  • I have had takeaway twice and will return. The Rogan Josh is great, the vindaloo not so much.

  • We get English dhaba takeaway when we feel like a curry. The food is absolutely delicious. Lamb korma is so flavoursome and tender. We don’t go anywhere else for curry. Highly recommend.

  • Enjoyed having dinner at English Dhaba last night. We ordered, Prawn biryani, chicken saagwala and garlic naan. I enjoyed the biryani. The prawns were cooked to perfection. It was not the South Indian biryani that I am used to, but still was full of flavour and quiet satisfying. I have to mention, the portion size of the biryani was almost double of what we get in other places. Saagwala was different to the ones we usually get. It almost was close to a homemade dish. I was very pleased with the food and service. I am definitely going back to try more dishes.

  • Truly brilliant spot for a BYO. I can’t remember what we ordered but it was delicious. Great times. Definitely didn’t look like it had been plagued by fire. Will be back!
