A great Indian restaurant in the heart of Leicester, right around the corner from the Curve theatre. The food has been great every time I have been here and so has the staff and owner, who is always happy to have a chat with customers.

Indian restaurant in the heart of Leicester. The food & service was very good. Restaurant & Bar šŗ. Toilets at the floor below ground. There is no lift so toilets are not accessible for disabled people and wheelchair users. Plenty of sitting arrangements inside & outside. Nicely decorated. This restaurant has won many awards in their excellence and taste of thier food. Parking is paid in the multi storey across the road. Parking is discounted at this restaurant which is a bonus.

Under-rated. The pre-theatre menu is excellent for those wanting to eat before the curve shows. Beer and drinks very good. Bottomless poppadoms also available. Quick service and very friendly place. Beautiful dining room with white clean linen. The theatre menu has a wonderful starter plate with excellent Indian fish among other deep fried delights! š

Fantastic food. Great sized portions and a great experience. Staff were welcoming and good at their jobs!

Thank you to all at The Chutney Ivy we had a superb meal at your restaurant a few weeks ago the quality of the prawns were outstanding. The atmosphere was lovely and we didnāt feel rushed. We had a great time celebrating my birthday & our baby on the way with you. Thank you again.

Service 10/10 right from we stepped in, decent food with quick service. Beautiful fine dine experience . They gave parking ticket discount in last which was good gesture.

Good service and excellent quality. Sea bass was very well made. Recommend. If you park at the ncp, eligible for discount from the restaurant.

Robert Manners
The food was great, second only to the fabulous service! We were recommended some great food to try and also enjoyed some impressive Espresso Martini's. We will definitely be recommending and returning!
Sharon Corrigan
The service was good and the staff were very friendly although unimpressed when asked for a take out box for the leftover food.
We opted for the set menu Ā£34.95 per head... which we did feel was slightly overpriced. We were here for our sons graduation and they gave us free cake which was lovely...and a shot of our choice at the end of the evening which was great
Louis Lonsdale
Lovely staff and the food is really good, felt especially catered for

Loved the food here and the menu has choices.for everyone - those less adventurous who want a more English curry to those who prefer something a little more traditional. Lovely birthday cakes appeared for one of our group. Relaxed and inviting atmosphere.
Paul Robert Humberston
Myself & Partner have dined here for 5 years and adore the food , the way they give you a delicious variety of classic Indian favourites is great as sometimes Indian menuās can confuse us , beautiful interior design and the service is fantastic, , the staff use the term Sir/Madam & made a point of shaking our hand on leaving which is a lovely touch , absolutely recommend ļæ½

Poor service, rude staff with no manners, and to top it off I was served raw chicken, which I was informed 'it's because we are the only restaurant in Leicestershire that doesn't use food colouring so you don't normally see it?!' The chicken was pink, disgusting. I have no idea how this place got voted best restaurant 2017. Much nicer, friendly and well presented Indian restaurants in Leicestershire that serve properly cooked appetising food.

We went on a Groupon voucher and the food was plentiful - the pickle tray and starters were very good and tasty but the main meal was very disappointing- rice stodgy and the curry and curried vegetables spicy but bland - to top it off was the service charge added to the bill at the end- after querying this it was removed as you are not obliged to pay it- the atmosphere was great but the food let it down so doubt if we would return or recommend to others.
Sam Spencer
Excellent service, amazing food and the prices were more than reasonable, we used a groupon and it was well worth it. Wonderful atmosphere and also brilliant waiting staff. I would highly recommend this place! What a lovely experience. āŗ

Initial mix-up over pre-theatre menu - after being served drinks & the pickles & popadoms told not available for a single person. So I misread the menu but the waiter should have pointed this out. Chose from the A la Carte only to be told it would take too long to be cooked prior to the theatre. What an hour & an half to cook a curry!! Manager apologised & his excuse was the waiter was new - my food would be served on time. The Duck Samosas were stale - as though they had been reheated from the day before. Nothing special about the chicken curry although it did have a bite. Please explain why a knife & fork is laid to eat curry. Have you ever seen an Indian eat with a knife & fork? I was very disappointed considering meant to have been voted a top restaurant.
Denise Elliott
Food was very good, well presented and very tasty. Each dish had its own flavor and and was plentiful.
The only thing that let this place down was having to wait 30 minutes to be seated when we had booked a table for 7pm and seated at 7.35pm when there were a few tables empty.
We went on a groupon voucher and it was excellent value for money.
We will defiantly be going back.
Nim Ravalia
Thank you to Shaf and all the staff for a fantastic night celebrating my daughters 21st. Food was outstanding, staff were very friendly and accommodating to ensure a smooth evening. Yaya was very helpful and very entertaining with his dsnce moves. Would definitely recommend this place.
Fiona Washington
Always fabulous food , fantastic staff and a very warm genuine welcome on arrival . Shaf and his team are great and Imwould highly recommend Chutney Ivy , it's the best .
Sharon Bratton
What a lovely evening we had last night - we went for the pre theatre package and what a treat it was too, the staff were excellent - we will definitely be back and highly recommend - thank you
Poonam Patel
Food portions are made for children and prices are ridiculous!!!! Food is also tasteless and bland!! Service was awful, we decided to leave after the starters as the food was shocking and were told we should have informed them over the phone when booking the table?! Well if the food wasnāt awful we would have had mains but just thought it was rude to question that couldnāt even apologise when we said the food was awful!! Also never had the most expensive poppadoms in my life Ā£21!! For 12 but couldnāt even tell if there was 12 as they were broken in pieces most weāve ever paid is Ā£1 or they are complimentary. There are way more better restaurants in Leicester to eat which are better in taste and wonāt cost you your mortgage!! Never going back and wouldnāt even wish my worst enemy to come here!! Awful!
Rachel Woolley
Such a wonderful restaurant. The manager couldnāt be more helpful with the menu and really knew his stuff. The restaurant has a lavish feel to it which is also reflected in the quality of the delicious food.
Nothing was too much trouble including cups of tea to warm us up before we ate on a night that was -6!
We will be returning. Many thanks ļæ½
Marija Vranic Besevic
Amazing food lovely restaurant will definitely go back! The only criticism is that I ordered king prawns with no coriander and the waiter decided that I wouldnāt like the chilli either, if I didnāt want chilli I would of said!
Louise Walker
Had a thoroughly enjoyable evening here yesterday to celebrate our nieceās Masters graduation. The ambience was warm, the staff were attentive and friendly and the food was exceptional. Easy to see why they won Best Indian in Leicester 2017
Lorraine Reid
The service was appalling. Staff more interested in selling extortionate priced drinks than serving your meal. I would not recommend ļæ½

Thankyou to chutney ivy for a great evening out. Food was great and the owner was really lovely and friendly. We'll be back soon
Taran Chana Ashan
I have given it 4* for the atmosphere and polite and friendly service. However the food was quite disappointing, flavourless, lacked taste and was quite average. Shame as it is such a nice place otherwise. May not go backļæ½
Liz Buswell
Not usual standard, I would say avoid the post theatre menu absolute rubbish bland expensive slop, unlucky 13 on our table, not even a poppadum each, 2 bits of starter. I would advise stick to the a la carte menu. Very disappointed ļæ½
Robert Day
Just superb .... food excellent, staff attentive and of course a lovely atmosphere overall (biased there a bit - another brilliant Blueprint design and fit-out!)
Shaf and team - thanks for looking after our family and friends again this evening - perfect ļæ½

Donata Marshall
I held a charity fundraising event for 50 friends and family at Chutney Ivy restaurant in the private function room yesterday evening which raised Ā£922 . It was a great success for a number of reasons the food was plentiful with lots of variety and very tasty dishes, catering for all tastes. The service was excellent and Mr Shaf has been so helpful and generous throughout the lead up to and including the event itself. A great night was had by all and I have received lots of messages today complementing the restaurant.Thank you Chutney Ivy ļæ½

Great set up.
Suzanne Warren-Houlihan
Absolutely fabulous party venue and restaurant.
The team at Chutney Ivy were so helpful when we had our party there.
Everything we needed was catered for before and on the day.
The room creates a great atmosphere whether its a small gathering or a big party.
My friend booked the venue for a party straight after the one we had.
Thanks to all at Chutney Ivy. Hope to see you all again soon.
