Although table given away as we were 15 mins late - parking v difficult- we were offered alternative, service fast and friendly. My daughter found the food too spicy and was unable to eat anything.

This was our first visit to Nutmeg and we were all thoroughly impressed. The staff were friendly and the food was excellent, in particular the lamb shank. Looking forward to exploring the rest of the menu in future visits.

Great restaurant, great food, good atmosphere and good value. Service was less good - unwilling to substitute dishes for vegetarian options on the tasting menu and would not let us buy the coconut rice on it's own despite it being an option on the taster menu. Good other than that and just made the restaurant come across as unnecessarily snobby.

Food was excellent as always but this time the service was a let down. 15mins to receive our drinks and then another 20mins before the starters arrived. At the end we asked twice for the dessert menu and then gave up and asked for the bill. When that arrived, it was wrong with an additional bottle of wine listed (which we had ordered but they were out of stock). The staff were pleasant enough but clearly there are some basic service issues that let the restaurant down that evening (mid week).

The food was absolutely delicious. The service was a bit slow, we had to wait a considerable amount of time for mains and to order deserts, although the starters came out quite quickly. I also wish the cocktails had been cheaper, as I wanted to order one but £10.95 was too much.

Nutmeg isn’t your usual Indian restaurant, it is something else and something special. A great choice for a casual relaxing meal or to celebrate a special occasion. Service was great and the food was amazing. It doesn’t surprise me that this restaurant is in the Michelin guide.

Excellent service and superb food. We were shown to our table and our waitress for the evening imminently came to serve us and remained patient whilst we nattered instead of looked at the menu. She made sure we had everything we needed and was attentive (although not too much that it is was intrusive.) All round a great evening.

The staff were very welcoming as soon as we arrived. Throughout our stay they were always attentive, but in no way pushy and gave you space to enjoy your meal. the food was outstanding and beautifully presented. I would have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant and I am sure that we as a family will return.

My second visit, this time with my wife and her sister. Excellent and friendly service on a Sunday evening, when it is less busy and street parking is free. We steered away from the taster menu, as we thought it might be too much to eat, so went for a main and dessert. My two companions had the gula jamon and ice cream, but they commented that it was a wierd combination, and didn't work for them. I had the chai creme brulee, which was wonderful. We'll be there again, I'm sure. Alan Gibson

Relaxed and informal atmosphere, impeccable and very kind service, particularly good food, pretty different from the classical indian we are used to in the uk, certainly good value for money. When we went I was unfortunately waiting for an important phone call (which I would have taken outside anyway), and I had a little problem as there was no signal of any kind in the restaurant: hence the 5 star instead of 6, but we'll come back for sure - with no phone - to enjoy the experience in full.
