Top 4 Balti food in York, England, United Kingdom
Find out what Balti restaurants to try in York. Just two hours north of London by rail, the city of York holds 1900 years' worth of history in its ancient walls. The Romans built the city in 71 AD, and the Vikings captured it in 866 AD. Stop by the Yorkshire Museum and Gardens for a look at what the Roman and Vikings left behind (they must have packed light when they left). From there, move on to the York Castle Museum for a not-so-quick overview of the most recent 400 years.

It's disappointing that we have to give this restaurant an average rating because the food was very good especially the Special combo starter which was outstanding but the problem was the noise.The music that was played was almost nightclub level with the result that customers were having to shout at each other which made it even more uncomfortable.While our plates were being cleared I mentioned to the waiter that the music was too loud for comfort and he said; 'that's how the boss likes it'.Not long after we had complained about the noise, our bill was brought to us without us having asked for it.We were more than happy to leave anyway as we longed for some peace and quiet.Sadly we can't recommend this restaurant and would not return.

Went recently on the basis of personal recommendations, but really can't see what the fuss is about.We had a laal maas (a lamb dish), a dal (waiter's recommendation), and a paneer dish (again the waiter's recommendation).The three were close to indistinguishable from one another. The lamb dish pulled the (now sadly quite common) trick of really paring back on the meat, so was very sauce heavy. The paneer pieces were close to melting, so no texture there either. The dal wasn't bad, but nothing to write home about. So three pretty sad looking bowls of brown gravy. They didn't taste very different from one another. Also be warned they go heavy on the salt!Maybe we mis-ordered, but a) this risk shouldn't happen, and b) we asked for recommendations for two of the dishes. The three dishes definitely didn't work together.The rice and naan breads are pretty good.Dear Andy,Thank you for your recent visit to our restaurant, we are sorry that you didn't enjoy and would have been happy to rectify had this been raised in the restaurant itself. All the food is prepared fresh and have distinguished flavours ranging from different parts of India, our meat is of very high quality supplied by Mk butchers of York from the very first day we have opened. The recommendations would have been made towards your liking and sorry it didn't match your taste. All the 3 dishes you mentioned are very different in taste and texture and varies from north to western parts of India. Apologies again and hope you would give us another try. Look forward to see you again.Regards

As a party of 4 we recently visited the restaurant from the Trip Advisor rating. The place was fairly nicely arranged, and the staff were mainly friendly. The service was generally efficient, but out of the three different main courses that we had, the base curry was watery, and they all lacked depth of flavour. The meal was fairly reasonably priced, and for a Sunday evening, the place was full.
