Indian restaurant in Cardiff

“I guess that’s why they call it the (Bombay) Blue(s?)! The menu here is a joy to peruse - written with style and panache, it’s clear the author has a bit of personality! We always have a smile on our faces reading the descriptions. In the current climate of clinical and corporate menus it’s refreshing to read one that brightens up the often tedious ordering process. After analysing the menu we came to a matching consensus - we weren’t in the mood for messing around with poppadoms. We were going straight for the jugular. I opted for a Chicken Tikka Garlic Chilli Masala. Rice & Chips. Peshwari Naan. Cobra. The curry was flavourful although I expected a tad more spice. Nothing to write home about, but a very nice, solid ruby. I’ve had Madras and Vindaloos here in the past and they were right on the money. A game changing feature to highlight at this curry house is the option to order a portion of rice AND chips half and half. This totally eliminates the awkwardness of having to share portions with the rest of the table. More curry houses should implement this innovative idea, so kudos to the pioneers at Bombay Blue(s?)! The peshwari naan was delicate and moreish. Hats off to whoever was manning the tandoor! The cobra was ice cold. My fellow comrades went for the Jalfrezi, Murgh-E-Bahar and Korai. All polished off with zero complaints. This establishment isn’t trying to reinvent the wheel - which is a good thing. It offers consistency, value for money and good service - which is why we frequent it on a semi regular basis! I’ll conclude with a question for the ages - is it Bombay Blue or Bombay Blues? Either way, we’ll return to discover the answer!”

“Only place I'll order a curry from! I always have the chicken Naga curry with coconut rice and it's always delicious and beautifully spicy! Never had a bad experience from here”

“First time ordering from here yesterday and was really impressed. Speed of service, food quality & portion sizes were all top notch. Even catered to a special request I had made. Have tried quite a few Indian takeaways in Penarth and found them to be average at best. This is the exception, won't be going anywhere else from now on.”

“Ordered for delivery the first time ever from the restaurant, fast service amazing food I'm trying to move in the area at the moment so definitely will be my local Indian restaurant really really impressed”

“We have been there for dinner. Great food and nice people!”

“Lovely place amazing food which was really tasty and had loads of chicken in it. Just wish I got there a little earlier as they had sold out some of the things so I’d recommend getting there early.”

“Really very good in all aspects. Super clean and interesting waiting area for takeaway food (although wait time was very short). Excellent, tasty food (mushroom rice is especially good), and great service. Spice Fusion has become our 'go-to' for Indian food.”

“Absolutely marvellous food ordered from the Raj of Barry last night! The ordering app was super slick and easy to use, the prices are very good, and most importantly, the food was delicious and still quite hot when delivered to rhoose! All at the convenience of your own home! Can’t recommend enough! Very impressed!”

“Went in for a mixed kebab. First time here but was not disappointed. Staff were friendly and helpful and the food was yummy. Had the large size and am pleased to say it filled me up nicely. Would recommend.”

“Woww very good food and friendly staff. Good price”

“Glad I found this hidden gem! The food was clean, fresh, and bursting with flavour each dish clearly prepared with care. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the team made us feel genuinely welcome. We’ll definitely be returning to explore more of the menu.”

“Absolutely fantastic restaurant, the service was excellent. The food was incredibly delicious, with generous portion sizes that really impressed us. We were also offered the option to have our leftovers packed to take away, which was thoughtful and appreciated. To top it all off, the complimentary chocolate with the bill was a lovely final touch. Highly recommended!”

“We tried this fantastic tucked away little restaurant for the first time last night after reading about it online and thought we'd give it a go. We booked a table just an hour beforehand and were told no problem just come along and when we turned up we found it was just beginning to get busy at 7.30pm. The staff were very friendly and welcoming from the first moment and very helpful when I asked some questions about dishes suitable to my girlfriends tastes and needs they were more than obliging in answering. After a very short wait the food itself was absolutely superb beginning with the perfectly fresh and crispy poppadums and vibrantly colourful pickle tray which contained some really appetising and tasty selections. Before long the main courses arrived and they certainly did not disappoint as they tasted just as good as they looked as well as being generously portioned. The spiciness of the biryani that I'd enquired about was just as I'd been assured it would and all of the food was fresh, colourful and full of flavour. The peshwari naan and saag paneer side dish were also absolutely outstanding. The prices also deserve a mention as being very reasonable especially when compared to the other couple of great restaurants we have frequented in newport. I think this place tops those both in terms of cost and very slightly in quality too. The food itself feels very light and somewhat less rich and oily than most other places which we really found to be a bonus as we left feeling much less of the usual "after Indian feeling" that we usually get. We will definitely be frequenting this lovely little restaurant from now on and we wouldn't hesitate at all to recommend it to anyone who gets the opportunity to try it.”

“Had a lovely meal here recently. Food was incredible and the wait staff couldn't do enough for us! You know when you have an Indian and the meat is really dry in the curry? This wasn't the case at all here. Also really helpful and knowledgeable with allergens”

“Had a curry from Popadoms, and it was incredible! The flavors were rich and perfectly spiced, and everything tasted so fresh. The portion was just right, and the food arrived hot and full of flavor. The service was spot on too—friendly and quick. Honestly, one of the best curries I’ve had in a long time. Can’t wait to order again!”

“Best chilli beef mushroom chow mein mushroom fried rice I have had in many years. I was staying in the area for a week and ate there three times Would definitely recommend a visit. The lady that served me was very friendly the food is reasonably priced and very tasty.”

“Excellent food, great quality service from Naeem. Definitely the bets indian takeaway in south wales! The Goan Lamb was the best lamb I’ve ever eaten. Get yourselves to the Royal Balti!”

“Great take away, very friendly staff and food.”

“We have chicken tikka masala and it's just amazing I've had indian food from a few places in newport but they don't come close to simla spice, the service is good and friendly the food is stunning.”

“Best Indian takeaway around, wouldn’t go anywhere else”

“Food was delivered hot. The korma is one of the best I've ever had. Lovely breads and perfect rice.”

“Food was soo good and they their service was so friendly and attentive! We literally rolled out! @doubledippindeb”

“How fabulous. Fitted us in last minute. Delicious food. Fabulous service. Great customer contact. Definitely come here again. My second visit by the way..love the place... food is fabulous and I've been to India.. highly recommend. X”

“The most delicious biryani I've ever had.. £8.. totally worth. Very good ambience. Indian songs as well..”

“I don't usually leave reviews because I can't be bothered, but had to make the effort here. Food delivered quickly, was piping hot and delicious. The set meal for £12 is very good value too.”

“Me and my partner ordered a pizza each and mozzarella sticks to share, we were both really pleased with the food quality, portions were really good and fair prices. Only had to wait 10 minutes and helpful that I only live around the corner. Can't wait to come back soon.”

“What a great place to eat. In Cardiff for the champions cup and heard about this being one of the oldest curry houses. Great service and excellent quality food. We were a group of 6 and the restaurant was full but food and drinks were delivered in timely manner. Would highly recommend.”

“Ordered Chicken tikka masala, lamb masala and chicken korma. All tasted superb. Had some extras thrown in which was a nice touch due to the amount we ordered. Delivered earlier than expected and with a smile. Top marks.”
