We’ve been to this restaurant for many years and it used to be the best Indian in Berkhamsted, although expensive,it was worth it. Had lunch there recently. We were the only patrons. Plenty of attentive staff gave us a warm welcome. But, oh dear, the food was way down on quality on this occasion. Starter for me was duck in tamarind sauce. Very tough and the sauce only had a hint of tamarind. This was followed by king prawns in a creamy sauce with cashew nuts. A dish I’ve had many times here. Huge prawns but dreadfully overcooked and tough and chewy. Plus the sauce, although tasty, was neither creamy and contained just one cashew. Also the side dish of Tarka Dall was dry and contained no garlic. This could have been a one off, bad day, inexperienced new chef, perhaps. This experience will not mean we will never go again. It’s the nearest Indian to our home and we’ll give it another visit in the future, as this is the first time they let us down. If the next visit is back to its normal excellence, I’ll report back with another review.

We ordered a chicken kebab with salad and a donner meat and chips with salad while we were up visiting family. It was late night and most other places were closed. They delivered to our hotel- rang Jen they were there and I met them outside in the car park- a few minutes late. The chicken kebab was good, small pieces of chicken in a good, well spiced marinade. The donner meat was well cooked and seasoned as were the chips. Good salad on both with cabbage, onions, pickled chillis, tomatoes and cucumber. Glad our usual kebab place (in Aston Clinton) no longer exists because I was happy with this takeaway!
