I recently attended this restaurant on my birthday with a few friends and had good experience with food and service. I would definitely come again and every plate, bowl and dish was polished off completely as the food was LUSH.

Authentic Indian Cuisine though it states Fusion. Staff were polite and accomodative. Menu has plenty of choice. Prices are reasonable, can check from the attached Menu.We had ordered Kebabs in the starter and Prawn Balti, Goan Lamb chops, Butter Garlic Naan & Keema Naan. Surprisingly they were not spicy as usual Indian food so kids could have it. Kebabs were amasing, must try starter. Not very happy with the Lamb chops as we struggled to cut the meat from the bones. Naans were soft & well cooked. Prawns were not very tasty so might be from frozen stock. We ended up ordering more as we were told the size of Naans was circa 6inch but they were more than 8 inch so be cautious.Limited parking just 3 cars in front of the restaurant but worth going around on the backside residential area to find parking.

My son, daughter, and myself visited recently, and all we all had different meals. We were all delighted with the quality of the food, and the service was excellent .I will certainly be visiting again and would recommend it to anyone .

Go for the food!Although the restaurant itself is getting tired & in need of a refresh, it is clean & inviting. But the food! It is delicately & authentically spiced. Most importantly there is no oily residue in any dish - not even the deep fried puri (super impressive chef!) and all the breads are light not doughy.I wish you were nearer to me.To put this in context - we work nearer Birmingham so it’s easier to get to a million local curry houses - none of which serve this quality food.Enjoy this Bournemouth! And thank you Balti House

It was a bit cold in the booth where we were seated by the window, my companion kept her coat on throughout the meal. There was a wall heater situated nearer the inside tables. We ordered poppadoms which came with some garnishes to start with and half way through we were asked for our menu choice, we didn't understand why they didn't want to let us finish the poppadoms first, maybe it was a time thing to get our food cooked. The main meals of mixed grill with a plain naan and a chicken korma dish with a garlic naan and salad were delicious and plentiful. This restaurant does not have a drinks licence so you can bring your own without any corkage charge which makes it inexpensive. Worth a visit to this establishment in Christchurch Road, Boscombe.

This is one of those hidden gems, modest and as the best Balti houses are, placed in an area that doesn't necessarily float everyone's boat. This should not put anyone off though. The staff are brilliant, food was amazing. Yes it could do with a lick of paint, and equally they could raise their prices. That last point is an unusual thing to say. Affordability-wise this was amazing, I would expect to pay probably 20% more. Thanks for an amazing meal. P.s. they don't have a drink license, do bring a bottle - although the Mango Lassi was amazing.

Saw mixed reviews for the place but thought would give it a try as more good than bad. Firstly the manager needs some lessons in customer service, rude and has a lot of attitude in him.! Ordered kebabs for starters, half way through there was a hair cooked in.! Called the manager who took the plate and offered a replacement but no apology or explanation for how a whole hair over 2” long is cooked into the food.! His response “we can just take it off the bill if you want”. The mains arrived a little better but still not as ordered, asked for no garlic or ginger garnish and both the biryani and naga were full.! The waiter who served us after was a lot more professional and courteous. Overall was a bad experience and would not come here again. At any point throughout no apology was offered for the service provided by the manager and hair cooked within the food.!
