Thank you so much to all the staff and management at Red Mantra for making my son's party so special. The food was mouth watering and everyone left with the feeling that nothing was too much for these guys! Highly recommended!!

A very very disappointing night!!!

The food was AWFUL! Sorry to be blunt, but it tasted as if it was pre-cooked 2 days before, and then just warmed in the microwave when we ordered! On top of that, we had to wait over 40 minutes for our food, and the place wasn't even that busy. The best thing about the night was the friendly bar staff!

Too many fake people in there who walk around as if they own the place, some of the characters actually walk around thinking that they have a film crew following them for some poncey reality TV show.

I would recommend that no one even thinks about visiting this place! You will be left disappointed!!!!

There's plenty more, better places around with nice food! Drinks you can buy in an off-licence, but for the food I would rather eat cold McDonalds then go to this dive again!

If I'm going out at the weekend, Red Mantra is the place to be. Amazing food, great music with a lively crowd and buzzing atmosphere.

celebrated my sister's 30Th a few weeks ago, staff lovely, the owner came over and introduced himself and kept checking throughout the night. The service was great, great atmosphere and the food was absolutely delicous and considering i am the only one veggie out of 15 i normally find it difficult to get variety and nice tasting food but top marks here! Definately going again and will try the desserts this time round too! Oh and price was reasonable too, though might be expensive as looks a bit posh with the decor but the cost was average.

Overpriced drinks, everyone thinks they own the place. Attracts idiots.

Apart from visiting RM on Friday and enjoying my night there food is lovely especially the paneer as it is my favourite, atmosphere being lively and friendly......my brother had his wedding reception at RM and the guest loved the venue, food and the friendly staff who were very accomodating, so I highly recommend this place for any special occasions or just a general visit, you won't be disappointed.

Decided to pop in with the girls one week night, as we fancied a curry. Was impressed by the deco, and the fact the menu isnt your usually typical indian restaurant stuff.

Was quiet in there, but started to get busy as we left.

May check out their Saturday night, since they have a dj playing till 1.30.

My friends enjoyed it.

Venue is nice, thats the good point out the way.

Staff too laid back.

Managers not interested in customer feedback.

Drinks expensive.

Requested some r&b or hip hop and flatly rejected.

I have been here a few times, its ok for somewhere to go local... I wouldnt plan my Friday or Saturday night around it.

The place is decorated nicely, food is ok... you would expect better. Drinks were overpriced considering the location.

The are a few owners.. to many chiefs and not enough indians! and on one occassion bumped into one of their wives.. some very interesting stories!
