Called in after passing many times and was not disappointed. Very well decorated, good attentive staff and excellent menu. Food was excellent, both had starters and mains Restaurant doesn't have a license so it's bring your own alcohol if you want, staff happy to open it for you and provide glasses. Doesn't appear to need a booking as we walked in and got seated but there were lots eating and the place is busy. All in all superb experience and will definitely call againn.
Ordered online and it was the worst takeaway ive ever had in my life. EVERYTHING was cold. I ordered a creamy chicken masala and it was like water. My partner had a madras that was more grease than curry. The popadoms were so stale it was like it had been left out to go soft for afew days. The chicken pakoras smelt like fish and the chips were hard cold things. Best thing about it was the rice. Don’t know if this is just a takeaway problem as i can see good reviews for dine in but I honestly wouldn’t feed this food to my dog
This time last year i dined at Yusufs Spice lounge with my wife and the food was excellent! but this time we ordered the food as a takeaway called up food was made on time, collected it and drove back to bradford, once we got home the food was still hot well prepared and ready to be eaten, you could tell alot of passion went in to the food so thank you for the delicious meal and for continuously putting passion in to cooking. We ordered the poppadoms lamb chops PT, garlic naan chips and Asian style butter chicken and asian style creamy garlic chicken masala. The 2 meals was perfectly spiced, creamy and absolutely delicious thank you for making it an excellent meal. Each dish was prepared with authentic flavours — the Creamy garlic chicken masala stood out with its rich creamy garlic aroma but at the same time giving a nice kick, i could also say same for the butter chicken both the dishes was a great combination to eat with we loved it sooo much. Again meals were creamy cooked to perfection, offering a comforting taste of traditional Indian cooking. The service was polite and attentive, ensuring a smooth dining experience. The restaurant itself had a warm, welcoming ambience, making it a great spot to enjoy hearty Indian food. A must-visit for anyone craving authentic Indian dishes.
Great food and service. Lamb bhuna, balti and kharai are awesome, cooked just the way they should be - tender meat, really tastey, no runny sauce. Lamb chops, bhaji, tikka, chaat etc all great starters. Handi on the bone mains also really authentic. Excellent value, and BYOB. Really friendly. Regular for nearly 3 years now, never a bad meal, and been 3 and 4 times in a week on odd occasions too!
Absolutely delicious curries. So well cooked & each curry has its unique flavour. The staff are wonderful & really friendly but not over-bearing. The place has been done out really tastefully & the restaurant is spacious, clean & well presented. It's take your own booze which keeps cost low. Perfect x
