I have been a returning customer of Dhaka Delhi for what must be well over 5 years by now. I could write at length about the incredible food and service but my experience is far more personal. This is the takeaway that solidly fixed my taste on this Bangladeshi style of curry - but the greatest irony? No matter where I go? There is absolutely no competition for the quality (and value!) that I've come to expect from this humble Ruddington outlet. My routine selection is the achari gosht, a hearty lamb dish served with chillied mangos, and where they don't hold back with the tang of the citric ingredients, the savoury of the meat is all the more round, full and vibrant in flavour. It is an absolutely exquisite meal, easily my favourite dish and this is the restaurant where I learned a passion for it. I have never ate it anywhere else that comes close to the one served here! Every time I return to Nottingham, I make a point to return to Dhaka Delhi just for this dish. Besides the achari is also the Dhamaka Murug, a dish they will serve to an intense spice that, for my money, is more heat and far more flavour than you'd find from your typical high street Jalfrezi. There are so many fabulous dishes among the chef specialties, even their naan carries a distinctive aroma and body that I just don't see in other takeaways. I can't talk them up enough; get out of your comfort zone, try something new, get some spice in you, you won't be disappointed!

I recently moved to Ruddington and have enjoyed 3 meals in this restaurant, all equally enjoyable, and the ability to bring your own wine is really

The food was ok. The experience was awful the staff are rude.. there is one particular person that is very forceful and they struggled with a larger group and different orders alot of orders were wrong and some dishes didn't even come out to the table. It's also not explained that popadoms and pickle trays were added to the bill despite not being asked how many we would like or weather we wanted them as some people didn't eat them as they got taken away from the table without concent also the staff member took it up on himself to add these to the bill despite him suggesting to add them to the table. At the end of the meal we got charged an extra £14 on the bill we payed it but later worked out we were charged for an extra curry we didn't receive nor order! Later walking by the resterrant one of the staff members were speaking to a member of the public about how we were nightmare customers. I assure you we were polite considering how poor the service was. Definitely need a change over of staff! Also if you are disabled and require a wheel chair bare in mind the staff won't help you when entering the premisses it was a struggle and the staff just stood and watched! Definitely wouldn't recommend here!

Well, where do I start. Cannot take your own tonic water for gin . They charge you £2.50 for small bottles, and it is supposed to bring your own booze . My wife got told to remove her bottle tonic from window so people cannot see it from the street. Food my nan was undercooked and stoggy ,then I found a rubber band in my curry . Told the staff but no apologies from management. They just wanted to get us out the restaurant so I didn't kick off . I didn't pay for my half eaten curry . Not be returning.

Very nice quality meat but felt a little let down by the unexpected sweet taste of some dishes, lack of spicy heat too. Tables layed out nice and clean, but not so keen on the glass fronted window, personally I like a little more privacy, maybe some mirrored type glass so one can see out but not be so on view by passers-by. Lacking atmosphere too.

Had the set meal for 4; quantity was good and the meat (chicken & lamb) was all well cooked & tender. Down side for me was that there was too much sweetness to flavours; the tikka masala seemed sweet & coconutty, and the peshwari nan too sugary to eat. Also all the food was too mild for me, I prefer more hot spices.We had intended to eat in but when we sat down the bright lighting and big open window made us all feel too much “on show” so we changed our minds and ordered the food as a takeaway. Also we hadn’t realised there is a no alcohol policy which I really don’t like! Staff all seemed very helpful and friendly.

Not visited for a while, but we took friends for their first visit. We weren't disappointed!! The menu was still as good as before with extensive choice and some specialities such as the Dhamaka Murug which was excellent! The staff as always were really helpful and friendly and the quality of the food was very good.

Just had a wonderful meal with superb staff who made the evening really enjoyable. The food was fresh, tasty with a good choice of dishes. The staff couldn’t do enough for us. We will be making this our regular Indian restaurant.Vegetarian options: My wife really enjoys her vegetarian food and will always point to how fresh and tasty it is and this meal got ten out of ten

Had a fab night at the Dhaka Delhi for my bday celebrations. We were a big party of 14 and they looked after us so well. The food was so tasty and arrived quickly to say what a large party we were. Really impressed and will be going back! Thanks for having us.
