Amazing food, great service. Best Indian restaurant food I've had vs that in any other country I've been to. Just pick a selection and share. Intimate setting, great for couples and families.Parking: Don't bring your SUV unless you want to park very far away. The street is narrow with cars parked all along one side.

This is, hands down the best Indian in the area and beyond. Sensational. The King Prawn Shashlik and the Tandoori Monk Fish are next level Indian food. Off the charts good.

Great Indian restaurant driven by friendly and competent

Really nice Indian place you get what you pay

Excellent food and most attentive service in convivial surroundings with their own car park. Starter and mains for £40. Highly

I start with the poppadoms being super fresh. Then the smallest naan bread I've ever seen, fairly tasteless paneer and then bland lamb. I'm very disappointed. Wouldn't return or

Just had my first experience at Malik’s in Cookham. Food was excellent, good sized portions, and excellent taste. Will definitely be back to sample more of the excellent menu. Staff were very attentive, but not in your face. Thanks for a wonderful meal!

We had our Christmas eve dinner here with friends. We had booked a separate room and had one of the banquet meals.The service was rude and inattentive. I asked to see the menu to see what I was being served (I'm pregnant and lactose intolerant, as well as a few other things) and the waiter just laughed and said it'll be ok. But still didnt bring the menu or say what was being served. Just that it was 'all tolerant'. We ordered our drinks but also asked asked for a jug of water - which we were refused. He brought a bottle of water. When that finished, my friend insisted on a jug of water, which we got one of (and this was never replenished.) They were only interested in getting us out as soon as possible- didn't offer desserts. Despite the banquet menu including this. They came around with the card machine - but no bill/receipt. Just stated it was £55 per person, and expected us to pay up.The food quality itself was just average- bland ..what you'd expect from a watered-down 'Asian' meal. There was no authenticity. Definitely wouldn't have pinned it to Indian cuisine. (I've actually made better at home from pre-packed pouches!)I just didn't think all that was worth the hefty £55 bill we each paid! Will not be returning, so disappointed.Dietary restrictions: They just laughed off my dietary restrictions and wouldn't let me look at the menu.

We are regulars at Malik’s and it’s always a class experience from start to finish. You get a classic Indian restaurant experience but what elevates it is the outstanding hospitality, consistency, attention to detail and quality of the dishes, surroundings and experience itself. We often order it to takeout, it’s always fantastic dishes and a great service- hot, well packed, ready on time and with friendly professional service. Our child is very fussy with food and Malik’s butter chicken and naan never fails, so we make sure to get it a couple of times a month. It’s a godsend, well worth the money.

This restaurant is definitely dining out on long gone excellence.The service was surly and abrupt (locals treated differently) and was changed tables mid meal to accommodate a party of 2.The food is both highly overrated and overpriced. The King Prawn Tandoori Masala was in essence vile, heavy with coconut and cloying sweetness — nothing like a true tikka, and there was no char or smokiness on the prawns.Deeply disappointing food for the price and arrogant service.
Restraunt and staff were really nice, sadly the chicken tikka main & lamb tikka main lacking in flavour, hence the rating.

Delicious food, excellent service and welcoming ambience. A little gem of a restaurant in the heart of Cookham village. Always delivers and never disappoints.

Birthday event for over 40 people Excellent service with the food arriving all together was some feat by the kitchen. Food was excellent and very tasty! No hesitation in recommending Malik's for your curry evening
