Taste Of Bengal - Wigan

We ate here with friends last night, for the first time in about 11 years. Must say the food was indeed very good and we had a great evening for sure. The mixed Tawa was excellent, as were the mixed starters too. Well done to Ali, Horque and the team, see you again soon.

We have been going here for 20 years. Not every week but on and off. The meal tonight was really disappointing. The guy on the phone was abrupt, telling us that he wasn’t going to write side dishes down first in a curt manner. Does that really matter??? The saag paneer was awful, tomatoey, spicy and hardly any spinach in it. The naan bread was hard and burnt around the edges, the korma had 6 king prawns in and was sloppy and tasteless. Won’t be going again which is a shame.

We have been to this restaurant now several times and my parents have been a couple of times and honestly I could not fault this place once. The staff are impeccable. Inam and Hawk especially, they could not do enough. From start to finish every time in interacting and recommending dishes and being attentive with ordering food and just general conversation honestly each visit has just been impecable. The food is incredible, the starters we have had are the lamb chops, chicken wings, fish and chicken pakora and different bhuna, tikka, biriyana dishes and all have been excellent. I have a nut allergy so have to be especially careful and they have a section in the back of the menu with a key that indicates every allergy which is really good. We can’t wait to go back again. Thanks so much again!!

Ordered a takeaway at 6pm to arrive at 7pm. Phoned the restaurant at 7.20pm to find out where the order was, they said they were very busy and it would be another 15-20mins. 40 mins later, still no food. A whole 2 hours since the order was placed, no food. Don’t bothered ordering a takeaway to be delivered!

Some of the best south Asian food I've ever eaten! You can tell it was cooked with love. And really pleasant service with a personal touch without being over bearing. I couldn't recommend this place enough.
