With a minutes walk the furthest away you would have to walk. This place is lovely and my favourite Indian food in Newcastle/the coast that I have found so far. The food is very tasty and seems very clean. Prices are standard as to what you pay anywhere a selection of beers ,wines and spirits. The staff are very friendly and nice. They do takeaway which is good as takdir is a restaurant first and then a takeaway so its standard s are a lot higher than a just a take away. They have won awards for there food and it is highly recommend you go and try it. I got chatting to one of the lads there and he said Steven Taylor from Newcastle united football club gets in there which he did seem genuine about and Taylor does come from just up the road.

The restaurants decor is a bit more modern than some but still has the lovely Indian restaurant atmosphere we all love. Nothing is too much trouble for the friendly staff and they don't try and rush you to finish you meal. THE FOOD is delicious and the choice is vast, they also have 3 course specials available every night of the week ( starter, curry, rice or chips & ice cream or coffee ) starting from just under £6 and you don't get short measures just because its a special. I've tried the others but to be honest they don't "kurma" close !

I haven't got anything delivered before so can't comment on that side of things however, the people are friendly when you pick your order up. Fair prices for quality food.

Would just like to add that over the years, I have been in a party of six, with partners, cousin, father, friends etc. and about the only thing I haven't done is gone alone! (note to self.must try this). In these times of tight budgets, the specials here have to be seen to be believed! 3 courses from the specials menu (Friday night, Saturday night, etc. ) for about £6.95 including a free half or glass of wine! Excellent staff even though the head guy never recognised me at first after losing 6 stone (I joked I lost it by keeping away from his restaurant for a year!) so efficient yet friendly and always on hand to advise or recommend etc. I can't understand why so few reviews for The Royal as whenever I go, there are people from all over the northeast travelling in excess of 20 miles in some cases. One day I'll spend a day on Ocean Road lunching at Colmans and having dinner at The Royal. Just need a top-notch breakfast place in the vicinity and we're good to go!!
