Food Quality

Pros:

  • "Definitely one of the best Indians I've ever had."
  • "The dishes excellent (the lamb was really tender in its spinach sauce)."
  • "The food is always amazing, good portions and great flavour."
  • "The food was amazing, the curries tasted amazing and the meat was cooked more than perfect."
  • "Everything is cooked to order, fresh and succulent meat cooked to perfection!"
  • "Very tasty Indian food. No doubt every dish was very authentic."
  • "The biriyani sauce was so rich and flavorful, perfect to dip with some garlic naan."

Cons:

  • "Not only was it one of the worst meals we've ever had, it was one of the most expensive."
  • "Food was bad- not horrible just bad. Bhaji was soft, 2 out of 3 curries tasted watery."
  • "The food wasn't that great and there were flies in the restaurant!"
  • "The last 'special occasion' was ruined by badly prepared food, in stupidly small quantities."
  • "Food is nothing like authentic food they advertise, dosa sambar is more of dal than sambar, dosa aloo masala wasn't fresh and had a smell."
  • "The Chicken Jalfrezi (slimy peppers were Old) + Daahl, plus a chick pea dish... All tasted the same!?"
  • "AVOID Disappointing food. If you are a visitor in Bristol and if this is only open place to serve food than its ok else NOT a good place for dine-in."

  • "Trust me, don't go here. The service wasn't the best."
  • "The couple behind us complained to the waiter that the portions were small."
  • "Absolutely rubbish delivery service."
  • "Given a second chance after a complete no show, the poor service continued. Over 2 hours for delivery (1 hour later than advised) is not acceptable."
  • "Service can go wrong terribly when the restaurant is busy."
  • "Customer service was abhorrent- took 2 hours to deliver even though I opted for collection."

Value

Pros:

  • "Good value for how delicious it is would really recommend."

  • "Quite cheap as well."

Cons:

  • "Food good and authentic but price wise not great and overpriced."
  • "They will charge you a service fee and VAT on top of the menu prices for oily food that I would prefer to forget."
  • "The king prawns for £12 had 4 tiny prawns!"
  • "I thought the place was expensive. £6 a pint and don't normally pay for pickle tray back home."
  • "This is probably the most expensive Indian restaurant in Bristol."
  • "The food was slightly less than mediocre, and the prices, disproportionately high for the poor quality."
  • "However rice was stale, peshwari nan was quite small, lamb chops were three pieces of pretty average lamb that were at least 50% bone, not what you expect for £13."

Ambience

Pros:

  • "An amazing find in a less-salubrious part of Bristol. Really nice cuisine and great service."
  • "Atmosphere was good too!"
  • "The atmosphere was relaxing and suitable."
  • "Just a really nice atmosphere for either a meal after I finish work or out for a treat at the weekend."

  • "It's cozy and welcoming, and there's a lovely ambience that makes it a great place for a relaxed meal."
  • "The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and you can easily park at Asda."

Cons:

  • "Just to think we nearly didn't go in because of the decor - just shows, don't judge a book by its cover!!!"
  • "Don't be out off by the appearance of outside, a friend recommend it and its a hidden gem."
  • "It's ok, not complaining, it's maybe we turned up nearly closing time on Saturday. When we turned up there were no one just staff."
  • "The place badly needs a makeover!"
  • "Poor customer service, which we got charged for."
  • "The service was terrible, it took 10 minutes to open and pour a can of cider which they then charged you £5.50 for."
  • "Not sure if this has changed owners or chef??"
