saffron club on glossop road.

very, very good contemporary menu for starters and mains, but their gulab jamen were rubbish.

even my dad who is a food snob was very impressed with the rest of the meal.

Not quite city centre, but Butlers Balti House on Broad Lane.

I'll leave someone else to do the "this has been discussed several times before" link.

Any recommendations for a good Indian restaurant in Sheffield city centre / West St area?

Get yourself to the Mangla on Spital Hill, just through Wicker, Up the Hill on the Left, not quite City Centre, but a class little establishment, get there ealry as it is packed within no time, 7 days per week without fail.

Alternatively if it has to be Sheffield City Centre, Butlers just off the University Roundabout, up from Glossop Road is mint as well.

MANGLA FOREVER!!!

Enjoy you meal!!

I agree about Cafe Guru food, but has anyone noticed the service is a bit pants? Every time I've been we've waited ages for a menu to arrive and to be asked if we want drinks. Bloomin marvellous food though!

Is the Mangla near to the Kashmir? Is it the same sort of place?

Definately would suggest Cafe Guru, it's one of the few restaurants of any sort in Sheffield where they seem to know how to serve and present food in a professional way.

Maybe this is because all their serving staff appear to be foreign. I guess it is a cultural thing but I still find that most English waiting staff are totally clueless.

Butlers Balti for me!! Went to Everest on Chesterfield rd for a change once and it wasn't as good! Sometimes take away is better... Curry Tonight is delivery only and is gorgeous :)

For example my bill at Cafe Guru should have been £60 the last time I went but I paid £40.

You get a card to show the owners and you need to book stating you are a Hi-life member. Each establishment has a number that should be crossed off the back of the card once you have gained a discount from them (i.e. its only valid for 1 visit). However, I have never had a number crossed off my card

:hihi: :hihi:

Billsmother - Yes mate the grub is authentic, cheap and very tasty mate. It has been recently done up imside, but the bustling of the open kitchen makes it stand out.
Like I have mentioned many a time, you can queue to get a seat after 1900hrs. The place is friendly and suitable for a family meal as well.

Get yourself up there son!!

What's Kashmir like these days? Long time since I have ventured through their doors?

RE: Cafe Guru. Do they do madras? It doesn't say so on the menu, but surely if they're a good Indian restaurant they should do madras!

EDIT: Sorry, I meant Vindaloo, not madras.

correction, 3 students not 4

Anywhere but Nirmals, absolute rip-off. £85 it cost us for 4 students!! we got popodums without asking at start and get chardged like £8 for them with pickle tray, we ask them to bring us a dessert, they bring 3 disguised as 1. orange juice was £3. couldnt believe the price!!

Yeah, you have to be careful when you go to Nirmals. The food is really nice, but if you've had a few beers that lady who runs it will recommend anything thats expensive.

Few times i've been in there with a few of the lads and always feel like we've been ripped off. Still, it's one of the best curry houses in town.
