VERY good food and large menu of attractive dishes, some more unusual - all really good. Staff were welcoming and attentive, but not intrusive, to our group of 10, all of whom were impressed. There was a 20% discount for pre-booking which made the visit more accessible - please keep this offer going so we can more easily return.

The staff could not have been more attentive.
As experienced Indian food lovers ! a new place and menu’s always a worry However The food was really good. The four of us chose across the menu and we all enjoyed our dishes and the experience.
We will definitely be going again as somewhere new and different.
Being a Pub / Indian restaurant I assumed it wouldn’t have the Traditional Indian ambience but this wasn’t the case.

I hope local people patronise this new venture I’d really like to see it succeed. The staff couldn’t do enough to ensure we had a delicious meal. There’s plenty of choice on the menu and the prices are very reasonable. It was my second visit and as it’s so handy & the food is so tasty I’m sure we will become regulars!

Food was excellent and served quickly. However we felt a little rushed - as though the staff wanted us to leave. As soon as we had eaten we were presented with the bill! We were still drinking and went to talk to the next table party as we knew them. We had another drink etc but as we were the last ones left we felt we ought to leave!

We have eaten in twice and ordered takeaway several times. The food is excellent and so is the service. I think it is the location, but there aren't usually many people in the restaurant and this is a shame because we want this restaurant to stay with us locally. I haven't seen it advertised so perhaps more adverts in local papers etc?

The food was hot and and flavoursome however portions are a little small and it doesn’t feel like a restaurant, more
Like eating Indian food in the pub. No table cloths or food heaters on the table and the waiters are a little quiet . We will go again but for a takeaway which is much cheaper.
