On Trip Advisor, this restaurant had over 230 ratings with a rating of 4.5/5. My wife and I had the Chicken Masala, a chicken curry dish, a cauliflower potato veggie, and a coconut and almond naan- Peshwari Naan. And it was all excellent. Give this restaurant a chance. They have friendly, great service with delicious food. It was a welcome change from the "typical" English food that we had eaten while in London.

A great Indian restaurant next to the cross roads in Bidford…read more The service is exceptional, with the staff members all being happy, friendly and polite. The food that they offer is amazing, and if there is anything that you want that they dont' have on the menu they can normally make it for you. As with the majority of places along the river front in Bidford it was affected by the floods of last year, meaning a complete refurbishment and this has definitely had a positive effect. The decor is modern and clean, the seats are comfortable and there is plenty of space so you do not feel like you are squeezed in. They also offer a take away service, and normally the time that they tell you to turn up to pick it up is spot on, meaning that you do not have to wait around for ages. At the entrance to the restaurant they have really comfortable sofas, either for people waiting to takeaway or people waiting to be seated, though these are normally free due to there being plenty of seating and the fact that the food is ready when they say it will be. This Indian is so good that my sister even used to make a 30 mile round trip just to get food from here. I cannot recommend it enough.

We've tried various curries and sides from here, including the korma, butter chicken, rogan, jalfrazi, biryani, veggie curry, sag aloo, and a few different naans. No complaints about any of the flavours with these curries! Their peshwari naan is packed with coconut and sultanas and goes really well with the more mild curries. They usually give us extra papadoms when we order them too. For takeaway, I'd recommend booking online if you want to eat early as they are often very busy at opening. We will continuing being regulars here!

A cold, wet, windy October night I was on the hunt of something warm, filling and tasty to eat…read more Enter stage left the Tale of Spice. And old pub converted into this fabulous Indian restaurant and takeaway. A full car park which is always a good sign, diners packed into the dining room noshing away at bowls of golden curry, fluffy rice and fresh crisp naan breads. There where four of us and we had booked because quite honestly you have to. I'd be very surprised if you got a table if you'd just walked in off the street. Again another very good sign. We where greeted by a friendly member of staff and shown to our table. Drinks orders where taken and poppadoms brought to the table. The pickles that accompanied the poppadoms where delicious. Not too sure if they where made in house or not I'm guessing not, but either way they tasted good. We did have starters and with quite an extensive collection there is a lot to choose from. I had the king prawn butterfly. A deliciously perfectly cooked king prawn fried in golden breadcrumbs and served with a small side salad. For the curry then, I had a lamb rogan josh. Quite a mild dish with only a little spice added. To accompany that I had a keema rice and a couple of chapattis. The rice dish is enough for two to share as the curry itself is quite filling. But it was a lovely accompaniment. Not too overpowering with the spiced meat and not too overloaded with onion they got the balance just right. The rogan josh was delightful. It's the first time I've had it and I was impressed. Delicately flavoured and packed with tomato and onion. The sauce was really tasty there just wasn't enough of it to dip the bread in. The meat itself was nice a little tough for my liking but still very nice. The chapattis where beautifully cooked, fresh and hot strait out of the tandoor they where perfect. Not too small you think what's the point. And not too bit you think what am I going to do with this? The meal was finished off nicely with complimentary liquors. We decided not to go for dessert because we'd had such a good meal there was no more room. The service in this restaurant is very good. The staff are friendly, polite and helpful. They are only to happy to recommend a dish to you especially if you a first time curry eater. The restaurant itself is very contemporary, spacious and inviting. I'd highly recommend this place to any curry lover or someone who wants to go to a curry house for the first time. I shall definitely be going back in the not to distant future.

I let Jane and Oli do most of the ordering, since they are regulars and not everything translates into American English and English English the same way. We started with papadum and relish tray, and a couple of Kingfishers (on draft). For the table we ordered pillau rice, naan (2 kinds, but can't remember which 2), and saag paneer. I chose the Hozor Ki Pasandwalla Murghi because I wanted to try to pronounce it, and it's one of Oli's favorites. It's thinner sauce with nice heat and a good amount of peppers, onions, and tomatoes. He chose the Chicken Laknavi, and Jane chose the Chicken Pasanda. Everything was nicely spiced - heat but still flavor. Portions were generous - we probably only needed half as much, but we couldn't resist all the flavors. We were treated to a drink afterwards with our bill, and Bailey's was a perfect digestif with the chocolate. On our way out, we were given a 2019 calendar as a holiday present. I'm looking forward to another delicious and friendly meal when I'm back in Oxford!
