I don't know what it is about the water or the atmosphere in Littlehampton but we again lucked out…read moreat this place. So normally I dislike eating out at Indian/ Pakistani/ Bangladeshi places cause I cook that food at home. But it was 9pm and we were hungry and it was the only place open. So the three of us went in with little to no expectations, it was just a fueling stop but boy were we in for a pleasant surprise! Just when I though the best fish I had ever had was at the Fish Factory, this place was equally good, esp for a curry palate. I saw a starter called Magic Mushrooms and all three of us as US expats started giggling like crazy and had to order those! They were excellent and succulent and def whetted our appetite for the mains (munchies, anyone? ) We also got a plate of bhajiya and tandoori chicken for starters and these two options were also finger smacking good. Two of us again got a Bengali fish, seared to perfection and on top of a bed of onions that was absolutely delish. The third person got chicken that he demolished very quickly and I didn't even get to taste! I also opted to get dessert, a wonderful honey ice-cream that came in a cute ceramic pot which I took home. So if ever back in Littlehampton, this is another place I would def go back to. The service was exceptional, friendly and prompt, and the food was fabulous.

Only had take away from here but I must say it is the most reasonable and outstanding Indian…read morerestaurant in the littlehampton and had beaten my previous favourite which was masala lounge. I can highly recommend there butter chicken and chicken tikka cheese naan

The location is rather nice, overlooking Southsea Marina with plenty of parking nearby…read more The food was very good, with most of the dishes excellent: the chicken tikka starter for example was very tasty and the chicken was tasty and moist. The main dishes were similarly flavourful and complex. The only fly in the ointment was the service. It took ages to get our order taken despite the fact that there were three members of staff stood chatting by the bar. Later when we wanted our empty plates collecting and order some sweet nobody was around at all. When eventually one member of staff did arrive there were many tables that all wanted servicing creating unacceptable delays. Overall it should have been a 4/5 star review, but the poor service has dragged it down, but the food was so good I'm going to be generous and still give it 4*. Recommended, just don't be in a hurry.

I'm really surprised to see so few reviews for this excellent Indian restaurant. I guess one factor…read moreis it's location is rather out of the way, and unless you have been recommended it you are unlikely to find it by accident. That said a taxi to The Bombay Bay shouldn't be hugely expensive (and it's worth getting there) or you can take a short walk along the seafront, or from the nearest bus stop. The Bombay Bay has it's own website and as you can see from the menu online the prices are excellent value for the quality of the food. The pictures are representative of just how nicely the meals are presented. I was surprised by the generously sized portions and very pleased as all the dishes I have tried have been delicious. The restaurant is very clean with a nice atmosphere and well placed tables and for those who smoke, and those who want to enjoy the view and a spot of fresh air there is also a balcony which is a nice bonus.

I have heard a few people describe this place as the best Indian restaurant in Brighton. Whilst I…read moredon't think I've eaten in enough to warrant corroborating that statement, I can say I ate here recently and it was pretty damn good! What I particularly like about Shahi Tandoori is that it is split into two quite separate spaces, one side is the restaurant and one is the takeaway. This is genius! There's nothing more annoying than people wandering through while you're eating to pick up their order, letting a draft in and spoiling the ambiance of the restaurant. Well Shahi has it covered. Food-wise, the side dishes are all great...I particularly like the Bombay Aloo, the Sag Paneer and the Onion Bhajis- delicious! I can also recommend the Vegetable Balti and Chicken Tikka Masala. Since this place is just around the corner, we often pop down to pick up a few side dishes to go with a home-cooked curry and they never look at us funny, despite our paltry order! I like them.

You can never have enough good quality Indian restaurants (so says I), without doubt Shahi Tandoori…read moredeserves to be added to that category. It's located in an odd place at the bottom of Ditchling Rise, because of the location you might never have come this way, I really would recommend it though. 'Shahi' is a little bit cheaper then the more central Indian restaurants (and take aways, they do both). The food is also of a very good quality; I had the rogan josh and passanda, both of which I could eat 7 days a week. The area isn't the nicest, the decor is a little dated, but it's a fantastic place filled with Indian charm (and food).
