Food was good, not many curries but that's not a massive issue, the waitress was really good looking and nice though 👌😂

Hopeless food, all frozen food reheated and served with bad manners. Over priced for what you get.

We reserved a table ( why im unsure as we were the only people there all night) no one had the booking on arrival. We were told sit where we would like and we asked for a corner table out of the way. Two minutes after sitting we were ushered away from the table as it was for breakfast service only. She was rude and could hardly speak English. We moved and after having to gather the attention of the laziest waitresses ever as they did not want to miss the episode of the chase on the tv. The food took forever to arrive and to be fair it was lovely but I am sure they ordered it in as none of us smelt food being cooked. We will never go again. So take heed do not waste your money as far better service and attention would be found in frankie and bennies.

We had booked a table and when we arrived no one greeted us, there was only one other couple in the restaurant and it looked deserted. It took 10 minuites for us to have someone come and take a drinks order and then a further 5 minuites for our menues to arrive, after the order had been taken the poppadoms arrived and we waited for our main course. The onjion bhajis were cooked to within an inch of their life and when my friend cut into it, it pinged across the table, the food in general was awful and after sampling it all 3 of us decided it was inedible and couldn't eat anymore. We asked for the manager and explained how bad the food was, we said we were prepared to pay for the popadoms and one other side dish which was edible. The lady who could barley speak English told us we had to pay half which was far more than we touched claiming we ate it all even though all the food was there and bowls were full! We said no and she said to ring the police, which we did. She then proceeded to steal my friends possession including car keys and her purse, as she tried to leave with the possession I tried to stop her by blocking her path, at this point a large man came out and began threatening me spitting in my face swearing and having a violent disposition . I felt like I was going to be physically abused as well as verbally! As soon as we mentioned the police were on their way, the lady began to get nervous and kept asking me to sit down but as I feared she would steal the cash within the purse I stayed stood in case I needed to stop her taking the money again, at this point my friend with anxiety began to break down on the phone to the police who explained they were in trouble for intimidation and theft, they threw the keys and purse on the table and told us to leave. I had to physically carry my friend out as she couldn't walk. My other friends dad traveled over and went to speak to them, the witnesses came over and supported our point of view of the situation and they said it did get threatening and they also said the food wasn't great. Overall an awful experience and if I could it would be 0 stars!

Great service (Thanks Julio) and the care taken with the food was a surprise. If you like hoir flavours.. you will love the food. Compliments to "Yogi the chef. Happy with the price too as a "meal deal" was available on request.
