It was a quiet Tuesday, but this place is lovely
Solo dining and the restaurant was just near my hotel and had a vegan menu so the perfect choice.
Indian food is by its nature often vegetarian, but it’s good to see a restaurant offering a full vegan menu
Okra fries and dip for starter
Tava Aloo Raviya for main with chips and chapatis
The bill came to around £26 including a service charge, which is great value
Good choice and would eat here again if on the
I went here on valentine's day with my girlfriend and we were greeted with friendly service and lots of care and attention. The food was amazing, in particular the chicken korma and the chicken jalfreezi. We never felt rushed into making a decision which is particularly refreshing on such a busy evening. The cocktails were also very nice with the mojito being our highlight.
Beautiful place - first time visiting yesterday and the food was GORGEOUS! Portion sizes a little small I think but overall amazing and the staff were all so lovely and helpful. Plus they serve alcohol and cocktails which is a brucy bonus too!
By far the BEST indian restaurant i have EVER been to! I was here for my husband's work do! Everything tasted amazing! The manager and the waitresses were very hospitable and patient. The food tasted beautiful and each dish had its own distinctive flavours! Just wonderful! And them onion bhajis! Maaannnm i couldnt get enough of them! AMAZING! Definately coming back for another visit!
