The best restaurants serving Indian food in Selby Yorkshire and The Humber

On my birthday, we always go to Akbars in York as it's my favourite Indian restaurant outside of Bradford. I was disappointed to find it is closed and I really couldn't decide where else I wanted to go. Living in Sherburn In Elmet I've been to most of the Indian restaurants in this area, and while they are all OK, I have never been blown away by any of them. I stumbled upon Jahan Lounge just through doing a Google search on local Indian restaurants and thought I'd chance it, and thank God I did. The restaurant is tucked away in Scarthingwell Golf Club. There is ample parking too, which is handy. you need to go upstairs in the club building to get to the restaurant. The restaurant is tastefully presented with a nice ambience, and there is a good selection of drinks for all at the bar. The food is literally to die for. It is up there with the best curries I have ever had. I had lamb chops for starters, which were perfectly cooked and so tasty. For my main, I had a keema karahi, which wasn't on the menu, but when I asked, the waiter said, " No problem, sir, we can make that for you" The curry is what blew me away. It is probably in the top three meals I've ever had in my life. The chef here is at the top of their game. If you like a good curry, this is the place to go. I am so glad I have found Jahan lounge because I no longer need to drive all the way to Bradford anymore, I have found a hidden gem right on our doorstep.

collected food from here for the first time tonight & instantly felt a very warm welcoming, food was ready bang on time & got home with it still hot. plated it up and the food was great, good portions & tasted lovely. overall great staff & food, 100% recommend. & only 10 mins drive from my house, win win.

More of an upmarket Indian restaurant - tables not squashed in, plenty of privacy at your table. Staff always super friendly and go out of their way to be helpful. I had chingri dhai (medium king prawn curry) for main - superb! The nicest Indian restaurant for miles in my opinion. Would definitely recommend

Great food, tasty and hot (temp) delivery on time too.

Not sure why Trip Advisor still claiming this is the top Indian eatery in Tadcaster. It was closed when we went out of our way to visit and there was no sign of it re-opening

This place takes your takeout order online. When you go to pick up,the place isn’t open . You are then told to go to their other place, which is in Beverley. You are given an option to pay by card online or cash on pickup, always put CASH . Takes a long time to get money back for card. Payment!

Llegó aquí el sábado a la hora del té después de ser arrastrado junto con la multitud en York. Casi me pierdo el cruce para esto en la oscuridad de la A 64, ya que no hay señales iluminadas y no había luces en la A 64, donde era tan peligroso para los coches detrás, también con nosotros teniendo que romper de repente No hay mucho ambiente dentro y el personal no tenía una sonrisa entre ellos El pollo tikka fue el peor que he probado. ¡Vino en un plato, no en un plato chispeante y estaba todo arrugado junto a una ensalada! ¡Incluso los pocos pimientos y cebollas sabían extraños al lado! Debería haberlo devuelto realmente, ya que estaba tan seco y no venía con un lado de salsa de verduras como la mayoría de los lugares. Las otras comidas estaban bien Lo único que disfrutamos fueron los poppadoms ¡Evita!

Always had lovely meals here. Delivery and eating in best Indian i have been to. Baji’s are to die for. Such a shame that they have closed down. Going to miss them so much!

Takeaway last night 14/12/24.Never again it was absolute garbage.The place should be shut down.Royal Curry had the most vile lamb chops and chicken on the planet.

Absolutely disgusting service! Got our big order wrong when delivered after we spent £90 and were rude and argumentative on phone. Food was disgusting never again! Spent a lot of money with these over past couple of years but won’t go again! The prawn bhuna came as a prawn puree and just tasted like water! The butter chicken had three pieces of fatty chicken in and rest was sauce! We ordered a king prawn tikka massala and got a chicken balti which was vile! The best part of all six dishes was the popadoms!

Worst takeaway ever had in my life wrong order, presentation was shocking both curries tasted of tomatoe…. When I called up was answered by rude man with Asian dialect who could not speak English correctly Never again. Absolutely disgraceful for the money
