The Ruby Murray, Bedford (13th January 2010)

Overall Score: 6.529
Cost: £20-25

NOT RECOMMENDED

Following our first visit here and subsequent trip to the Ritzy in Potton, we were asked to return here to see if the opening night scores were a little harsh. The standard of the food had improved, although we still feel that this is a curry house that is trying to hard to impress. More attention to the food would be impressive in the club members eyes, rather than the fancy decoration.

Starters were a vast improvement on the last visit and scored a very healthy 8.8, the main courses were all good with everyone enjoying their own choices, however the deserts were a disappointment and scored a very low 4.

We still feel that the Ruby Murray needs to improve on their service and the VFM. As this is one of the more expensive restaurants we have visited it needs to improve to warrant the extra cost

Ruby Murray, Bedford (31st January 2009)

Overall Score: 2.445
Cost: £25-£30
Website

NOT RECOMMENDED

After all of the local media hype about the modern style of the restaurant, the overall consensus was that the food and service were disappointing. The open grill area meant that the restaurant had a strong smokey atmosphere which affected the eyes! The experienced curry lover, Lee, was shocked at the Cheese Naan (Mozarella sprinkled on top), the limited deserts (four choices) was very disappointing to say the least! Once again the gallery effect did not impress Tony, who is more of a traditionalist. Simon was surprised that the hot towels arrived between the starter and main course, an interesting service idea. Overall this is not a restaurant that we will be returning to.
