10. The Tawa House

As a first timer in The Tawa house on my nephews recommendation. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the great big Tawas ( flat round cast iron griddle) with an impressive amount of food on them. It wasn't long before giving my name to the young lady at the counter we were taken to our seats. The table was initially booked for 16 however, extra guests turned up, Mohammed the owner ( I'm guessing ) obliged and arranged extra seating at such a busy time on Saturday evening, which I was grateful for. I was ready to place the order and was going to order 6 Tawas for sharing between 23 of us but was a little confused as this was my first time, I asked Mohammed for some assistance, who told me that 6 would be too much for our group (I appreciated his honesty). The salad was fresh and complimentary. The Tawas were so large with a variety of starters including chicken,Donner meat, seekh kebabs, chicken and meat curries served with nan rotis, fries, all placed around the huge Tawa, sizzling and looked very appetising. We tucked in and the food was just as tasty as it looked, excellent quality. I highly recommend this place and would definitely eat there again when visiting Yorkshire. Thumbs up from our group.

We came here at 10:40pm they close at 11pm, and they welcomed us in still! The service was wonderful, the waiter was exceptional, so friendly. Best lamb chops we have EVER had so juicy and thick not too spicy, the curry was fantastic too. We have tried hundreds of Indian restaurants and takeaways as itâs my favourite food, from york to Leeds to Bradford etc and everywhere in Batley but this is by far the best. Also a baby magnum to finish with for free! Just the perfect sweet needed! Will definitely be returning just wish Iâd found it earlier,Thank you!

Went to the red lion last night. Chosen because of the good reviews. Almost left as soon as we saw the dining area, it's dismal and dirty looking,but because of the reviews we stayed. The Thalia is not that big, big enough for me but I think a man would want more food, saying that it was delicious!! I told the chef so when leaving, but also mentioned the decor, he tells me it's due for a refurb at the end of July, so shall wait and see, shame if it's not as it could be lovely. I have only rated it with one star because of the state of the place, not because of the food! Cleaned and repainted and I would give it all 5 stars.Thanks for choosing us to try our wonderful Authentic Indian Cuisine.We really appreciate that you took your own time to choose us over anywhere you wanted to or could have visited.We are glad that you thoroughly enjoyed the food, as have many of our diners.Yes, you did mention to the Chef that your friend was upset about the decor.The Yorkshire Indian started as a kitchen takeover at The Red Lion and would never cook food or serve food in any dirty surroundings so we think it is unfair that you use the word.There is a plan for the pub to decorated the previously 'un-used' extension, but other than a spruce up, we have never had such an unfair appraisal by anyone.We believe your 1 star to unfair seeing as you did share that you came for the food and that you thoroughly enjoyed.I hope you give us another try and by then we will have painted the ceiling for you as thanks what you stated that your friend had an issue with.Many thanks.The Yorkshire Indian @ The Red Lion.

The restaurant is lovely , nicely decorated and clean. The service was good but the food was not great.my husband will only eat plain food and ordered scampi and chips. The waiter couldn't understand why he wanted scampi and tried to change his mind and even offered to cook him liver. When his scampi came we knew why ,my husband couldn't even chew some of it . It was tiny pieces and very overcooked and the chips were thin frozen fries. When he complained he was offered other food off the menu and liver again . His excuse for the food was ' we don't get asked for scampi and I don't know how to cook it '. Well please take it off the menu if you can't cook it .

Have you ever had that overwhelming urge for a decent curry and you can not get the thought out of your mind. It happened to me on Thursday . I could not be bothered travelling into Bradford as my recent experiences suggested there are not many establishments for reliable India cuisine. I decided to stay local and the Samarkand was my first choice.I was literally leaning on the door at 5:30pm which is their opening time, as the door was opened by the restaurant manager. I asked for a table for one, saddo maybe? but very hungry so who gives a fig.As I settled, a tray of Raita, Onion chilli chutney and tomato chilli sauce was brought to the table with two freshly cooked papadum.My order was taken, a mixed starter of a shami kabab and a lamb seekh kebab served with an onion, tomato and cucumber salad garnish.I requested a main meal of lamb madras and a plain nan, and a litre bottle of ice cold water. Sorted! Cutlery and a napkin were placed on the table for meI finished off the super crisp papadums with the chutney but left some of the Raita for the starter.The starter arrived and I devoured their hand made items and let me tell you they were delicious.The main meal followed promptly served in a hot stainless dish for serving to the warmed ceramic plate. This did not linger at all, as I knew exactly was to expect and it was woofed down in mere moments. Absolutely gorgeous. The tender meat quality cooked to fall apart perfection is the Samarkand's established bench mark standard. Every morcel was consistently good due to the quality of the meat and its preparation to ensure only the best gets into the meal. The nan bread was enormous and tandoori oven baked with the light toasted puffed up structure I like. Just perfect. The curry gravy was a full on spicy flavour of the type of heat that causes the hair on the back of the neck to tingle and a slight sweat to appear on the the brow. They absolutely nailed it. That is why I recommend the Samarkand.I do not apologise for give here my full description of the meal because some curry cafes just do not know how to deliver this quality of service and need some guidance.I paid the bill and thanked the chef with a hand shakeThat took just 55 minutes start to finish, to satisfy my craving. âº

Visited on Sunday teatime. Very quiet. Sunday's restaurant serves a buffet which was very nice with half dozen mains to choose from. The main menu looked extensive with a few dishes not seen in other restaurants so sure would be worth trying. Lots of vegetarian choices. Prices are very reasonable and you can bring your own alcohol. The decor could do with a bit of a spruce up but the staff are friendly laid back but welcoming.

We have lived in birstall for four and a half years and this is the first time visiting shama and it definitely wonât be the last! The staff were so friendly and welcoming the manager âuncle billyâ let my daughter choose a free dessert! The food was outstanding we had mixed stater for 2 which I would highly recommend I had chicken shashlick my husband had keema balti and my daughter had chicken tikka masala all were delicious and the nan bread was the best ever. We even got a fresh red rose each when we were leaving. Iâd rate this as the best Indian restaurant Iâve ever been to.
