Bengal Blue

Welcome to Bengal Blue, a hidden gem located at 17-19 Walton Road, Aylesbury. This delightful establishment specializes in Indian cuisine, captivating food enthusiasts with its bold flavors and warm ambiance. As a food reviewer for Pops Cafe, I am excited to introduce you to the rich culinary offerings that Bengal Blue has to offer.

At Bengal Blue, the journey begins with enticing starters such as the Sunheri Samosa—a flaky pastry filled with chicken tikka, sweetcorn, and coriander—perfect for igniting your appetite. Also, don’t miss the Fish Kebab, where marinated fillet fish is fried to perfection. Both options are priced at a reasonable £5.10.

The menu continues to impress with an array of tantalizing Tandoori Dishes. The Tandoori Sheek Kebab is a must-try, featuring meat marinated in a delicate spiced yoghurt for 24 hours before being cooked in a traditional clay oven. Coupled with mint sauce and salad, each bite is a flavorful revelation at £8.50. Another standout, the Tandoori Lamb Shashlik, showcases tender lamb intermingling beautifully with fresh vegetables.

When it comes to their specialties, the Chicken Bengal Blue stands out, masterfully combining chicken tikka with fenugreek in a Rajasthani style at £10.50. This dish exemplifies the restaurant's commitment to authenticity and flavor. The Tandoori Mix Curry, a delightful fusion of tandoori chicken and steak kebab in a special sauce, offers another layer of complexity for just £12.90.

Classic Curry Dishes like the Chilli Massala are designed for those who crave spice, priced at £9.50. For those who prefer something milder, indulge in the Fish Korma, which encapsulates a rich, creamy experience at £10.50. And let’s not forget the exquisite Biryani Dishes, with the Bengal Special Biryani featuring a scrumptious combination of chicken, lamb, and prawn enhanced with aromatic basmati rice for £12.90.

*Bengal Blue* prides itself on providing an all-encompassing dining experience. Customers rave about the food, with one patron declaring the cuisine as “absolutely incredible” and noting its potential as their new favorite Indian restaurant.

    No idea why some of the reviews are as low as they are here- the food is absolutely incredible! We visited for the first time yesterday evening and were really impressed with the food, this will be our new go-to for Indian cuisine. Hats off to the chefs.However, I would say the service could definitely use some work. This restaurant does not have the attention to detail that many Indian restaurants are known and loved for. There was no warm welcome as we entered. In fact I don’t think we managed to get a smile from the staff the entire evening. In fairness the younger gentlemen working was a bit more hospitable than the older gent who just seemed angry & moody. Another example is that we put our cutlery on our starter plates once we’d finished, so they could be cleared and replaced and the waiter removed the dirty cutlery and set them back down on the table to use for our mains! This is quite unusual, and again not what you’d expect from an Indian restaurant where the attention to detail is usually far more thought-through. The chairs were quite grubby with marks on. The after-meal wipes were not warmed and were given to us cold. Just the little things that make a big difference.All this being said, again, the food is sensational. So much flavour and fresh. We’ve been to the so-called ‘best Indian in Aylesbury’ and Bengal Blue is MILES tastier. Some of the best Indian food I’ve had in a very long time. The chicken pakora had the perfect amount of seasoning and was tender. The korma was so creamy, sweet and flavourful- something I find many other establishments aren’t able to achieve. The lemon rice was just the perfect texture and amount of lemony taste. The naan was soft and buttery. Work on the customer service and attention to detail, and I’d happily recommend this place to all of my friends & family. It would be great to see a dessert menu too! We will be back soon and I already can’t wait :)

    This is a truly outstanding Indian restaurant. Firstly, the restaurant is calm and relaxed, which is perfect for a mid-week meal. The popadoms were freshly made and came with a number of delicious dips. The chicken bengal blue curry was very delicious and went really well with the egg rice. The chicken bhuna was also fantastic. I’d especially recommend the peshwari naan bread. The drinks were also very nice. The service was good and the gentleman serving us was very friendly. This was a perfect meal, and I’d absolutely come back!

    Myself with two more friends went to this restaurant last night and the level of service we received was pathetic considering these guys running business for quite some time now. We were given a table where one chair would not come out. Even though the restaurant was empty with only two more couples dining in, the staff looked reluctant to change table which they eventually did (I could not understand the fuss about it). I was not aware that this was just the beginning of a night full of awful experiences from them. After serving menu no one came to take our order for minutes. There was a staff of atleast people at front and no one acknowledged we sitting there, no eye contact what so ever so I stood up and went to the bar and ordered Kingfisher Beer on the tap for myself and two more drinks along with a starter to begin with. After mins I had my beer which looked totally flat. When I quesstioned the bar that the beer needs changing as this is not how it should, be all of their staff came at front to suggest the beer was okay to drink and that if I wont I will still be charged for this beer even if the whole pint was untouched. And then they had this old guy(customer or delivery guy?) standing next to the bar who was in some sort of association with these guys and was having free pints whilst waiting for food, this gentleman suggested the pint is perfectly fine and that he had two of these. He even suggested to stir it with straw or put a pinch of salt.. I mean seriously you retard head! I checked the pint with the spoon and there was no gas at all. Anyway I offered pint to this same old guy who now would not have it!! LMAO. Finally I ended up having another bottle of Cobra which one of the staff left on my table without saying anything and without pouring it. I did not want to stay there at this point of time. So we waited for our starters. The food was dry, with lacking flavours and it looks as if it was just warmed up in microwave. This was a mixed grill and it lacked grilled onions and the aroma that this kind of order usually have. This level of service is ridiculous and I can never imagine this happening in the UK! These guys need to be trained for improving their customer services. I just came from my holidays in India and any small restaurants would serve you better then this Bengal Blue! Not recommended to do any future business with them. I am not coming back along with two of my friends who were utterly disappointed like myself. Bad Service, Bad Food, Bad Attitude from the staff for what? £. pint!! ha !!
