    Outstanding food and service! The chilli chicken and chilli paneer are superb. We also tried the chicken 65 which was beautifully spiced. As ever, the Rajastani lamb was melt in your mouth!

    I visited more than once during my trip to watch the test cricket. The food and service were excellent even when the restaurant was very busy. I tried a couple of new dishes. The moilee sauce is delicious and ideal with any kind of seafood. The spiced lamb chops are actually cutlets, marinated and perfectly prepared in the tandoor.

    Truly delicious, varied and interesting food. Far removed from traditional Indian restaurants. Good sized portions. and something for everyone. The service is polite but helpful with just enough information to help you choose and gauge your order size. Highly recommended!
