“The best Indian food I’ve had in Thanet and in a while!! Delicious, fragrant, deep flavours and great portion sizes. When the waitress asked our favourite dish I genuinely couldn’t pick because it was all 10/10. I will definitely be coming back to try their Dosa ☺️”
- Jean S
“The staff were extremely knowledgeable and were able to guide us to explore and experience Sri Lankan food more fully. We were kindly given an additional chutney that complemented the food. We were early so were the only people in the restaurant, hence 4 stars for atmosphere. I will definitely return and ask the staff to recommend dishes, perhaps hoppers? Go and try this dining experience for yourself, this is much more than a standard restaurant.”

“Went there when they first opened, food was delicious so we thought we will go again! This time the food didn’t look fresh, it honestly looked like someone’s left over, it was awful. Ended up having a bad stomach! Won’t be going there again”
