nazma tandoori

Reviewed By 706kyrrea

Dropped in by an accident while l was looking for another place. A discrete entrance one floor upstairs and then a nice restaurant opens. Lot of awards and diploma in stairs tells that this is a place for good service.Very high quality on service from the start until the end of the meal. Every details was perfect and l felt truly welcomed. Best papadums ever with great relish. Ordered the tandoori mix plate with plain nan on the side. Ice cold Cobra beer was served at once. If you plan to eat Indian food please visit Nazma, l guarantee top score.Many and various courses in menu, everybody will find their favorite Indian meal.

Madame Mews Thai Cafe

Authentic Thai cuisine with a large choice of starters, main courses and cakes / biscuits.

Reviewed By KDTtree

In the Market in Aberdeen to try the Thai food, bit more expensive than the Swansea Market. However, no tables available, people waiting, generous portions, lovely smell, very colourful. Strip of seats where u could have waited, people finishing up and could have asked to share table. Instead went to international cafe with Hungarian chef. Lovely soup n egg roll.... Much needed. Cosy food/friendly people. Market lovely place for munch.

We found the restaurant through Trip Advisor as we don't know Aberdeen. The outside had us wondering as it didn't look too impressive and the inside is not classy but the food was super and very reasonably priced. I had a glass of Pinot Grigio which was also good. The staff were attentive and friendly and I have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant.

A group of 6 of us went for dinner on Friday night, we couldn't decide what to choose from the menu so we asked them to choose a selection of 12 dishes for us to share. The selection was fantastic and there was something for everyone. The lamb dishes were great and I really enjoyed the okra and Paneer dishes that were chosen. The naan & rice selections were great too. Those that has ice cream were very pleased with their selections! Especially the Butterscotch flavor. the service was good and overall a lovely relaxing evening.

I was looking for another Indian restaurant which I found shut and so went back to 8848 as I had passed it on my walk to the other place and was impressed with what I saw. Inside didn't disappoint. Service was from smiley attentive staff. I was on my own and opted only for poppadoms, a king size prawn dish and a garlic naan washed down with Kingfisher. The food was quite superb and exactly what you want of a proper Indian restaurant as opposed to a curry house. The mild sauce on the prawn dish was so tasty done in cream and spices, and the dish came with pilau rice, so that wasn't separate. Given what I've said about the quality it isn't the cheapest Indian restaurant, but in my opinion it was very much value for money.

Nurtaj Indian Restaurant

Low fat Indian cuisine.

Reviewed By Bowfer

Goodness knows where the positive reviews have come from, it must have had a change of management or something.The place is really run down, like they’ve given up.Filthy toilets (at 8pm) should have been a clue, I mean REALLY filthy....!Starters still cold in the middle, chicken with a funny texture (like not quite cooked enough).No Bombay Aloo on the menu, so they made us some and charged £7.95 for a side dish!The final kick was, when presented with the bill, we were told they couldn’t accept cards.Incompetence, just crazy.If this place is still running in a week I’ll be amazed, it has all the hallmarks of going down.Dear GuestThanks for leaving the review and apologize for such a bad experience . At Nurtaj we are committed to provide highest standard on our food but in your case it did not happened . A refund if £25 was agreed last night as a token of apology , Also I can assure you I will have team meeting with duty manager tonight to find out what's went wrong and come back to shortly once again thanks for the review .Thanks Managemet

Pleasantly surprised, We were let down by the Thai restaurant so reluctantly ordered from Wild Ginger. My partner is very fussy but she finished it all and wanted more. We had the garlic nan with curry which was very nice. Worth a visit.

Fantastic restaurant amazing food and staff that will go above and beyond. Can’t recommend this place enough. Hidden gem in Blackburn. Love the interior decor it is so relaxing and staff are attentive and knowledgable. Chicken pakora has a wonderful non spicy sauce that both my kids and husband loved. The chicken bhoona was to die for I had the mango chicken I was nervous about choosing something I didn’t know and I was blown away with how good it was. Chicken tikka and kids curry were both demolished. We all left with very full belly’s and working out the next time we could visit
