We are visitors to Northampton and were taken here by our hosts. They live in Wellingborough and we have known them for years. We did come here about 3 years ago and the quality of the experience and the food is still absolutely excellent. The staff are attentive without it being overbearing, the food is varied and tasty but given its a buffet really fresh. Well done for keeping a good consistent standard with a smile.

Good food, polite staff. The Sunday buffet is superb value. £14.50 for all you want, the food is very tasty, fresh and has a great variety. The live Jazz was a wonderful touch too. My only issue was the starters are so delicious it's hard to leave room for the mains!

S. C.

Went for the first time and I wasn’t overly impressed. The chicken and lamb was lacking flavour on the sizzler. The rogan josh had bland chicken in. Bhuna was too dry. The service went from one extreme to other. Firstly, constantly being asked if we were ready for things to asking for the bill and it taking ages to come despite it not being busy and having to ask 2 people for it. Won’t be returning

M. A.

Nice and clean and spacious. The staff were friendly and willing to go through the menu. The service were very good and not at all intrusive. Food was also cooked really well and tasted great! Would definitely recommend.

Too many Indian restaurants serve bland food where all the dishes taste the same. Here, things are different, with every dish being unique, and the meat quality is excellent - whether chicken or lamb. If I have a criticism, it's the slightly restrictive takeaway menu and the fact they don't open on Sundays. Overall, though, a superb place to eat in, and well above average for takeaways.

Great friendly service as usual. The atmosphere was lovely and food was delicious and fresh. Excellent menu. Good Covid measures in place.

Have been to this restaurant on several occasions now and have always had a positive experience. I really like the lounge area where you can peruse the menu and order when ready while having a drink and a natter. This is all very relaxed. The food has always been very good, very tasty, well spiced. One of my favourite Indian restaurants.

My wife celebrated her birthday on a Sunday this year so I decided to try the Mem Saab restaurant in Northants. I still feel good after eating there!...The whole eating experience was worth every second. The whole place was beautifully humble and not trying to be something it wasn't but once I tried the food I realised it didn't have to...the strength of the place lies in its approach to food and the eating experience....relaxed, tasty dishes. One of Northamptonshires best kept secrets...a hidden Gem. Even with half a dozen starters and half a dozen mains on offer, nothing more was necessary...just a perfect lunch with my family. The Mem-Saab sits at the apex of Indian food. Everything was just right. Couldn't have found friendlier staff...really impressed and definitely returning to eat here. The live Jazz musician played throughout the time I spent there and even though I'm not a fan, it actually fitted nicely and added a tangible feel good factor with a definite element of 'It's Sunday lets relax'. My compliments to everyone working there collectively you made it amazing.

Beautiful food made as spicy or as mild as you like. One of the best places I've been for this cuisine. Staff are excellent and the atmosphere is calm and relaxing.

R. J.

The lamb is really really good. The staff is just amazing. Everytime I come to England from the states, I have to come here. This is not only one of the best Indian restaurants, but one of the best restaurants period! I have to give a shout out to Suraj! He does everything!

P. R.

Always very good food and friendly service Can't wait until the restaurant can open again

G. Y.

Staff very friendly and helpful. Great food and also felt very safe with plenty of room between tables. Enjoyable night.

Great restaurant, fantastic decor, great food, owner pays attention to what you say and is interested in your comments. Only one niggle, floor staff dont really keep a eye on the back part of the restaurant which seems to be on no mans land, when i was there some clients including myself just couldn't get there attention, apart from that perfect, also the bar next door is a must, perfection all the way.

D. P.

Excellent as usual. Great choice of food, good service, friendly helpful staff. Added bonus of live music on Sunday. Highly recommended.

R. S.

Great place for groups, especially with the champagne bar next door. Good food, simplified to English audience, don’t be afraid to ask for more authentic indian cuisine.

R. A.

I have been a customer of Mem-Saab 6 times now, one of those times the meal was okay nothing special but that might have been my fault for trying something new. The other 5 times including a Sunday lunch time my meal has been perfect and mouth watering. Too many times we go out of our way to express a negative experience but how many of us take time out to praise a service when it has been good. The staff are always friendly and I would recommend Mem-Saab to anyone. We are all struggling to survive in the worst economic climate we have known and someone complains that a plate was slightly faded

J. P.

Upmarket curry restaurant. Come here for the Sunday buffet and eat all you can. Great selection of starters. The musicians they hire for Sunday's are also normally very good.

S. M.

This is a really lovely place to come for a relaxed Sunday lunch This is a good Indian restaurant, which markets itself as up-market - with justification. The decor is contemporary, which is pleasant. The food is good quality.

D. F.

Excellent food, good variety and very tasty. Good atmosphere and service attentive without being intrusive. Sunday lunch with a side helping of Jazz a perfect way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon.

M. C.

Been a few times, food and staff are excellent, went to the Sunday buffet for the first time and would definitely recommend, was surprised at how busy it was, but more than enough for everyone and some live music to boot!

H.

Had Indian buffet for lunch for 14.95£. Food was decent and good value for money. Service was also good. Recommended for people in search of Indian food..

S. Q.

Lightly refreshed take on traditional menu, food was OK and particularly liked the blue bottles of water. Large venue with grand feel, lacks warmth. Service lacked smiles.

M. P.

Always good food, drink and venue, will cater for a party of people, very clean and tidy with the food exceptional. A treat for anyone that has not been before.

B. B.

This spot never fails to impress. They have fresh food for convenient prices, there no long wait even when the place is busy.

L. G.

Mem-Saab is a very nice and friendly Indian restaurant which looked after our group of eight and also had a good selection of vegetarian dishes for anyone who is vegetarian we had been there before and the service was also as good.

R. M.

The venue appears a bit dated (or maybe it's just go have appearance?), but not unpleasant. Food was excellent.

H. S.

Had a takeaway from Mem-Saab today....and although I agree nobody can beat mums home cooking, I will have to say Mem-Saab just did.....and mum loved it also ! Thank you.

(Translated) A very nice and new Indian restaurant. Good food and you can even ask the chef for something tasty that is not on the menu. Nice to know that this is actually a part of the old shoe factory that has been completely restored. (Original) Een heel mooi en nieuw Indiaas restaurant. Lekker eten en je kan zelfs de kok om iets lekker vragen wat niet op de kaart staat. Leuk te weten dat dit eigenlijk een stuk van de oude schoenenfabriek is wat geheel is gerestaureerd.
