Come dine with Aagrah, when it comes for a night off let Yorkshires splendid Indian restaurant spoil you with a variety of authentic curries, from meat to a fresh collection of seafood and vegetarian. All cooked to your desired taste.
Hidden under away in Sheffield’s Leopold Square, the sound of instrumental Indian music lures me to the finest restaurant in town.
The Aagrah chain consists of 11 restaurants based around South Yorkshire. These restaurants are desired to offer cuisine and hospitality to all their customers.
This fine beautiful restaurant holds 200 people and is few steps beneath the Italian restaurant Platillos. The dining room has a large chequerboard floor with massive brown columns rising here and there like giant chess pieces.
The waiters wore traditional salwar kameez an Indian outfit, embroidered with white and gold thread detail. This set an awe eccentric vibe with the music and candle lit lighting which set the scenery of being in India.
A fine authentic collection of ocean fresh fish, from cod to haddock and seabass all marinated in delicious warm Indian spices. Cocktail and tiger prawns are displayed on ice for you to pick out and have the chef make it however you wish. Whether that’s grilled or deep fried in crispy batter, served with a wedge of lemon and fresh salad.
My diner’s starter was not only mouth watering but very satisfying. The king prawn tikka (£5.95) marinated in yoghurt and vinegar with delicate herbs and spices. These gigantic prawns are cooked on charcoal to give that smoky barbecue taste.
For the vegetarian selection the panner tikka for starters at (£3.90) is a very popular dish that you can’t go wrong with. Panner is a type of Indian cottage cheese marinated in mouth watering hot ‘n’ sour spices and then flamed grilled, severed with green spring salad.
For those chicken lovers the kashmiri dishes are full of flavour, vegetables and aroma. Murgh Saag (7.95) made with chicken and spring leaf spinach tenderly cooked with ginger, garlic, bay leaves and cinnamon juice.
The Goan Machli (tilapia – fresh water fish) is a personal favourite of mine and is cooked to perfection at (£9.90). This exquisite dish is made with coconut milk, fresh garden mint and blends of oriental spices which leaves a pleasant sweet and fresh taste in your mouth.
You can enjoy these fine curries with soft puffy naan (£2.30). They are cooked on a hot tawa (pan) with a touch of onion seeds with melted butter spread all over.
For sweets, we have pleasant ras malai, milky dumplings in flavoured milk, both were £3.25.
Our bill with one glass of orange juice and a JD coke, came to £45 a bit more than your average Indian but then Aagrah is not your average Indian.
The service was excellent and the quick although we did have to ask a few times for a jug of water. But other than that I will definitely be visiting Aagrah again.
