Loved this place! Atmosphere was ace. Quiet as we came last orders but let us seat just after 9pm, food was HOT, Naga & masala ‘madras hot’ accommodated our requests, food was spot on, beer lively, staff great, food great. We eat a LOT of curry & most of the time it’s not hot for what it says & meat lacks quality. Loved this place. Will return. Thanks guys 5*

Great food, lovely atmosphere, and staff are very attentive. Been twice we will be back. The chicken poppers and pakora starters are delicious. Had a lamb main with bread both also delicious. We will be back.

Food was amazing and very flavorful. Service was spot on, and we were treated like family. Will come here again, our favorite Indian food in Harrogate. My wife had the vegetarian thali with vegetarian tacos. I ordered the garlic lamb and chicken sizzler. It was so all so delicious.

Excellent Indian restaurant. Really good food. Really friendly staff. Attentive and helpful.

Raihan was especially good, helping us to choose the most interesting dishes.

The food was well spiced, and the portions were just right.

We were visiting Harrogate for our wedding anniversary as we do most years.

We’ve been to loads of Indian restaurants across the country, and this is going straight into our top ten.

It’s housed in a really interesting building that used to be a theatre.

We will definitely go to Cardamon Black again.

Came here for an engagement celebration 18 of us in total, they put us up in the top right corner on 2 separate tables, it would have been much better if they put the table into a U shape. We sat down around 6, came for the order around 6.30 someone took starters someone else took mains. By 1935 food started to come out, no order at all my mains came first, drunken prawns, the alcohol just swished on my plate and wouldn’t light, so it got taken back and brought back out again, where a pathetic flame was present, unfortunately this did not burn off the alcohol sufficiently and a couple of the prawns did not taste great and had a mushy consistency. My starter still hadn’t appeared. My friends who ordered the sizzle plate unfortunately had no sizzle and the meat was undercooked. One person ordered the chicken bhuna which was nice but her starter never turned up at all and another ordered onion bahjis but they were frozen in the middle. We had lots of missing dishes and only one person said sorry, they really seemed like they couldn’t be bothered.my starter eventually came but it looked very much like my main and tasted very similar again with one of the prawns been a strange consistency. Unfortunately we won’t be returning

Service was attentive at first but tailed off. Although all waiting staff were busy, there didn’t seem to be enough for the number of diners in on a Saturday night.
The restaurant is stunning inside, and there’s a wide variety on the menu to choose from.
The meal was most promising at the beginning, with delicious starters which were beautifully presented. Time taken for starters and mains to appear was just right.
Sadly, just before our mains arrived, two couples (dining separately on the tables next to ours) started discussing loudly how disappointed they were with the food, called for taxis and walked out. This was not noticed/dealt with by staff. This rather ruined the atmosphere, not least because the abandoned food took a while to be cleared away.
My special biryani was disappointing. Had to complain about the totally overcooked poached egg on top which was replaced (I declined to have the whole dish recooked). The dish’s ingredients were listed as king prawn, freshwater prawn, lamb, chicken and mushroom. King prawn was hidden and in the singular. Only about 4 other small prawns. Lamb was the main ingredient. The monkfish and king prawn saag was better.
We were given a discount when we came to pay and the manager appeared concerned to hear about the egg.

We can’t sing the praises of this wonderful discovery as high as they deserve. An elegant, modern and sophisticated decor with extremely competent , friendly and attentive staff. The food is excellent and copious. Love this place. Our new home from home.

Just been and had to write a review straight away. This place is phenomenal. Food is authentic, spiced beautifully, cooked and presented perfectly, service is bang on with smiles, the decor imo, is like a little indian palace. So glad we went there. The lads serving need a mention, you make the brilliant atmosphere and you work so hard. Thank you!

One of the best and what I consider fine dining Indian food in the area. The coriander chutney was very fresh and went well with everything. Highly recommend the firecracker chicken wings, fried perfectly with a nice crispy outside yet moist inside and great but not overbearing seasoning. The tacos were actually the best I’ve had in Harrogate which was very surprising. Was packed full and the tortilla was a cross between a traditional tortilla and pita, very nice touch. Drinks were done well and staff are very accommodating and give great recommendations.

We frequently dine in and take away at this one of a kind restaurant. The flavourful food is a fresh take on Indian classics alongside delicious creative fusion dishes. Cardamom Black is one of our favourites and would highly recommend. The staff are friendly and attentive. The cocktails pack a delightful punch that matches the vibrant and opulent decor. Whether you decide to go with a classic or go more adventurous you will not be disappointed.
