"It is the first time for me to eat Indian food. My sisters told me that Indian food cooked in UK is very good. I had my first experience at The Eastern Eye and most definitely…. They did not disappoint. They did made my first taste of Indian food a very pleasant one. I ordered a lamb dish that was their house specialty. SUPER GOOD!!! It was a take-away order. The chef was super nice to also give me the chicken version for me to taste. It was very good too. The salad and sauces were also very good. Will go back again if we do not get dinner tonight together with our tour. THANK YOU!!!"

"This was the absolute best Indian meal I have eaten. The staff are so helpful and polite, the owner is beyond wonderful and the food was unbelievably tasty. So much to choose from and every dish was incredible. The flavours were perfect and the atmosphere was perfect for a date night and for a meal with friends. The booths give you privacy and the staff are so attentive. We will definitely be going back many more times. Without question the best Indian restaurant in Plymouth."
