I let Jane and Oli do most of the ordering, since they are regulars and not everything translates into American English and English English the same way. We started with papadum and relish tray, and a couple of Kingfishers (on draft). For the table we ordered pillau rice, naan (2 kinds, but can't remember which 2), and saag paneer. I chose the Hozor Ki Pasandwalla Murghi because I wanted to try to pronounce it, and it's one of Oli's favorites. It's thinner sauce with nice heat and a good amount of peppers, onions, and tomatoes. He chose the Chicken Laknavi, and Jane chose the Chicken Pasanda. Everything was nicely spiced - heat but still flavor. Portions were generous - we probably only needed half as much, but we couldn't resist all the flavors. We were treated to a drink afterwards with our bill, and Bailey's was a perfect digestif with the chocolate. On our way out, we were given a 2019 calendar as a holiday present. I'm looking forward to another delicious and friendly meal when I'm back in Oxford!

As soon as we said we'd love curry, my sister-in-law made the plans for us to go to Aziz. We…read moredidn't have a booking, but we got a table for 4 at 8 on a Wednesday with no problems. We started with the papadam with chutney assortment. There was plenty of everything in the assortment, and the papadaum was fresh and crispy. When it came time to order, everything sounded so delicious, and I was amused at how things seemed to be spelled slighlty differently than in the US. I decided on Lamb tikka masala, while Jimmy got the Chicken Korai spicy. We also got rice and naan for each of us. The food was delicious. The sauces were rich and flavorful. The meat was tender, not dry. The naan was slightly crunchy on the bottom and fluffy on top, just the way I love it. The portions were generous. We definitely could have been full from half as much food. Service was great, making sure that our water glasses were filled (perhaps they were worried about Jimmy ordering spicy food) and always checking that we had everything we needed.

The servers were incredibly amazing, the place was neat and tidy, and the food was the best part! It was the best I had! Back home we had average Indian restaurants but I thought that we had the best, and well Oxford has the best, making our Indian places back home are not as good so now that we had our food, I told them that I would leave the best review ever in the history of that place and well I don't know if it is or not. And did I not mention the area of the restaurant, a neat little pub right next to the place. And here are some recommendations for me for starters? Popadoms, main course? Chicken curry, for dessert?

I was visiting my brother in Oxford and we decided to come here for a family dinner. I'm used to American portions and seating so by comparison to American standards- the portions are rather small and the seating inside is pretty small- but nonetheless it's still a good place to come for dinner. We had a few different items that we all wanted to try, butter chicken, chicken tikka, both plain and garlic naan and some appetizers. The waiter tried helping us with our order to make it what we were expecting and asked about our spice tolerance as well. This was my first time trying 'poppadum' which was a fun appetizer, I highly suggest trying it if you haven't had it before. The food didn't take too long to come and the flavors were spot on!

The flavors were a bit different from what we get in the U.S., but overall, excellent. However, the naan was substantially below par. It was cold, not at all what I am accustomed to being served. It was shaped almost perfectly, like the naan one can buy at the grocers. It was a bit dry, and had some blue spots on it that could have been mold. It really gave me pause about ever eating here again. Maybe I'd give it another try - but I'd skip the naan. Service was very good.

I've eaten at the restaurant three times and ordered home delivery countless other times, and each time the waiter/ delivery guy has been sooooo nice. If you choose to eat in the restaurant and take a few minutes to chat with the waiter, he'll probably give you freebies. Okay, anyway, on to the food. The chicken tikka masala is creamy and gooooood, and the korma is the absolute comfort food. The rice is always perfectly cooked and fluffy, and the sides are oh SO delicious. (I've had the spinach and lentils, and the chickpeas... not sure what they're called, but both were excellent and went perfectly with their naan.) The portions are pretty good for the price range. They also do lunch specials for 4.95, but I'm not sure about the lunch portions as I always seem to get the craving for Indian food at night... speaking of which, they open until 11.30pm, which is a lot later than most places, so it's just perfect for those late-night munchies!
