What aquall doesn't like about Bay Of Bengal:
Ambience : The restaurant is clean and the atmosphere is great, waiters were attentive, subdued lighting was great, my partner and I, loved the look Starters: we both had onion barjis. The bargis were absolutely gorgeous, salad on the plate, very small portion but was OK. Main : We both had lamb dishes, OK, this is where it really wrong. The lamb was like shoe leather, grissel, one bite and I felt sick. Immediately w... View all feedback. What Sam Keshvari likes about Bay Of Bengal:
I visited on buffet night (even though it's not actually a buffet, I'm not sure why they call it that), but it was very affordable! The food was delicious and they offer a large and unique menu selection. The portion sizes were generous and it was great value for the price. However, the staff seemed disinterested and like they would rather be anywhere else in the world. View all feedback.

Wow what a bargain! So it’s not actually a ‘Buffet’ or ‘All you can eat’ so basically it’s a Tuesday special offer. The offer comprises of any Starter, any Main...

Bay of Bengal offers a captivating ambiance and a diverse menu, drawing diners with its clean setting and subdued lighting. While some patrons revel in delectable starters like onion bhajis and dishes such as lamb pasanda, others have faced disappointments with rubbery lamb and tasteless curry dishes, raising concerns about consistency. Service appears to be a sticking point, with mixed encounters—some praising attentiveness and friendliness, while others noted a rushed atmosphere, undermining the fine dining experience. Despite occasional letdowns, many express a willingness to return, hopeful for better meals on future visits.

Was empty when we were there, my wife asked for butter chicken which is normally very mild but she left most of it because it was too spicy
