We booked on first table, great service with friendly staff. We ordered the sharing dosa, black pork curry, lamb korma, Kothu, Hopper and coconut rice. Such rich and fragrant flavours and textures. There is a large variety of unique drinks too! Would definitely recommend and hope to return soon!

Nadu brings a slice of Sri Lanka to the epicentre of Bristol’s cultural quarter, Stokes Croft.
Myself and colleagues from work headed to Nadu for a festive meal, well I say festive, as it was that time of year, the menu very much from Sri Lanka.
There was lots of lovely stuff on the menu and I found it quite challenging to choose something. I decided would have a small plate as a starter and then something else as a main.
Across the small plates one dish did stick out to me, which was the Tawa Fish, though there were some others there I would have been happy with. I was quite intrigued by the Mojo Cutlets as well as the Miris Bhaji.
The Tawa Fish was simply a seasonal fish grilled in bell pepper & ginger sauce.
This was not the best looking dish I have seen, and they had tried with the peppers and other garnishes. However, the food was delicious. The fish was perfectly cooked, and the sauce, spicy but not overpowering. I really enjoyed eating this portion of fish.
For my main course, again lots of choice. I liked the idea of the roasted beef bon marrow in the Aeta Midulu, across the different karis, I was tempted by the Era Kulumba, a mild shrimp curry, or the Thora Malu, a fish curry. The Ceylonese Lamb Kari also sounded delicious. In the end though after much thinking I went with the Black Pork Kari, which was slow cooked pork belly with smoked coconut & cinnamon. Alongside I had some coconut rice.
Though not black, this was a very dark looking curry. I was expecting that though. This was also delicious, the pork were very tender, and the sauce was delicious. Not sure I could taste the smoked coconut, but I am sure it was in there somewhere. I really liked this pot and it was really tasty. There was a good level of spice, so you could say spicy, but wasn’t hot and fiery. All rather good and I did finish off this dish.
We also shared a Tear & Share Dosa, 48 hour fermented crispy rice pancake served with chutneys and sambar. Literally tear bits off, dip them in the chutneys and enjoy.
The service was excellent, well informed and friendly waiting staff offering advice and recommendations.
I can’t wait until I can go again.

Outstanding on every level. Loud enough to have an atmosphere, quiet enough to have a conversation. Food brilliant and really authentic. Service so friendly and polite. Will be back next time I’m in Bristol.

I had such a lovely experience dining here! The food was absolutely delicious — full of authentic flavours and clearly made with care. We were seated and served really quickly, and our server was both polite and genuinely friendly, which made the meal even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was calm and relaxed — perfect for a chill date or just a quiet evening out trying new dishes. Everything from the service to the food exceeded expectations. Highly recommend!

Very good experience here. Service was lovely, so welcoming and great. My dad was coughing so they brought a jug of water for the table and I felt that was so nice of them to notice and act quick! The food is unreal! You must try the fish curry and the pork belly meal, you won’t regret it!! The bone marrow meal was excellent too! I highly recommend this restaurant they also are dog friendly. We will definitely come back!

Nadu in Bristol was fantastic. The aubergine pickle was a real standout, so good I’d go back just for that. The dosa was perfectly crisp, the Chettinad chicken full of spice and flavor, and the lamb korma rich and comforting. Great food, relaxed vibe and definitely worth a visit.

Went for dinner at Nadu yesterday evening, and it was some of the best food I have had in bristol. We ordered the Lamb Rolls, Spring Onion Poriyal, Tawa Fish, Matta Rice and the Lamb Korma Curry to share. The food was perfectly flavourful and not heavy. I highly recommend the Arrackuirri cocktails as well, especially if you are a lover of cardamom!
The staff were all very kind and the service quick even though they had a large party.
I will definitely be coming back and would highly recommend.

An absolute gem in Bristol. Conveniently located, Nadu vibes is lovely and very atmospheric. We went here as a part of our food tour, and we were served such amazing curry. We love the cashew one- just absolutely tasty. Their menu has a great variety and I would definitely love to come back. The staff are so friendly and accommodating. 10/10 highly recommend.
