“ Friendly staff, good service, nice food couldn't fault anything apart from the atmosphere. Decided to put us out for a quiet evening next to a table of 12-15 who were loud and standing up half the time. Ruined the evening a bit as literally couldn't hear what other were saying across the table. Maybe put bigger parties in the side part rather than main bit or vice versa. Highly recommend though! ”
“ Food is authentic and always very nice, but the service is just unbeatable, can't recommend enough, and I'm very critical. ”
“ A fantastic Indian restaurant. The food is delicious and the portion sizes are good too. The staff also go the extra mile. I’ve been several times and always come away satisfied. ”
“ I can't rate this lovely place highly enough. From the welcome to the paying of the bill it's all just top of its game. My wife and I arrived without booking on Easter Friday on the off chance of a table and were welcomed in without any hesitation, we were surprised how big the place is and how busy it was. The whole place is spotlessly clean, even the loos! We had poppadoms with some incredibly fresh and tasty pickles while we looked through the extensive menu and loved the choices of traditional dishes. I ordered the Rajasthani Laal Maas and my wife had a Lamb Sashlik, along with a sag and aloo, garlic naan and the rice dishes. Our food arrived in good time and tasted absolutely amazing! This is without doubt one of the best meals we've ever had. The flavours were beyond anything we'd expected, so fresh and tasty. As always we over ordered and struggled to eat it all but we gave it a good go! When we'd had our fill our plates were cleared and we were given complimentary slices of oranges, it was very refreshing after the meal and we polished them off while looking through the dessert menu, wishing we had room to put one in our over full bellies! We were then treated to a complimentary shot of flaming sambuca for me and a very nice Tia Maria for my wife, the sambuca was extinguished with a magical finger click from the waiter but unfortunately I was driving so couldn't partake. When the bill arrived we were pleasantly surprised at how low it was considering the quality of the food and amazing service. Over all, a brilliant night out that I would recommend to anyone, not just a lovely meal but a fantastic experience. ”
“ Fantastic food, tasty and good portions. Service was great and staff attentive. Busy restaurant which shows how popular it is. Highly recommended. If it is a birthday let them know, you won't be disappointed! ”
