The Silk Route - Preston

We made a reservation for six people. The food was amazing and the staff was lovely. They were very accommodating. We ordered appetizers and main courses and the portions were generous. The prices were very affordable. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Very average Indian food. A little bland and tasteless. I’d say more westernised, rather than authentic. The chicken dish was described as marinated and charcoal grilled, but seemed boiled. The bhajis and samosas were tiny. The Spinach feta naan, was just a roti with feta sprinkled on top. Very few vegetarian options. There are far better Indian restaurants nearby.

The staff at this restaurant are very nice and friendly, and the food is delicious. I have been here three times now and I will definitely be returning. The only issue I encountered was that there was no hand wash in the restroom dispenser, so I tried to use the hand gels but they were also empty. However, this did not detract from the overall experience. I would recommend this place for a good meal.

A fantastic visit tonight, with the food kindly delivered to the table with impeccable service. Firecracker chicken fave as always and then Bengal Handi which was delicious. Thanks again! Spaces available for the Ed Sheeran night on Fri 1st Dec just ring the restaurant to book will be a perfect night

I went to the Sunday Buffet with high expectations, but unfortunately, most of the food was only lukewarm, with the chicken tikka starter even being served cold. When I pointed this out, the manager simply felt the cold dish without saying anything, but eventually had the kitchen make a fresh batch which was much better. However, I was scolded for using too many plates, which I found frustrating considering the variety of dishes offered. The plates were also not warm, making it difficult to enjoy certain items like salad. When I complained on Facebook, I received a dismissive response about my plate usage. It seems the issue was more with the waitress than the well-dressed manager, as she claimed no one else had complained that day, which I highly doubt. After hearing similar experiences from friends, it seems this is not an isolated incident. We enjoyed this restaurant in the past, but we will not be returning under its current ownership. I recommend avoiding this place at all costs. Also, as another reviewer mentioned, the price of a Lime Soda is surprisingly high at £3.50.
