Food has always been fantastic, sadly the service on my last visit was very slow and the restaurant was only half full. I will visit again

The food and service were excellent as always but our experience was dusrupted by an overly loud group at a table close by. Would have been good if the staff had intervebed rather than leaving it to other diners to ask then to quieten down.

This is my second visit here and I’ll definitely be going back again. Whilst their traditional dishes are very good the variety and originality is excellent. Water Buffalo, Goat, Venison, Dark Chocolate to name a few. Service is excellent too. Highly recommend.

This is a great place with delicious food and friendly, helpful staff, who were happy to make a dish a bit more "saucy" for my brother who loves a load of sauce on his rice. Their buffalo or lamb bhoona is amazing.

We went yesterday evening and had the buffalo and the goat curries. Both were extremely tasty and we would definitely have them again - although very tempted by the curry made with dark chocolate for next time.

Staff were charming and food delicious with generous portions - will definitely be back! Only negative is it was very hot in the restaurant and the air conditioning was only switched on shortly before we left, would have been more comfortable if it had been on earlier.

A fabulous experience all round. Top class food ,probably the best Goan prawn curry I've had. An unusual and tantalising menu which made choosing difficult. I need to go back at least 4 more times to have my other choices!!

After our starters we were asked to move table as they needed our table for a large group. We were moved to the back of the restaurant right next to the kitchen with no real apology. Looking into the kitchen you could see lots of large tubs of Pataks ready made curry pastes, which presumably were used to make the dishes. Maybe this explains why the dishes we had were probably the blandest ones we have ever had in an Indian Restaurant.

Visited on a quiet Thursday night so the restaurant was quite empty. Pleasant staff and prompt service. A good number of special dishes as well as the usual Indian/Bangladeshi standards.
