Akbar's Rotherham Meadow Bank Road, Rotherham S61 2NF

"Went there for dinner on Sunday. Was told over the phone there are plenty of seats available but when we got there, we had to wait for approximately 10 minutes. I don't mind waiting but would have preferred to be told the truth. The starters, grilled king prawns and fish fry (don't remember exactly what it is in the menu). The king prawns were just amazing and these were the best I have ever had. The fish fry was good too as the spices were very very light. So if you are expecting spices in the fish they you'll be disappointed. But the fish batter was light and overall was good. Main course, ordered Haleem, extremely disappointed. It felt like having a blended chicken and meat curry. Lentils are added to haleem but they seem have forgotten to add the main ingredient. Over spicy, had a lot of chopped green chillies in it. I would never pay £11 for such a curry! Naan: ordered a Keema naan which was delicious but they cannot justify the price £4.45 or around that. TLDR: expensive, starters (king prawn and fish) are great, main course - Haleem £11.45 is disappointing, Keema naan - £4.45 is good but not worth the money. Had to wait 10 minutes, although was told, no waiting times."

"Hi all, Great restorane, with great quality food, only for people who likes light diner will jot prefer this. Thats because all restorant are on dark side or low lighting over restorant. Got to give 3 stars because e got dirty menu, no pints only bitle beer and low lighting over restorant. Food was amazing and can be enjoyed esspesially if person likes spicy food. For non spicy food lowers would not advise this tho."
