I would say as a semi- regular, the food was to its usual very high standard, the staff as always were very friendly and welcoming, and the service were excellent. Looking forward to my next visit.

Unfortunately this visit wasn't as good as last visit. One of the starters arrived cold. The main I had although the curry itself tasted nice the lamb was dry.

Tasty food and attentive staff. We were a family of five and the menu suited us all. Staff encouraged us to try different dishes and the chef also sent out a couple of complimentary dishes for us to try. Food was delicious and portions were of a good size. Will definitely be back!

It was our first time to the restaurant and had a pleasant experience. The recommendation of the set menu was good, allowing us to try the different type of Nepalese food which suits the group. Staff were helpful and friendly. We'll definitely visit again to try some other dishes :)

The menu has changed with some new options to select from. The food was absolutely excellent. One of the best Indian meals I've had in Aberdeen for a long time. Service was first class and very busy restaurant which is always a good sign.

The staff were very friendly and explained the food well. They were attentive but left you without interrupting conversations. The food was different but beautiful and presented well. There was not too much food leaving you feeling bad that you'd wasted lots and you weren't encouraged to order too much either. We had a lovely meal out and will go back again for sure.

Excellent food in a lovely setting, the staff were friendly, attentive and helpful. I had a lamb Rogan Josh, the lamb was succulent & the sauce flavourful, I prefer a slightly crispier Naan than normal and that's what I got. My neice had the chicken Pasanda and she enjoyed her meal too. Thanks

My Fiancée and I had an excellent quality meal here. The service was attentive and friendly. Once the owner knew it was my fiancée's birthday he added a drink on the house for her. Really class. Would recommend.

Excellent service and food. All staff able to advise on dietary intolerances and allergies. Lovely decoration on the ground floor level. Improvement would be to redecorate the toilet facilities, they were slightly bizarre.

The food we had was tasty but not really what we like to eat, we should have picked spicier dishes. This was our first visit and would know better the next time. We also would like to say that we felt we could have had slighter more meat in the curry

First time at 8848 and we were ETA 3 disappointed. We were given the option of sitting downstairs or upstairs and we went for the more relaxed and quiet area upstairs. Service was exemplary and waiter was very knowledgeable about the dishes and wines. Food was very nice, especially the starters of Chana and chilli chicken and all food was flavoursome and piping hot. Enjoyed our meal and will be back. Thank you.

Lovely food, staff were attentive but didn't look sure we had made a reservation and said they had a table free for us upstairs which made it sound like they were fitting us in. Much quieter upstairs with less atmosphere, would have preferred to be where it was more lively but they were full. Would go again but book over the phone and request downstairs.

This was my first visit to 8848,my partner had visited on several occasions & gave glowing reports. I must admit that my first visit was extremely enjoyable,the attentiveness of the staff,the ambionce along with the food on the plate which was faultless. I have been won over - I will become a regular...

Our food was beautifully spiced, cooked and presented. We could not fault it if we tried. We eat early, at 6 pm, and it is good to see this excellent restaurant deservedly becoming more popular even at that time.

Excellent meal with a good and varied menu. Only let down was that when we first got our pompadoms they served a dip tray that had been used and had dirty spoons. Otherwise great food and we will return. Cost was not too bad for a city centre restaurant. Atmosphere was good too.

We had an itison voucher, and the deal was ok. Waiter was a bit vague on what was included, some dishes have a supplement and it varies as to the dishes. I asked the waiter to recommend a spicy lamb dish, which wasn't very spicy (even my wife thought that, and she doesn't do spicy). Drinks are reasonable service to start with was a little slow, but as more staff came on, it evened out. All in all was OK, but don't know if I'd rush back. On a separate note the itison vouchers have to be seated before 5, and the staff seemed to change at 6. Our parents were ther yesterday, and it seems the staff tried to charge them full price, even though they had presented their voucher when they arrived, as per policy. Took them almost 15 minutes to get things sorted out.

Can't fault the food, only real issue was that instead of being sat downstairs where the atmosphere was - we were ushered upstairs to the over spill area. This was even after making a reservation ahead of the meal....
