Eastern Eye, The Description

This is certainly the grandest, and probably the best Indian restaurant in Bath. In a massively gracious room that would do credit to a Livery Company, Eastern Eye serves Indian delicacies from Bengal and Northern India.

The range of dishes is truly amazing, so much so that for the confused there is a standard set meal on offer at £14, plus service.

Whilst this may, in certain circumstances be acceptable I prefer to plumb the infinite glades of the familiar, the new, the feared and the imponderable. Your Balti, for instance, can be turbo charged by the payment of 40p extra. One wonders what capacity £1.20-worth might have.

I select but one dish to demonstrate the care and range of ingredients which goes into Moglai chicken, a mild Moghul dish; tender pieces of spring chicken flavoured with egg, ginger, garlic and exotic massalla, shallow fried then added to a special home prepared sauce made of yoghurt, coconut, poppy seeds, cashews and sultanas before being garnished with roasted cashews.

For £70.00 four people can dine nobly off King Prawn butterfly, chicken chandan, specially prepared lamb and chicken dishes, noor mahal special biriany with nuts and dried fruit, mixed vegetables, nans, popadoms, chutney, dessert and coffee.

Your Reviews of Eastern Eye, The

Steve Willis (17 August 2008)

I visited the restaurant, having visited the Eastern Eye in Lichfield, which I was impressed, believing the one in Bath to be a sister restaurant. However, the food was extremely average in Bath, no better than, and arguably worse, than the average high street Indian restaurant. Whilst the restaurant room is impressive, this is not, in my book, the reason to visit a restaurant. It is the food, which I think is overpriced and mediocre.

Big Dave (4 February 2004)

The best in Bath? It is good, but the best? Please, wouldn't the Rajpoot by Pultney Bridge be the best simply by the number of awards it has won? Winner of best Indian restaurant for 8 years running or thereabouts. Yes, think it should really. Chin chin.

Marvellous what you can do with a redundant railway station, and here in Bath the former booking hall of Green Park Station has been transformed into spacious and graceful surroundings, full of light ...
