We used to visit regularly when we lived locally but hadn't been for about 10 years. We were not disappointed! Food was still fantastic, service excellent and all in a lovely, quiet environment where we able to relax and enjoy . Will not leave it so long before going again.

Avoid totally if you have dietary requirements. I placed a takeaway order and specifically asked when doing so whether the food chosen was vegan, and more importantly whether it was free of nuts & coconut because of an allergy. I was told it was fine. On getting it home, one of the dishes turned out to be yoghurt based (I should probably have Googled each before ordering, but trusted what I was told). My wife called to double check what from the order we could eat, and was first told everything else was fine, but when she questioned further they admitted the bhajis have egg in... Staff were also quite rude and dismissive to her on the phone, and eventually hung up. With two known fails on the vegan front and faced with a wall of what must have been one of incompetence or dishonesty, there was no way we could risk the allergy by trusting information about nuts & coconut. They absolutely refused to consider a refund, and kept playing the "not my fault because you spoke to my colleague" card.

Came for the Buffet at lunchtime, and the food was absolutely stunning! I've been here many times in the past when I lived in Swansea but hadn't been for quite a while. They have had a redecorate since I was there last and a bit of a shake-up of the menu. Along as you like Indian food, you will struggle to find anything you don't like. I managed 2 plates and was very full rest of the day, and for £14 was a pretty good price.

The food was served up so quickly that it must have been pre-prepared, the rice was not hot, and overall, the whole meal was very bland. The staff were not welcoming, and everyone seemed in a bad mood. It's not a great experience, and I shall not be visiting again.

Have been going here for years with no problems but after ordering the Vegetarian Thali to take away (stating several times we were vegan so to swap the raita for extra popadoms) We opened it up and dished it up, started biting it to realise that it had chunks of lamb, we scraped it in the bin except for the lamb bits which I returned to the restaurant the next day and insisted on getting my £27 back for the full meal. (It ruined our night and 2 of our guests have been vegan for over 50 years and suffered from a stomach upset for days). The manager wanted to argue with me (he had apologised to my husband on the phone the day before) but wouldn't apologise to me and didn't want to refund me the whole amount.... Terrible, arrogant attitude, no wonder his staff aren't friendly or happy. I won't be setting foot in there again as I have no trust in them any more. I did eventually get a refund for the full amount but shouldn't have had to get so angry with them.

Not keen,just silly,non enjoyable.All the dishes looks so colorfull and sweety,actually it's sweet, much sugary taste,no any spicy which we expected,disappointed because no serving staff none of turned up,no deserts served on buffet and price charged £14 per person which is no worth at all.

Called here tonight to order and collect a take away there were 2 orders myself and a friend, when I ordered mine I ordered my friends asked for badjee starter which normally would come with a mint sauce sometimes salad my friend doesn’t like mint sauce so asked for a mango chutney instead and I was told no the onion badjee comes with mint sauce, I could not believe my ears it’s the same size pot just a different item. 8 of us ate here on Thursday night the meal was lovely so wanted a take away tonight, I cancelled the order as the guy that toke the order was pathetic just done themselves out of a £50 order because they wouldn’t change the dipping sauce.. well we eat plenty of curries and there’s lots of us but we won’t cross the threshold in this place again.. all the best 🙋♂️

Frequently visited over many years for takeaway meals. Always excellent, extensive choices on the menu and prompt service. Picked one up last night ! Collected takeaway this weekend(at rip 23)the korma was unrecognisable and full of oil with a grey colour and strange taste. Unfortunately really put us off returning as left most of it. Felt quite sick after it. Really disappointed.

We had a new Kochi dish with fried onions on top, with a biryani (with a lovely vegetable sauce). Vegetarian daughter had a paneer dish which she loved. Really good food, place very clean and the waiter very pleasant and chatty. Really recommend!

An amazing Indian restaurant, the food is incredible and full of flavour and is always served hot and isn't "gloopy" like other restaurants/takeaways. Not extortionate on the prices and also has a functioning bar. I can recommend the Lamb Karahi with lemon rice and a garlic cheese naan. Also the hot pickle with the poppadoms is incredible.

Have eaten here regularly over the years. Had our starters okay but when I started eating my chicken badam pasanda I realised it wasn't the correct dish. It was a very dark colour and was quite spicy not like the creamy dish it should be. This is my favourite dish which I always have there. It definitely wasn't a badam pasanda which is made with coconut milk and is very mild and creamy with cashews in. This was dark with raisins in. Told the waiter, who took the meal away, then the head waiter/manager approached and was quite rude telling me I was wrong and it was a badam pasanda. He even marched to the kitchen and brought my plate back out and argued it was the correct dish. My daughter has had this dish and agreed this was definitely not the said dish, so I declined the offer of a different meal as my husband was half way through his by this time. Not apologetic at all, was made to feel very uncomfortable. This happened on our last visit a few months ago and I was given the correct meal after it was sent back. Couldn't believe it happened again and was told it was the correct dish! Lost our custom, won't be visiting ever again.

The goa chicken I ordered looked alright, but the big black pube that ran through the pilau rice put me off trying. I was just glad I saw it in on the plate and was spared having to pick out of my teeth. You'd think that finding something so disgusting in your food would have prompted an enormous PR offensive from the management, and for them to not charge for the meal, if not the table (of just 2 people). They didnt even give an apology. I'm minded that a friend of mine won't go there because its unhygienic, and think that with dozens of other Indians in Swansea, I couldn't see me going back there in a million light years.

I'm not criticising the restaurant for serving us too much food - I think our eyes and expectations were greater than our stomachs!

Service was polite and friendly and attentive, and overall it was pretty good value.

Very expensive. Too many dishes on menu. Suggests same tasting food. Raita was very poorly made and sweet. Who makes it sweet? Portions of starters were small, lukewarm and all meat coated red. I've eaten in dozens of indian restaurants and this was poor. Not sure what region food is from as many dishes from different countries. Not just one. Sat down for 1 minute and waiter starts asking about order. Takes 10 minutes to work through an unnecessarily long menu!. Meat wasn't prepared properly. Should fall off the bone. Was very chewy where either meat is old or not cooked properly. Not impressed. No halal signs in window or on epic menu. Maybe locals think this is good because of limited Indian restaurants but believe me, this is poor. And more expensive than many London restaurants. I know. I've tried many. Expensive wouldn't be so bad if it was tasty. Food had a similar, bland taste. I left unable to finish food and still hungry. Once for this place, enough.

The worst food that I have tasted in Swansea. I have ordered chicken biryani and tandoori chicken, tandoori was like rock I don’t know how many days it was in the freezer he just kept it in the microwave and gave it to me. Feels like vomiting. And the entrance carpet is like a mouse trap. It’s full of grease and I literally feels like I’m walking on the gum pad. Disgusting man, never ever even try to order from this restaurant 🙏🏻. Genuine review please don’t waste your money.

Having waited 1hr 20mins for food we gave up in the end and paid for our starter and drink and left I appreciate that it was busy but no busier than any other Saturday but to see people arrive after us and served before us that was the last straw so I'm afraid that they have lost a valued customer both sit in and takeaway the service tonight was terrible. I won't be back.
