Customer Review Summary

Diners most often return for the curries, praising their flavour and decent portions, and several call it the best Indian food they have eaten. One reviewer describes a madras that was full of flavour rather than just spicy, and another enjoyed a tikka masala. Others single out tandoori fish and paneer masala. A group celebrating a retirement ordered four curries of varying heat, and praised the pickle tray, the lemon rice, and naan that was soft and fluffy. Reviewers also mention a wide menu that caters for everyone and good value for money. Service draws steady praise, with staff called friendly, attentive, and accommodating, and one waiter described as knowledgeable about the menu and great with children. Birthday and retirement celebrations are described as made special, and one couple enjoyed chatting with staff about Scottish and Leeds cuisine. One reviewer recalls that when other customers argued over a naan bread late in the evening, the staff handled it calmly and professionally.

    “Came here for my partners birthday. We were greeted by friendly staff members ( Dee and Abdul) who made the occasion extra special. The food itself was really tasty and the portions were of a decent size. There’s a wide range of options on the menu so caters for everyone. We look forward to return to try some other dishes.”

    “Went for dinner with my wife. Service was great - staff were very friendly and happy to talk to us about the differences between Scottish (where we're from) and Leeds cuisine. Food was very nice - had a tasty madras (it can be spicy with not much flavour, but this was really good), and my wife enjoyed her tikka masala. Good value for money overall, but it is generally a cash only business, so come prepared - they let us pay by transfer as it was our first time. Was made aware it's BYOB, in case you want a beer or glass of wine with dinner. Would go back if we had the chance.”

    “We recently visited the Bengal Lounge in Cross Gates, and I can honestly say the whole experience was fantastic from start to finish. The food was absolutely beautiful – full of flavour, freshly prepared, and thoroughly enjoyed by everyone at our table. The service was spectacular and very professional throughout the evening. A special mention goes to Dee, our waiter, who was polite, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. He knew the menu well, made excellent recommendations, and helped make our dining experience even better. We'd also like to thank Abdul and Sid, who were equally professional, attentive, and welcoming. Towards the end of the evening, there was a difficult situation involving some customers who were arguing over a naan bread. Despite the circumstances, the staff handled the situation calmly and professionally, which was impressive to see. Overall, the service, atmosphere, and food were outstanding. We had a wonderful evening and are already looking forward to returning at the end of the month. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
