  “Definitely come to the Hyson Green branch if you want great service! We've been to a few of the other branches before but the service here really stood out. Went in this morning to grab our usual aloo baingan and samosas and the guy serving us was so friendly. Didn't manage to catch his name unfortunately, but we had a really nice chat. He recommended a few sweets for us to try and also told us about the Rakhi threads they were selling, what they mean and the festival coming up. Actually ended up learning something new which was nice 😂 would definitely recommend the Hyson Green branch and we'll be back for sure!”

  “We've been a couple of times for Papri chaat and samosas. The chaat is really tasty and was fresh. We recently tried the sweet meats/asian desserts but they were dry- I dont think they sell enough for it to be fresh so I wouldn't buy these again and would recommend to the owners to stick to the savoury foods. We also tried a selection of their chocolate samosas . I'm sorry but they were really horrible. They had a really bitter stale spice taste- I threw them away. We will return for the chaat and samosas and may try other savoury items but not their sweet stuff. The gentlemen and young lady that served us were polite and helpful.”

  “Ordered 200 veg samosas for a charity event, and the feedback has been amazing, absolutely delicious samosas! Nav has been brilliant with the order process, and collection from the Carrington Street branch was easy. I would definitely recommend the samosas and the service. 5*”

  “Really nice food, they didn't have my 1st choice however what I did have was delicious. So if you fancy spinach and potato chaat then get it from here. Lots of flavours, lots of textures and a really good size portion. I had the small and it was perfect but beware the large is massive!!!!!”

  “Really enjoyed the chaat was really flavoursome one of the best ones I’ve tried in a long time. Lamb Samosa and chicken kebab weren’t that good I wasn’t that impressed with them, the vegetable samosa was good, the Paneer dish was not that good but the butter chicken was really flavoursome I really enjoyed that didn’t have any spice though, but the flavours were really good. The lamb curry was also really good. Only let down was I went to this branch as I wanted the fish curry but when I got there they told me that they didn’t serve the fish curry only the City centre branch did but didn’t really apologise for the inconvenience, just discussed it with her manager even though the website showed they did serve it so I went to this one had I known I would have gone to the other one instead.”

  “*EDIT: I came in the restaurant to “TAKEAWAY THE FOOD I ORDERED”, also the reply was a useless attempt to cover their scam of selling leftovers since it definitely wasn’t fresh (even after reheating this disgusting food you can taste this is not fresh and is made with old oil; I’m pretty sure that cold chicken left on display for hours is a safety hazard as it becomes a source of bacteria that is harmful when ingested even if it is reheated in the microwave afterwards (btw their online menu advertisement is very misleading as none of the food is properly made). THEY SHOULD DEFINITELY LEARN FROM THEIR COMPETITORS LIKE “KARAK CHAI”, “CHAIIWALA”and “The Urban Rikshaw” on how to make proper Indian food that doesn’t taste disgusting. (Btw if it’s not a takeaway then why do you have a website to order food online??) |takeaway definition: “a restaurant or shop selling cooked food to be eaten elsewhere.” REVIEW: I ordered a takeaway from this restaurant. First of all, the price doesn’t match with the quality. All of the food (worth over 50£) was greasy, stinking and cold. The chili chicken and chili paneer were very oily and greasy (they were not fresh and they probably served us leftovers). The papri chaats were made from some OLD oil as it was oozing out of grease that caused me nausea, 80% of the boxes were filled with cold boiled potatoes and it didn’t have any topping whatsoever other than some yoghurt on the top that was probably put in to cover their scam (the food was way different than what it was advertised in their online menu). The Naans and vegetable pakoras were also not fresh and were probably leftovers from the day before. Almost all of the food had to be thrown away as they were not fresh and were very disgusting. TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY! Would definitely not recommend to someone that wants to eat some Indian food.”

  “If I lived any closer, if probably eat three meals a day here. Simply the best vegan Indian food I've had, with a menu that's exciting and goes way beyond just the usual options. You have to visit!”

  “All the food offered is good fresh and cooked on premises. Really freindly and helpful staff. The food is tasty and beautifully cooked by a caring and experienced team of Indian cooks. There's a range of meat dishes to please meat eaters, but also a wide vegetarian menu and vegan options. All this is takeaway from a snack to a meal and you can order for parties and social gatherings and they'll even warm it up for you at no extra cost. The prices are fair and cheap for what you get!!!! "I virtually live in the place!!!!!”

  “Great place of Indian cuisine from traditional samosas, bhajis to a multitude of Asian sweets. You should give this place a visit as prices are reasonably priced and lovely friendly service. Big thumbs up from me 👍🏽”
