Customer Review Summary
Diners most often praise the curries, with the makhani and tikka masala singled out on delivery for tasty dishes and good portions. Close behind, one takeaway customer liked the Kashmir pilau rice, the lemon chilli chicken in a gorgeous sauce and the Mosla chicken. Reviewers repeatedly mention friendly staff, fast service, family friendliness and good value, and one says the food is as good as dining at a restaurant. A few note the setting is the back room of a pub and not the best looking, but say it is all about the food, and one reviewer wants a better variety of desserts. The one sharply negative account describes a delivery that arrived long after it was ordered and only after a phone call, with a stone cold vegetable starter, rock hard mushroom pakora and a Chicken Balti masala with hardly any chicken in a watered down sauce. Among the happier accounts, one reviewer recalls the server checking that coconut was okay before the pilau rice came out.
