Redland Tandoori Restaurant in Redland, Bristol

Reviews

1. Nancy Niederhauser ★★★☆☆

   We looked forward to our first meal at Redland Tandoori because of its appealing menu and great Google reviews. Our experience was disappointing in most ways. We’d booked via their website (perhaps unnecessary given our 5pm slot), choosing the Fork option. The first minor annoyance was that we kept getting messages confirming from both Fork and Google. When we arrived, on time for our reservation, I was not sure the restaurant was even open, it was so dark. But the door was open. We spoke to the staff person setting up tables and he had no knowledge of our reservation. He explained perhaps the owner had not passed on the information. We were seated without much welcome. Another perhaps minor annoyance was that the appealing menu was in a cover which hid either parts of the item or the price. We ordered items we regularly had at our previously favorite Indian restaurant to compare (we only stopped going there because it had changed hands and changed the food and experience). The pappadam were rather stale and not hot (we later heard some crunching at the next table who came in after us. We guessed we had left overs and they had fresh). The best part of the meal was my fish tandoori. It was excellent and I loved the grilled vegetables which were included. My husband ordered lamb dhansak. He received chicken dhansak which did not compare favourably to past experiences elsewhere. My roti were lukewarm and without much flavour. His naan were different from his past experience, but he enjoyed them. I am disappointed in our experience because I had high hopes given their many tandoori choices. We will not return since the negatives strongly outweighed the positives. We were in agreement to rate it 3 out of 5.

   The food is excellent, the staff are friendly and the restaurant has a great atmosphere. Perfect for a meal with your family or friends. One of my favourite places to eat in Bristol.

   Excellent, oh my god. How long I have craved for an amazing experience is beyond my comprehension…….. I ordered biryani with curries and it did not disappoint. The flavour of an authentic Indian dish was unexpected from this fab restaurant which also came with a hint of pickles and mango chutney. Every taste was satisfying each craving to eat more and fulfilling. I would definitely recommend for anyone new looking to grab a small bite or a dinner for the family.

   I have eaten here many times. It has a calm and welcoming atmosphere. The service is always good and the people who run this place are really nice, so I like to support them. I have heard others who have eaten here say the same thing. It is excellent value too. The lamb curries are especially good. I notice that the same dish is often prepared slightly differently on different occasions, so I think they have a home cooking approach.

   It's a very good restaurant, but very quiet at the moment as it's new. Best of luck for the future.

   Not from the area, and happily stumbled across this gem of an Indian. They were very busy with takeaways, which is definitely their main effort, but they welcomed us to sit in and looked after us remarkably quickly. The food was amazing. Hot, tasty, and beautifully spiced. Thank you.b

   Unfortunately when we arrived to collect our order at the states time it wasn't ready. We waited 45 mins while it was being prepared. They also tried to charge us for a starter that had been crossed off the order and we had to ask for this to be refunded. During this long wait we weren't offered anything apologie. Once we had returned home with our order, a Naan bread was missing. We phoned to ask for this to be delivered. It was agreed that it would be delivered within 15 minutes and an hour later it still hasn't arrived. Very poor customer service.
