Richard's Kitchen in Coventry

I have been having a curry from Sonali for years - I recognise its not Bombay Palace or Delhi 76 standard (and to be fair your not paying the same cost). I have always gotten a 7 out of 10 curry which is good enough considering its local and offers decent value. However, my most recent curry was really poor in that the sauce had no flavour and the "lamb" portion was minute and cut up finely - no doubt to make it look like i had "loads of pieces of meat". I won't be going here for a bit as I will need to venture further a field and pay that bit extra for some quality

Went here with my family a couple of days ago, my server hope was the sweetest made sure everything was okay and was so polite, the environment was lovely and welcoming, my family loved it.100% coming back.

For some reason my husband has breakfasts here a lot. After having my first one today I really don't understand why. The bacon was not just dry but it actually tasted burned, not cheffy char grilled, but burned. Toast was just warmed bread. The rest if the food was just about Okay but cheap ingredients carelessly cooked. In contrast to the burned bacon, the toast was just warmed bread.

For a few years now I've been ordering all the family birthday cakes from here, even order for friends and recommend work colleagues to them but I was disappointed this time. Because the kids love their cakes so much I decided to order a larger cake for my son's birthday, big mistake. The sponge were so dry, I called them to let them know and they said I have to bring the cake back in for them to test it themselves before they can do anything about it. That wouldn't be a problem except I live in a different town and I start work early and finish late. Didn't have the time to do that plus they may have turn round and tell me it's fine for them after driving all the way there again. I feel they could have at least offer me a discount on my next order.

We ordered lunch using the touch screen Jacket potato chilli and salad. Full english breakfast 2 yorkshire teas. Paid went to collect a tray to put the teas on and the trays were sopping wet and had dried food still on them took us 7 trays to find a half decent one. We had to ask for the yorkshire tea and we were begrudgingly thrown 2 bags onto the wet tray. checked out the tables 4 were disgusting not clean at all. sat down to find the people behind us had opened an unbrella that had drained water all over the floor. Pointed it out to a waitress and was tol YEH I SEEN IT THANKS. she returned after serving 3 other tables and plonked a sign in middle of puddle Did not clean it up at all. Food arrived and breakfast was swimming in grease and ther was no salad with the jacket potato. By this time we were beyond wanting food so we drank half the tea and left. No point asking for a refund as i doubt very much if it would have eben sunk in. totaly filthy unhygenic cafe.
