Stayed overnight in the area. Searched on trip advisor and found this place. We were greeted by a very welcoming man. The food was absolutely amazing, best Bombay Aloo I've ever tasted. If ever in the area again we'll definitely be going back. Staff were very pleasant. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone in the area. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Takaa tak has got their flavours a bit confused and in my opinion, are catering to their non-asian customers who may liken a jar of Pataks curry sauce to the real deal.As a family of 4, we ordered a mixed grill for 2, along with chicken lollipops, paneer tikka and chilli mogo for appetisers. The mogo was completely drenched in a chilli and garlic sauce which takes away from the texture and slight crunch it should really have if fried first - believe me mogo is my thing. The mixed grill was decent but the paneer tikka was bland and tasteless. The chicken lollipops were the saving grace (taste wise) however lacked finesse and there was not enough meat on the wings to call them a lollipop. The mains of Jeera chicken, Karahi chicken, mutton curry and Amritsari Chole (chick peas) also came with some problems. As per other reviews the mutton curry was good and the mutton was perfectly tender, however the masala/curry sauce was overpowered by the taste of curry leaves. The chick pea curry was a great veggie option to accompany the meat and had great depth. However that's where the compliments end.. the karahi chicken had more peppers than chicken in the dish and was extremely average.The Jeera chicken however was a complete joke. In no way ever is this dish cooked in a tomato based curry sauce. Take my advice and do not order this, it is not cooked with fresh cumin and lashings of oil which in turn make up this unique dish's sauce, instead its a tomato paste laced with cumin powder. The ras malai for dessert was a safe option and was nice enough. However a major downfall with the restaurant was the service. It was extremely slow and lackluster, and on 2 occasions we had to ask where the food was when 4 tables that came after us had eaten and left before us. We also had to ask for the appetiser plates to be removed, for more cutlery and remind them about drinks twice. At the end of the meal when paying the bill, no attempt or apology was offered by the waitress or manager, only when we prompted this and made suggestions for improvement did they apologise. As a punjabi indian who can cook extremely well and has travelled widely, it is sometimes difficult to critique indian restaurants. Whilst most achieve and even raise the bar, Takaa tak has some way to go. Hi,Thank you so much for sharing your valuable feedback. It will certainly help us to improve our food quality and service.Re service, can you please kindly email us your visit date and time at [email protected], we will get back to you as soon as possible.Regards

Visited here on a luch time. We had the Carvery. It was very disappointing, meal was not very warm at all. Yorkshire pudding inedible. Roast parsnips not cooked. Roast potatoes dry. Mash and green beans were good. The drinks are pricey so this made it an expensive lunch. Will not visit again.Dear SirWe are sadden to hear our standards have dropped on this occasion, and are extremely apologetic for this.If you were able to let us know what day and time you and joined us for carvery, that would really help us look into this matter further and help to rectify these issues form occurring again.Kind regards.Management

Amazing restaurant, amazing food, amazing service. One of the best Indian restaurants I have been to. Itâs not an easy place to spot, Iâve walked past this place many times without realising it was there. Itâs upstairs and I did wonder what I was going to to be honest. Once you open the entrance door at the top of the stairs, it feels like you are in a different world. You are welcomed from the moment you walk through the door to the second you leave. Nothing is to much trouble for the waiters, so chatty and helpful. Then the food, absolutely fantastic. I give this place 20/10. I canât wait to go back. I have many more dishes to try......Thank you very much for the wonderful review. We are really glad that you enjoyed your experience here with us. Really like the 20/10 comment. Hope to see you soon.

Small family visit to my sister's local Indian to mark her birthday. I haven't been to an Indian for years, and haven't had one this good for decades. I really couldn't find fault with anything. I live in a town far away with no decent restaurants - I think I'll need to step up the frequency of visits to my sister so I can experience Little Bangla more often.We had a range of starters and mains and I tried a little of everyone's - the main test was passed - I could taste every ingredient in perfect proportion. Portions were good, service was first-rate (they felt like family!) and the atmosphere good. Bring your own booze, they'll happily serve it for you. There's a decent-sized car park just over the road, so that's no problem either.Wow Itâs a beautiful compliments. Thank you so much, Honestly your rating and review is make us proud and give is more inspiration to provide wonderful food and hospitality to our guests. Thank you so much once again for visiting us ans take time to make a wonderful compliments

Reviewed By julz20171
My husband and I have been dining at Undaal for a very long time and our experience at Undaal has always been positive.Until recently I have noticed that the restaurant isnât busy during Friday and Saturday evenings, the staff and also a lot of the customers have been reduced, after finding out that the restaurant has been given a 1 STAR RATING for food hygiene I am absolutely shocked at how a restaurant went from a 3 star to a 1 star. The front of the restaurant and toilet is having renovation done however itâs a shame itâs been several months since the 1 star rating and nothing has been done to improve the restaurants food and hygiene rating which exceptionally matters the most.A message for the manager please STOP showing my husband and our friends the inside of your kitchen and how clean it is, until the food hygiene rating has changed we will not be dining at Undaal. Thank you for the time you have taken out to write this review, your views and comments are always appreciated.Firstly I would like to point out that the restaurant was given a 2-star rating, not 1, we have the stickers to proof this. The only reason we were given this rating was due to the fact that renovations were being carried out at the time of the visit. Things were a little untidy as you can understand but health and hygiene levels were maintained at all times.As you can see kitchen renovation is now complete and we are also working on toilets and rendering the building, all in time for the next health visitIn the meantime, if you can be a little patience it will be greatly appreciated
