"Really great place, might be a little hidden gem in this area, the curry is out of this world, really tasty, full of flavour and the meat was juicy and melting in your mouth. We had Chicken Korma and Butter Lamb, both really good, what stood out was the korma sauce which was a special recipe a bit different from classic Korma but nonetheless very tasty. Would definitely recommend a visit if you are in the area."

"Delicious food and very good ambience. I would suggest this place for a family dinner or with friends. They take lot of time to prepare the food, almost one hour even for a masala papad or samosa. Plan accordingly."

"Flavorful authentic Indian food, with good ‘value for money’ ratio. We tried a few dishes. The only 2 comments are: the lamb skewers were not to our taste (won’t order again), and the fried food was too greasy."
