Fantastic surroundings, wonderful food. Mr Koyesh is on hand to recommend dishes & offer a fantastic dining experience. My husband & I are so thrilled to have a quality Indian restaurant in Hull at last. We cannot recommend it enough. Please go & try it, you will want to go again, as once just is not enough!

I am so pleased that a good quality Indian restaurant can now be found again in Hull City Centre. Ever since Gainsborough closed down I have been travelling out of town for a good Indian meal, but no more - Cinnamon has everything I could possibly want.
My partner and I were, at first, somewhat perplexed at what to choose from the extensive menu but the very helpful waiter (who, it turns out was actually the owner My Koyesh) gave us plenty of time and even suggested we order our starters and continue looking at the menu at our leisure until they arrived.
The starters we chose were the Exotica (a typical but well flavoured tandoori mixed grill appetiser) and I decided on the Kolizi (spiced chicken livers). These were a revelation, perfectly cooked, highly spiced but still retaining the flavour of the main ingredient which, seeing as chicken livers are my favourite, was perfection for me.
For mains we requested a Phall (not on the menu) and a Tarka Dall (obligingly spiced up for us with extra chillies at our request and consequently probably the best I have had in Hull), Pilau Rice and a Chappati. I still could not make up my mind about the other mains but took Mr Koyesh's recommendations for the Chicken Chilli Bom and Seafood Bhuna after he had discovered my preference for seafood and a spicy House Speciality.
The food was wonderful. The Bhuna was packed full of squid, scallops and king prawns and the Chicken Chilli Bom was fragrant and mouthwateringly good with each individual spice recognisable and complementary to the others and the dish as a whole,
The entire experience, high quality food; friendly, helpful, warm and yet non-intrusive service; calm, comfortable ambiance and a good price have made this restaurant deserve all the 5 stars I am giving it and I suggest you try it for yourselves.
On Monday nights there is an amazing offer on for 9.95 per head for any Starter, Main, Side, Naan and Rice - the choice being from the entire menu rather than the shortened list of "favourites" most other offers provide. Please try this, you won't be disappointed.
