The starters were over priced for the very small portion. The main was served luke warm, clearly microwaved or just heated up. Chicken was dry. We all paid extortionate service charge and overall paid £35 each for a poor meal. The only quality thing was the Beer

Went for lunch with reservation. Had the pathia and rice and chilly chicken starter. Homely taste, very affordable, and quick service.

My friend ordered a take away a couple of days ago Chicken and lamb biriyani We waited over 35 min for it to be ready , when there was only two people eating in the restaurant The veg dish was half filled and the colour of rice dull It was very bland Never tasted such a poor indian dish before

Went there with a group of old mates (11 people). The food was good and the staff looked after us very well. Prices were reasonable for Oxford. We had a great time.

One of the most uninspiring meals I’ve had in a long time. The raitha was just a lump of plain sour yoghurt with some cucumbers strips thrown at the side . It wasn’t even mixed. The Bombay potato tasted stale. The saag paneer tasted of nothing more than tinned spinach. The prawn curry lacked prawns. There was literally no redeeming qualities whatsoever. To top the experience, the popodums were missing and when we called them no refund was offered. No wonder the restaurant was totally empty. Never again. Absolutely do not recommend.

Big group of 15+Food was really averageOur server was really rude and impatientSome of us ordered for set menu, didn't even get the entire meal served. Portions for set meal were tiny. Still ended up paying a bomb.Lots of better restaurants in around Oxford. Never coming back to Jamal's again.

Good food, had a madras with pilau rice and a peshwari naan, curry was not as hot as I would normally expect but it was very tasty. Only small criticism would be the lack of wet wipes and the standard after dinner mint that most other places do.

RED FLAG for ppl who expect respect and services as part of their dining experiences. As a regular here(no more), I used to take friends to Jamal's, for I had to say the food is good despite average service. Today the two staff truly CROSSED THE LINE by showing me and a visiting scholar, who wished to use a prepaid voucher of Jamal's provided by her institute, to a TINY UNPRESENTABLE TABLE AT A STORAGE CORNER in the dark inner area at 5.30 pm weekday when there were only two tables taken in the front area in the entire restaurant. EAT HERE OR LEAVE HERE BECAUSE YOU ARE USING A VOUCHER" is what the staff went. Not to ruin the night of the visiting scholar

Our food arrived tepid. The dishes and plates were luke warm.. The waiter said this was normal.we asked him to heat it up. He did this begrudgingly. It came back the same. I asked him does he serve food at this temperature at home.. He said yes.. Hmmm. The food was tasteless and poorly presented. We make better stuff at home.. Up your game lads. It's a shame

We ate dinner on a Monday night at Jamal's. The food was good and it's a really clean and tidy dining area. The draft Cobra beer was good too. My lower rating is because when the bill was presented it seemed more than I expected. It was very hard to read and we asked the server to explain. It turned out my meal had been incorrectly charged by £3 and there was a £5 service charge - critically marked s/c. At first the server tried to say that the service charge had to be paid, but then said it could be removed when pressed. Of course this makes the whole experience uncomfortable and spoils an otherwise great experience.
