Eye of the Tiger is located in a part of town popular with hen and stag nights and is surrounded by big loud bars. You would almost expect an Indian restaurant to survive mainly on drunk after-pub curry craves. Fortunately, the place was heaving even at 8 and we had one of the best curries. I wish I could get their chili garlic chicken in London - just divine.

To top it off, the cheesecake dessert was out of this world - creamy, indulgent, and the perfect way to finish the meal. The service was just as impressive as the food: warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly, making the whole evening even more enjoyable. There is a seating lovely area for a party of 12 and a back garden area that has seating too (we were cosy in the front dining area). If you're in Christchurch and love great food, Masala Bay is a must-visit. I'll definitely be coming back!

Lots of meat and the sauces were exquisite. The rices and breads were also excellent. The greeting on entering the restaurant was first rate with three people there to greet and two behind the counter. Though we didnt eat in the restaurant it looked very clean and the conversations at the tables were muted by the soft surface in the room. As one of our party is in a wheelchair they commented that they were equipped for guests with disabilities as a number of their regular guests were in this category. Overall my impression of the restaurant make me want to return to enjoy their offerings.

This place is my go to restaurant when I fancy a ruby in Weymouth…read more The food is excellent and any particular requests are never a problem. They have Cobra on tap and Kingfisher in bottles. The meal we had on the weekend was up to their normal excellent standards. The ambiance of the restaurant is pleasant with soft lighting all round and a beautiful tropical fish tank to complete the look. The Balti House is extremely popular, especially on the weekends, so if you are thinking of going the best advice as ever is to book in advance. A call in the day is normally fine but don't be surprised if their is a lengthy wait if you turn up off the cuff.

The best deal for a 'curry' in Christchurch Borough is the 'Monday and Tuesday Tasters for Two for under a tenner'. Plenty of food.

Prices were excellent which made me wonder because all the other similar restaurants nearby were about 30% more in price!!
