Food Quality
Pros:
"The flavors were truly authentic and delicious."
"The food at Turmeric Gold was incredibly tasty."
"The mixed grill was excellent, all the meat was tender, juicy and well flavoured."
"The food was outstanding and the service cheerful, with humour and kindness."
"The food was absolutely amazing."
"Each dish was bursting with flavor."
"The food was delicious and well-presented and reasonably priced for the quality."
Cons:
"We waited 1.5 hours from sitting down having a starter and then main being delivered."
"Mains did not arrive at once and sundries such as rice and naans took ten minutes further to arrive all the while the curries were getting cold."
"The food was quite nice although no better than most other Indian restaurants, but it was considerably more expensive."
"But I was truly disappointed with a food. I ask to recommend something not to hot. I had tikka masala and I have to say it didn't taste anything like tikka."
"The main veg curry was served in a very weirdly unique way anyways we thought the taste might be good. But again, we were proved wrong the gravy was not even cooked properly."
"Poor quality food! I had the same vegetarian dishes ten days ago and was completely satisfied, however tonight’s food was terrible, straight to the bin!"
"The food wasn't worth the high price."

"Service was friendly and prompt throughout."
"The staff were not only nice but also very attentive."
Cons:
"Owner/manager is very rude and patronising."
"The service was a little slow which left us a bit frustrated - we were in a rush so perhaps that was on us, though drinks orders should have been taken sooner in any case."
"We were billed with 39.95 each, there is NO TRANSPARENCY, DIGNITY OR HONESTY to not be forthcoming with saying that the prices are set when staying in a certain section."
"The manager is extremely rude, belittled the staff."
"One of the staff, (the manager?), overheard, came over and screamed abuse at one of the females in our party."
"The lady who took our orders was pretty arrogant and pushy."
"The manager came across rude and made me feel like I was lying about my reservation."
Ambience
Pros:
"What a lovely atmosphere... I'm glad it still maintains the wonderful standard as it did years ago... perhaps surpasses it!"

"I loved the atmosphere and decor too. It felt cosy yet private, which is a great balance."
"Great ambiance inside too."
"The ambience of the restaurant was beautiful, thanks to its historic setting in a 13th-century building."
"The atmosphere and service in Tumeric Gold is easily the best in Coventry."
Cons:
"Wear loose clothing as it was very warm when we visited and fans were just blowing warm air around."
"The restaurant was freezing, at least upstairs where we sat."
"Decor is a little ornate for my tastes."
"Spaces are narrow and relatively confined."
"Minus point only on the inside decoration, the outside one is really nice though."
"The place is super cute."
"It feels that the turmeric gold that won several awards is now missing something."
Value

"For £19. Rice on top was nearly another £5."
"The prices are way above what they should be. £18 for a curry without rice!"
"Paid over a 100 quid for very mid food and poor attention to detail."
"It's super overpriced for the portion sizes and the actual quality of the meals."
"While food was excellent you should expect to pay double what most Indian restaurants charge."
