Customer Review Summary
Friendly, chatty staff are the most repeated draw, described as quick, welcoming and willing to go out of their way, and diners also call the food delicious and served hot. Named dishes include chicken tikka, lamb rogan josh, a lamb biryani, a chicken bhuna with plenty of chicken, chicken garlic chilli masala, an aloo parantha with Indian tea, and a huge Tandoori Mixed Grill. The garlic naan is called massive and the peshwari naan is singled out as a highlight. Reviewers describe generous portions at reasonable prices, a relaxed, calm room, and quiet weeknight visits, even for a large group. Several came with an ItisOn voucher, and two note its special menu was smaller than the full one, with both planning to return for the full menu. Others say they have gone for years without being disappointed. One diner recalls staff overhearing it was a birthday and bringing a slice of sponge cake with a candle, then singing.

“Good quality South Asian food at a price. Large menu with dishes that were new to me. The Tandoori Mìxed Grill was huge and delicuous. Nice relaxing lighting and decor. Pleasant staff. It was quiet when we were there as a large group on a Wednesday.”

“We hadn't been here for a number of years but we had a Itison voucher to use. The staff were friendly and chatty. A nice relaxed atmosphere and the food was extremely good. We would definitely return and try their full menu as the Itison voucher only allowed us their special menu which was smaller. Definitely a lovely restaurant to try.”

“Visited with a ItisOn voucher, so a special menu on offer but still a varied selection. Ordered pops and onion chutney as extras. Starters chicken pakoras and a chicken puree. Mains chicken Rogan Josh, and a chicken tikka with a shared pilau rice and a cheese and garlic nan, we had 2 chapatis as extras. Wine and a cappuccino and an Irish coffee as extras. All the staff were luvly, chatty and friendly, they overheard my husband mention it was my birthday and 2 staff came with a slice of luvly sponge cake with a candle and sung H B to me. Our food was luvly, freshly made and delicious. We will return and try something from their full menu. :) :) Visited with a ItisOn voucher, so a special menu on offer but still a varied selection.
