Dastaan

Delicious food and good service but ambience could have been better.

For Starters, we had the Dahi Puri Chaat (excellent, highly recommend) and Chicken Lollipop (nice and flavourful, but a little dry).

For Mains, had Butter Naan with Lamb Rogan Josh and Malai Chicken Kebab, all of which were delicious. Butter Naans were excellent, the lamb cooked very very well and the Malai Chicken Kebab was cooked to perfection although the portion size could have been better.

Also tried the Carrot Halwa for Dessert which was quite nice, and not too sweet.

Highly recommend; will definitely return.

Ambience could have been better . The restaurant is nice but the overall ambience was disturbed by some drunken guests who should have been better controlled by the restaurant staff (rather than encouraging the behaviour).

Our favourite local place to eat! The menu is varied and has a few more unusual takes on dishes. Service is always friendly, but these days it’s definitely recommended to book ahead as they are VERY busy, which tells you a lot about how good this place is !

Two Michelin stars, each one totally earned.

Dastaan is an absolute culinary treat. This is by far the best Indian restaurant I've been to.

The food is on another level. Its unlike any other Indian food I've had. From the freshly baked, uniquely flavoured Poppadoms, naans and paratha, to the incredibly tasty rogan josh and buttered chicken, every dish on our table was a delight. Even the pulao rice tastes fantastic on its own.

I'd highly recommend the DahiPuri and assorted Poppadom basket as starts, with an absolutely fantastic butter chicken to follow, rounded off with either the gulab jamun or pistachio kulfi for dessert.

Beyond the food, the staff are terrific, very warm and welcoming, and the restaurant is spotless.

If good Indian food is your thing, you need to make your way to Dastaan.

One of the most delicious Indian starters I have ever had. Main course was also good but would prefer starters and desserts over main course. Definitely visiting again!

Amazing food, 4 stars because of the space. But the service and the food is fabulous. We were 4 adults ad we had 4 starters with 3 drinks and 2 main course curries. We paid only £99.

Will definitely go again but on odd days and timings because the space is very congested.

Fantastic lunch as Dastaan. Every dish was great. Highly recommend the grilled meats and the vegetarian biriyani. But everything we tried was great. Watch out for spice if you have young kids with you 😂 but the staff were great in quickly sorting us out with some plain rice and yoghurt! Can't wait to visit again.

Quality Indian food, packed with flavour. It’s not the oily, 1-taste-for-every-dish kind of place. In my opinion, their chef is actually a chef and is thinking about each dish. Worth the money, even though a little on the expensive side for what I am used to. Lovely friendly staff who are very accommodating and put you at ease. I will definitely go again for a special occasion.

This is a fantastic place. The food is very authentic Indian and the Chef and staff are wonderful. I see why have won so many awards. Nothing can stop the smiles on my face after seeing the team work together and making sure every single customer is happy. The happiness was floating all around the restaurant.

The attention to detail by the Chef and the staff is great. They make sure everyone leaves satisfied.

There is a good range of vegetarian and non-vegetarian food available. All of them made to order and with detail and attention.

We were sat right opposite the kitchen and it was such a joy watching them all working in harmony. The Chef smiling and making sure the team was comfortable all the time. This then radiated to the customers as the staff were happy.

All in all a great family friendly restaurant with very authentic Indian food.
