I was staying in Shepton Mallet for a few days and happened upon this place. Got lucky I think when we walked in. Table for 2? No problem. The mark of a good curry house for me is the pops and chutneys, and how quickly they get a drink on your table. Answer: super quick. And the pops/chutneys were superb. Granted, they’re not difficult, but some places do somehow manage to mess it up. Service wasn’t “overly” friendly (which is a good thing), but friendly enough, fast, attentive and straightforward. I’m a stickler for a good veg samosa, and these hit the spot. Delicious. For main, I had the mixed grill and I have to say, quite possibly the best mixed grill I’ve ever had. Tender lamb, beautifully cooked chicken on and off the bone, onions and peppers still had a bit of crunch and not incinerated. Daal masala on the side; equally good. If I ever find myself in that neck of the woods again, I’ll be making a bee line for the Mughal. Thanks guys!!

A short walk from a hotel we stayed at. We arrived, and were seated straight away. Given time to choose from the extensive choice of menu. The staff were attentive, quick, and polite. The food was absolutely delicious and very much enjoyed by both. We ordered two curries, both were as nice as the other. We shared chips, rice, naan bread and samosas. All of which were tasty and cooked perfectly. The chicken was tender. A birthday cake candle set the smoke alarms off but staff were quick to act and reassure everyone that actually it was just smoke from the birthday candle. We carried on enjoying our meal with very little disturbance. Cobra Indian larger went down a treat. Reasonably priced and very much enjoyed.

UPDATE...dine-in service has been suspended. Fantastic menu choices, plenty of vegetarian options and great value too. Have friends who drive from Wells just for a takeaway, which tells you exactly how good the food is. Eating in is an enjoyable experience too. Have always found the staff to be friendly, polite and professional.

After the first time that I came to this restaurant,the food was so good I had dreams about it. The second time, the food was absolutely as good, the third time, I feel compelled to write a review. Genuinely, the best Indian food that I have eaten; worth traveling to experience. (Plus, excellent service)

Amazing food! Best Indian cuisine I’ve ever had in my life and I lived with Indian people for few years who always shared food. I didn’t take any photos because we were very hungry :) but meat and sauce perfectly spicy, hot and soft, I couldn’t believe it’s so yummy OMG. Very nice atmosphere, waiter very polite and attentive, we had a nice chat at the end. I honestly recommend this place, you’re gonna enjoy it till the last bite :)
