Excellent

Jan 2020 • couples

Ate here for my 60th birthday, our 26th wedding anniversary. Although slightly on the expensive side, the food was excellent, more than enough to fill us both, staff were really really nice, helpful and nothing seemed too much, we were seated within seconds of arriving, with popodoms and dips arriving within a minute of seating and a bottle of water with the glasses filled by the lovely waitress even before we'd even looked around.Food was served shortly after our order was taken but nothing seemed rushed, without being intrusive the lovely staff, all dressed in beutiful Indian attire, were always around and making sure we were ok. A special mention to Amelia, who took our booking the day before,provided the requested window seat,came to say hello after we'd been settled, which was a nice personal touch, she then served our meal up, and then when we'd finished eating and asked for the bill, arrived with a chocolate cake with candles and two dishes with ice cream, having remembered it was my birthday. Overall a very pleasant experience , one which we hope to repeat, great food, authentic restaurant, and even though they were obviously busy, nothing was too much... highly recommended.

Well Done

Dec 2019 • friends

10 of us went here the Thursday before Christmas it was busy and we’d booked a table for 8pm, was taken to out table on arrival no waiting messing around, all ordered we all had the mix starter with popadoms and chutneys all very good and on the table with in 15 mins alongside a bottle of tigger beer, not a bad achievement to say there wasn’t a empty table in the restaurant. Then the table was cleared and the mains bought almost straight away, we ask for all mixed dishes of all meats and fish with different rices breads and few sides, I must say everything they placed on the table not only looked good it was very tasty with spices, we carried on eating our way through it all at leisure not feeling rushed or anything obviously with more tigers placed on the table, the staff was all brilliant in every department and task. We are a group who visit a different curry house every 5/6 weeks been here several occasions now and certainly be back again, we all know a good curry house when we visit one and this one never fails us and I don’t give excellent to many curry houses we visit but this visit it was well deserved. Thank you very much for yet another successful night

Left before even eating

Jul 2020 • couples

Attempted to eat at Anoki Nottingham last night. Had already pre-booked didn’t need to give our name we were shown to any vacant table. Before I even pulled my chair in I had chutney and pompadoms shoved on the table then the waitress walked off, no chance to be fully seated or even ask if we wanted drinks. Menus again were chucked on the table and we had to shout them back to order drinks. We drank our drinks and ate the pompadoms and 40 minutes passed no one came to us despite trying to get staffs attention. We finally got someone and just asked for the bill for the drinks and pompadoms the manager then came and demanded £10 for a Diet Coke and a soda and lime and refused to give us a token for the free parking. I dined here years ago and it was amazing and staff were so attentive. Unfortunately it’s not like this anymore.

Not as good as recommended

Aug 2020 • couples

We visited this restaurant as recommended by various friends and was looking forward to something special, food was great the service not as good. On arrival the deliveroo drivers were acknowledged better, even though we had booked weeks in advance they seemed as though we were a walk-in as they struggled to find our table. Our order was taken and the poppadoms came out very quickly and so to was my starter which came without the poppadoms bowl and trays being removed. We then waited a very long time for the mains to come out and also had a child's high chair placed at the side of our table as they didn't know where else to put it, would have been ideal if we had a child with us but for a romantic meal for 2, not ideal. We were never asked if the meal was alright and to add insult tried to charge £8.80 service charge, which they would have got if it hadn't been for terrible service.

Increased prices due to “eat out to help out”

Aug 2020 • family

Can’t help but feel like we were taken advantage of a little....this has always been my favourite Indian restaurant but when they are charging 40%-50% off per main course more just because they knew we were getting £10 off per person I thought it was a bit poor. In the end it wasn’t much if any cheaper than normal. Doesn’t help either that the bill included a £13 service charge for what was ultimately a £93 bill. We had to ask for a child’s menu (that we never received) then I basically had to barter with the waiter on the cost of the child’s meal as they wanted to charge us £27 per head even for a 10 year old. Lovely food as always but the service left a bad taste in our mouths and we reconsider whether we visited again.

Over priced

Aug 2020 • family

Too pricey. Went on bank holiday with family. It is over priced. £20.00 for a curry and taste was OK I had better before. Been to few very good restaurants all over UK. Never seen a portion of curry costing that much. Family of 4 bill came down to £120.00 and it included service charges of £10.00. Really takeaway price for curry is £10.00 and £20.00 for eating in, what's service charge then for. 1st and last trip for me. And please upload you restaurant menu on you website so customers know before they sit on table. Only takeaway menu on the website which is bit of con..

Far too expensive and restrictive

Jun 2021 • couples

I wouldn't particularly class this as a fine dining establishment, the service and atmosphere isn't anything spectacular to justify the utterly extortionate price for the food. You're talking £20 just for a main! The food is nice but in no way is the price justified. Additionally they don't allow individuals to opt for the 1 course or 2 course set meal option, it's either everyone on the table has it or nothing. They even state something along the lines of "no changes allowed". I mean, it's that the approach and language you use when you're paying a ludicrous amount for apparently fine dining? Stick to other local Indian restaurants that are more reasonable and offer the same level of quality.

Overpriced and Inattentive

Jan 2020 • couples

Probably the most expensive curry house I've been to in Nottingham. No attention from staff only had one drink as they never asked if we wanted more. Food served in cold dishes. Mine was tasteless although my companions liked theirs. Had to ask for the bill four times. The male toilet was dirty and looks like it needs a refurb. Poppadoms 1 drink 3/4 portion of rice and half a bread and a main each was 36 pounds a person

The Ultimate Dining Experience

Feb 2020 • friends

Anoki provides the ultimate dining experience for those diners who are not prepared to accept second best. I have eaten at Anoki twice recently and both occasions can only be described as exquisite. From the moment you enter the building you are welcomed and made to feel that you’re more than just another customer. Nothing is too much trouble and we were soon seated with a drink and some poppadoms to enjoy whilst we debated which tasty mains to select. Regardless of whether I’m dining with family, friends or colleagues we always opt for the Anoki banquet and I thoroughly recommend that option for others, as it provides you with an opportunity to try several fantastic dishes instead of the just usual one or two. The chef at Anoki is a master of his craft and if you have a personal favourite that’s not on the menu then don’t be afraid to ask for it as there is every chance that he’ll be able to rustle it up for you without any hassle at all. Just writing this review is making me crave another visit to Anoki so I’ll be heading there again very soon and I suggest you do too.

Wonderful service

Feb 2020 • friends

I visited this place for my birthday. Often got the lamb chops and dhal or keema nan for delivery which are beautiful so wanted a sit down meal. Unfortunately my girlfriend made a mistake with the booking. They still accommodated us with beautiful smiles. The meal was lovely and they even got me a birthday cake! At the end of the meal, I left a gift on the table by mistake (too much wine and song). I realised when I got home and called. Straight away they remembered us and kept it safe until I could pick it up the next day. Fantastic service. Wonderful helpful and friendly team. What more can you ask for?! Pay them a visit. You won't be disappointed!!

Did somebody say just heat???

May 2020 • family

During the corona pandemic Anoki have come to the fore with their ‘justheat’ range. At a time when many of us are feeling the strain of being in lockdown and missing out on so many of our every day treats Anoki have well and truly ‘delivered’. Anoki have proved that they are undoubtedly the number 1 go to curry restaurant in the entire East Midlands with their exquisite food being delivered to your doorstep, on a daily basis. I for one have stocked my freezer full of my Anoki favourites and I would recommend the just heat delights to anyone craving an amazing curry during these difficult times. Until I’m allowed to dine inside again I’d like to say a massive well done to the Anoki team for making the effort to give a sense of normality back to their growing number of diners. Visit the Anoki Facebook page.....I promise you that you will not be disappointed.

Perfect anniversary treat

Sept 2020 • couples

A perfect Covid19 safe anniversary meal out with my husband. All the staff were attentive and made helpful suggestions ensuring our meals were just right. King prawn puri divine 😍 sorbet cleanser delicious and the main courses faultless ( Garlic chilli chicken and tandoori king prawns) What is so lovely about the restaurant is that although it is a big space, tables are positioned in cosy romantic sections, soft lighting with an elegant atmosphere 🥰

This curry’s too currylicious for you babe

Apr 2020 • couples

We ordered this online during lockdown after being disappointed with the most recent new curry place we tried. Anoki had good reviews so we gave it a go and we were not disappointed. We ordered 2 naan which were nice and fresh, a side dish each of the aubergine and paneer makhani - both were delicious and of a generous size. We also had main dishes of vegetable jalfrezi and lamb haandi which were also lovely- the lamb was good quality. Good job Anoki, curry on just the way you are and don’t change a thing!

Fabulous experience again

Aug 2020 • none

We have been patrons of Anoki for a long time and always receive a great welcome from the team. The staff were very conscious of the Covid guidelines and we felt very safe. The food here is amazing! It’s in a league of its own and the team are always happy to adjust the dishes to your taste - nothing is too much trouble! We are 1 hour from this restaurant but it’s well worth the journey - thank you Faz, Akram, Adam & team for a fabulous experience again. Hope to be back soon.
