The tikka masala is really good, and the tandoori fish is my favorite. Ambiance is good, a little formal so nice for a date night. The prices are good, but the wait staff is a little awkward. You get different service in England than you do in America - it's never quite as friendly because they aren't being tipped, but I felt the service was always very good for English standards.

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!

Wow, nice little jewel in the crown in a strange location, next to an Esso garage on the busy A5!…read moreBut if you're up for good quality Indian cuisine and excellent service, then put this place on your list. It's certainly not a cafe (don't know who called it that!) it's Simla Indian Restaurant - the best in the Midlands!! Excellent starter of tempura prawns gave me 3 king prawns with a sweet chilli dip and a pesto sauce, just in case. I ordered a bottle of South African Pinotage to wash it all down - and when the main course arrived I certainly wasn't disappointed! This place claims to be the best Indian restaurant in the Midlands - and I certainly have no reason to dispute that claim. Very, very impressive, hence the 5 stars awarded!! And, to finish, a chocolate roulade (I was going to have the raspberry but the waiter recommended chocolate...) and it was sweet and tastyish... but no, too manufactured so don't try it! This restaurant is far too good to have a bought-in roulade on the menu, so try one of the fresh Indian dishes instead!! Now that's REALLY fair - I asked for the bill and when it arrived the waiter told me he'd not charged me for the dessert because it was his recommendation and I didn't like it so much. Really good place (and the loos are spotless) so I'd definitely recommend you try it.

Ample parking and free after 6pm (Gurkha opens at 5.30) Two thumbs up!

The main part of the restaurant is upstairs, whilst there is a bar area downstairs. All tastefully furnished and adorned with Christmas decorations on the evening we visited. They even offer two alternative meals for Christmas Day, one classic Turkey and all the trimmings, and one three course Indian meal. We were a fairly large party of 10, but there was plenty of space, the tables weren't too close, like in some restaurants. The music was an interesting mix tape of such classics as Europe - 'The Final Countdown' and PJ and Duncans 'Lets get ready to Rumble' which made for an interesting musical accompaniment to our meal! The menu itself was an enormous selection of classics and other more interesting dishes. Obviously poppadoms to start, with a good selection of sides - Raita, diced onions and a sweet chilli sauce, no mango chutney though. The starter selection featured dishes like onion bhajis, mixed kebab, as well as meat and vegetarian platters to share. Lots of unusual dishes too like Honey Duck and Murgh Digg Diggi, which I was tempted to order for the name alone! Between us we had a wide variety of dishes, that came on plates with wells on them, with the three sides that accompanied the poppadoms, a nice touch. I went for the Garlic Keema Puree, spicy and flavoursome, a lovely dish, accompanied by a fresh salad. The array of main courses was even more comprehensive than the starters, obviously the old favourites like balti, jalfrezi, bhuna etc, but also lots of specials and interesting fish dishes like Salmon Massala. I went for the Moza Mix, a dish of medium spiciness, with a rich flavoursome sauce, a good selection of meat inside, lamb, a chicken leg and even a whole boiled egg! My wife went for the chicken tikka korma, again lots of flavour in the sauce, but not that much chicken. The accompanying pilau rice was a good foil for both curries, whilst the plain naan and stuffed paratha, were some of the best we've had in a while. Too often parathas can be very greasy, but this was packed with vegetables, crisp on the outside and packed with flavour. On the whole a great meal, I liked how the mains were heated on a gas burner on the bar, so they were piping hot when they got to you; draught KIngfisher is always a plus, and the price was on the low side. A couple of negatives, the staff whilst polite and helpful, did try to push the drinks a little, and the music grated after the second time of running through, but on the whole I was pleasantly surprised and we will return.
