The chef/owner, Mr. Babar Khan is delightful, as is his son, Babar Jr., and the chef's cuisine is…read moreexcellent - at least the buffet is. It was one of the few places open near Deans Clough on Boxing Day and I am so happy my cousin & I found it. I tasted 3 different chicken dishes and my favorite was the kebab. It had numerous herbs layered within the meat - it was almost like a chicken sausage. Very flavorful and sumptuous. All of the vegetable dishes I had were very good. I highly recommend Babar Khan!

Now I like to unveil some hidden gems and in my oppinion this is one of them. To look at it is…read morenothing out of the ordinary but we're not all about appearances are we? Well I hope not or I probably wouldn't get in the door of most places. Having said that it has recently had a face lift so it's also not a bad looking player either. It's a lovely and intimate Indian restaurant just over the road from Sainsburys. That helps with the whole parking situation too. As for the food I can highly recoomend it. Infact I'm giving it two big thumbs up. Great house specialities, firey hot if that is what you want, less so if you don't and a great selection of sundries as well. The separate bar area is nice to chill out in before leaving and if the take out food is anywhere near as good as eating in then Friday nights in front of the TV look very appealing. I suggest you live a little and eat out though, you deserve it. Indian food cooked well and good serice to boot.

I've been here a number of times and the food is pretty consistent in quality of ingredients and…read moretaste, which is quite an important thing I look for. Customer service is EXCELLENT, which is another essential. My only bit of advice I can give this company is to ensure good value for money, as on occaision I have noticed they have used less chicken in their dishes and more bulked out with sauce and peppers. If they can stay consistent with a decent amount of chicken in their dishes, then I would and will happily give them a 5 star review. Great tasting food and great service. This is a good recommended place.

Has to be the best Indian restaurant in Huddersfield, the…read moremenu choices are a refreshing change to the typical Asian food most restaurants in the UK serve. Our starters of spicy chickpeas and potatoes served in a rolled up puri was melt in the mouth delicious and mine of spicy haddock served on a sizzler plate with lots of spicy onions were the best I've had anywhere. The mains were just as delicious, the paratha bread was light and flaky. The décor is light, modern and clean and the staff are very helpful. Would definitely recommend visiting the Chilli Lounge Heard good reports about the buffet too watch this space!

Visited this curry house early evening for the curry meal deal…read more Varied choice of 2 courses so we decided on the main course and dessert rather than starter and main course. Quite slow service as far as taking your order, bringing drinks and first course being served was approx 45 minutes and there were only another 2 tables in so wasn't busy. Curry itself was okay but tasted better and then afterwards we waited for half an hour before they asked if we wanted the bill. Advised we wanted desserts and they advised they had run out and fetched the bill. Still charged full price for 2 courses despite only being served with 1 and very slow service, all in all we were in there for almost 2 hours. Lack of management impression, won't be visiting again.

This was by far the best tasting curry I have ever had! I'm not a huge fan of the hotter/spicier…read morevarieties so liked the fact that they ask if you wantit mild, medium or hot. The chicken tikka makhani is absolutely beautiful and as not many Indian takeaways/restaurants feature this dish, I will definitely be re-ordering soon!! Looking forward to a visit to the restaurant.

Had visited Kabana about 6 weeks ago and seeing as there was three of us we decided on the 3 person…read moretawa.. back then no complaints, but... we have just revisited and being 4 of us we decided on the 4 person tawa! What a mistake that was, i only wish i had read the reviews beforehand as our experience basically mirrored what other people said in their reviews. When we entered the restaurant, we were seated virtually straight away at a window corner table, there were 5 chairs to the table but virtually a third of the table was pushed in to the corner so unusable, we decided to pull it out slightly and move a chair to make more room. people were then seated to the back of us and to the right of us and essentially, we were all rubbing seat backs, not very good at all. we ordered then went to salad bar and before we had even finished the salad which was maybe 5 minutes from ordering, the food then arrived, how on earth could it all have been cooked fresh in 5 minutes! it couldn't have! of which I'll explain later... when the food arrived there looked to be less than our previous visit and looking at the menu of what you get for an extra £17 approximately, is half of a barbeque starter which that in itself is only about £11.50.. so what an absolute con!!! wouldn't have been so bad if you had extra curry. but maybe that wasn't a bad thing at all as the night went on!! regarding the food the curry was ok but not as good as last time and the chops and chicken wings were black and burnt, plus they were so small hardly any meat on them at all. another thing that was off putting was a waiter stood there staring at you, soon as you were finished, they swooped in and cleared the table. When we left, we went for a walk around the park, I didn't feel right at all, my partner was ok as she only really had a little bit of the curry and a bit of salad. we all went our separate ways and i got a phone call the following morning from one of the friends who went out with us, asking me if I was ok. I wasn't, I had been up half the night backwards and forward to the toilet, it also transpired so had my two friends! we went on Saturday evening, today is Monday and he is still suffering. Our guess is that some off the food was precooked and then reheated hence the super quick time it was brought to our table. so never again, Kabana needs to up there game and look after their customers... oh and another thing... for what you pay the portions are really not worth it.

This is another gem. If you're an almond and cream curry…read moreperson it's not for you ... it's a cafe environment but with polite waiters and the food is home cooking style superb flavoured fayre. Frequented by lots of Asian people which speaks volumes alone I'd recommend the fish masala and daigi dishes ... Second time here for a late night curry ... Huddersfield sleeps at night it seems lol Nowhere else ?!?! But a great find anyway :-)

This place in the 80's was AMAZING, Fresh food, great vibe but sadly a recent visit on a Friday…read morenight was so mediocre. All you can eat buffet on all night on a Friday / no a la carte? come on this was fine dining Indian style lovely cosy decor, great service, illegal immigrants in the kitchen (best chefs - their cooking is so focused when they know they are only 1 bhaji away from being deported at gunpont) After coming here on and off since 1981 this will probably be the last. Modern Indians like Zouk in Bradford & Manchester are the benchmark in 2009 that all these places should be looking up to to help bring their restaurants forward. Amen.

Absolutely appauling…read more We went here last year and found the Korma to be a bit 'tangy' so we think perhaps the cream was a bit off. Anyway, 1 year later and we thought we would give it another go and see what happens, and we can deffinately say that there shall be no 3rd chance for this 'resturant'. My husband and I went here for our lunch about 2 weeks ago and and before I sat down, I went to the toilets. My tip is, ALWAYS check the toilets first, we learnt in food hygiene courses to do this, because if they haven't cleaned the toilets then you can just imagine what the kitchen is like, but also because the chefs need to go in and out of the kitchen and toilets so they will be bringing back germs to the kitchens. The toilets were disgusting! Considering that they had only just opened for the lunch rush you'd assume that the place would have been properly cleaned - NOPE. As soon as you walk in you are greeted by a disgusting and unknown smell and right infront of you you can see the toilets, underneath the toilet lids you could see the splashback from people flushing the chains. The floors were sticky too. I was ready to walk out there and then and I wish I had, but my husband had already ordered for us. It's a buffet, but they make you up a starter and this had been ordered so we stayed. The starter was 1 lump of chicken, some weird star shaped 'thing' and then the cabbage and tomatoe salad. Well, the cabbage was obviously from the day before, it had all be chopped up and every peice was browning, the tomatoes had no moisture at all and seeing as this place had only just opened and would have been making their foods etc, the popadoms were stale. Still, we stayed :/ We then went up to help ourselves to the buffet of different dishes and rices. The rices were only JUST warm and very rubbery, and the Korma was a weird yellow/orange colour and looked like the jar Korma stuff that Iceland produces. Most of the Korma in the catering/heating dishes mainly contained sauce, it was difficult to pick out the chicken, My husband then took a bite out of the chicken and spat it back out as it was stone cold. We refused to pay the entire amount, but as we ate the starter, we did pay for that. Absolutely disgusting, and also reported to the environmental health. The lady next to us had complained to her friend that something she was eating was RAW, so that's not very good either. Never again. Stay clear!

Test number one the minute you see 'naga' mentioned is "is it Mr Naga?" Or "is it fresh" An immediate pass ... It was fresh ! Obviously enough attention to detail and ingredients to be better than the 'oh Nagasaki don't last long you see so we use Mr Naga" Ps:just realised not everyone will know what I mean but if you do you'll really love this restaurant. Black mustard seeds with sweet corn amongst chilli yoghurt and spiced onions to accompany the Papadoms. Very nice . Chicken liver appetiser and onion bhajis crispy fried and dark too went down a treat ... No soggy middle bit :-) Thin chappatthi with deep flavoured curry and a lovely aloo gobi side dish. We were treated to a small taster of 'sexy mushrooms' which if you can ever make a mushroom sexy did actually get off the mark ! Creamy spicy and errrm mushroomy too :-) Look forward to trying this little gem again for an intimate atmosphere and nice decor in a modern yet trad Indian restaurant style ...

The curry we ordered was spicy and had a rich flavour. We ordered nan bread also, it was quite large so I became full before I could finish it ^^ We drank the House white wine, and my friends tried out the Cobra Indian beer. It went down well with the curry. The price was reasonable and the place overall was very nice. I've recommended the place to a few of my friends already. I'll definitely be going again the next time i'm in Huddersfield.
