I can honestly say this is one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with genuine warmth and hospitality. The staff are not only friendly but also incredibly helpful and attentive – they really go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. Now let’s talk about the food. The butter chicken... I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s the best I’ve ever tasted. Rich, creamy, perfectly spiced – every bite was a burst of flavour that left me wanting more. You can really taste the care and authenticity that goes into each dish. The restaurant itself has a lovely, relaxed atmosphere and it’s clear the team takes real pride in what they do. I left feeling full, happy, and already planning my next visit. If you’re ever in Nairn, do yourself a favour and eat here. Incredible food, outstanding service, and a team that makes you feel like family. A true gem.

I have been going to An Najeeb for a few years now, and it it is one of the best places to eat in Leicester especially if you’re in the mood for a bit of Indian. The service is top notch aswell and the hospitality is great!

Amazing service, our waiter we called him uncle and he went above and beyond for us ! He was very kind, patient and understanding whilst we figured out our orders. The food came out quickly and was amazing, best tawa style I've ever had. Would highly recommend giving this place a try, such lovely food and staff

The indo Chinese tawa was really good! We were six of us and still had plenty left over after. Ordered it for 4 people. The food was definitely worth the trip from Birmingham!

Visiting UK and my cousins being me here for dinner. The food was awesome, and the concept was great. They serve food on a whole tawa with options of serving 2, 3, or 4 people. We had Chinese and desi Tawas, and both were good. Remember, they only take cash.

Baarakallahu feekum for the team at An Najeeb for the wonderful iftaar. The food, atmosphere and service was impeccable as always. It’s also comforting knowing that there is a prayer room available upstairs. Thank you all and especially Zaahid. Best restaurant in Leicester hands down. I’ve never not been wowed by the food here in over 10 years of coming, Allahuma baarik.
