Milan Indian Cuisine

Great Food, Great Service & Great Value! First family visit to this edge of city centre restaurant and we were not disappointed. As we were staying in town for one night only and Indian food was on the menu, we took our time to research all the nearby options. Not only was the menu at Milan the most familiar (with all the classic dishes we expect from a good Indian), the online reviews were also very promising not to mention the prices. On arrival we were warmly greeted by Nico who offered us different table options, which was really appreciated. Drinks orders followed swiftly and we perused the extensive menu. We were then given some very helpful advice on the main course options by the lovely Bosco, who ensured Chef tweaked our dishes according to our requests. Our starters (Milan mixed grill) arrived hot, sizzling and fresh and the mains (lamb saag, lamb rogan Josh & chicken korma) exceeded our expectation, all served with very generous rice portions and naan bread. Whilst the food alone would be reason enough to return, great service and warmth really do elevate any dining experience. Whether you are local or visiting, be sure to visit Milan Indian Cuisine at the next opportunity!

Really nice place for a dinner. The staff is very friendly and have perfect manners. The place has a great atmosphere and is spacious. The dishes are great even tho we found the chicken slightly dry. The paneer was excellent. I took a mocktail and was a bit disappointed. It tasted just like juice and nothing more. Overall, great experience, great value for your money. An ideal place if you are searching for a friendly place where to eat for a reasonable price ( appetizers, mocktail, mains and dessert for less than 50£ for 2people) Thank you Milan staff 😊

The Curryholic

It has been around 30 years since I last visited this restaurant. It's just that I don't go down this end of Newhall St very often, and then not usually on a Friday night when we tend to go out for a curry. It has always had a good reputation and obviously changed over the years, I suspect for the better judging by our experience. The food and service was excellent. What was particularly pleasing was the very friendly Abdul's knowledge of the menu. Indian dishes can be distinctly different from your more common Bangladeshi restaurants and it's therefore worth checking how they prepare the dishes. Indian food is usually bespoke to the chef and the dishes are typically noticeably different from each other. A bit of knowledgeable advice from your waiter helps avoid any potential disappointment. I was really pleased that Abdul nailed the choice for me. Likewise he assisted the wife with the details of her salmon dish which she thoroughly enjoyed. Furthermore the pilau rice was superb with none of the all too common red or green food colouring. There was nothing wrong with the onion bhaji starter or the garlic naan either. Even the dips with the poppadoms were better than your usual. The kulfi dessert was also better than the "daleks" you normally get offered. More traditional desserts are also available. Overall a great night, far more relaxed and also a bit cheaper when compared to similar restaurants in the town centre. Well worth checking out and the short walk down Newhall St.
