  • Yogesh A

Good food. Nice variety. Upstairs dining restaurant. Fair price for food, bit pricey on the drinks. Waitress was a little new to the job. Empty when we arrived at 8pm but soon began to fill up. Downstairs toilet facilities required cleaning, did inform waitress but nothing was done during the 2 or so hours we were there.

Indian restaurants generally have vegetarian meals. Choices of paneer and other dhaals.

  • Prav Uppal

Absolutely awful food. It’s the same flavours in every dish. Overly spiced but without any flavour. The chilli chicken was bland, everything on the mixed grill tasted the same as everything else. The chilli paneer and mattar paneer were exactly the same. Same flavour, laced with spice. The chips were dry and crispy (I’ve never seen a chip that is only half full with potato) and the lassi was painful to drink. The staff were fantastic and they deserve to serve customers better food. Terrible culinary experience.

Have been wanting to come here for a long time and not bad at all apart from little burnt on some dishes and the naan bread. The place is very clean and upstairs not that many table and we went on a sat so do come earlier as it will get busy by 8pm... Service is good and the food is tasty and I had to get a takeaway korma for late night snack. One of my friend will come visit us from the US and we will take him here to show him the true curry in Leicester

You wouldn't even know this place was here. You could literally drive straight by! However, when you find it, the food is absolutely epic, and the service is very good too. If you love Indian Cuisine, then pay this little gem a visit! ❤️

I love this restaurant. I'm back in Leicester twice per year and this is where I always want to go! The food is great, the staff are warm and welcoming and even though I only get there twice per year they remember me and chat like no time has passed. Highly recommended to everyone who wants a wonderful meal and service.

I thoroughly enjoyed the food, it came on time with friendly driver. It was fresh and ticked the boxes. Big bold flavours, not greasy so I felt good after I ate it. Thank you melton restaurant. I will order again and recommend.

  • manoj lad

This should really be 0 stars, but I have to give 1 just to write a comment. Very disappointed with the booking management. Our group of 14 was double booked ruing our family reunion. Not very apologetic or accommodating to find a solution. If this ever happens to you, try the @indianqueen instead!

  • Srhya Lalh

Always consistent with their high food standards…central heating was busted but they had electric ones to compensate can’t complain about anything…always number 1 to take people out because we can guarantee the food will be great

Good quality food and decent portions. Friendly and helpful waitress. Room was a tad cold, sat next to a radiator to warm up but it was at the lowest setting possible. Can't blame them I suppose, price of heating and all that. More

  • Rajesh Patel

Good food reasonable price but as evening went on got cold because heating switched off which spoil the experience of a good meal with friends. Its winter and cold so restaurant temperature needs to be comfortable.

This a good restaurant. The food takes long to come, but unlike other restaurants, it’s freshly made. It’s great for kids and adults. All the food is at the same good quality. Definitely recommend this.

  • Chris Elwood

Top top quality. As good as any high end curry in terms of food. A homely vibe and a very friendly laid back atmosphere. Genuinely superb. I only wish it was closer to home!

  • Snehal Lakhani

Always a favorite for me when coming from abroad. Have the mixed grill and masala fish. Never disappoints. Excellent pricing and portions. Friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Nice food. Meat was a little dry compared to normal. Veg food was very nice. Cash only which meant a trip to the cash point after the meal - in the rain!
