“ We have been going here for about 5 month now. The food is always spot on. Really good portions with plenty of meat! Saturday night we made a big order and everything was correct. Staff always polite. We have tried loads of different options from here and they all have a different taste. We have found at some other places the different curries can taste the same. Big thumbs up from us we will be eating in as soon as we can ”
“ Absolutely outstanding! First time ordering here and they smashed it out of the park. A couple of our regular curry houses had gone downhill and we'd tried a few places trying to find a new gem - all were pretty average in all honesty. Akhtars was recommended to us by a friend who'd previously recommended our current favourite kebab house. Ordered a peshwari tikka - creamy but with a kick, just my style. My wife ordered desi lamb, rich and spicy. Great spice blend, tender meat. Keema rice was excellent, prawn puri was perfect and the garlic naan, although slightly burnt, we quite like that charred flavour so not a negative there either. The mushroom pakoras didn't travel well but you e got to expect that. They were very tasty and a decent size portion. Can't recommend this place highly enough. Just sad that we're now on our January diet because I'd order from here twice a week! Really pleased we've found a new regular. No idea how much it cost, but after tasting the food, I don't really care. Awesome food and it arrived 25 minutes earlier than expected. I don't give out 5* very often, but this place would've got a 7*. Needless to say, we'll be ordering again. ”
“ Had dinner with my family on new years eve. First time eating in after using Akhtars for takeaways for a year and it's even better than the takeaway !!! Can bring your own booze (massive plus) Definitely coming back!!! ”
“ Edit: Oct 2024 - Sadly, despite rumours of just closed for a refit, now seems to have closed down. Shame. Update: Dec 2024 - Good news! They're back and food as good as ever! ”
“ Came here for a curry club, absolutely phenomenal curry, arguably best I have ever eaten. Fantastic place. Will return. ”
“ We really like it here. Enough to go twice in a week. The menu was quite different to the more generic stuff we see at home. Less greasy and much more tasty. Friendly staff, excellent menu choice for veggies. Don't be put of by the dark exterior making it look like they're closed... They probably aren't and much brighter one inside (we had walked past thinking it was closed but glad to be wrong). ”
“ Well I have gone passed this place so many times so thought it was time to drop in and have some food. The place is very large inside and so many confused staff!! It must have been training day. Food was served prompt and actually very tasty. Got a great deal for a starter and a main for around 13. So the deal is its cash only and you need to bring your own beer and wine....I will return!! ”
“ Went for a monthly curry club with some mates. Absolutely amazing food and the owner is a great bloke. Would recommend to anyone ”
