Balti Palace in Northampton

Great value for money, good food. Will come back again!

Food was excellent and great value too. Service was a bit slow but was worth the wait.

It says “Indian - Pakistani food” but honestly it has no authentic taste. Everything is way too sweet, and not even spicy at all. Biryani is so bland and tastes like fried rice and is not even properly cooked. Naans are also very sweet and taste like the processed ones from groceries store, not freshly made ones. If you are Pakistani or Indian or from Asia, I don’t think this restaurant suits you. I was so disappointed when I tried the first bite. I always eat at Al Fairoz but just wanted to try a new restaurant today but I would not come back next time.Anyway, the restaurant looks nice and you get hot towel and chocolate when you finish. Popadoms are good. If you can’t eat spicy then you can try.

Food was ok. Found odd that coke was from Russia, the ice-cream in the end was full of ice. The place is a popular place, be prepared for people shouting.

Had a good time here last night. Food is relatively good. I have ordered Chicken Korma and for my taste is was too coconuty and sweet. However I have mixed it with another dish to add some spice to it. Naan bread was amazingly delicious

Amazing, I had the Lamb Balti Madras and it was incredible… being from Birmingham I am surrounded by high quality Balti restaurants but this is place is incredible glad I now work in Northampton and will be visiting again soon

Ideal for large rowdy gatherings fuelled by bring your own booze. Not an ideal place for an early evening meal for two. Unfortunately we were the latter. Still the food is cheap, the service is quick and pleasant, and we beat a hasty retreat before some of the diners really got curried away!

I think the most fair review of the Balti King would be "you almost get what you expect". It is bring your own drinks and the food is incredibly cheap; so it seems unfair to expect anything too grand. The food is fairly standard and the service is lacklustre, but that seems about fair given the price tag. However, when we went, our order was mixed up and one dish was missing, meaning one of us had to wait while everyone else ate. When the dish came out it was still the wrong meat in the wrong sauce (about as wrong as you can get a curry). It seemed obvious they just brought out what had been ordered at another table and tried to pass it off as the right dish as it looked very nondescript; however, we'd stopped caring by that point, so just accepted it. On the plus side, you can get a two course meal and sides for about £15.

We have been going there for years sometimes the food is better than others.... Changing chef's I guess.We were so looking forward to a curry and then it arrived.the onion bhaji was the worst I have ever had a yellow dough no onions .... My wife had a Tika Masala, it was so strong with dessicated coconut it was like a pudding no spice it so so sweet was enedible! It was sent back and replaced with a chicken curry of some kind, the other curry's mine a Lamb Rogan josh and a chicken tika garlic korai all unrecognisable !Very disappointed we will not go back we will miss the bring your own element.

Always a good vibe at this restaurant with their bring your own beer policy always adds a different element to dining as all you really need to decide on is what your going to eat there. Typical soft drinks are available. Would recommend the table naan
