Curry Leaf Indian Restaurant has become a firm favourite on Edinburgh Street, drawing locals and visitors alike with its commitment to authentic Indian cooking.

Whether you're a seasoned curry enthusiast or trying Indian food for the first time, the menu has something for every palate.
The Menu
Curries & Mains
The heart of the menu features a generous selection of curries spanning mild kormas and butter chicken through to fiery vindaloos and regional specialities. Lamb rogan josh, prawn masala, and paneer tikka masala are among the standout dishes, each simmered to perfection with house-ground spices. Vegetarian and vegan options are plentiful — the dal makhani and chana masala are particular highlights.
Tandoori & Starters
The tandoor oven produces beautifully charred chicken tikka, seekh kebabs, and naan breads that are crisp on the outside and pillowy within. Shared starters like samosas, pakoras, and onion bhajis make a great opening to any meal.
Biryani & Rice
Fragrant biryanis — layered rice dishes slow-cooked with meat, vegetables, and saffron — are a house speciality. Available with lamb, chicken, prawn, or vegetables, they're a complete meal in themselves.
