Jodhpur

I was curious how an Indian restaurant could get such high ratings—4.9 out of 5 from hundreds of reviews—so I came all the way from Sheffield to try it. Now I understand why! Service: We received great service from the staff and manager. The manager and the staff took the time to understand our spice preferences and adjusted our curries perfectly, while also making excellent recommendations. Food: This was the best grilled chicken and lamb (tandoori) I've ever had at an Indian restaurant. The chicken breast was succulent, and the lamb was incredibly tender and high-quality. Cleanliness: The restaurant and toilets were spotless, a solid 5/5. The restaurant deco is also nice and made us feel at ease and comfortable.

We booked a table for late Saturday afternoon although on arrival the restaurant was empty. We were shown to a table but not offered any drinks but given a small lunchtime menu and asked what food we would like to order. Nothing on there appealed so we asked if they had a main menu, he said that they did and went and got it. Came back to take the food order again at which point I asked if there was any chance of a drink, not a good start, we didn't get offered another drink, not even when they removed our empty glasses half way through. Poppadoms and pickle tray was decent but lacked variation and quantity. Lamb chop starter (3 chops) was good. Chicken royal biryani was just acceptable. Garlic naan bread was decent. Chicken chettinad ordered medium to hot came mild and small quantity of chicken, there was no coconut or black pepper coming through in the flavour, but the big issue was when I bit down on that piece of chicken thigh cartilage, I feel nauseous now just writing about it, for which eventually they did apologise, I had to ask them to remove the dish from the table. Things finally took a turn for the better towards the end when a young lady member of staff turned up who was most professional in her work and really was a breath of fresh air.

Great food. Good prices. Very professional and polite service! Especially lunch menu is great value! Highly recommend.

Wow! While working in Harrogate, we decided to visit this restaurant after seeing its excellent reviews, and it did not disappoint. The staff were warm and welcoming, and the food was absolutely outstanding, quite possibly the best Indian cuisine we’ve ever had. The prices were extremely reasonable too. Overall, it was an exceptional experience, and we would highly recommend it. I even suggested my colleagues try it the next day, but when they arrived, it was closed despite Google showing opening hours until 10 p.m. So my only criticism is that the opening times need updating. Otherwise, a solid five stars!

10/10 across the board. Service is friendly, non intrusive but very vigilant. The food is out of this world! This is now the gold standard for curry restaurants in Harrogate. Atmosphere is excellent, refined yet friendly, professional but not pretentious. 4th time visiting and its still amazing! Well done all at Jodhpur: Harrogate!
