10. Little India Curry House

Noticed the Little India a few times when driving by, seemed an odd place to find an Indian restaurant but decided to take a chance and visited Friday evening for a meal. The decor inside is modern and quite nice, it was not very busy when we arrived but the greeting was good. The menu is extensive with all the usual dishes but I was pleased to find that they also do some fish dishes, most Indian restaurants only do prawn dishes, so a very good start to our first visit. We declined the poppadoms and pickle and went straight to starters, I chose Fish Biran and my partner had a Mixed Platter, both arrived very quickly. I must say mine was delicious, my partner said his was ok, when we finished the dishes were cleared very quickly and the main courses arrived straightaway. I had Sea Bass Dhoom Sumander with plain rice and my partner ordered Chicken Rogan Josh with pilau rice although he received Lamb Rogan Josh...there was a lot of sauce on my sea bass which was very nice and the lamb in the rogan josh was really tender in a tasty sauce. We had two side dishes, onion bhajee and bombay aloo, both were lovely and my partner had the best Nan heâs ever tasted.We had really nice food and very good service, plus the prices are very reasonable; however, it felt rushed as we would have enjoyed a longer break between courses. To sum up: we would certainly recommend Little India and will be back very soon.

Small Cafe doubling up as a breakfast Cafe and a Thai Cafe/Restaurant. All food is cooked to order and although the cafe is small we offer authentic Thai food and all starters are homemade.

This was our first visit. The decor and furnishings are contemporary and welcoming, the lighting also. Despite coming in after a large party (perhaps 40+ people?) we were seated and served with little delay. For mains we had Tandoori Salmon and Chicken Madras respectively. Both were good. Recommend you try the Peshwari Nan,as we did. We had an interesting chat with the waiter, once things had settled down later on.Will definitely return.Dear Guest,Thank you for choosing our restaurant Gurkha Lounge Hampton, and for taking the time to write a review!
