• "£30 Food arrived little warm & 20min late than described (1hr5min instead of 45min), distance 5min drive/15min walk."
• "Got chicken jalfrezi, chicken pakoras and roti. The jalfrezi can not be called that because it was all chicken and tomato sauce."
• "One of the worst meals we've ever attempted to eat. We ordered chicken Dansak, and nan bread. The sauce was so thick, like a plate of thick pulp."

• "We chose this restaurant for a takeaway due to reading all the good reviews. We are now left very confused as to why there are so many good reviews."
• "Ordered from here for the first time a few days ago on the basis that it was new, not far away, and only seemed to have 5 star reviews."

• "Food tasted great, staff was friendly. They let us try a papadum for free when we asked what it was."

Cons:

• "The price was not too cheap but also not too expensive."
• "The only flaw was that they charged 4 pounds for simple pilau rice which was by far not enough."
• "Food was good but very expensive for what it is. The momos aren't the best (I grew up eating momos)."

• "We ended up spending 30£ each for starter, main, naan bread and drinks."
