About Star Of Bengal

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the generous portions, especially the chicken dishes and huge starters, with several mentioning leftovers or being stuffed. The rogan josh, the chicken chat puree, the korma, and the red dip for the poppadoms come up by name, and naan and rice get a nod as well. Service draws steady praise, with staff described as quick, lovely and attentive, and the early bird deal is repeatedly called great value. Takeaway and collection customers mention complimentary poppadoms and a discount through the restaurant's own app. The complaints are fewer but specific: one long-time customer of about 20 years found a recent tikka masala terrible and hoped the recipe had not changed, and another found the korma and the naan rather sweet and said the atmosphere could be improved on a Friday night when they were the only diners. Regulars describe it as their usual Sunday night order or weekly takeaway, and the complimentary poppadoms that come with takeaway orders are a recurring touch.

“without a doubt the best indian in the city of bangor, service is always spectacular, complimentary popadoms with takeaway orders and the best rogan josh money can buy - if you haven’t tried it already, you have to and when you do, it will become your weekly takeaway!”
- Gillian Davidson
“We have been getting our food from here for about 20 years our food has always been delicious until last night we order tikka masala the taste was totally terrible , it was not as good. Hopefully they have not changed their recipe.”

“I personally enjoyed my experience, would come again. The starter was lovely, the korma was rather sweet though - as was the naan. The waitresses were first class. We went at on a Friday night and we were the only people there, atmosphere could be improved upon.”

“I don't know why we haven't ordered from the Star of Bengal before, After reading the reviews we thought we would give it a try. Absolutely delicious. Great portion size, perfectly cooked with plenty of chicken and amazing flavours. Nan bread and rice fab too. We will definitely order again and we will also dine in.”
