Food was excellent and came out very quickly. Atmosphere in the restaurant was great. Only slight issue was that it was very busy so the staff weren’t readily availible to provide further assistance.

Service great, Food great. But - Table for 8 was available when we arrived but was at the back of the restaurant and we had to slide in and out to get to the loo. I booked a month ahead so expected a better table.

Excellent food, highly recommend the chicken chettinadu. Service a little hit and miss - friendly, but busy Friday night and we were sat right in the back corner of the restaurant so quite difficult to get anyone's attention. From being seated to getting main course was around 45 minutes, and had to ask twice for a few things.

Lovely restaurant with relaxed atmosphere in the heart of Clifton. Very good food with unusual flavours presented in a modern way - not your average Indian. Not cheap but worth it for a good evening out. Knowledgeable friendly staff. Looking forward to going again.

Excellent meal from the fixed menu. Just the right amount of food in total and a great range of flavors. Perfect amount of spice to appreciate the taste and not overpower the palate.

I booked a table for 10 initially and extended it to 16 with no issues. Staff looked after us brilliantly and the food was a hit all around. My friend and I were celebrating a joint birthday and enjoyed the tasting menu and complimentary glasses of bubbly (really lovely, whatever it was). After sampling a little bit of some of the other dishes too, I can’t wait to return. Thoroughly recommend Nutmeg for a beautifully executed Indian meal in a relaxed and friendly environment. Oh, and we saw 3D from Massive Attack in there as another bonus!

Food is always amazing when we come here can not fault that and who I believe was the manager that evening was very helpful and attentive but our actual waitress who was assigned to our table was obviously new, she forgot to take my food order before she left after taking everyone else’s and after a guest at our table had finished his starter, she picked up his clean forks and left his dirty ones and went on to express that he hadused the wrong cutlery, so it appeared she was going to leave him with dirty cutlery to go into his main with until my partner made a point that she bring fresh cutlery over.

Stunning food, lovely atmosphere, great location. Particularly recommend the biryani dishes. The King prawn biryani was superb - juicy prawns and flavoursome rice cooked in its own pot with a sealed crust. Yum!

always a good vibe in this popular restaurant. slightly disappointed with the samosas, the filling was excellent but the casing a bit too 'doughy' for my taste. my main course, the king prawns from the chef specials was superb.

The waitress was incredibly knowledgeable on the menu and very enthusiastic. The food was delicious and a lot lighter than most curry houses so you dont leave feeling too heavy and full. The only issue was that the waitress had recommended two dishes for my friends based on what type of curry they usually prefer, but when the food came the waiter who put the food down wasnt sure which was which so they ended up eating the wrong meals. About 10 minutes later the original waitress corrected the mistake which was fine. We will all definitely be going back!

Stomach issues. Excellent food but two people in our party were poorly within hours of eating. We had not been with these people before that night so seems unlikely that it was a coincidence but you never know. Restaurant was thorough in their response but could find no issues.

Overall a lovely restaurant and really food delicious. Unfortunately the service was slowish and we were sat at a table in the back of the restaurant where it felt crammed in to enable as many customers as possible to be seated into the space (our table was squashed in in front of a door that was accessed several time during our meal) resulting in it being very very noisy.
