THE best curry house in the city, as far as I'm concerned. In a prime location for students (just…read moredown the hill from Liverpool and JMU guilds) and with bloody decent prices, you can't complain! Ok, when you get inside it may look a little dicey, as the decor hasn't been touched up for quite a while and it's mainly filled with booths with the curtains drawn across. But that adds to its charm once you get used to it, and is especially handy if you're on a date. Once you're sat at your table (there are also some banquet tables for larger groups), you're given a fairly standard Indian menu, with the usual 'foreign' beer choices like Cobra etc. Don't do what my friend did, and say that because he was starving he wanted 10 poppadoms with all the trimmings before the mains arrived. We struggled to get through them, and then he insisted that they bring the curries out straight away, as he didn't want them to go cold or be sat on a hot plate. This of course meant that I couldn't finish half of my curry and could barely look at the beautiful peshwari naan. I've never had a dessert in an Indian restaurant, because the food just fills me up so much. I remember another time in the UnI when I was in a fairly bad state due to alcohol consumption and actually had a debate with myself as to whether I should go and make myself sick so I could eat the food that I hadn't touched, due to aforementioned alcohol. I know most people say a curry is a curry, but these are damn good and worth being sick for!! Another time my idiot friends decided to order fahls, which are apparently the hottest curries in the world. Being a strict korma fan, I watched in amazement as they sweated their way through. I mean, what is the point? Surely they couldn't taste anything beyond their tastebuds shrivelling and dying? Anyway, I digress. The UnI is fab fab FAB for curry and is affordable and quite quirky. I wished I remembered to go there more often, instead of always ending up in Shiraz!

Formerly known as Ayesha, the restaurant was refurbished and reopened under its new name…read more The focus however for those who frequented the previous restaurant remains on serving quality food and offering good value for money. The restaurant does have more of a family feel to it. The food is good, although I'd be lying if I told you it was out of this world. In all honesty I have had better, but decent it is. The lamb chat kora comes highly recommended by staff at under £9, it's worth a gander. Personally..I'd go for the tandoori chicken uri though as something a little bit different. At the same price the dish consists of seasonal Bangladeshi green beans, barbecued chicken and coriander. If not a great option a decent one instead!!!

We decided to visit this restaurant and we were very pleased with our visit. The ambience was pleasant, the staff were helpful & polite, it is a fully licensed restaurant so there wasn't any problem with our drinks. Once the Manager (owner??) found out how much I liked Indian / Bangladeshi food, and that I liked the curries to be 'genuine' curries, not produced for a European palate, he made sure that the food had the taste of Bangladesh. Each dish was just right - my wife's and our friend's dishes were less spicy, but just as tasty. It is a shame that only infrequent visits to Liverpool will allow us to try this restaurant more often.

The problem with The Light is of course its situation. Now that the Fulwood Arms has opened nearby, things aren't quite as remote as they once were along this stretch of road between Garston and Lark Lane so is is possibel to enjoy a curry some beers and entertainment next door and not feel like you are making a bit of a voyage. It would be worth it though as The Light's menu is offers a good array of authentic Indian dishes at very good prices and the staff are top blokes. Worth the trek.

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, it takes a lot for an Indian to impress me. You see…read moreif you have grown up on some of the most mind bogglingly delicious asian cuisine for most of your life, dining at these Indian pretender restaurants serving mediocre dishes may pass for good to the unsuspecting curry eater but not ME!! Light of Bengal is good, for most but for my money pretty average. Then again as I said it takes a hell of a lot to impress me. In fact there are a handful of restaaurants of the Indian kind I would actually recommend "highly" Mumtaz in Leeds is exceptional, the EastzEast installments in Manchester are bearable and there are others but Light of Bengal didn't really light my fire I'm afraid to say. No doubt this willl not and should not deter the rest of you going in for some "curry"

Great little Indian restaurant tucked way in the heart of a now busy Village…read more Food is excellent, never had a bad meal here yet and the prices are reasonable. The main attraction here is the atmosphere and the service. Service is impeccable, such friendly staff who also like a joke or three (watch out for the Vindaloo gag). The restaurant is only small so can get busy at 'peak' times, so i would suggest you book for weekends, if during the week i don't think you'll have a problem. Great food, price and staff, give it a try.

It's up there with the Millon Tandoori and Gulshan as one of the best Indian's in Liverpool, or at least south Liverpool, I would say. There's a range of dishes to pick from. I'm usually into a bit of spice - not the kind enjoyed by Wayne Rooney, I hasten to add - but my favourite dish here is the Shahee chicken. A mild dish full of honey, and chicken of course, which is utterly delectable. Throw in a sumptuously cooked peshwari naan, and I'm away. Oh yeah, and a pint of Tiger or Kingfisher or some other great Indian beer. The prices aren't bad for an Indian restaurant , the food is always worth it and the service is always quick and with a smile. They often throw in an extra poppadom too, which is a real bonus. But perhaps you have to be a fat regular like me to enjoy that privilege!

There is a little garden at the entrance with a gold water feature, which if it was working and didn't have water pipes hanging around everywhere, would probably look really nice and authentic. The interior is pretty traditional, with Indian style ornaments dotted around the place. The staff are friendly and polite, and will advise you on what to order if you're unsure. The prices of the food aren't bad, a three course meal will cost around £16 per person, with the mains costing around £7.50. There are set meals available which range from £14-£17 per person. I strongly recommend one of the chef's specials, the bulsari salmon - delicious.

It's best to go with a lot of people so you can try a bit of everything! We loved everything we tried but the chicken tikka masala with the sweet naan with the honey is the best! We can't wait to have dinner there!!!

From the outside it looks like any other Indian place and once you get inside it's again pretty standard. The difference is the menu and the quality of the food. I had a really excellent fish pakora to start and then one of the chef's specials as a main. The naan bread (the make or break element of a curry for me) was perfect so I was very happy. It was really busy and people were being turned away on a Thursday evening which is always a sign of good food. As a result I'd recommend booking a table in advance. You can get the metrolink to Altrincham then a taxi down to Hale or the train goes all the way there. This place really stands out from some of the samey average/poor curry houses in south Manchester.
