We booked our work Christmas 'Do at Kayal. The starter and main was great, but the 3 courses (plated starter / various curries on the table / ice cream dessert took over 4 hours. There was hours of waiting around and drinks ordered never came. I did complain and service charge was removed but we missed our booked activity because of the time delays. Was a little steep at £31pp but expected at Christmas.

The staff were all friendly and efficient. Food recommendations made worked very well. We were given an extra small portion of curry that was really tasty. All meals were flavoursome with heat that built but never over powered.

Weird food and snotty atmosphere. Judgy waiter being weird as my card didn't go through insisted on me trying another then it asked for the pin number to that but I had the pin to the first card and had to look up the pin for the, second card on my phone and unfreeze my card and all the time the men in the other table sat whatching like it was some sort of entertainment. Not for us!

Our overall experience was excellent as usual. My one comment would be that we were a table of 5 sat at what was a table for four and could have done with a little more room. My only complaint is about the booking process - I booked on line 10 days or so in advance and got no co0nfirmation of booking until the morning of the booking. As I was going away until the date of the booking, I called Kayal directly and made a booking over the phone. I got an email from Quandoo on the morning of the booking confirming. Poor communications.

My sister's first visit. For me, just glad to try the crab curry again. (I note it is now described as a "messy" experience on the menu! Very much worth it though.

The food is always incredible and the service is wonderful- the staff really go above and beyond and are so lovely. I wanted to tip vis the card machine but was disappointed that this doesn’t go directly to staff, so I will bring cash next time, as it is them who deserves a tip for all their hard work.
