After reading some of the reviews below, and liking Indian food as much as I do, I decided to try…read morethem out. Nicely furnished waiting room. Architecturally interesting, and there is a nice flat screen tv and magazines for those who are waiting. When I say that this place is good, what I mean to say is that this place is amazing! Purely amazing food. I ordered the chicken tikka, the lamb korai, and peshwari naan (thanks J.B. for her review!). I agree with J.B., the chicken tikka was especially spicy, but it was cooked perfectly. The chicken pieces were bite-size and tender. The lamb was a little less spicy than the chicken, and it was quite tender and flavorful. The meal came with a pint of rice and a garden salad with ranch dressing. That being said, it is enough to feed two or three for dinner. Quite a generous serving, indeed I have leftovers for tomorrow. Read if you have a swipe-version credit card: Unlike J.B., I did have a problem--a customer service problem that arguably may or may not be their fault. I, being an American, have a Visa card with which I attempted to pay. It's an American Visa card, which means that it is a swipe card--sure, that's pretty standard. But in the UK, the credit cards use a different technology (called chip and pin). This place would not accept my card! Let me say it again, they wouldn't accept my Visa Card, accepted anywhere, right!!!! Wrong, they swiped the card, and then they said that they didn't accept American cards. I felt somewhat intrigued and insulted, especially when I saw an old fashion credit card reading machine behind the counter (the mechanical type, where you have to use carbon paper). I still wanted my food, so I found a cash machine (that was just down the block). Though I'm pretty sure what they did was in error and that Visa Corporation would probably have something to say about it, I advice Americans and Canadians: have CASH handy. (Alternatively, you could give this place trouble for not accepting your card! If enough business is lost over it, maybe they might change this policy!) In any case, the food is very extremely good. The only reason this place lost a star was because of their credit card incompatibility issue. I will definitely order from this place again if I want some tasty Indian food.

I kept hearing that this is the best Indian takeaway in all of Newcastle and possibly the North…read moreEast, so last night we gave them a try. Oh my! The food was to die for, or maybe to at least sacrifice a first born for! Our chicken tikka starter was super spicy and incredibly tasty. The Lamb Korai and Chicken Balti we shared were both unbelievably good. Definitely on the hotter side but that's just fine by me. The peshwari naans were really moist and thick and full of goodness. I do not have a single complaint about the food, and I think that Brighton Grove ranks up with the best Indian resturants in Newcastle full-stop, not just against other takeaways. Definitely can't wait to try them again!!

There was a bowl of Bombay mix on the counter to help yourself to, but the interior is a bit shabby and the seating was straight out of a bar; I'd recognise that thin red plush anywhere! Newspapers were provided for reading whilst you waited and there was a tv on the wall showing a foreign news channel; great if English is your second language, but not much use to the rest of us... The menu was extensive and offered many dishes; some seemed a bit odd, like duck curry...not sure if this was some sort of 'fusion food' attempt or just something that the chef thought he should offer just in case anyone asked for it. We ordered lamb rogan Josh and chicken tikka masala with chips and rice respectively and a peshwari nan. The prices were average for the area, with mains around the £8.50 mark. The food was not the hottest by any means, surprising really considering we live 6 mins away. Despite this, the food was tasty and the meat tender. One of the nicest Indian takeaways we've had, but nothing that lifts it above any other decent Indian meal in order for me to rate it as great. I would definitely visit again as it's no mean feat to find somewhere that serves decent tasty Indian food. But minus one star for the temperature of the food I'm afraid.
