Never ever again. We went to this shop craving for authentic sweets, and it looked good in the counter. However, the sales person was really rude, when we were ordering things, and we were even afraid to add another thing that we wanted, after he made the bill, thinking that he might be rude again. It was worst customer experience at the store. We were visiting this place on holiday, so we couldn't even go back to them now. We bought many things- of which the main ones where mesou ( mysore pak) and baklava. We paid around 9bucks for the same, and we only tried it after coming back home. It doesn't even taste like the sweets they claim to be, its not sweet, neither does it have any any authentic flavour. I have tried better sweets in the UK, even the box ones from Asian stores, and nothing tasted this bad. Both baklava and mysore pak is not even edible, unfortunately we had to throw it all away. Don't even think about buying atleast these sweets from Sanam.

I would give zero stars if I could, absolute scammers!!! Very rude waiter who tried to force bottled water on us and when we refused he tried to make us feel bad. The food has really gone downhill, was served raw chicken wings which we had to send back for them to be cooked again, chicken chilli was watery. I will not be eating here again.

We first came in without buying anything to pray (we ordered food at Mr T’s next door), and they had given us access to their Musallah free of charge, which is quite spacious too. This alone should be enough to give them five stars, as they have made Allah a partner in their business affairs. We came back to Sanam after our meal next door, and ordered a bunch of desserts (Rasmalai, Gulab Jammum etc) which were all very nice. Highly recommend May Allah bless the owners of this establishment all those that work here أمين

Decided to gave Sanam's one last chance, walked in to an empty place and it was a disappointment. Sheekh kebab 2 portions we asked for, what we got was 2 cut in half and served to 2 people. Which is one portion. When asked this is how you serve it now quickly we got 2 Sheekh kebab not cut gaving to us without explaining why it wasn't like that from the start. My nephew enjoy his Desi chicken burger. Chicken karahi was ok nothing special and okra was hard swimming in onions and watery. Tasteless.

Worst Indian Restaurant in the World. Goes by the name of "Tiffin Box" on Uber / Just eats. Food hygiene and taste is very bad. On most days, you will get served stale, oily and badly prepared food. Masala Dosa was like cardboard dipped in oil. Had diarrhea afterwards. I personally advise staying away from this restaurant no matter what discount offers are online. Worst place.
