I ordered 2 different curries and when they came there both tasted the same! Food was cold , and we was very disappointed with the curries. We have ordered from here several times and never had a problem, but we wont be ordering again.

Ordered for delivery. Delivery was expected for a Saturday night approx 45 minutes. Not sure if I was missing items, but I think the pickle tray consisted of a red onion spicy mix and a mint and onion mix. No yoghurt or lime pickle or mango. Poppadoms good as were the naan. However the main attraction the curries lacked spice, were watery, leaked all over the bag and were cold on arrival. They were also very fatty. I ordered spicy ones but they were medium in spice at best. The place I normally go to isn’t like this I just fancied to try somewhere new. At over £40 with a discount it wasn’t anything near quality I would expect. I don’t think I’ll be ordering again.

As someone born and raised in India, I can confidently say that this meal was far from authentic Indian cuisine. My wife and I dined here yesterday, and while we appreciated the traditional experience of eating with our hands, we were alarmed by the lingering yellow stain left on my skin. Despite washing my hands multiple times with soap, the color refused to fade. No genuine Indian spices cause such discoloration—it’s almost certainly artificial food coloring, which raises serious concerns about its safety. Transparent disclosure of ingredients is essential, and this should have been made clear to customers.
