Best A La Carte Menu at Dashwood By Aziz, Oxford

The Story Behind Our Cooking

Aziz Oxford was founded on a simple belief: when food is prepared with care, heritage and generosity, it becomes more than a meal. Established on Cowley Road in the early 1990s, Aziz quickly became part of Oxford’s everyday rhythm, welcoming students, families and visitors to share dishes rooted in the traditions of the Indian subcontinent.

Our cooking continues to honour that legacy. Fragrant spices, balanced flavours and careful technique define every plate. We respect authenticity while embracing the warmth of the community we serve. Today, we proudly carry that story forward, inviting you to sit back, savour and become part of it.

Explore Our A La Carte Selection

Our A La Carte menu offers a journey through classic Indian flavours, from delicate starters to robust curries, traditional tandoori grills and comforting vegetarian dishes.

To begin, enjoy favourites such as Tandoori Murgh, marinated on the bone and grilled in the clay oven for a smoky finish, or Gosht Chop, tender lamb chops slow cooked until succulent. Vegetarian starters like Samosas, Pyazee and Crispy Bhindi Fingers offer crisp textures and gentle spice, while Chilli Paneer delivers savoury warmth.

Our house specials and classic curries showcase depth and variety. Choose from Korai, cooked with peppers and onions in a rich aromatic sauce, Razalla finished in a creamy butter base, or Murgh Jal Farajee for vibrant spice. Traditional options such as Bhuna, Dhansak, Saag, Rogan and Korma are available with chicken, mutton, prawn or king prawn, allowing you to tailor flavour and heat to your preference.

Seafood dishes such as Tilapia Jhol and Korai Jinga celebrate coastal influences, while our Biryani selection layers fragrant basmati rice with delicately spiced chicken, mutton or prawns.

From the clay oven, our Tandoori Mix Grill and Tandoori King Prawns highlight the unmistakable character of yoghurt marination and open flame cooking.

Vegetarian mains including Saag Paneer, Sobzi Methi and Niramish sit alongside comforting sides such as Bombay Aloo, Tarka Dal and freshly baked naan breads.

Whether you join us for our All You Can Eat Sundays, a weekday Curry in a Hurry lunch or a leisurely evening meal, our A La Carte menu reflects the heritage, balance and generosity that define Aziz Oxford.
