Bokhara was indeed voted Welsh Curry Restaurant 2009 and its website suggests one food critic rated it as one of the top ten in the UK. Driving out there doesn't feel like your going to an Indian as you come down the drive way up to the manor house. Yet the actual restaurant doesn't feel at all pretentious. Its Indian and Mediterranean so if someone in the group is adverse to the spice there is lot of other choice, especially fish. I went expecting a restaurant in a manor to cost an arm and leg and it really wasn't. In fact it was about the same price as our local, only even better taste. The chicken was so tender and the spices were so delicate and flavoursome. We went on a Saturday but apparently there is all you can eat buffet during the week so I might be checking that out very soon.

In addition to the a la carte they have buffet nights and takeaway and there are plenty of vegetarian options on the menu including a vegetarian thali. Naan bread is terrific. The only downside becomes clear when you step on the stairs to visit the loo. Stairway is filthy and the toilets are not a pretty sight. Gotta weight up those pros and cons, though the local competition isn't any better on that particular score.

The Viceroy, is a restaurant that also offers a takeaway service…read more Firstly the restaurant has a nice choice of different dishes, and on some nights (weekdays) They have an all you can eat buffet, that changes from day to day. The takeaway side of the Viceroy is Great, normally I ring them place an order. And by the time i'm there the food is normally ready. A point I will make about the Viceroy, and the meals from there, is that they dont always taste the same. Which I see as a good thing, in that the food is made, and not due to them ordering in Gallons of sauces. The service is always great too. I'd recommend it, for dates, family get togethers, or even when stumbling home from the pub.

However recently it has been taken over by new management and has pretty much all new staff with the manager trying to oversee them all. They clearly were trying but got several orders for drinks wrong and took several attempts to order the food. Also they have redecorated in a way that although looking very good, having removed all the carpets and any kind of material to soak up the sound and as such when it is full it's very hard to hear and can be very echoey especially as the music is played to loud. Having said all this it was near the start of the new holiday season (this past summer) and it was a new management team and they were very apolegetic and had a good attitude giving us a drink on the house so hopefully by now they'll have all the teething problems sorted out.

We've tried various curries and sides from here, including the korma, butter chicken, rogan, jalfrazi, biryani, veggie curry, sag aloo, and a few different naans. No complaints about any of the flavours with these curries! Their peshwari naan is packed with coconut and sultanas and goes really well with the more mild curries. They usually give us extra papadoms when we order them too. For takeaway, I'd recommend booking online if you want to eat early as they are often very busy at opening. We will continuing being regulars here!

A cold, wet, windy October night I was on the hunt of something warm, filling and tasty to eat…read more Enter stage left the Tale of Spice. And old pub converted into this fabulous Indian restaurant and takeaway. A full car park which is always a good sign, diners packed into the dining room noshing away at bowls of golden curry, fluffy rice and fresh crisp naan breads. There where four of us and we had booked because quite honestly you have to. I'd be very surprised if you got a table if you'd just walked in off the street. Again another very good sign. We where greeted by a friendly member of staff and shown to our table. Drinks orders where taken and poppadoms brought to the table. The pickles that accompanied the poppadoms where delicious. Not too sure if they where made in house or not I'm guessing not, but either way they tasted good. We did have starters and with quite an extensive collection there is a lot to choose from. I had the king prawn butterfly. A deliciously perfectly cooked king prawn fried in golden breadcrumbs and served with a small side salad. For the curry then, I had a lamb rogan josh. Quite a mild dish with only a little spice added. To accompany that I had a keema rice and a couple of chapattis. The rice dish is enough for two to share as the curry itself is quite filling. But it was a lovely accompaniment. Not too overpowering with the spiced meat and not too overloaded with onion they got the balance just right. The rogan josh was delightful. It's the first time I've had it and I was impressed. Delicately flavoured and packed with tomato and onion. The sauce was really tasty there just wasn't enough of it to dip the bread in. The meat itself was nice a little tough for my liking but still very nice. The chapattis where beautifully cooked, fresh and hot strait out of the tandoor they where perfect. Not too small you think what's the point. And not too bit you think what am I going to do with this? The meal was finished off nicely with complimentary liquors. We decided not to go for dessert because we'd had such a good meal there was no more room. The service in this restaurant is very good. The staff are friendly, polite and helpful. They are only to happy to recommend a dish to you especially if you a first time curry eater. The restaurant itself is very contemporary, spacious and inviting. I'd highly recommend this place to any curry lover or someone who wants to go to a curry house for the first time. I shall definitely be going back in the not to distant future.

I did ask for an explanation of why the Chicken Tika Masala was like it was but it was not satisfactory. The majority of my friends were also disappointed with their dishes, describing them as bland. One asked for a little more chilli and it went from having no heat to being far too much. Clearly the chef had no idea how to add a little heat. The three vegetable dishes were okay. Given the restaurant has a reasonable rating I can only guess that the normal chef was on a night off and the person who cooked our food was a stand in. Also, we had to wait an unusually long time for the food - nearly an hour yet the restaurant was pretty empty - it was Tuesday night. The staff were friendly but not particularly attentive to our needs. We were in a second parallel room and the staff in the other room. Not once did they come and ask if we would like anything else or another drink. It took them a long time to bring tpa water and the right number of glasses.
