This was our first visit and Nawaaz has gone straight to the top of our list of favourite Indian restaurants. The food was excellent the service with several complimentary dishes was great. Even the bill was a pleasant surprise.

Really friendly staff. Very attentive. Caring "family" feel. Food choice superb, and chefs accomodating to tweak dishes to suit individual preferences and tastes. Generous portions, unexpected extras AND a very reasonable price. I don't visit Leicester often - but will come again to see these guys. Definitely give them a go. Superb.

Lively atmosphere with great food and so reasonably priced. Fast service and lots of extras which were complimentary. Very friendly staff. Would recommend this place and I will definitely go back again. Opens at 5pm so a good place to go for a pre-show dinner

Lovely food and very fast service. We went on a Saturday night and were seated upstairs. It was very noisy with a group of lads nearby and a group of students opposite. Perhaps not the best setting for a romantic meal, but we couldn't fault the friendly service and value for money. Chicken tikka masala was very sweet but the lamb dish was delicious.

Very busy noisy and crowded on a Fri evg but our reserved table for 10 awaited us. It's bring your own alcohol but there's a Sainsbury on opp side of very busy London Rd. Street parking very difficult but Granville Rd £2 parking nearby. Food was very tasty & good value but as a non-Asian I can't judge its authenticity. Staff very helpful, food came reasonably quickly. Manager gave our large party some freebie sides and was very anxious that we enjoyed evening. On a Fri/Sat evg. it's a good for a group but not for romantic couples.

Waited longer than you would hope for to make orders but once orders were made food came quickly. But compared to the quality of food to our last visit was world's apart. We came back as it was such good food and value. This time food was not as good so value is not viewed in the same way. My starter was looked on in envy last time. Had the same but everyone asked if I had ordered different as it was 3rd of the size and quality of presentation etc. Main meal was OK. But only OK.

Neither Complimentary dishes nor bargain prices will blind knowledgeable curry lovers - the food here sadly is rather poor quality. It was a huge disappointment.

We got loads of free things, poppodums, chutney and onion, bite sized onion Bhajee, one naan ( which was an order mistake, two came instead of one so they knocked it off the bill) two small potions of different veg curry and ice cream. Both the curry’s we ordered were ok, but nothing special, but for the price (£21) it would be mean to rate them any lower. The restaurant was packed with a great atmosphere and the service was good.

As always this restaurant is great value for money with lots of extra complimentary dishes and fast service. We didn’t have enough wine glasses or cutlery on our table but staff were happy to provide. The lamb in the rogan josh was a bit tough and my friend said the prawns were rubbery but everything else was great.

Not sure how this place has so many positive reviews. We turned up on time and were ushered to a table next to the bar, which was fine as it was relatively busy. As soon as I took my seat, my dismair began. The music in the background was a kind of Asian MC, thumping my brain like some sort of Greek plate smashing backing track. I turned to the bar to check whether the draft was Kobra or kingfisher and my eyes instantly starting bleeding with horror when I seen there wasn’t a draft machine at all! I looked down at the table, and there was a plate of popadoms that had been thrown onto our table without even asking us and within 30 seconds of sitting down, the plate was still spinning at this point. I nervously broke away a small crisp of the popadom and aimed for the mint dip, to which I found myself dipping into thin air as this hadn’t been provided! I looked up and asked for a waiter, who I could only describe them as looking like they needed a good iron. They had clearly just been told to wear a white shirt, except, they weren’t white anymore. All of the waiters shirts looked like their wife’s had accidentally mixed them with the dark wash, and what’s more, most of the staff had a chow Mein like dish appealingly poured all over the front of their torso. At this point, we decided to call it a day. We seeked to get one of the waiters attention by peering over the bar full of finished plates and asked for our final bill for the crisps. We were out.

Very good overall. Fortunately we booked as there is quick turnover and the staff were very busy. They still provided good service. Nice table. A range of good freebies were provided including poppadoms straight away with 2 dips. Then followed shortly thereafter by mini onion bhajis with a dip. Starters were brought with the main to cut down on time - you really are limited to a 1.5 hour slot and the table before us were late leaving. Fortunately the people who booked our table were 30 mins late otherwise we would have felt rushed. Good mains, plenty of food, good price. Don't forget your own beers! Overall, good food, good portions, good service and good price. Recommended.
