Reviews
"Had a reservation for quite a large number of people. One was late but they made us all wait outside and said they would charge us to sit down if we didn’t. That was a bit weird but apart from that service was really nice. The food came out quickly and was and was cooked well. Also nicely decorated and great for a birthday or other celebration"
"Overpriced average food with small portion sizes. Far better places to eat in this area. The decor was nice but felt very Mexican in my opinion. As it was Friday lunchtime it was quiet and I felt as though the staff we standing on my head throughout the duration of the meal! Disappointed"
"Nice restaurant for Indian food with a twist. Great ambience and wide variety of selections on the menu. The vegetarian options are very good. The wraps are loaded with paneer. The salads are tasty and filling. They have a nice selection of Bread as well. The overall portion size is quite good. The staff is friendly as helpful. Overall a very nice restaurant."
"We’ve dined in many times with family. It’s kid friendly and they serve the most delicious Indian food. Really recommend the prawn nilgiri. Lunchtimes have a great £11 meal deal too."
"Went here with friends visiting from outside Leicester. The ambience was great with little eclectic touches in the decor. Front of house wasn't very nice. I understand they were having a busy day but there's a fine line between being assertive and being rude. We felt he crossed the line to being rude. You are allowed only 1.5 hours for your dining experience. The girls who took the order were really nice and professional. The food was AMAZING!!! Very tasty and good to look at. Portion size was decent as well. The cocktails were really good as well and it was 2 for 1, so even better. Overall, the food made up for the rudeness of the front of house. Good value for money. I'll be happy to come back here again."
