Customer Review Summary

Diners most often single out the staff and service, describing servers as attentive, friendly and quick, with between-course waits kept short. Food comes close behind, with the butter chicken, jungle lamb starter, Vadouvan Monkfish, chargrilled smoked lamb chops and Lahsooni Chargrill Jhinga all named, and the desserts, including a mango cheesecake and pistachio, praised as delicious. Reviewers also like the setting on the golf course, with a lake, a fountain and a heart shaped pond, and several mention birthday and anniversary meals. Some say it feels like fine dining without hefty prices, though one found it slightly dearer than usual. The caveats are small. One reviewer says the kitchen cannot adapt the heat of the butter chicken, and another notes some tables sit close together. Several parties describe being given free extras, such as a starter from the chef, a mango and vanilla mousse and an anniversary treat at the end of the meal.

    “Went again with my family for our wedding anniversary. Great food again. The butter chicken is amazing, only shame is they can't adapt the heat. They even gave us an anniversary treat at the end. Service 2nd to none. As part of the Great Notley Curry Club this was the 28th different Indian restaurant visited across Essex and was the easiest to score. Absolutely fantastic. Amazing place. From the singer being superb and just the right volume, to the flowers in the toilets to the most attentive staff ever and then the food, which could not be faulted. The jungle lamb starter was perfect, it seemed small on arrival but the taste meant that was soon forgotten. Butter chicken..amazing. Dopiaza..best he has had. Railway beef..fantastic. Madras...amazing. Tandoori chicken..great. The food was faultless. The cost was slightly more expensive than we normally pay but was WELL worth the money. The place was very busy and the atmosphere was top notch. This will jump to number 1 in the league and can not see it being beaten. Absolutely amazing!!!!”

The desserts that was made in house was so delicious, never had before like this. I will visit again and highly recommend this wonderful places for meals at any occasions or family and friends meal out.”

    “We came here for my nieces birthday for the first time and we were so impressed. The restaurant was beautiful, decor was lovely. They gave us a delicious starter, compliments of the chef and they also have us a delicious mango cheesecake at the end. The food & deserts were so delicious, we enjoyed every dish. The service was 10/10. We were served by Wasi, he was very attentive and friendly. A true fine dining experience without the hefty prices. I would definitely be coming back and recommending to family & friends.”

    “My 21st birthday meal here was absolutely amazing. The staff were incredible, so kind and attentive. They greeted us with the biggest smiles and couldn’t do any more if they tried, it was so great to see. The service was quick and efficient but most of all, the waiters were just so lovely. My first time here and I will definitely be back, as soon as possible! They made my birthday so memorable and I am so grateful! We can as a party of 8, had a table with an amazing view of the golf course and lake. Truly amazing, can’t wait to come back!”
