About Mo's
Mo's is an Indian restaurant on Station Approach in Penarth, set opposite the town's train station. The kitchen is open to view, so diners can watch dishes being prepared as they cook. The menu runs to four dishes, including Chicken Bhuna and Dhansak alongside a Chicken BhunaDhansak combination, with Mint and Mustard also on offer. Guests are welcome to bring their own beer or wine, as the restaurant operates on a BYOB basis. It opens daily but for evenings only, and seating works on a walk-in basis rather than by reservation. Friday nights tend to draw a busy crowd. The restaurant sits within walking distance of the station, making it a straightforward stop for anyone arriving by rail.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers repeatedly highlight the king prawn jalfrezi and curry packed with flavour, alongside fresh, hot naan, with several praising the BYOB option as good value and one noting the chance to watch food cooked in front of them. One reviewer, however, found it overpriced, paying 93.3 for two courses each across three people. Another suggests booking ahead since it gets busy on Fridays.

“The best food and best service we have experienced! To also watch your food being cooked in front of you just adds to the experience. Cannot recommend enough”
- Christopher Camilleri
“Fantastic food, generous portions, and really friendly service. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and the staff made us feel looked after from the moment we arrived. The curry was packed with flavour, the naan was fresh and perfectly cooked, and everything came out hot and quickly. The BYOB option is a great bonus and makes for excellent value. Easily one of the best Indian restaurants in Cardiff — we'll definitely be back.”

“Best Indian take away I’ve ever had! Full of flavour, not full of oil. Chicken cooked to perfection! King prawn jalfrezi was out of this world! Lots of chicken and lots of prawn in the dishes. Very hard to find a decent Indian restaurant …”

“Nice Bangladeshi restaurant opposite Penarth train station. There is a large car park outside. Food and service was fine. The restaurant was very busy on a Friday night so I recommend booking in advance”
