This place was just average, food was alright, can't say much more for it. Service was pleasant although a little slow. I won't be going back as I prefer to pay more for better quality.

I have eaten here on a number of occasions and the greeting could not be warmer or more sincere. The food is very good - albeit some times a little anglicised, but I think that reflects the palate of the local demographic . I have attended some of the specialist evenings and the food is a more authentic style. The... More

The best tasting Indian food I have had for years. My Jalfrezi always has plenty of large lamb pieces (unlike a lot of other restaurants) and is spiced perfectly. The standard is consistently top notch. The food here is EXCELLENT.

After trying many, many Indians in the area of derby as such the likes of anoki, Jee Ja jeez and the likes. I can safely say that Basmati is consistently of a high level of service, food and all round quality. In short if you want a great night out with good food and friendly faces then come here.

We went on New Year's eve to celebrate. We waited at the front until we were seated, first thing we saw was one of the waiters pouring an alcoholic beverage from the bar, he didn't tilt the glass and the foan went all over the glass, He used his fingers to minimise the foan at the top and used his...

We've been here a few times now and never been disappointed. It is advisable to book, especially at weekends, but we have turned up before without booking and only had to wait a short while. The staff are very friendly and welcoming without being in your face every five minutes, and the restaurant itself has a nice atmosphere and lighting.... More
