I came here while visiting family who live close by. They swear by the place and although I…read morewouldn't say my experience was mind blowing I can certainly see why they are regulars here. The decor is simple and unobtrusive and the layout is intimate without being cramped. We were served promptly throughout our meal and the food arrived in good time once we had ordered. There was a large group of perhaps 15 or so people also dining while we were there and our waiter made a point of coming to us first and explaining that if we chose from the menu quickly he would ensure that our order made it to the kitchen ahead of the much larger order they were expecting from the other table. This was a nice touch which no doubt saved us from waiting a lot longer for our meals. The food was very good, plenty of flavour and portion size represented good value for money. Menu choices were as you would expect from any Indian restaurant in the UK, there is nothing avantgarde to surprise you but no glaring omissions either. The only other point of note is the place does not have a licence to sell alcohol. If this is a blessing or a curse is a matter of opinion I guess but they have no objection to you bringing in wine/beer/soft drinks of your own to accompany your meal. There is an off licence close by should you arrive empty handed.

I usually have the bhuna but we had the jalfrezi this time and it was delicious! Lots of peppers and meat which makes a change to some other Indian restaurants in the area. A nice array of magazines to read while you wait or if I'm feeling organised I sometimes phone up before I leave and it's usually ready by the time I get there. Always piping hot which is superb because re-heating Indian takeaway will condemn your microwave for several days. If you are close by or even if you don't mind a short drive I would highly recommend this - you won't be disappointed. Also - a colleague of mine is a big Indian food lover and he always goes to the cinnamon tree for his Indian takeaways and swears by it!

I've been to Kayal a couple of times now and been mightily impressed each time…read more The cuisine is from the Keralan region of India and its excellent quality and unique flavours have seen the restaurateurs play host to both the Hairy Bikers and Gordon Ramsey. The restaurant is larger than you first think as it extends on two floors into the back, but its always advisable to book as its full most evenings (weekends at least). The first time i visited i ordered the Thali which comes as a 3 course meal (which a thali main) and then on my second visit i ordered one of the richest most delicious indian lamb dishes i've ever had. You cant go wrong as every dish on offer is delicious! The only difficulty we had was understanding the layout of the menu. Its a little difficult to navigate, so i recommend taking a quick look on the simplified board outside first.

What a find! We were staying in a b&b nearby and went for a late dinner on Friday evening. We…read moredidn't know much about Matlock before coming here and we were very pleasantly surprised. The menu is wide ranging, and caters comfortably for both vegetarians and carnivores - as I and my partner were that evening. Service was attentive, and our food arrived quickly. It was absolutely delicious, I enjoy Indian food and this was one of the best Indian meals I've eaten in a restaurant. The beetroot and coconut samosa was recommended to us by the waiter, as being a specialty of the restaurant - it was gorgeous, the pastry light and non greasy, the filling fresh and wholesome. For my main I had a smoked aubergine dish with peas and sun dried tomatoes and my friend had the butter chicken, which he loved as he can't handle spicy food very well. The garlic naan was subtle, infused with garlic rather than large chunks of it. The aubergine dish was divine, I'm getting hungry typing this and thinking of how good it was! The staff were very pleasant and friendly, our waiter Sri spoke to us for a while about the area and the restaurant and Nepal! The restaurant wasn't as busy as we expected for a Friday evening, but that's perhaps as it is before the main rush of the tourist season. Nonetheless it meant we received efficient and attentive service that evening!

We were very excited as were going to a restaurant after about six months due to Covid-19. We dressed up. The welcome was very warm and the deco was amazing. The food-some of it was nice. But one of the four dishes was cold and another one was the wrong order. Not a problem, we thought-these things happen. They were busy, so it took us a while to get the attention of a waiter to let them know-during which time a few ended up eating about half the cold dish. Whilst the waiter accepted that he might have misheard the order and hence got the dish wrong they still refused to replace it with the correct dish! As for the cold dish they said it had half been eaten. This was extremely disappointing and very poor customer service. I felt embarrassed, as had been recommending this place to my friends for ages- one had travelled from Shropshire. For the sake of a small bowl of dal, it left a very bad taste in our mouth, has earned Varanasi this poor review and loss of future customer. Mrs Kale ad Friends.
