Customer Review Summary

Reviewers return mainly for the curries, with the chicken tikka madras singled out for pairing the flavour of a tikka with the heat of a madras. The Royal Khayber Masala is called fantastic and really different, and one reviewer's daughter prefers the standard tikka. Portions are described as generous, and several praise the quality of the ingredients and the variety across an extensive menu. Staff are repeatedly called friendly and attentive without being intrusive, and the small dining room is described as intimate and atmospheric. Price is the recurring complaint. Reviewers call it expensive, noting that rice and sides such as garlic nan cost extra, and one says the same curry and side are cheaper at another restaurant. One takeaway customer says the order taker looked horrified whenever rice, nan or onion bhajis were declined. Another says a gluten-free request before a birthday booking was refused. Another group of four was offered a photo by the main waiter without having to ask.

    “While everything was fine we feel the price of the food is very expensive. £19 for a curry then on top of that you pay £4.95 for Garlic nan. Same tpe of curry and side is 6.50 cheaper in Coleraine so guess thats were we will go.”
