Customer Review Summary
Dosas draw the most mention, from the Masala Dosa to a 5 feet dosa one diner found better than expected. Close behind are the garlic naan, Veg Thali, Kadai Chicken and Chilli chicken, while others single out the Tandoori Salmon, Channa Masala, biryani and kebabs. Reviewers describe the food as fresh, flavoursome and generous in portion, and the restaurant as clean, cosy and warm. Friendly staff come up in most reviews, and one diner called the Lunch 2 Course Set excellent value. The complaints are specific. One reviewer reports finding beard hair in two dosas and says the manager offered a free dosa on a future visit instead of compensation. That reviewer also noted the menu has no idlis. Another waited an hour for food on an evening visit with a child, though still called the meal worth it. One diner who needed gluten-free options found the curries suitable and the waiter helpful.

“Lovely meal, food was excellent, generous portions. We struggled to finish our mains because the starters were so filling. Great service from friendly staff. Will definitely be back.”

“Always delicious south Indian food, hot fresh and so flavoursome. Service is friendly and the restaurant is always clean and tidy. We have only visited at lunchtime and it's not busy. The curries are gluten-free and the waiter was very helpful regarding needing gf options.”
- Louise Middleton
“Lovely place, staff and food. Friendly staff but service was a wee bit slower than hoped for. Took an hour for food to arrive, but was worth it. Wouldn't normally mind but had a child with us and was in the evening so getting a bit hangry. Wouldn't put us off coming back again”

“Found beard hair in our Dosa - 2 of these. We know it was beard because we saw one of the staff in kitchen with long beard - uncovered. When we informed the manager, instead of compensating us, he just tried to lure us with the promise of a “free dosa” next time we visit And honestly because it was all verbatim, there would be no guarantee that the manager would actually keep his promise. Not a good experience overall… also, which South Indian restaurant doesn’t sell Idlis! Its a South Indian cuisine *Staple*”
