Description: Welcome to Bristol's best Indian restaurant. We are the pioneers of Indian food in Bristol. We offer enjoyable, memorable dining experiences - delicious Indian cuisines, exciting interiors & stylish hospitality. Unusually, we offer genuine Indian food from the true sources - the gourmet homes & street stalls across India's regions - prepared by skilled chefs from those regions. Come for genuine delicious Indian food. Our food is totally different from local curry houses. Do not expect curry house food. #HealthyIndianCuisine #GoodFoodBristol #IndianRestaurantBristol #SafeDineIn #DeliciousTakeawayBristol

The food fell far below the standard expected from other reviews. There was little depth of flavour and both our mains tasted similar despite being separate dishes. There are much better Indians in Bristol.

3rd best restaurant in Bristol out of 1200 on trip advisor, and rightly so! Tried it purely because of the ratings it had, It was fully booked but they still managed to squeeze me in. I was well impressed, you could taste the freshness in the veg, peppers, onions etc. If you're in Bristol and fancy an Indian... you'd be mad not to visit here. Probably best to book though! Really good service too, can't fault the place.

We ate here on my birthday and enjoyed it so much we went back a few days later when my parents visited! Loads of the dishes are gluten free so there's a massive selection to choose from, with the full allergy menu making ordering a doddle. All of the popadoms and dips are gluten free too! I would highly recommend this restaurant - fantastic food and atmosphere and reasonably priced for the high quality of the food.
