This is the second time we have been here and it was all as good as we remembered. The staff, including our server Anas, was so attentive and helpful with recommendations, which we enjoyed. There was also a magician which was a nice added bonus. Food was amazing.

The duck curry dish was lovely. We found the menu a bit confusing as it was all very authentic and not dishes we had ever heard of, but the server was helpful when we described what we generally like from a curry. Clean plates all round. Service was a bit slow as it was super packed on a Saturday night, we had to keep catching the eye of waiters to order food / drinks / ask for the bill. We ordered a few waters that never came.

Very good & interesting food at fair prices in a good location Noise levels high as it is a big restaurant & was very busy. Like many others it has no noise reducing soft furnishing, curtains etc We waited quite a while at the table before anyone came to get even the drinks oder. However subsequent speed of service was very good

Met up with friends. Was a little quiet when we arrived (very early as 6pm table). But filled up which made for a better atmosphere. Food was great. Kayak fish curry in particular was outstanding.
