Our second visit here on a Maundy Thursday prior to a flight. ! A £12 taxi ride from the airport and beats anything could find to eat there hands down! Amazingly the owner remembered me from 12m ago! A new menu and even better Stand out dishes for me were lamb chops salmon tikka and lamb Rogan Josh. All excellent. It’s up market and really quite excellent. As good as any Indian restaurant in London where I’ve eaten in a few good ones!

Everything about this place is amazing, the food the atmosphere and especially Valeria, an asset to your team. If you are looking for some amazing food with a twist, I would definitely

I have eaten in the restaurant and really enjoyed it.We decided to order via Deliveroo. Unfortunately arrived Cold (more Deliveroo) .The food tasted nice but the portion size with the Deliveroo take away are ridiculous. Papads - £4.50 and we only get 2 whole ones (I am being generous). £6.90 Chicken murgh malaria - main only get half a chicken breast (see photo). Paying restaurant prices and you get less food than if you were in the restaurant!Left a real sour taste as It has been good experience in the past. My advice don’t order via Deliveroo they reduce portion size to offset the Deliveroo commission they have to pay.I won’t be doing that again

Do not go there if you want to have real indian meal.. Food was nicely presented and visually convinng but failed to equally satisfy in taste . It mostly tase like they add sauce of each food to chicken and lamb... Taste of butter chicken was like when you cook chicken and add to Tesco butter chicken sauce, same for roghan josh... My friend has byryani, it was not real biryani at all

Delicious food with a chilled out atmosphere. The cocktails looked great too but we didn't try any.

Authentic Indian cuisine but also fusion options, every mouthful was delicious and exquisitely presented, friendly efficient service. Lovely decor - we dined early, which was fortunate as a loud group arrived and was seated close-by as we finished our main course.

Why i m giving ONE star?Wonderful place and average taste and good ambiance but with highly fleecing and ripping prices. This was the first time i ever had one naan bread less than 100gram, for £4 during last 17 years. Chicken karahi was having only 4 boneless pieces for £13.50. Chili chicken had same figure. Chana masala was having hardly one table spoon of chick peas for £8.50. Kids meal had only 8 piece of potatoe fries and two small chicken cubes in butter curry for £13.50. After seeing all this i never had courage to buy any drink.I paid £97 for six people and none of them was having any sort of fill.For me total should be maximum £50. The snobbery of being Hale Restaurant is purely designed to rip people off their hard earned money. I strongly believe that even workers inside are getting national wage regardless they show off working in 'Hale'. Then why customers have to pay ridiculous prices for portion worth 1/4th of price charged.Service was average but decent. I requested for naan bread four times then it came and curry became cold by then. So i used spoon to finish my curry as i never leave food waste behind.I will always say if you have money to throw in guttet then go there. You can have 100 times better food in Rusholme for 50% less then what i spent there and all were hungry at the end.

Great food and atmosphere. The 65 AED set menu has brilliant options and is super tasty. Recommended :)
A great evening to celebrate a family birthday. The food was exceptional, atmosphere great and the service second to none. The staff went out of their way to ensure we had a memorable celebration.
