The food was excellent and the service good too. The restaurant was busy for a Tuesday night which shows how popular it is for the above reasons

We love the fact that the curries are not the usual run of the mill. They have different twists to them, that work really well, and we look forward to our visits. The waiter was very helpful, and was able to give an over-view of all the dishes.

Great food - excellent quality, freshly prepared, amazing flavours. Service was exceptional - left you alone, but there when needed - very quick too. Loses only one point for slightly limited vegetarian choice - could be better. Otherwise highly recommend this place

Fantastic food, beautiful flavours. Only marked it down for the fact the service was too rushed. Despite asking our food came out too fast. We did mention this to the waiter so hopefully they will take this on board.

The food tasted great, really different flavours and very different to your standard curry house. Although 1 out of 8 prawns we had between us was not quite cooked, they sorted it out for us and we're very nice. The biggest negative was we were stuck out the back in the 'Bollywood Suite' which had no windows, was very loud due to the other tables, and generally not a nice relaxing atmosphere to enjoy food. I think they are using this area to get more people in, but it's not very nice. If you book, do so in advance and make sure you get a table in the front or upstairs.

One of the best Indian meals for taste I have had in a long time, the balance between the heat and spice meant you could taste the spices and then got the heat, great ambiance to boot, will defiantly be back.

The food was fabulous, lovely flavours together, plenty of it but not so much that you just feel overwhelmed. The decor and ambience was fresh, interesting and really pleasant. And the service was superb - swift, helpful and responsive. The person I visited with lost an earring during the evening and when she went back a couple of days later to ask if they had found it, it had been found and put somewhere safe. A great evening and I will be coming back.

Food was good as always , unfortunately only table was in a cupboard at the rear , if we wanted to eat in a window less room with poor acoustics and noisy groups we would have asked . Nice waitress and good food , but never again in the cupboard I'm afraid , come on nutmeg , that area is for loud groups only!

Enjoyed our evening at this contemporary Indian restaurant. Food was fresh and tasty and service was efficient and friendly. Would have liked full sized popadoms and more traditional chutneys but other than that the food was very nice.
