Description: Priding itself on being 100% true to its Indian roots, Bedminster���s Ganesha Authentic Indian Cuisine is a family run restaurant providing high quality food and efficiently friendly service. Set in the Bedminster suburb of Bristol, Ganesha offers a menu completely different to other Indian restaurants in the region, offering guests true Indian food from home recipes. With a selection of dishes from all parts of India, the Ganesha menu takes you on a unique culinary journey, on which you���ll sample exciting food you may never have heard of and certainly won���t have tried here in Bristol, from handmade breads to appropriately spiced curried fish dishes. Combining efficiency and friendliness, Ganesha���s service is second to none while the simple d��cor of the dining room is focused on comfort and space, the furnishings contemporary and sleek with nods to the restaurant���s roots in Indian artworks including a statue of the revered elephant god himself situated behind the bar.

After arriving the place doesn't look much from outside but the food was absolutely amazing! I asked the waiter what he would reccomend, he was very informative and the food he recommend was stunning! I would recommend... More

Ate here with my wife and some friends on a Thursday night. When we arrived I was slightly nervous as the place doesn't sing quality from the decor and was a little untidy. My fears were unfounded tho because the food really does live up to the reputation. We had dosa, Bhangra prawns and tandoori chicken to start. The prawns... More

Ate here last night. Was delightfully surprised by the starter (tiffins very authentic and rarely seen in other indian restaurants menus) was excited to find the mains equally delicious. Overall food was delicious - fresh, high quality and very true to Indian cuisine. The staff were also very passionate about what they do. Best indian in Bristol! More

I went with my other half, who was ridiculously excited about going back there ( I hadn't been before) and I now know why. The food is amazing, the service fantastic and personal, the staff took the time to explain the menu, make recommendations ( which were spot on) and explained what authentic south Indian food is. My partner has... More

Really great food, one of the best Indian's I've ever had and certainly the best I've had to date in Bristol. Near the Temple Meads rail station so if you are in the mood for a curry and just stepped off the train or need to head home definitely go via Ganesha. Wasn't expecting this at all after going in...

You will break yours and your stomach's records here; so much good food and staff who are friendly, enthusiastic about cooking and keen for people to have a good experience. My son (6 years old) came away loving Dosa (and the waiter who kept bringing yummy bits for him to try). Go if you are willing to find every other... More

Amazing south Indian cuisine and my favourite indian in Bristol, makes such a nice change from your typical 'indian' curry houses. Make sure you have a Masala Dosa and the hot Chicken one (can't remember its name) (something like Andhra Chilli Murg???).. I have been lots of times and the place can become very congested when its busy. Its reassuring... More
