What Tracy likes about Essence Of Bengal:
Used this place years before it even became a restaurant.take out and dine in are great never had a bad meal.staff always attentive food and atmosphere are spot on. Best Indian in the area View all feedback. What Paul1960 4 doesn't like about Essence Of Bengal:
I didn’t think it was possible for Indian food to be so lacking in taste. Had a prawn puri ? to start, and a chicken madras, with mushroom rice for main course. I reckon if I’d been blindfolded, I’d have struggled to tell the difference between the prawns and the chicken. All very wet. Not good enough. View all feedback.
