  • "The food was quite nice although no better than most other Indian restaurants, but it was considerably more expensive."
  • "But I was truly disappointed with a food. I ask to recommend something not to hot. I had tikka masala and I have to say it didn't taste anything like tikka."
  • "The main veg curry was served in a very weirdly unique way anyways we thought the taste might be good. But again, we were proved wrong the gravy was not even cooked properly."
