Great food, great service. Only complaint is that the table by the door can be a little on the cool side!

Pre- booked with £100 deposit, they had all our choices and it still took them an hour to get our starters out!

Terrible service.Waited over an hour for starters and then another hour for the main course and they forgot one meal. Very poor service and offered a bottle of tap water as compensation

I dined in the evening with a friend; the food was spicy and flavoursome, but without the oily ghee which you get in many Indian restaurants. The portions were generous and there was a good variety on the menu.
