They have an excellent charcoal tandoori oven, so go for the shashlik! Truly wonderful. I highly recommend the achar as well, and the naan is very fluffy. It was really quiet when we came over, so we enjoyed the tasteful music they had on.

This’s the level of this restaurants hygiene, That small creature is found in green chilli sauce bottle, I don’t know how many of you enjoyed that sause 🤮🤮 Management doesn’t concern about anyone i have told them they just simply replaces the bottle and says sorry which is so silly My suggestion is not to prefer this place at all ❌❌

I had a terrible experience at this restaurant. We ordered a few Indian dishes, including biryani and egg rice, and specifically requested the biryani to be spicy. However, it arrived bland, and when we complained, the owner was incredibly rude. Instead of addressing our concerns professionally, he mocked us and even offered a green bonnet pepper (didn’t know what it is) asking us to “try it.” Naturally, my friend assumed he meant a small taste, but the chili was extremely hot, causing serious discomfort. When we raised the issue, the owner became even more disrespectful and shockingly called my me a inappropriate words saying he could pay our bill—something we found completely inappropriate and unprofessional. Despite the poor food and unacceptable treatment, we still paid the bill and left feeling disrespected. No customer should be treated this way. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. Avoid at all costs!

Not a place to eat it’s just not worth it.. staff is rude n the food wasn’t spicy when we asked him to make it spicy he literally added extra green chillies. They didn’t take the responsibility n started to shout at me instead. Definitely not going back there n suggest not to. Waste ur time n money.

Do not order or eat here. One time we had a large party booked and we were overcharged. Second time, we over ordered and asked for remainder to be packed to take home. Arrived home and found that approx 90% of the food was not given to us - the owner and staff obviously had a free feast at our expense. Will never order from here again.

Food is great with humble and welcoming owner/ head chef but service is terrible. We had to wait for more than one hour after ordering to get the starter on the table and for main course another 40 odd mins. The owner was very kind to let go off the charges for few extra items we had ordered though. He was quite understanding and really apologizing for the delayed services. Given that there were not many tables to serve we should have gotten much better service to be honest. Hope to see some improvements on our next visit

One of the worst restaurants I’ve ever been to. They kept us waiting for more than a hour after taking the order and we realised that they did not start preparing our order. We could hear the owner/manager was shouting in Hindi "ask them to leave if they are in hurry". We cancelled our order and left the restaurant. They should improve their basic manners and start respecting the customers.

Food was mediocre, it’s by far the worst Indian restaurant I’ve ever been to. It took us an hour to get some service after telling 2 different staff that we were ready to order, even though the restaurant was basically empty. I asked for a bigger table before we even sat down but they refused to let us have it so they had to squeeze all the dishes on a tiny table with no room to eat.

Excellent Saturday Buffet £9.90. Not too many choices which is a bonus for us as freshness is usually guaranteed. High praise for: The meat, bahjis and samosas were separated from the sauces so you can pour your choice of sauces over the meat. There is one meat dish and one vegetarian dish but we stuck to the separate meat/sauce method. Chicken and sausages were very real and very fresh and cooked to perfection. The greens were exquisite. Rice was simple and cooked perfectly. The Dahl was thick and tasty, for once it didn’t look like vomit. The papa-dons were freshly made. The choices of chutneys were vast and in abundance. Complimentary paratha bread, freshly baked. Cloth napkins. Hot towels at the end. Clean rest rooms. Complimentary aperitif. The owner was very friendly and we discussed ways for him to attract more business as the restaurant is not in a main toad but in a small parade of shops in a very residential area. You can’t go wrong with this buffet. Go there now!

Went yesterday and it was so bad, the starter wasn't cooked well. Ordered a prawn puri it came with chapati not puri. We had to leave as my baby was unsettled so we asked for our mains to be packed in a take away. Once we got home and opened our food the biryani was chicken and lamb curry mixed with rice. They also didn't give me a break down of my bill and charged £110 with discount!!!! We had to throw all the food in the bin as it tasted disgusting. I need to make an official compliant to correct authorities.

This was voted best Indian in Watford 2018, if thats really the case, I won’t be trying Indian food in Watford again. The food was not fresh at all, the waiter even mentioned to us there were no lamb chops ready as they were in the freezer. We ended up ordering things we didn’t really want, but dishes you can’t really go wrong with, butter chicken and mixed grill. Oh how we were wrong! They gave us what tasted like an overly sweet korma with stale tasting chicken, didn’t even bother with the mixed grill after tasting a bite of the “tandoori” chicken as it was just a red coloured chicken marinated in water perhaps? The naan we ordered was too doughy, not cooked long enough and the bottom of it looked like someone stepped all over them with their ashy boots. All in all, we felt sick and had to fill up on the poppadoms they had on the table when we arrived, later to find out they weren’t complimentary and they even charge for the sauces! On top of all of the above, starters took 1 hour and mains an extra hour, with us being the ONLY customers in there for 2 hours! They didn’t have takeaways / deliveries either during that time, AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Shockingly bad main course in tonight's home delivery. Supposedly chicken tikka, lamb tikka and king prawns in a single dish. Actually no prawns, with a few pieces of potato standing in for them, a few lumps of sheek kebab instead of actual lamb and a sauce mostly composed of tomato with half a jar of sugar poured in. This for £8. As for the starter, three pieces of sheek kebab for £5 with, conversely, half a jar of salt poured in. I will never order from them again, and they deserve to go out of business on this showing.

I love the pizza here! Honestly fantastic! And such good value for money! Their chocolate milkshake is also scrumptious! I’ve gone back many times and never been disappointed. I hope they never leave and expand across the country. Only critique is that my friend said the vegan pizza (especially the cheese) was not good.
