Este es el restaurante más frío en el que he comido. ¡Sin calefacción! Comida bastante aburrida y sosa. No hay imaginación, hay muchos mejores restaurantes indios en la ciudad. No regresaremos.

Gran hallazgo, el personal muy amable, pero pensó que la comida era excelente, bien presentado, buen tamaño de porción y calidad excepcional. Sin duda recomendaría y espero volver. Gracias

Although the food was tasty enough, I thought it was very overpriced considering the amount of competition from other Indian restaurants.Chicken Shashlick, Chicken Bhuna, Pillaw rice, Nan bread and 2 ciders for almost £40 is ridiculously high in my opinion.Will not be returning.

First time ordering take out from here, the chap was very helpful on the phone and displayed excellent customer service upon arrival to pick up the food. The food itself was incredible and we will definitely be back again soon!

Called in on spec with family. Table sorted within 5 minutes. Restaurant nice and busy and well managed. Food and service was excellent as always. Well done for not affecting customers by taking too many take away orders.

As I pulled up in the taxi I was cautious feels like back street.Warm welcome though and as we are the prawn starter I was very surprised the quality of the food was totally excellent.Warning: the portions are large we ordered way to much. Everything was really really good totally recommend this restaurant. The staff are great to engage in conversation in particular about the paintings on the walls - absolute delight.

Food excellent...do not agree with previous review as have always found the staff very polite, friendly and respectful. Newly decorated, spotlessly clean and even air conditioned for this hot summer. Will be back again soon for the wonderful chicken tikka dansak!
