We love going to The Third Eye. The food is incredible and it is one of our go to restaurants. It is always decorated really nicely and has a lovely atmosphere. Staff are very attentive. I would recommend the Lamb Dansak, it's my favourite.

We are regulars here and I have to say the food is always top-class. The best tables are nearest the door. Cobra on draught. We tend to go for starters rather than poppadoms. All lamb dishes are particularly good.

The high noise level was from the table next to us that sat 8. They were not extra loud but the tables were very close to each other and the restaurant was full - great atmosphere though.

The ambiance was so welcoming and the care and attention paid to my mum was beautiful, made her birthday feel really special! The food is out of this world! The butter chicken is the best I’ve ever had, the advice to order the chilli chicken as a great accompaniment was spot on, the meat was so tender and delicious in the lamb rogan josh and the Dal was phenomenal. However, the Kantipur chicken, which I’ve never heard of before, was the absolute star of the show - tangy sweet and sour Nepalese unctiousness!

We booked a table for two at 6:00 amd ordered drinks, starters and main. The starters were delicious I had kebabs and my friend had lamb chops BUT when we were halfway through and very obviously still eating the waiter asked us if we were done, although we said no, he pushed our starters away to the other side of our table and gave us our main course. We ate the remainder of our starters awkwardly from the other side of the table, feeling like we were being pressured to eat more quickly. The mains also were delicious we both had the Makhana sauce, paratha (a bit too greasy), and rice. The serive apart from the pushiness was friendly, food great. Bit bewildered by the pushiness it's not like Wagamama where they tell you they're bringing all the food out whenever it's ready. I expected like in a normal restaurant the waiters check when you're done before bringing the next course, but the last time I was here with my husband the same thing happened...so to summarise it's great food but you'd better eat really fast, I recommend you order take out rather than eat in.

It was my first visit, and was apprehensive because I’m not really into Indian cuisine, but had heard rave reviews about the place… Fantastic!, from staff to service to food… we will be going there again!.

The waiter knocked a glass of red wine all over my dress, cream jacket and table, at the beginning of our meal. I was soaked!. The staff said sorry and replaced the glass of wine. I didn't make a scene, but had a very uncomfortable time sitting in red wine and nothing more was said by the staff until we left, when they asked if we had enjoyed our meal!!

The food was amazing as ever. Unfortunately the team spilt a drink on us however it was fine as was an accident and no harm done and they sorted. What was however disappointing was that a customer came in and told us to get off our table as apparently we had overstayed despite no time restrictions and unfortunately the team from third eye sat watching and allowed this to happen. This ultimately came down to the time management of tables in the restaurant and the fact they clearly overbooked and allowed incoming customers to harass people on a table..I raised a complaint via email and still after a week no reply..do they don’t like complaints?? I still await a reply but I’m not sure I’ll return anytime soon despite the food being great..clearly not interested in customer experience!!

A reliably good Indian restaurant since many years, authentic cooking and very attentive service. My continental family were impressed! We will be back.
