Reviews Summary
The Curry House is praised for its authentic and flavorful Indian cuisine, with many highlighting the exceptional curries and tender meats. The service is consistently described as friendly and attentive, contributing to a cozy atmosphere. However, some patrons have experienced issues with food temperature and quality in takeaway orders, and the spice levels can be intense even in milder options.
"Came here from a recommendation as a place to try while visiting the UK. The food was absolutely amazing and the staff were very polite. I would definitely come here again on my next visit. The chicken Naga was the best dish I had."

"First (and last) time ordering from The Curry House ... after hearing good things about this place, we chose to order a takeaway to be delivered to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Sadly, we were really disappointed with the quality of the food we received. The Saag Aloo was like a half portion. Most of the food was barely warm, despite being delivered 20 mins early. Overall, it was a poor experience. we paid £50 for one starter, two mains, a shared rich, a shared side and a shared naan bread."

"I recently had the pleasure of dining at THE CURRY HOUSE , and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by friendly staff and a cozy, inviting atmosphere. The decor was modern yet comfortable, creating the perfect setting for a delightful meal.
The star of the show, however, was the curry. Each dish was a masterpiece of flavor, perfectly balanced and expertly spiced. The menu offered a variety of curry options, from traditional classics to innovative new creations. I opted for the Lamb Shank, and it exceeded my expectations in every way. The meat was tender, and the sauce was rich and flavorful, with just the right amount of heat.
What impressed me most was the attention to detail in every aspect of the dining experience. The service was prompt and attentive, ensuring that my water glass was never empty and my needs were always met. The staff was knowledgeable about the menu and happy to offer recommendations.
The portions were generous, and the prices were reasonable for the quality of the food. I left feeling satisfied and eager to return to try more of the menu.
In summary, THE CURRY HOUSE is a must-visit for curry lovers. Whether you're a fan of traditional dishes or looking to explore new flavors, this restaurant offers something for everyone. I highly recommend it and can't wait to go back!"

We went last night with friends who came to visit me in Shrewsbury. There was so much choice and variety and the service was excellent. The waiter had great knowledge of the menu and gave me choice of different medium/hot currys (my preference).
