Customer Review Summary
Diners single out the food itself as the headline draw, repeatedly calling it the best Indian cuisine they have tried and praising the layered, complex flavours and the restaurant's fine-dining style of presentation. The onion bhaji draws particular praise, with several reviewers recalling how the owner-chef explained the cooking and even handed over a custom spice blend. Close behind comes the breadth of the menu, especially the vegan and vegetarian selection, which several diners describe as unusually extensive and flavourful. Specific dishes mentioned with enthusiasm include prawn malai, chicken makhani, and the rose ice cream. Reviewers also consistently note warm, attentive service and a stylish interior. One diner, however, found the dal watery and the potato side portion small, marking it down from five stars. Several reviewers strongly recommend booking ahead.
