Urban Tandoor

I haven’t been to Urban Tandoor for a few years and it is still one of the best Indian restaurants in the whole city. They’ve expanded the restaurant so there’s more seating now and they’ve also re-decorated. Menu isn’t over-complicated, offering classic dishes and some Urban Tandoor specialities. We had lamb tikka, onion bahjis, Salmon Moille and Butter Chicken with lemon rice, tarka dal and naan breads. Every dish was fantastic, fresh, tender, not oily and the spicing well balanced. The food is also presented really nicely, something you never get from a takeout. The service is always extremely efficient there without being rushed and what I particularly appreciate is how they checked everything was to our liking during each course, something a lot of these more ‘casual’ dining places overlook. They’re known for their lamb dishes and the Salmon Moille is particularly special so try those with the obligatory pint of Cobra.

For my first visit, I was absolutely blown away, great service and even better food. The staff were so welcoming and helpful and the food was extremely exquisite. I’m rating 9.9/10 only because it was a bit dark inside, great prices too I couldn’t recommend enough

Amazing food, great range of options available. I wanted to try a new Indian dish and decided to get the Goan Fish Curry. Very glad I did because I loved it! Spicy and flavourful with tender pieces of fish, I definitely want to return and have it again. The decor is beautiful and staff were so friendly. Service was relatively swift despite us being a large table. This is a great place to go if you are looking for a fun and lively atmosphere, but it can get very busy and loud during peak times. I would highly recommend a visit to try their amazing food!

Not from Bristol, but glad we found this hidden restaurant. Me and husband love their authentic butter chicken. Everything else we ate were super delicious too!! No other restaurant has beaten their flavours yet. Customer service was very quick and we were made to feel welcome by staff and management.

I enjoyed my first experience of Indian food here. Food was marvellous. I loved my Malabar lamb curry. They did say it had a medium spice level, but it was more mild than anything. Service was attentive.
