The food was nice and the service was efficient but overall the restaurant is looking tired. The toilets have cracked tiles and the lock on the cubicle was broken. To top the evening off the staff were mopping the floors around us with strong bleachy water. Great that they keep the place clean but the greatest of smells to see out our night.

We came in Christmas Eve ahead of a service at the nearby cathedral and had a great meal. The portions are generous and the food well cooked. The portion of rice was perhaps a little on the small side, but the naan bread was very generous by contrast. Due to the unusual time of day, the restaurant was very quiet when we arrived, but the atmosphere had picked up by the time we left.

Booked via Quandoo not the restaurant website so didn't see that BYOB was not allowed in December, otherwise wouldn't have gone. The restaurant was very quiet - possibly due to no BYOB on. Would rethink that policy.
