“ Very clean and neat curry place. Butter chicken curry was highly creamy and tasty... Although it might be high calorie. ”
“ Lovely old-fashioned curry house - it's barely changed in the 25 years I've been going there, but that's all part of the charm. Friendly staff, cosy and welcoming premises and a decent, varied menu with all the classics and more. Probably not the place to go if you're looking for somewhere trendy or modern, but it's got tonnes of character and always offers a warm welcome. ”
“ Service was very inclusive and heartwarming. The food tasted spectacular! ”
“ The best Indian I've had in Bristol by far! Lovely inside as well! I had the chicken tikka honey and it was absolutely delicious! ”
“ The Brunel Raj is easily the best Indian Restaurant in Clifton. Service and staff always friendly. Tonight I ordered Chicken Tikka Kara Masala which came with Pilau rice. My friends ordered a King Prawn Naga and a Chicken Jalfreizi, with a side order of Saag Aloo and a Peshawari Naan. We had 6 poppadoms to start, they were fresh and crispy. Our mains when they arrived were all excellent, and very generous portions. My chicken Tikka Kara Masala, had a nice thick sauce and just a hint of spice, the chicken pieces were long slithers which was nice as it gave more flavour on the chicken. We had a bottle of cold Bangala beer which went very well with the curry. Will be back soon. ”
“ Onu was very good at serving us. We booked a table of 2 and was sat down within seconds. I think we ordered the chicken tikka masala and it was probably the best i’ve ever tried in bristol. The price is amazing for how much food you actually get. ”
“ Food is amazing!!! Never had a bad curry here. Staff are very friendly and always ready to accommodate. This is the BEST curry restaurant in Bristol!!! ”
“ We had a family meal here when visiting Bristol, I used to live nearby about 10 years ago and I was delighted to find the food, service and decor was exactly as I remember it! We were a group of 8 and everyone enjoyed their meals, excellent food and service in the restaurant. Would definitely recommend and will visit again when I’m next in bristol! ”
