Before I start, I should mention that I've only used this place for a takeaway meal on one occasion, so please don't consider me a regular expert by any means.I didn't enjoy my visit here. The complaints are largely with the food. I walked in for a carry out, and ordered a mixed pakora, a lamb boonah with a chapati, and a small portion of chips.The short journey home took only a few minutes, but already, I found, the pakora was steamed, soggy and limp. Not freshly made, apparently. This was really dissapointing, as the starter usually always sets the tone for the rest of the meal - and yes, unfortunately, it did. The boonah was very thin, more like a soup than a curry, and tasted of packaged curry powder instead of freshly crushed spices, etc. The lamb was also quite fatty, which is a huge no-no in Indian cuisine. To top this off, the chapati was rock solid and very thick - you could have put icing on it and served it at your wedding! - and the chips were, like the pakora, steamed and limp.So by all means, give this place a go, but if you think there's somewhere better, you're perhaps safer avoiding.
