Service
Pros:
"We received a warm welcome, by the proprietor himself."
"Service was slow. But what's the rush?"
"Very friendly staff."
"The manager checked on our table more than once and helped explain several dishes that we weren't familiar with."
"The young man serving me was so kind to try their best to be quick even though they were busy."
"To top it off the service was excellent. Our Waitress regularly checked in on our table, kept water glasses full, and promptly brought anything we needed."
"Staff is friendly and polite. They show that they care for you."
Cons:
"We waited nearly an hour for our food whilst we saw bag after bag of takeout food being picked up by contract delivery drivers."
"While their food is good - the service is extremely poor."
"Service was slow, was served after people who had come in after we'd ordered."
"The chef's were more busy doing deliveroo and just eat orders rather than care about the people sitting in the restaurant."
"Very very slow. We tried take out, delivery. All the time they move like a snail."
"Service was late. I asked for water it's almost 30 mins for water still not got and water glasses he is washing with hand."
"Terrible service! The whole restaurant is full but there are only two servers and it takes forever to even serve water!"
Food Quality
Pros:
"Undoubtedly, the best Indian food available at Bournemouth the city centre."
"The Sri Lankan lamb curry was packed full of flavour."
"This is one of the best dosa I ever had in UK, their Mysore masala dosa is amazing and it brings so authentic taste of South India."
"Amazing south indian food - idly, dosa, wada, sambhar, chutney etc..infact other dishes, like gobi manchurian, were delicious too."
"Very authentic Sri Lankan dishes! Not since our honeymoon in Sri Lanka have my wife and I had such a delicious meal."
"Food is delicious and so are the drinks."
"Everything from the massala dips to the Biriyani have a combination of contrasting flavors and rich texture."
Cons:
"If you want a decent south indian meal then avoid this place."
"Quality of the food is questionable, very few ingredients and lots of spicy sauce."
"Flavours were also mediocre and basic."
"Even the chutney's lacked flavour to help complete the meal."
"Very Very expensive. £10 currys you get only 2 pieces of panner."
"Worst food ever. Half of the menu items are not available."
"The food was bland and the staff seemed uninterested in service."
Customer Service
Pros:
"The servers behaviour is not at all good. We are not here for free, we are paying, at least give some respect to the customers."
"The only reason to rate 4 not 5 is because of the wait time, which needs to be improved."
"The mysore masala dosa was not worth it as it tasted much the same as the masala dosa."
"I think they should change the staff in front, there was one lady.."
"Been coming here for around 10 years, since it first opened and it never disappoints."
"The staff weren't trained properly."
"Rude and unprofessional staff( especially the receptionist)."
Cons:
"Pretty rude staff and service."
"The weekend buffet is gone downhill, more expensive and of poorer quality."
"Noodles: 1/5 (recommend removing this from menu. It's not their speciality and tasted very bad.)"
"The young man serving me was so kind to try their best to be quick even tho they were busy."
"Lovely selection of South Indian cuisines.and my family loved the chicken fried rice and noodles."
