"Food is good, but for the price you don't even get rice with it you have to order separate! I think considering how much they charge for a main they could Include a rice.. Curry arrived with no rice safe to say I was fuming!"

"Not sure if this is under new management (again) but my order last night was way below par and ive been ordering from here for a long time. Chicken tikka starter was extremely mean in portion, 5 Chicken pieces the size of oxo cubes with a slice of pepper, chicken tikka byriani was not tikka and vegetable curry was watery. Bombay potato was the only thing decent on there. For £30 I think I'll start looking elsewhere.
Just on the owners response below, the chicken tikka starter was as red as red gets"

I thought I didn't like Indian food for years I'd pass on it , I was never keen on takeaway.this place has opened up my eyes. The food is delicious, i can't clear a full plate yet .the rice is aromatic the pakora is crispy and the curry/sauce that is part of the tikka . That's my favourite.
