    Customer service and quality of food is spot on every single time I go. There was not enough keema in my naan and it was replaced immediately. The decor of the restaurant is also very appealing. Customer for life.

    The food was good, so was the service, had to ask twice for a jug of water. But we will defiantly be going again soon.

    The food was poor quality and not representative as shown on the website. It was a disappointment. We have eaten in many Indian restaurants and I also cook the good regularly therefore we know what to expect from a good venue.

    Unfortnately I got my main course before my accompaniment as the waiter didnt listen when I said a 'well done, Peshwari Naan and the server then argued with me about it. He also failed to ring a taxi for us when we asked him to, will not return to this place nor reccommend

    Important Update:

    Quandoo is closing down. This is a planned, phased process and our platform remains available until 30 September 2026.

    Not an authentic Indian restaurant. No depth to the curry, no quality to the construction. Nice environment, good service and prices OK. Wouldn't go back.

    The service and quality of food was exceptional. Having lived in the area for 20 years and walking past Basmati 2 or 3 times a week, how have we never discovered this little gem earlier? We'll definitely be returning, and given that every table was full, we'll be using Quandoo to make sure we get a seat.

    Excellent value Sunday evening meal, friendly service and nice ambience. Would recommend highly! Athanu chicken from the main course menu was particularly good and they also do a fine lamb tikka starter.

    Really lovely meal there - all dishes were delicious and just the right amounts. Love the fact that the dishes are different - from Benghazi.

    Service and food was very good, although my husband didn't think there was much chicken in his biriani but the flavour was very nice. Would go back to give it another go but may choose a more meatier dish.

    Friendly service at the right pace. Young waiter struggled understanding my friends accent but was good humoured, and happy to be corrected. Food was really tasty, accurate chilli/spice heat ratings on menu, and served at good temperature i.e.. was hot. Mains portion size fine for smaller appetites but larger/ hungrier guests may need a starter or extra sides . Dessert was a bit disappointing.

    Basmati was a lovely restaurant with friendly and helpful service. The food was delicious and really tasty without being too hot for the sake of being hot. A really great evening.

    Good attentive staff. Lovely variety of mainstream and the more obscure curries. Cobra on tap and great naans and good value for money. Not too crowded either!

    Food was nice but portions quite small. Would recommend but probably wouldn't go back again. Tasty enough but have had better value at a different indian
