Definitely my favourite Indian restaurant in Bristol, we keep coming back and would definitely recommend it. What's really nice is that if you order and collect your takeaway they take 10% of the bill off and if you choose to wait there they'll give you a free drink. Can't recommend them enough!

They had a scent diffusion stick which was well overpowering for myself. I couldn't have sat on there and eaten, was only waiting for 10 mins and it have me a headache. The staff were really friendly which is good. I am willing to give it a proper go with main meal etc but for now I will stick to my favourite indian.

I want to start by saying just how much I love this restaurant, I have been here on two occasssions…read morenow as after my first visit I just couldn't wait to come back and try something else on their menu! Tamarind is a fine Indian cuisine restaurant, and is much more exquisite than your standard Indian. They offer a really attractive variety of interesting dishes and specials, as well as your usual curries like Korma, Tikka, Vindaloo etc... this really appeals to me, but you will find that it is very difficult making a final decision on what you want to eat as everything sounds so good. The smells from the kitchen are amazing as you're sitting there, so get popadums to start for something to pick at whilst your waiting. The interior of the restaurant is lovely, with white wooden terrace type designs giving the place a quaint feel. There is a good amount of seating, but in my experience it was very busy on a Friday night so perhaps book ahead if you want to guarantee a table. Price wise this place is also great as their meals are very reasonable, on par with most other Indian's in the area. I would definitely recommend this restaurant, it's a bit more classy than most Indians so it would be great for a special occasion meal as well as general family meals or evenings out with friends. If you are a fan of Indian food like me you will love Tamarind.

This place is definitely up there with my favourite curry houses!…read more We have had a few takeaways from here recently and they have all been delicious. I always go for a chicken korma and my partner has something different each time. Last night he went for a chicken tikka rezala which he said is now one of his favourite curries. The last time we ate from here we found that one rice wasn't enough for both of us so this time we ordered two. All our food was lovely, definitely no complaints. The decor is modern with a nice traditional feel and the staff are all really friendly and accommodating. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area or fancy a change from your usual Indian restaurant.

Shadins has been around for what feels like an eternity. Or to be more precise 19 years. I was…read morelucky enough to be brought here as a teenager by my parents not long after they opened. And I have returned many many times. They are very friendly and they will litterally bend over backwards to accommodate you. They will even cook you a curry thats not on the menu providing they're aware of it. Seriously my favourite Chicken Tika sag pathia is the bomb ! If you like it spicy and sweet with plenty of sag goodness. The decors ok as small curry houses go , the service is second to none and they are BYO booze so no nasty large bills at the end. And in my opinion they are without doubt the best curry house in Bristol. Its deffinately the best I have ever had and trust me ive had more than a few ! If you haven't tried it try it !!!! Oh and the poppadoms and pickles are to delicious. Proper nice homemade lime pickle... I think I may just go back again tonight !!

We are in the area on holiday and were inspired by other reviews to visit the Shadin to order a…read moretakeaway. Firstly, we were made most welcome by one of the two owners. The food was ready in about 20 minutes (very good considering that we are a party of 10). Just as we were about to leave the owner came out and asked us to wait for a couple of minutes as they thought that it was possible (but unlikely) that an item had been omitted from our order because they were cooking two large orders. An extra bag was produced which included the item in question and a pile of poppadoms and a selection of chutneys! Needless to say, the "missing" item had been included anyway but such an approach demonstrates exceptional service. The quality of the food was superb, the portions were substantial and the service was second to none. What's more, these are among the nicest people you could ever wish to meet. I wish it was my local Indian restaurant!

Solid little Indian restaurant and take away at the very end of Staple Hill - almost at Page Park…read more They do all the usual dishes with some unusual speciallities (Tiger by the River is very nice), the quality is consistent and service always polite and friendly. We use this for take away and occasionally as a restaurant - you can call and pick it up in 20 minutes. It gets pretty busy at the weekends as it is a local's favourite and has a lively atmosphere. Prices are very good, £6-8 for a main course and they aren't stingy with the portions. There are a couple of Indian restaurants here quite close together - make sure you get the right one!

Oh me oh my! I hoped…read moreto pop in on the official day of opening, but I couldn't so headed in the other day and it was brilliant. It gives off an impression that each dish has been cooked with such care and consideration, and it felt like they were cooking for you, and only you, a brilliant personal touch. Because it has just opened the reputation still needs to build and I think they need to make the whole place feel a bit more like a resteraunt, sort of a bit bland at the moment, but I think if they carry on how they have started out then the people of fishponds will have a new favourite indian resteraunt!

Due to my once favourite restaurant, Bhujon, loosing its classic traditional touch that I loved in…read morefavour for plastic (which I really hope they'll reconsider!), I decided to venture out and try this new restaurant. I went with two Indian friends, and being English myself, they did have their work cut out perhaps. So we liked the ambiance, you could forget that Fishponds high street and all its chaos was right outside which was good. However, the waiter literally had to be probed within an inch of his life just to get a basic opinion of what he recommended. (I know, I know, I'm lamenting on the beautiful charm of the staff in Bhujon) The basic starters were good, mixed kebabs with salad. Always a winner. The waiter was rushed and abrasive when he served the meat, so there were glances going around the table by this point. Unfortunately the main courses, Bengal lamb and sylet chicken were odd, and bland. My friend was hesitant at giving her opinion and did not want to be rude, but when later she spilt some of the curry sauce on her purse, her response of "Now my purse will smell of that awful curry", pretty much summed it up! It has potential, but every restaurant needs to make you feel welcome, or you'd just order takeout. Not sure if I'd give it another go. Perhaps I shall just look back fondly at how perfect Bhujon once had it.

The food is first class its one of the best Indian restaurants I have eaten in and their prices are really cheap for what you get. The delivery service is usually 30mins but its often far faster than that and food is well packed and hot on arrival. Have been going there for a few years now, and everyone says how good it is - the waiter is very friendly, as is the owner, and often come to the table to make sure all is ok. It's advisable to book a table as it gets very busy, and if you arrive before your table is ready you can go in the local pub while you wait, and the waiter will often come and get you when its ready! We always feel like part of the family when dining there - its perfect.

HI I'm new on this site and find is very useful ,so I…read morethought it only fare to share my thoughts on my favourite Indian; I could call it my local but I have to pass lots of others to get there, it is worth the trip. Shadin is a small restaurant that does not sell alcohol, but if you wish you can take your own wine and beer. (as I often do,,,no corkage no problem) The food is excellent and great value for money. I always feel welcome and well looked after. As they are small it can be difficult to get a table so I advise booking, especially at weekends. They are also a take away but you don't get to experience the friendly atmosphere, great presentation. Well worth a visit.

Radhuni is an Indian Takeaway located in Fishponds, Bristol. They offer a free delivery service if…read moreyour order is over £12 which usually takes around 45minutes to arrive. You can also collect your order within about 25minutes. The food here is delicious. Every dish tastes freshly cooked and the staff serve with a smile. The takeaway arrived hot and they even accept cards which is handy for such a small takeaway. Price wise, Radhuni is fairly reasonable, with a mixed grill costing £8.80 (not including rice) and a chicken korma £4.70. Rice is £2.50. The portions are a good size, with there usually being a little left over for later! There is also a good variety and number of dishes on the menu and there is a large choice for vegetarians. I would however like to see some sort of desserts or Indian sweets as there isn't any on the menu. In all a really good Indian takeaway with a fast and reliable delivery service.

Absolutely rubbish food with horrible customer service.I wish I could give rates in minus…read more We ordered paneer tikka masala extra hot and aubergine hot with garlic chilli naan on friday night (31st July). Recieved order after nearly 2 hours. The paneer curry was sweet and aubergine was uncooked.The naan was wet and rubbery. We called restaurant to pick food up and refund our money. Guy who called himself a manager (name was sahil) was extremely rude and unhelpful. He said he has paid £7 an hour to driver so he is not going to refund our money or give any kind of compassion. After an argument he said he will give 1 free curry next time. When we refused to accept the offer he disconnected the call. I would not advise anyone to use this restaurant.
