During my visit to the Lake District, I had the pleasure of dining at this charming restaurant with my wife. From the moment we stepped inside, we were captivated by the delightful ambiance it offered. The staff was incredibly warm, courteous, and truly professional, ensuring that every aspect of our experience was taken care of.
But it was the food that truly left me in surprise. The flavors were simply outstanding, so much so that even now, the taste lingers on my tongue. The delicious dishes kept beckoning me back, and I found myself returning to this restaurant for dinner every evening throughout my stay in the Lake District.
I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant if you're looking to make your dinner truly memorable. The combination of the wonderful environment, the friendly and skilled staff, and the delectable food creates an experience that you wouldn't want to miss.
On a short stay in Ambleside and the Lake District with my two boys. After a long day trekking, we were craving for some curry. With the only indian food place around and the mixed reviews, we were a bit reluctant at first. Our concerns were put to rest moment we walked in, got seated with no booking or waiting around, decent atmosphere, decent food, great presentation and contrary to some reviews, great service!. Feel a little politeness, both ways, goes long way.. the tarka dhal and tikka biryani hit the spot.. the boys loved it!
Absolutely no idea why there's negative reviews for ishaas, it made me almost have second thoughts about coming. So glad we went though, wonderful food, beautifully presented, fresh ingredients and great service. The king prawns are corkers! And I've never been anywhere that's able to give paneer such flavour too. Yum! Think of your regular high street Indian, but with better quality ingredients, more attention to detail, more specialities and just generally a cut above the norm.The place was packed - one of my favourite Indians in the UK.
Great food, just don't ask them to call you a taxi. Firm that they use ripped us off £22 for a £8 fare. Not the restaurants fault, but call your own taxi. Food and service is first class.
My first time here so I had some trepidation. Totally needless as the experience was excellent! The service was first class, the food was well presented and the quality was superb. I definitely recommend this establishment. Good value for the outlay. Well done Ishaas Indian Eatery.
Fine food, can't say the best Indian I ever tried. My husband had chicken tikka and I find the colour is a bit of too much of red colour... Otherwise, fine place, good service, there is a good choice of beer (including kingfisher)
We come to the lakes every 3-4 months and every time we go to ishaas. The food and service are the best you can get anywhere. Nothing is too much trouble and we never have a bad meal.
Booked a table for two on Saturday. Table was about 5/10 mins delayed so we were sat down and given a complimentary pint of Cobra each.
Really impressed with the food and the service here. There was a huge stag do taking up most of the restaurant but we were still well looked after and served well.
100% recommend and we will be back.
After a 9 hour mountain day, we thought "I really fancy beer and a curry", so we looked up Indian restaurants in Ambleside. The interior feels clean and modern and it was busy but they had a table for us with no reservation. We started with the best tasting pint of Cobra ever and ordered starters and mains. All the food was really good with distinct flavours and the waiter bringing the food was really good at his job. Will definitely be back when we are in Ambleside again.
Great food. We really enjoyed our family meal at Ishaas. The food was great and very tasty.
Great customer service. We were really impressed! Having booked a table, we received a phone call half an hour earlier letting us know that the table was ready in case we wanted to go a bit earlier.
Tables were well spaced out to observe COVID regulations.
Would definitely come back again!
