Was Dominic Murray at Akbar a mag?
I was searching for Indian food in Coventry and stumbled upon this hidden gem. The food was fantastic, especially the mixed curry. In most Indian restaurants, I have often found people dining alone to be treated poorly, but the experience here was quite the opposite. The staff treated me very well and the service was excellent. I highly recommend trying out this restaurant. View all feedback.

What George Lewis dislikes about Akbar:
I have ordered king prawn biryani I have no idea why have they given equal amount of aloo curry as the biryani itself I ended up eating equal mix of biryani with aloo curry. I have no idea about how the biryani tastes like They have added small ice cubes in the in a glass and gave along with coke I got the ice cubes in my mouth each time I had a sip The restaurant is okay to go as per my experience View all feedback.

Was really looking forward to this place and we was seated, 40 mins till our drinks came and then we said we need to order and was told food will take another 1 hour minimum. Was furious as we had been there almost an hour and had asked to order twice. Waiter was rude when I said it was not acceptable. We then found a nice Indian round the corner with friendly staff and good food which came out prompt

Used to be good, quality going down hill especially on takeaway orders. My last 3 takeaways from here not good always something not right. Today's orders E.g on 1 dish, butter chicken asked for no spices they put coconut pieces in when i tried that when i got home. I mean who the Eats that with butter chicken. I had to bin that dish. So for 45 worth of takeaway I didn't get value for money, taste and quality of the food,1 out of 5 for this experience

The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was serene—perfect for anyone who feels a bit homesick. I ordered a drink, chicken curry, and papadum, and it was a delightful experience. The flavors were truly outstanding. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone in Coventry who loves Indian cuisine.

Arguably one of the best indians in cov. Everything is perfect and hospitality is the great. maybe a little too perfect seems like rehearsed effect. food is brilliant though and they do a large range of it too... evenly priced meals around £7
