    My lamb tikka kebab was exceptional, service was faultless, it was early evening so not busy. Maybe a bit pricey for some but you get what you pay for and I certainly think it was worth it

    Excellent Indian restaurant with fantastic service from start to finish. The curry was absolutely delicious, full of flavour and cooked perfectly. The poppadums were fresh, crisp, and the perfect accompaniment, especially when washed down with a cold Cobra beer. One thing that really stood out was the variety of dishes on offer. Unlike some Indian restaurants where everything seems to be swimming in sauce, the dishes here were well-balanced, allowing the individual ingredients and flavours to shine through. Great food, attentive staff, and a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended and I’ll definitely be returning.

    Food was sweet and not flavorful. Very expensive for 2 platters and a naan with no drinks. We spent over $133
