    Our party of 4 shared an assortment of starters and mains recommended by a very friendly server who ensured there were 4 equal portions of each item brought. We also shared cheesecake and milk cake for dessert. All of the food was outstanding. Only criticism was service was a bit slow, with what felt like long periods we did not see our server.

    Excellent of Indian food made from top class ingredients eg Welsh lamb, expertly cooked to perfection with an exquisite blend of flavours to savour. Staff very welcoming and attentive. Good advice offered on which dish to blend with which. We had lamb mutta kebab and mulligatawny soup for starters - excellent. We shared chicken biryani and patiala lamb chop as mains. Meal finished with tasty kulfi and mango. Great ambience.

    We ordered food for three people: Rajkachori, veg sheesh kebab, and tandoori seabass for starters - all excellent. Kashmiri rogan josh lamb, stuffed aubergine (maharashtran) curry and fish curry for mains, and for dessert, baked kala jamun with rabri and mango kulfi. Multi grain roti worked well with mains, as did steamed rice with the curries in the mains. With Leah Pinot Noir Severin (£77) the bill was £267 (Inc service charge). The food was delicious, with good portion sizes. We will definitely go again.
