Quick info
About Castle Balti
On St Johns in Warwick, Castle Balti serves Bangladeshi and Indian dishes on a walk-in basis, with no reservations taken. It operates as a BYOB restaurant, so diners bring their own alcohol rather than order from a bar. Starters and poppadoms arrive in large portions, and the garlic naan is sized generously as well. Spice levels can run on the higher end for those who prefer heat. Tables come with a bottle of cold tap water, and a seating area is available for anyone waiting on a table or collecting a takeaway order. Parking near the restaurant is limited, so those driving should plan accordingly.

Customer Review Summary
Large portions are what reviewers raise most at Castle Balti, from starters so huge that one table took much of their main home to a garlic naan also described as huge. Curries are called delicious, authentic and packed with meat, flavour and herbs, and the spice level is described as on the higher end but well balanced. Service is repeatedly called friendly and very good, one reviewer says the chef was happy to cater to personal taste, and another notes a long loyal customer base. The complaints are specific. One diner found the Baigan Sabji and biryani too oily and a bit bland. Another asked for the chicken malaya not spicy, yet it was the hottest dish at the table, oily, and could not be finished. One reviewer reports stomach trouble three times after eating there and questions the hygiene. Others mention problematic parking and a speaker that crackled and hissed all evening. One diner recalls a bottle of cold tap water arriving at the table.

“I’ve ordered twice now from here, as my dad said it’s his fave and I trust his opinion highly. Definitely wasn’t disappointed. Delicious fresh, authentic Indian food with great portions and presentation. A lot of curries I’ve had lack texture and meat however these ones are packed with meat, flavour and herbs. Recommend!”
