After hearing glowing recommendations from friends, we finally dined at this exceptional restaurant with our family today. The experience was truly beyond our expectations. The food was a delightful fusion of flavors, showcasing the elegance of fine dining while staying true to its desi roots. Each dish was a stunning visual and taste sensation, though I managed to capture only one photo in my excitement. The service was outstanding, with attentive staff making our visit personal and memorable. This restaurant is a hidden gem, perfect for family gatherings or special celebrations. I highly recommend it for a truly unforgettable dining experience!

This cafe is a lovely atmosphere, with polite and friendly staff. The music is at the right volume, not over the top. The food arrives piping hot and is prepared once ordered (so you may have a little wait, but certainly won't be disappointed!) From the tables, cutlery and even the toilets are spotless.

We had an amazing experience at CY Cafe on Melton Road! The food was absolutely delicious — we tried the Dabeli, Collegian Bhel, and Frankie, and each one tasted just like the flavours back home in India. It’s easily some of the best Indian street food we’ve had in Leicester. Fresh, authentic, and full of flavour. Highly recommended for anyone craving real taste of India! Will definitely be back.

Well I have been going past this cafe for a long time and today was the day I tried it , pav bhaji ek dum mast ! Also the owner was kind enough to add idli as a taster and I was surprised how tasty soft and delicious it was ! It’s a small run family business and they are all lovely people! I’m sure anyone who goes there will love the food and service , I will be going back with my family for a proper lunch one of these days and order more off the fantastic menu keep up the good work guys !

A Delightful Experience! What a fantastic little gem! Every dish we tried had incredible flavor—we only wish we could have sampled more of the menu. The quality and taste exceeded our expectations, and we’ll definitely be back to explore further. The restaurant itself is spotlessly clean, the staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. Plus, the reasonable prices made it easy for us to order multiple dishes, which was a huge bonus! Highly recommend giving this place a try!
