Aagrah

Always tasty with good service.

Visited this place last night, its a few years since I have been to an Aagrah restaurant and wanted somewhere within a few miles of the hotel I was in. The barstaff recomended the Aagra, I didnt realise how close it was (£15 taxi each way)
Also I had a guest from Milan with me who wanted to try a typical English night out.
So we had 4 or 5 quick pints at the hotel and off for a curry !!!
As the cab dropped the three of us off in the jam packed carpark I thought maybe should have booked — even though it was a Tuesday night !
The bar staff said the wait would be about 20 mins so we grabbed three pints and waited by the bar.
True to their word 20 mins later we were shown to the table.
Papads and dips duly arrived with the menus.
We each had soup (dhall for the other two and yakhnee for me) the soup was very good — the chicken yakhnee is actually from pakistan and is mega spicy — think chicken broth with a dozen chillis per bowl !
Mains were chicken Madras for me, chicken dhansak for Mike and Lamb Passanda for Stefano. All mains were excellent, loads of meat, good sized portion and very (temp) hot.
three rice, one aloo paratha one naan
three sides, dhall makahani, aloo sag, channa masalla.
two pints each
one irish coffee, one expresso, one brandy.
£100.00 with tip — so very good quality and very good value.
Im back in Doncaster for the St Ledger and will probably book a meal here at night.
If you are in the area and in the mood for Indian food you will be fine here — maybe better to book though !

Lovely food and great atmosphere. Just its that cramped and that busy that you feel your being rushed along. Try to get a table for 8.30pm which means by the end they won’t be hurrying you along.
