Bangla - North Down

The restaurant could have been better. The pros were that the food was good, but the cons included terrible service. The waiters were not attentive and I had to ask three times to pay the bill, which took almost 20 minutes in the end, despite the restaurant being only half full.

Food was quite poor unfortunately. It was pretty dead mid-week but really that should’ve meant better service. Premium prices suggest food should’ve been better quality but it didn’t even meet the taste of a cheap and cheerful Indian.

As a Curry conessuir hailing from Birmingham I was delighted to stumble across this Gem in Bangor a couple of weeks back. We recieved a warm greeting and was shown to our seats. I noted the place was spotlessly clean with gleaming glass and tableware. A pleasant volume of Indian music was playing. And the decor although garish added to the expierience and authenticity. Our drinks orders taken within seconds poppadoms arrived. I perused the Menu. Slightly disappointed that some of the hotter variants that are found around Birmingham Chicken tikka Tawa) were not on the menu, I was delighted to see my favourite starter King prawn bhuna on puri which arrived cooked to perfection and bursting with flavour. For main I settled for Chicken tikka massage with Pilau rice and a Peshawari naan. I have to say it was heavenly. The portion was huge but I ate it all because to waste any would be a crime. I left, feeling stuffed and extremely satisfied.

The order arrived early and the food quality was very nice however unfortunately the order was incorrect which was very disappointing.

Monday to Thursday set meal price is good value for tasty food A regular haunt.
