Went to this restaurant for dinner before going to a concert. Very nice greeting, we were very early so it was quiet, eaten at many Indian restaurants and can honestly say this is in our top 10. Plenty of flavour and choice, nothing was a problem. Didn’t wait long, care had been put into the cooking and it was all exceptional. Great to Sat pre concert as the concert hall is 5 minutes away.

First time visit and it won’t be the last. We ate early so very quiet but the food was excellent. All extremely tasty, good sized portions and was no problem when I asked for extra coriander, which was brought promptly. Try anything. I.m sure you won’t be disappointed. Can highly recommend a visit

Been to this Amazing Restaurant many times over the years and never disappoints. First time back Tuesday night after COVID restrictions the place is immaculate so clean and safe everything in place. The Food is Amazing as ever the Service is second to none they honestly can’t treat you any better complementary dishes after dishes then a pudding and coffee honestly and when the bill came you can’t help but tip them absolutely amazing Service. The Best Indian Restaurant in Leicestershire.

This used to be a decent place to eat but has unfortunately gone very downhill. The food isn’t nice at all. My son refused to eat his - looked like a pale bowl of sick. Nothing seemed fresh and tasteless. Pappadum’s tasted of stale oil, Naans were flat, oily and bland. Only one other table in on a Friday night so i’m guessing others are avoiding too. Needs a lot of attention decor wise. Storage boxes in view, a collection of dirty looking water jugs still with old water in on the side. Very off putting. A real shame. Left very disappointed.

Stale poppadoms, a game of “find the meat” with each dish, no chutneys provided, overall a poor curry. Maybe caught them on a bad day but won’t be risking a second visit. Advice would be to concentrate on doing what the customer has ordered well, freebies aren’t what the experience will be judged on.

Ordered for a Saturday night in via Uber eats. Food came very quickly and the serving sizes were very good and nothing missed. I was even given an extra portion of rice, and accompaniments to poppadoms. However, the food wasn’t as tasty as I had hoped, the curry was spicy, but apart from this lacked other flavour; the naan breads were very flat and didn’t taste as good as I had hoped. I really did enjoy the chilli paneer and poppadoms, however generally speaking I felt the food was oilier than other places I have tried. 3 stars for excellent service and generous portion sizes, although I feel there could be some improvement on the taste of the dishes.

Visited as a family of four. Had a great experience from the minute we walked in. We were greeted at the door by a friendly staff member. The food was very fresh and delicious indeed. We received some complimentary dishes too and even got treated to an ice-cream and a bowl of fruit. Absolutely amazing will definitely be back.

Booked for a group of 12 on a Saturday night whilst visiting the city, partly due to the BYOB. Really pleasantly surprised by how tasty the food was. Our party was gifted a number of complimentary naans, poppadums, rice. We were brought glasses, cork screws etc immediately on arrival and given plenty of time and space to relax. Just wish we'd had more room in our bellies to do the food real justice as it was good quality. Several of the dishes were on the hotter end of expectation - which was absolutely fine for us but to be aware.

We were visiting Leicester to see our son and followed a recommendation to go to Nawaaz - so pleased we did! A bring your own alcohol restaurant, the staff are really friendly. Bright, clean and comfortable, we were welcomed in with complimentary poppadoms and pakora. A great choice of dishes, including a range of specialities. The mains arrived with complimentary aloo gobi, tarka dahl and chicken tikka - fabulous. The meal was then followed with complimentary ice cream, fresh orange and melon slices. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals and would whole-heartedly recommend this to anyone.

The food was a complete let down, really unpleasant. Starter over cooked, 2 x main courses were powder sauce, both the same, different colours, tasteless. We should not have paid for the food, could only eat 20% at best including the mains & sides. Rice & fruit afterwards were nice. But didn't feel good afterwards & terrible headache today. On the positive the staff were excellent, friendly & efficient. In all my yeas, this was the worst food I've eaten, sorry but thats the way it was.

Me and my partner went to Nawaaz restaurant on a Friday night with some friends. We were the only ones in the restaurant (which worried us all a bit considering it was 8pm on a Friday)! However, the service and food was excellent. We got lots of free food too, which was a bonus. Poppadoms, rice and extra dish with our meals to all share which was a nice touch. Not forgetting the complimentary ice cream and sweets at the end. You can take your own drink into this restaurant to enjoy with the meal and offered takeaway boxes for the food we didn’t manage to finish. Lots of selection on the menu. Very reasonably priced. Only downside for me was that the restaurant seemed very dated. But that wouldn’t put me off returning for another meal.

Ordered a takeaway from Nawaaz off of JustEat, only roughly 2 hours ago. Both curries (butter chicken and dupiaza) were so tasteless and watery, it was basically inedible. Considering the dupiaza is supposed to be medium spice, I’ve tasted spicer microwave curries. There was nothing pilau about the rice and the garlic naan tasted nothing of garlic. I called them to complain and their response was that I need to follow it up with JustEat?! Laughable, when they don’t cook the food. The best thing about the takeaway was the coca-cola. Never visiting again.

We went here after a concert so it was the end of the evening which may account for some of the issues. We did receive a number of complimentary items which is nice but we’d much rather have had 4 good main courses. The tandoori chicken was very overcooked and dry and the chicken tikka in the curries was a strange spongy texture. The curries felt like they had just be boiled up, there were no layers of flavour. It just had very little flavour. It all felt like a school dinners meal. We usually have delicious curries in Oakham where we live and viewed a Leicester curry as a treat, but sadly it wasn’t. It did cost much less though. All a bit blah sadly.
