Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

As a Curry lover I always try to visit an Indian restaurant when I am away from home and whilst in Newbury I found this one, The venue itself is clean and quite modern and has a good and varied menu. I requested a dish...that was not on the menu and when it arrived it was superb and exactly what i ordered cooked to the correct strength. The only criticism, which is minor, is that there was a little too much Gee used. The staff are very attentive and the service is good. One for the places i will return to list.More

We may be biased but the staff at Indigo Bay are always so welcoming and kind and the food is always delicious, there are several really good Indian restaurants in Newbury but none of them have such great staff

Everytime we do a friends night out we choose Indigo Bay as our go to. The chicken Tikka is absolute PERFECTION, from the tenderness of the meat to the aromatics of the spices. It never fails to surprise me how much I crave it! Slowly...working my way through the menu, but find myself going back to my favourites because I know they won’t let me down. I would recommend over and over again!More

Thank you for your review. Please our customers would like to hear about our food next time as what people do outside our restaurant we cannot be responsable for and what we are sure is our staff are not the ones who do that.

Kadem and the staff excelled again excellent food and service and a bargain on their banquet night. They ran out of sheek kebab but we got king prawn butterfly instead. One of my party and myself order our curries to be phal hot they got...it spot on. On the downside there was a very noisy loud group of younger people spoilt our night but I can’t mark them down for that.More

Saturday night, 8pm, two of us in here. Its a shame. I can only hope the majority of people were having a take out. This is a lovely little restaurant. The food is cooked to order, fresh and some dishes we have not had before....One of which we ordered, agra lalbahar. Chicken lamb prawn Spiced up in a sauce. Very nice The staff are very pleasant and you want to give them business. All our food was great tasting and hot. The Downside was, even being empty, the music played into the restaurant was only put on after us being there about 20 minutes and was through a phone, as suddenly stopped every time an order came in. Definitely going back to support them. EnjoyMore

Worst takeaway experience ever. Had two good takeaways from here followed by a mediocre one. This time was abysmal. Ordered through Just Eat early on in day for 7.30. Rang at 7.45 to be told he was on route. By 8.15 still no sign. Rang...restaurant who were rude and couldn't care a less to be honest. Told we would get a refund. Will probably be fighting for ever to get a refund. My advice is DONT BOTHER !!More

Had a takeaway from here a while back which was excellent so decided to go for a dine in. Shafi and the Indigo bay team surpassed our expectations we’ve had a lot of Indian food and this was right up there with the best. We...like it hot and it was hot, we also ask for a special dish of chilli bhajis/pakoras theirs were fantastic. Keep up the good work and thank you for an excellent meal.More

Booked table for 6.30, couple of tables taken, but large family came in after us. Took while for them to take drink order & poppadoms, took order for food & basically ignored for 45mins, meanwhile many takeaway orders going out of restaurant. Eventually had to...go up & ask where food was “it’s coming “ asked twice for complimentary drinks, eventually arrived & food soon after. Food good, but unfortunately they appeared to be concentrating on takeaway food. The large table also waited about an hour & they had several children, they left immediately after eating.More
