This was our first experience at an Indian restaurant, and it was absolutely wonderful. The waiter was very kind and helped us understand the menu, explaining how to place an order using the tablet. The service was excellent throughout our visit. I was also very impressed by the interior the lush greenery creates a beautiful atmosphere and makes you feel like you’re dining in the jungle. We really enjoyed our experience and would happily return.

Great atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff, and delicious food. Great for allergies, clearly labelled. No nuts used in the kitchen(!!) and a good selection. A good mix of a restaurant/bar and an innovative way of ordering drinks. Portion sizes are rather small however, and overall quite pricey. But what you do get is lovely, fresh tasting food.

The cocktails are a work of art and very tasty. The food is excellent, the railway lamb exceptional. The portion size is plentiful. We chose a quiet time to dine and the staff were helpful and professional. We would say it is the best in town. A added bonus, our guide dog was made very weclome.

We come here many a times every week, great atmosphere, good food and good service. Never once had bad experience, We rated it one star less because, although non mandatory we do get asked to pay a 10 percent service charge. I find it should be included in the food and employers should just pay their employees a fair wage. These American systems are actually evil and is now slowly creeping into the UK these days.
