Thira Restaurant

“Brilliant food, excellent service and beautiful interior.”

Excellent meal and very attentive service from friendly and helpful staff. The choice of food is, I found, quite creative and gave a good opportunity to discover some dishes with which I'd been unfamiliar (I've eaten in many Indian restaurants over the years so to be able to achieve that is quite an achievement!). Was visiting Blackburn on a personal matter so, sadly, will not be able to enjoy as often as I would wish. If you are visiting Blackburn I'd very strongly recommend this restaurant.

Thira offers a masterclass in South Indian comfort. The Lamb Biriyani is a standout—fragrant, fluffy, and generously studded with cashews and raisins. The Thali is a vibrant mosaic of textures, anchored by a perfectly puffed poori. Finish with the creamy Paayasam; it’s the kind of authentic sweetness that lingers. An unpretentious gem.

Very good service and food. Highly recommend this place it’s a hidden gem. The mix grill was bang on and curry’s are really good. Prices are decent also and would definitely go again.

Excellent food! Never eaten south Indian cuisine before. Tried the Masala dosa, it was delicious with the sambar and coconut chutney. Then had the varutharacha khozi chicken curry with lemon rice and garlic nan ... amazing!! Staff were lovely and very helpful around choice of food/ accompaniments etc. Will certainly be back for more!
