Sheraz

Sheraz Bangla Lounge was a satisfactory, relatively cheap night out. The food was tasty, although I was a little disappointed by the paneer. The service varied from being somewhat overkeen at the beginning (asked 3 times for our drinks order by 3 different waiters within 90 seconds of sitting down) to being totally abandoned when a large party came in towards the end of our meal with a table arrangement that led to us being boxed in by the new arrivals. Ok, but probably would not return soon.

£9.95 menu is good value at Bangla - both had mixed kebab starter which was OK, main course chicken vindaloo (tasty) and chicken sizzler (really good) one pilau rice to share, one garlic naan and one glass of wine and one beer. Result! Lacking in atmosphere but great value and would return.

The restaurant has been refurbished, but the loos are still work in progress. Probably the worst curry that we have ever eaten and that is pretty dire for brick lane the home of curry in London. The ambience is a flat screen TV on the wall of the restaurant, so if you like watching Bollywood whilst eating curry? then this is for you.The five courses included a rice course and a nan bread course, so value for money seemd poor, especially when compared to other restaurants in Brick lane.
