Lovely food and attentive staff. They help you decide what dish to have if you're not sure and they look after you well. What more could you ask for ? :)

Good food and interesting location, combined with attentive service. The vegetable biriani, chicken dhansak and butter chicken, which our party ordered, were nicely cooked and flavoursome. Our only gripe was that there was a problem with the drinks fridge so no chilled bottles of beer were available.

Our first visit to the Basmati, chosen as a convenient stop-over location for exchanging Christmas presents with family who could not be with us on the day. Great food and excellent friendly service in an interesting setting. Would definitely recommend

Excellent food and charmingly served. We were on holiday in the area but, if we lived closer, we would go there all the time. Well pleased.

We were early, so the restaurant was very quiet. We were served quickly and efficiently. The food was delicious and well-presented.. It was a cold night, so perhaps the restaurant could have been a little warmer to welcome diners.

The food and surroundings are very good, and the service generally quite good also. It was just that they were not ready when we arrived.

Wonderful menu, great service & lovely cellar setting. No phone signal which we think is great, everyone is talking to each other. We will certainly be back :-)

First time visit, expected to be quiet on a mid week evening, but surprisingly busy which suggests consistent quality. Quirky, charming venue in a beautiful period building. Very courteous welcome, good service throughout the meal, food hot and tasty.

First visit here and what a find. Lovely waft of spice greets you as you open the front door, miserable wet and cold evening outside and immediately begin to feel better as you go down the stairs. much larger menu than I had expected, not always a good sign, but some really different sounding dishes. I played safe with a Jalfrezi, and the other half had a chicken with tamarind. both absolutely delicious and the Tarka Dall was just superb. Starters were probably unnecessary as portions are generous. Good service, pleasant ambience and atmosphere, tables not too tightly packed, just an excellent evening. definitely coming back.

Reliably good food and friendly service. More green vegetable dishes on the menu would be welcome. Unfortunately we were too full to have any dessert.

Lovely food and great service - had the chicken jalfrezi which had just the right amount of chilies. Being in the cellar is cool too.

There is no other Indian like this one. The food is as uncoloured and natural as possible. The flavours amazing. Instead of sticking to 2 types of food I am working my way through the menu. We just love this place and the staff are excellent. It is a bit of a hidden gem.
