The food is delicious and cooked very well, and I myself certainly love the Tandoori Chicken. My other family members who have attended in the past have also had a great experience here as well, and I certainly recommend Rumana's if you are looking for great food and nights out. The atmosphere is great and is very homely. If you are visiting Newcastle or live here, this is a restaurant you will want to be at!

I stumbled across the Raaj accidentally whilst travelling to a different Indian restaurant..... And…read moreI'm glad I did...... The food is excellent, very good quality, staff are really friendly and will happily give a dish a tweak to your liking. I heave been there on many occasions with colleagues from around the country, and taken customers and clients regularly.

Had a lovely experience at the Dabbawal where I felt like family. From the attentive waiters to the…read morewarm environment the overall experience was one of being nourished. I chose the Chef's choice and was not disappointed with the generous portions and selections made. There were things I might not have tried otherwise and was glad to have been offered. It's a great way to sample the menu at a great price. The drink menu was also fairly extensive and they had some fun gin pairings. Go, eat heartily, and enjoy.

We had booked a table for 6pm however arrived slightly late due to the bad weather (I believe Hurricane Kate is the culprit!) However, we were sat quickly and when telling our server we had limited time due to our cultural theatre trip it was recommended that we keep away from the signature curries as they take time to cook through. We started with a bottle of prosecco (this is getting predictable now?) and opted to share the bombay bombs and hara chicken parchey to start. The bombay bombs were delicious filled with mashed potatoes and a homemade sauce they were incredibly flavoured! The chicken arrived looked a cool shade of green with a yogurt dip it was also delicious. Next I opted for the burgh tikka makhani masala which was a butter based rich tomato curry with plenty of succulent chicken. With a side of mushroom pilau (one portion is enough for two really!) and a side of tandoori roti I mopped up every last bit of the rich sauce! Competing the meal was the standard cosmo which I ALWAYS get when I go here as it has a nice twist on the original. I must say the lamb railway curry is still my favourite however I am yet to try their signature Korma so watch this space!

Great entrees but so-so starters and no desserts…read more After travelling in England for a few days we were desperate for some spice and based on reviews and recommendations chose the Spice House. At first we were disappointed as both our starters - the lamb chops and veggie samosas - were average at best with both being rather dry and scrawny. But then the entrees arrived and the Spice House was redeemed. The lamb vindaloo was properly spiced and perfectly delicious. The sag paneer, cucumber raita, and royal tandoor were equally wonderful. Rice, pappadam and a couple of nan rounded out our meal and we went home very happy. The service was good and the decor was modern and clean if a bit uninspired. One caveat. Our children ordered ginger ales and we were served the smallest bottles I have ever seen - 125ml (4 oz) of warm soda each. I'm guessing they are only used as mixers. And the only desserts on offer were ice creams (i.e. no Indian desserts such as kheer or galab jamun).
