Great service. Fabulous food. Plus they're offering 15% discount at the moment so even though their prices are very reasonable, our meal was even cheaper. I asked for something not on their dine in memo but they were happy to provide it. And it was scrumptious. Highly recommend this establishment.

I booked for 7pm on a Tuesday, very quiet night at Bollywood with only 2 other tables (or booths as we had) but quite a few takeaways going out the door. We were seated promptly and given water and menus by the friendly (Indian?) waitress who agreed with us that sharing a main meal of Chef Special Chicken with rice and naan bread would be sufficient. The meal was delicious and we were given warmed plates to serve the food onto. Had a nice surprise on the way out to receive 15% "Winter discount" too. Overall, a very nice meal served by friendly and helpful staff - top marks Bollywood!

Attentive staff. Our waiter was great. He really knew the menu, giving the background to dishes ordered. Food was delicious, friendly laid back atmosphere. Thank you so much.

A lovely atmosphere, with very attentive staff, we thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience here. Our toddler wasn't happy at one stage, so a staff member came over with colouring pencils and a colouring book. The food was delicious and service was quick. We'll be back!

Absolutely delicious.
First time I've been to this restaurant since they've moved.
Service is great and food is tasty.

Love this place. Only reason I didn't give a 5 was because there were the chicken bones in the curry. Other indian restaurant's don't do that. The food was beautiful otherwise

Delicious food although pricey. Service was incredibly slow but they apologized at the end and gave the kids free ice cream. Overall a nice experience.

We were so glad you were closed! Having limited time - and my wife having grown up with Bollywood - we made certain to check the online listing to ensure it was open...but in reality they fumbled the very most basic thing a restaurant could do - posting the hours. We found a delightful pub instead.

Tried the new location, and overall fairly average. Didn't find the curry anything special, and the Onion Bhaji was more like western onion rings, and very grecy. Won't be going back in a rush.

Best Indian we have had. The food was absolutely amazing. The service was extremely friendly and welcoming. Ate at Napier and the restaurant was warm and cosy. All in all it is actually the stand out dining experience we've had. Can not overstate how much we enjoyed the meal. 10/10!

So I was bribed to change my 1 star review to a 5 star, and was promised a refund on my meal - and then the refund never came I kept getting told "I just need to check how to do it" and never reveived the money.
Would give 0 stars if possible.

Long story short, my butter chicken was simply inedible. It tasted like tomato soup and pumpkin soup mixed together, with 3 pieces of chicken.
I honestly couldn't even eat one spoonful.

The lady came again to drop off correct drinks and take the meal (but once she arrived she said she didn't need to) and then her manager rang me and told me I didn't give her the meal because it was eaten (which it wasn't, I literally tried to give it to her).

9 phone calls later and the situation was even more confusing and messed up.

In conclusion, the worst food and even worse customer service.
Would not recommend.
Would give 0 stars if possible.

Wasn't very impressed with the service...
Long wait for food...would have been nice if they serve something light e.g papadum on the house while waiting for main course...
Takeaway's were going out first ..while we sat and waited for our food....
We were party of 5 people monday night for our wedding anniversary dinner...
Food was yummy though so was masala tea...and shakes....
Wasn't impressed...hope your service improves....

The staff at Bollywood Stars go above and beyond! My brother ordered from here as a birthday surprise for me and the delivery guy sung me happy birthday and then shared a video of everyone at the restaurant singing me happy birthday as well. On top of that, the food was delicious! Thank you for an all round great experience ??'?

Ordered online for pick, but still had to wait 15 mins for the food.
Bit disappointed that the butter chicken only had 8 small pieces of chicken in it.
