The best restaurants serving Indian food in Northumberland North East

This is the third time visiting Dhamaka for a sit in meal and it did not disappoint yet again! We both tried different options to our usual and were both very impressed. The staff definitely know there stuff, recommending a dish for my husband based on his usual and he loved it. I had the Bengal butter chicken dish which is in Abduls special dishes and it was so full of flavour with just a hint of spice. Service yet again exceptional, the staff go above and beyond to make sure you have a lovely meal. We would 100% recommend!!

Fantastic time and great food thanks to staff for great time Christmas day

Food is very nice, as its an old building it struggled to keep warm on recent cold snap.

Fantastic staff and lovely food at a great price many thanks

We've been going for years, the food is excellent and the staff are super friendly 👌 😀 Best in the area!

The Taj Tandoori is a gem. Brilliant staff and great value for money with great attention to detail 😌😌😮‍💨

Perfect tandoori takeaway. Authentic dopiaza, food delivered piping hot and really friendly driver/staff on the phone. Will be recommending to all, felt like restaurant quality food. Thanks!

First time in tonight for my birthday. Food was amazing staff were great cant wait to come back.

Another superb meal tonight at Amaree, we have had over 20yrs of custom here. Tonight, our meal was amazing as ever. Loved our chats between meals with Irfan who entertained us throughout. We cannot go elsewhere to compare to this high standard of quality of food, service and locality.

Our first visit and a local recommendation. Yes it was a Saturday night and it was busy but sadly, as we had a taxi booked, our meal took so long to arrive, we had to rush it. The food was great it’s just a shame we couldn’t fully enjoy it. We allowed a good hour and 45 mins and only had a popadom plate to start then a main course, we felt this was sufficient time. Food was good enough to go back, hopefully on a quieter night when we can fully appreciate it.

Visited as we’d received a recommendation and were going to theatre nearby. First impressions were excellent, stylishly kitted out and a warm welcome from the staff….then it got even better! Lovely menu (lots of slightly different options too) and when the food arrived it was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. We really can’t fault anything….and we’re pretty picky! I had the honey chicken and it was so so tasty. The portions sizes are very generous too. The service was excellent and the prices very reasonable indeed. I really hope this restaurant thrives as they’ve thought of everything and deserves to do well. We’ll definitely come back when we’re next in the area. Thank you for a superb meal

Gorgeous family meal atmosphere and service friendly & welcoming 2nd visit highly recommend . Great value for money nothing to much
