Had the hot mezze sharer for lunch with a friend. We also had the baklava this time which was so good! Food is always delicious with good price options. We enjoy sitting in the window. Service is very friendly and helpful. Toilets are of a high standard.Parking: We parked in a free area near the canal boat hire place. Walked 5 mins to get there.

Came Saturday for the first time, after a recommendation. The twins who served us the time we was there did a fantastic job, pleasant, laughable and did a outstanding service. Food was yummy! Even the cocktails, abit high on price but the portion size you could understand why.

We came here for a three course meal on New Year's Eve. The food was delicious, we all agreed it was the best food we'd eaten out in a restaurant in a while. We had a lovely time and we'll be back to try more!Vegetarian options: Great range of Vegetarian options so I had no problem choosing my meals.

As we were staying in the area, we had seen this place whilst driving by. Checked the reviews and booked a couple of hours before we got there.There isn't parking, but found somewhere suitable in a nearby street.Table wasn't ideal, I had a hand sanitiser unit on the wall just by my head! But the food was good, portions large and great value for money. It was very busy and loud, but that was probably because of the time of year.

Revised review. This restaurant used to be amongst the best locally. Went again tonight. The menu offers have changed. Prices increased by many times inflation. The house Lamb Koftas used to be amazing. Now have become a non descript small portion of some small dollops of some kind of meat. (Not sure what!) Always had the mixed grill previously, but opted for the mixed meat option from the menu. Was quickly told this was a typo and not available. Opted for the fajitas. Tasteless and served with a plate of jalapenos and cheap pre-grated cheese. It's a shame as the lady running front of house was chatty and cheerful. I really Hope they can bring back the quality which made the place popular in the past. In the past It's been buzzing with the owners chatting with staff, welcoming familys and just being nice. The whole atmosphere is now lacking.There used to be a showmanship and amazing smells, with the open kitchen which is now hidden by boarded up windows.

Fantastic food when done right but sometimes it’s overcooked, not much atmosphere and when you are there the staff are polite but when it comes to making bookings they have absolutely useless customer service.Rang a week ago to book a table for the family for Christmas and was told the owner would ring me back which never happened so enquired on messenger as the Facebook page said to do so and there was no reply to that either.Really disappointed as myself and the whole family thought highly of this place up to this point.Not sure where I was supposed to respond as there was no option to do so, I called last saturday it should have been done on the phone then and there.No phone call back and it’s been a week.My wife send the request on Facebook on Monday and it was definitely sent to Sowerby bridge account so that’s 5 days with no response.

First time here, booked for a party of 5 for a birthday. Everything was nice. The atmosphere was lacking by 9.00pm Saturday and there were only 7 diners. Could not get an earlier table. The food came quickly, was well presented, reasonable portion sizes.

Ordered takeaway off their website, very disappointed when it was over £4 more than the prices on the website, very disappointed when we got home, the food was cold, the over priced lamb Kebab had no Pitta bread, the pizza was just ok ?
