As an Indian I have always struggled to find "Authentic" Indian flavours in restaurants especially outside London and LeicesterBurj has completed that gap for us especially in this part of UK.Khatta Baingan was a delight that I will not forget and will come again for thatNaans are fresh and the way you find them back home in India, unlike the ones that you find in curry housesThe staff is pleasant, knowledgeable and always ready to helpMost recommended if you want to enjoy real taste of India without going to IndiaAshutosh

Went to this one with a baby in tow - the staff were very accommodating finding us a table with plenty of room for the buggy. The staff were excellent with the baby too. My friend had to order a special order because of allergies and the attention to detail in making sure it was right with the manager coming over to take the order was excellent. Food yummy as always thank you!thank you for sharing this great review with us, we really appreciate it + hope to see you again soon

We dropped in on a Saturday night without a reservation, and were pleasantly surprised that they had some free tables and could offer us one! However, there was only one waitress, who seemed to be trying to do front of house/'meet and greet', plus serving drinks AND taking food orders.We ordered a bottle of white wine, starters and main courses, but after 20 minutes our bottle of wine still hadn't arrived - it takes mere seconds to grab a bottle from the fridge and place it on a table. If drinks are delivered, customers are usually happy to wait for the food - even if it's slow to arrive. Plus giving the customers their drink "locks" them in - they are committed to staying at that point. The group of four people on the table next to us had been waiting for absolutely ages and still hadn't managed to even order a drink. This did not bode well!We've had very slow service in New Delhi before, but this was a ridiculous amount of time without even a drink. They definitely need to address their staffing levels during busier periods. After 20 minutes, we decided to cut our losses, cancelled our order with an apology, and left.

My wife and I decided to give this restaurant a try having moved into the area recently. The previous reviews on TripAdvisor and the high ranking indicated we were in for a real treat, and our new local indian restaurant.The decor is lovely, but other than that it was all rather average really. Our starters were okay (mixed tandoori and a chicken tikka), but not as nice as most. Our main course were a bit of a mixed experience, my curry was very good indeed, but my wifeâs shashlick just consisted of a large chicken tikka starter, no sizzling plate or skillet, just bland with some fried onions.The service was very slow, no smiles, no asking if the meal was okay, just the bare minimum.Sadly I donât think weâll return, just not quite good enough really. Not cheap either.

Monday night friends dining. Food was spectacular. Well worth the money. Great service. Lovely atmosphere. Cocktails, starters, mains, puddings. I had tempura veg, a friend had steamed basket which she loved. The mains blew us away. I had the Lamb SiamThai Curry £11.50 - Tender Lamb in special curry with potato, coconut milk, Thai herbs and spices. IT WAS AMAZING! Not spicy hot, and so tasty. Coconut rice was huge and actually two of us couldâve shared. Friends had chicken salad and pork green Thai curry. Both loved. We didnât have room for pudding. We had it anyway. Friend had Mochi which was tiny and she enjoyed. Oh I had CHOCOLATE FONDANT! Except it wasnât called that on the menu, and I was so excited when it came. It was described as a chocolate cake with chocolate custard... anyway it was lush!We had a wonderful evening and the food was delicious. Thank you!Not only does this restaurant have great trip advisor reviews but it scores 5/5 for food hygiene too. Exceeded expectations- we will be back.

This was a mixed experience . . . . some of the food was excellent and some was just OK. We had king prawns and Himalayan pork ribs to start. King prawns should be succulent and juicy if they're cooked properly. Unfortunately these weren't, they were slightly overcooked and therefore too dry. On the other hand, the ribs were very nice. For mains we had Everest lamb and Himalayan chicken. The lamb was as nice as I could have hoped for. The chicken was very tasty but a bit too dry for our taste.We ate in the first floor dining area, and we felt that the decor was rather cold, bland, not particularly welcoming. It wasn't an environment that made me feel that I would want to eat there again. To make things worse, the continual sound of cars driving over a loose manhole cover became irritating. (I know that's beyond the restaurant's control, and it may have been be fixed by now). We will go back there again because the food was good enough to make us want to try more. I have a feeling that there is a lot more on the menu that I will like a lot.Hi Mike Graham,First of all, thanks for visiting us and trying our food. From your review, we understand your interest and attention to detail to taste and environment of our restaurant and we value such customers as it give us opportunity to work in these areas. We will take note and we will see what we can do best! About the environment, Old Town is such a vibrant location in Swindon which people actually enjoys to be in this lively place, mostly weekends. We are part of old town culture and as you mentioned we alone do not control the environment. Hopefully, everything grows with you if you do revisit! Hopefully, this wonât put you off as we have lot for you to try from our Himalayan menu! Namaste

This was our first time at this restaurant, though we were with friends who use it regularly., We were blown away with the food , it is so tasty. My wife does not eat rice , but she thought everything she had ( no rice ) was fantastic, I try myself at this style of cooking and it has inspired me to go away and try again , though with no chance of replicating the wonderfully tasty food we ate last week. Everybody is so friendly and we were made to feel really welcome. Thank you all for a superb evening.

Great tasting authentic Thai food, probably the best Ivectasted outside Thailand. The lunchtime set menu for £7.50 represents fabulous value. I have the vegetarian option so if you want tofu and vegetables you need to say so and it's an extra £1. That's not a problem but it would help if it said so somewhere rather than finding out by trial and error. Flavours and portion sizes do seem to fluctuate from time to time bug I've not had a poor meal there in 6-8 visits over the past 2 years.

We were here as 2 couples, a friendly greeting on arrival and a nice big round table for the 4 of us, so plenty of space. It doesn't feel cramped up here, so that was nice. The decor is neutral and we loved all the gorgeous chandeliers! The service was excellent, staff were all really friendly and helpful and ordering was very easy. Lots of menu choice, 3 of the 4 of us went for the special - lamb & pumpkin curry, this was absolutely delicious and can really recommend this dish which we had with rice and a couple of side dishes that were recommended by our waiter. The toilet facilities are near the services entrance, so that's a bit odd, only one female loo which was snug - but you're not here for that....You're not rushed either, plenty of staff around - no waiting for service, and they constantly check everything is ok with you but not ott. We all enjoyed our evening and we will be returning here and looking forward to the next visit already! Wonder what the next special might be Go try the lamb & pumpkin curry.... which is also available with an alternative to the lamb.... mmmm amazing!
