Went there last night after a while. Ordered a starter and then found hair in it. Waiting staff just said will tell the chef. Didnt replace the dish. Went to pay the bill, didn't accommodate any discount for giving me food with hair in it. Rather than being apologetic, the manager went on it say I allowed you to stay even though you ordered starters. Its under new management so food has gone down, and service has differently worsened. Not going to return.

I dont normally leave reviews especially negative ones unless it's really bad and I want to save others wasting money and an evening. We were out for a birthday meal and had booked here but on arrival we all were thinking about going elsewhere, the place was pretty rough and ready. But we just decided to give it a go anyway, they brought out menus which were really basic with little options compared to most Indian restaurants nothing particularly appealing but thought maybe that will mean a nice home cooked style curry's.After waiting a fair while to order some drinks they brought out a plate of salad to share between 5 of us and a small dip selection, with no poppadoms we had to ask if we could get some with it and by the time they had come we had eaten the sides. Then placed our orders which took ages to come considering it was pretty quiet in there. Service was all over the place we had to stack all the starter plates up as they didn't clear before bringing the mains. All 5 meals were awful we had mixed tandoori really dry no mint yohurt, biryani mostly rice and dry, paneer curry way too hot, lamb chops which were charcoal. I had lamb curry they said off the bone, it was a few tiny pieces of dry lamb and a few bones in mostly lamb fat and oil with a weird taste bland yet hot. The keema naan was horrible like flat and burnt not like a nice fluffy naan I'm used to with a weird taste. Meal came to about £125 for 5 people I'd seriously never go back there again we left most of the food!

Had a very bad experience with the attitude of Zain who claimed to be the manager in absence of our favourite Bhaijaan.Went for dinner with my family and ordered regular mains with roti and naan and then a veg biryani a biggest mistake. Curries were good in taste but biryani was tasteless. Upon telling the same to the server Ravi, he accepted that the regular chef is not there hence this taste. I told him if this has been communicated to me earlier I would have ordered for rotis and not biryani to which he responded I can still order for roti and they will not charge for the biryani. When the billa came biryani was also added, upon asking this to Zain he said this is how it is when I told him Ravi told me that they will not charge for it, he said its Ravi's mistake and you can ask him. Obviously if I wanted I would have stand on it but I didn't want Ravi to suffer and paid for the entire bill. I also asked for the proper bill which they said they don't provide. Seems they are busy in tax theft so much that they forgot what customer services means. Anyways one restaurant strikes out from the list as we have many good names in Leamington.Definitely a strike no place for the average food and extreme arrogance.

We Dined in two weeks ago on Wednesday night. We was ignored by the waiter he took our drinks order and gave them to us .He was on the phone constantly it took 20 minutes to take our food order . I don't know where the friendly manager Mohammed was that night we are regulars and he always look aftered us every time with a smile. We was frustrated and tried to get his attention all the time to find out where the food was. The restaurant only had 5 tables and he could not cope at all and the service was very poor. We never had poor service when the manager was here before. I hope you come back Mohammed very soon as we won't come back again.We were very disappointed and upset and the food was average and Lamb was very tough and hard.We won't be coming back sort the professional staff out.Vegetarian options: Excellent veg optionsParking: Parking at rearDietary restrictions: Vegan Diahes

The place needs a makeover feels like an outdated place to dine at , it has poor hygiene and absolutely no authentic taste if we talk about desi food. There are far better places to go if you want to try authentic desi food.

Revised Review.Had previously given this place 5-stars based on an excellent (initial) take away.This weekend I placed a 2nd order via their app but received NO order confirmation. Called to query but was told the app ".. doesn't work" & I'd need to order via phone! Despite being assured I'd be refunded they DID charge my account.. even though I paid cash for the subsequently repeated phone order! I've since filed a time consuming dispute with the credit card company to get reimbursed. After all that, the takeaway wasn't a patch on last time (half the quantity of paneer) They also charge random prices (same orders, 2 different prices.)On both occasions I've collected, the restaurant looked untidy (random junk lying around) & wasn't particularly busy. Nevertheless, the manager always seems stressed & under pressure.If they get the food right, it can taste absolutely super but, if you do order ANYTHING from this place... beware!!!

Awful customer service we are regulars always come with 4 or 5 people on Wednesday it was busy. The waiter was on his phone and gave our drinks and popadums. The Food is always excellent and the service is the best when we always get greeted by the manager. I don't know where Bob manager gone that night was different faces unprofessional waiter. The waiter was on his phone and sitting down eating his food we called couple times to get drinks ordered but was ignored eventually he came. The waiter said was busy with other customers. He could not handle half full restaurant as our friendly manager bob does it no problem. Bob We want you back with your excellent customer service and the conversation we always have.

Small friendly restaurant, not a large menu, but still plenty of choice reasonably priced. Also does take away. Food good, best poppadoms ever tasted.
We ordered a takeaway for £100 plus pounds and what we got was abuse, unprofessional service, burned breads, Dal over flowing into low quality plastic bag and everything you don’t expect for a family weekend.We never got 2 x Pilau Rice and 1 x Plain rice we ordered and paid once we got home. When I called back about the missing item, the guy on the phone was unprofessional and hung up the phone. They are inexperienced enough to pack a potion of Dal in the bottom of £100 worth of food and what we got at home was some yellow sauce in the cheap plastic bag.The Lamb chops were just 3 pieces flavourless bones for £13:00 without any salad or sauces. Curries were extreme spicy with extra hot chillies which an average person cannot eat. Nan bread was over cooked and burned. This place is the worst place you can spend your money for a family dinner.After all this, I called the business to get a refund for the food they didn’t provide and the one they wasted, the person on the phone was rather rude and abusive. This place is a shame for beautiful town Leamington.Stay away from this place !!!Photos attached.

All four of us had different meals and we all thought they were excellent. The gentleman who served at our table was very friendly and chatty. When we were leaving he walked us to the door and thanked us for coming. We would definitely go there again.

Arrived at around 2300 on 24.03.22 to an extremely rude manager. We were asking about the difference between ordering food to go and ordering to eat in when the manager started using extremely vulgar language with us (including the f-word) as we were leaving all because we were asking if we could pay extra to eat in instead of having a takeaway order(A warning that eat in will cost approximately double that of a take away order)Chicken biryani was full of bones!!
