Reviews Summary

Masala Indian Cuisine garners praise for its outstanding curry and tender chicken tikka, often described as the best ever tasted. Diners frequently highlight friendly service and unique touches like hot plates and towels. However, some reviews note inconsistencies, with one experiencing a disappointing starter and another finding food tasteless and poorly presented on a particular occasion. While the main dishes are often celebrated, dessert, specifically ice cream, has been criticized for being too frozen and gritty.

"Restaurant was clean with very friendly staff, they put all your food on hot plates and give you hot towels to finish (and chocolates) the food was lovely and fairly priced, my one little niggle is that I would say my curry was a tiny bit to sweet but other than that it was great."

Conrad Stanley

"Meal was good. I had a sweet masala with fruit it that was nice. The service was fast had our starters before my friend could decide his main. Would go back if in the area again."

David Fry

"I ordered a prawn puree, worst ever it was literally just pastry and no prawn or filling of any sort. Really disappointed. The chicken Tika was nothing like I expected but it was really good whatever it was, chunks of chicken gorgeously cooked so so tender. Amazing flavours everything about that dish was spot on just wish I knew what it was as I'd probably order it again. I reckon they got my order mixed up but who cares when I was happy with what I was eating. Great Indian and I'd def use them again. Very tasty, very good portions and great flavours."
