We loved him. we ended up being seated within minutes which was great. It was only Friday ... But the place was full at 7:30pm! Virtually everyone suggested the lobster so of course we ordered them. Honestly? It is one of the best things we have ever tasted. Seriously. Order it when you go. We got the side vegetable also amazing, topped off by the suggestion from Martyn !!! Trust. Do it. according to my dining partner, the lobster was the best he'd ever had as well and for the price you can not go wrong.... Simply incredible. Texture, flavor... Wow. We ordered a side of onion rings as well. perfection. So much deliciousness. Lastly, the chocolate fondant . Literally tears came to my eyes at the first bite. Between the perfectly cooked and gooey chocolate sauce, the sauce that tied it all together... It was the best overload. I will dream of this dish. The care and passion of the chef, staff and owners comes through in the vibe, the decor, the interactions between servers/staff, and most importantly... The Good Food. Highly recommend.

I placed an order with this place based on the previous review. What a mistake that was. The guy…read morewho took the order told me an hour for delivery, which is fair. After 90 minutes I called to find out where it was. It turned up 2 hours after ordering, but that's not the best bit I opened the bag on the doorstep to discover a large bag of mixed curry! All the lids were off the food and it was a big ol' bag of random curry! Needless to say, I refused delivery. So, I can't comment on the restaurant, but the takeaway service is shocking. Avoid at all costs.

I've never been disappointed. Its good value as well. The food is varied and well prepared. The restaurant has been redecorated in the last year or so when it was taken over by new managment and the name was changed from The Jaipur. The biggest disadvantage is the Dilshad has no parking and you can't park outside but the road at the side has some parking and if you can't find any spaces there you can use local council car parks.

Whilst visiting Torquay a while ago we spotted an Indian restaurant called Curry Ocean - the name…read moremade us smile being right by the sea - so we went over to the window to have a look at the menu. It was clearly a Bangladeshi restaurant as several of the items had Bengali names for the dishes. The restaurant didn't look very exciting from the outside to be honest but as it was just opening we went in and requested a table for two as we were really very hungry. From the moment we entered, seated, handed menus and brought over the beautifully presented starters, we felt very welcome and the service levels were just as good as the standard of food. The food was delivered in a sensible time to our table and we didn't feel rushed to move on to the next course, nor did we feel ignored. The music level was just right, pleasant music which didn't intrude on dinner conversation and when we said it was a little too warm, the heating was adjusted accordingly straight away. Both ladies and gents' toilets were spotless which is a great plus for me when going to a restaurant. It shows they look after the place. All the waiting staff were polite and friendly so we were happy to leave a pretty decent tip when they presented with the bill which was 100% accurate and very reasonably priced.

The…read moreexperience is akin to what you'd expect from a first class restaurant, not a run of the mill Indian. The food is amazing, with plenty of interesting and varied dishes to choose from; such the honey and orange glazed scallops that are always cooked to perfection. As well as the traditional curries, there is a wide variety of exotic main courses to really excite you. The food leaves you with an overall impression of expertise and freshness. These guys know what they are doing! When we visited on Sat 22nd August, we were expertly sold a Cilantro Cocktail to start our meal and it did not disappoint. Made fresh with vodka, coriander, honey and other spices it was well worth the £3.95. The wine menu is one of the best I have seen in an Indian restaurant, especially when we spotted the Gewürztraminer an excellent match to eastern food. The only downside is this quality comes at a price so expect to pay more than you would normally in a curry house. This is a special venue though and is worth the few extra pounds.
