The best restaurants in East Midlands

2 stars for the food only because of the garlic naan softness and quality else for others like chicken biryani, chicken garlic mushroom tikka, the quantity was good enough and also for chana paneer as well but taste wise they lacked texture and salt as very less saltiness was there. Coming to the service part, honestly I review almost all the restaurants and places I visit and am flexible with my ratings and all but this was one of the worst services we have faced till date here in UK. It had been more than 15 minutes since we have reached there already but unfortunately, no one came to take up our order on their own and finally I was reluctant to call for one of them to take our order and believe me apart from us, there was only 1 more table filled with 4 people who had almost finished off their meal and were having last sips of their drinks and chatting. I don't understand why the restaurant people took so much time to come to us to take the order although that time wasn't at all a busy hour over there. And on top of it, the food also arrived just on or beyond time which can be pardoned per say but this service should be improved for future to avoid such critical review. Now finally coming to the best part of the restaurant which we liked the most was actually the ambience/atmosphere. The interiors and setip felt like kind of fine dining which was a posh experience so wanted to compliment that at least.

Food arrived dry and very very cold no heat at all left in any of the food. Chips were stone cold. Very minimal salad. Not impressed

Chef crayge was very welcoming when we walked and was very professional and the food and service was amazing

Had the spicy brisket curry. Was absolutely scrumptious. Kim was an amazing host with excellent service.

Ordered the mixed grill to share, what a joke! The portion was barely enough for one person, let alone two. The kebab was dry and flavorless. Honestly, the food overall was just yikes. Definitely not ordering again

Wow! Can’t believe we never visited this place before! Our first visit and we’ll definitely come back again. Called in last minute and got a table, got served delicious food and received a brilliant service. All boys that worked on Sunday afternoon were very friendly, polite and provided us with excellent customer service. All 5 diners enjoyed their food 👌🏻 compliments to the kitchen staff! Brilliant place with cosy atmosphere! 10 out of 10 🤩

Superb venue, superb staff, superb prices!! Would highly recommend

Great looking restaurant and great food and service. Sadly let down by a lack of light and heat! The mood lighting was set far too low, it was so dark that we struggled to read the menu and felt like wearing our coats due to the cold draft. The people sat next to us also commented on the lighting and cold temperatures. For a Thursday evening we were surprised how empty the place was. The low level of customers should be a sign that you are doing something wrong guys. It’s not the food service, people want to go to a warm and inviting place to dine, not a dark wind tunnel.

They have an amazing breakfast! Always a good time

Each meal was £15 and wow the taste was amazing, great customer service. A lovey warm welcoming pub and a very friendly landlord.

I spotted the vegan buffet on instagram and by luck landed on the week we were staying near by I’ve never tried Sri lanken so looked forward to giving a go with my Parents who are not vegan but they even loved it It had a Great variety and set up at the back of the restaurant on this occasion It was quite quiet so we had a chilled time and helped ourselves to different dishes as the only one for this specific event opposed to other diners eating off the main menu The Quality was great and refreshed Plus An added bonus was the dessert stations which was A fab way to end the meal And bargain price So much so we went back mid week as I noticed during April they also had 50% off the food bill however when we went on the Wednesday a different deal was on which wasn’t advertised so that was abit frustrating as well as it being busy so had a long wait as it was short staffed in comparison to diners When the food came the presentation was great however due to the time had gone slightly passed it after a long day out so got to take away Overall a mixed experience but glad I tried and authentic cuisine

Lovely food. Friendly staff. Enjoyed the singer on Friday 2nd May.

Great traditional fish & chips. Good portions.

Food was good, the appetizers were excellent. The mushroom pasta has sort of a tangy flavor which wasn’t really my preference but well prepared. The bread and butter appetizer was so good but really bread and butter should be free at a restaurant. It is also extremely loud in here

I have been several times to the fox and hounds with my friends and family and we have never had a bad meal or a bad experience. The staff are always friendly and the food is always hot and on time.
