    Great food , nice location. We were the only table and the waiter was a bit awkward (spoke so quietly we could not hear him) and unsure of our requests, but another person came to help. Good price for the quality of food.

    The food was some of the best Indian food we have ever tasted. We were a party of six and the atmosphere was easy and comfortable. The only glitch was that one order was forgotten - this was sorted our reasonably quickly. There is a full price range of menu options, from standard curries at standard prices to some more gourmet food, priced accordingly. A great night out

    The food was quite outstanding - a mixed starter for two was mouthwateringly tender and my lamb biriani one of the best I've ever tasted. There was clearly a great attention to detail and presentation which we greatly appreciated. The aubergine side dish was quite the best I have ever tasted. However, the meal was spoiled by a £40 NZ SB which was decidedly tasteless and I wish I had refused to accept it. I've had a tastier NZ for £6 from Lidl! Together with a 12.5% service charge it was an expensive experience, but not bad enough to stop us coming again when we visit Bath again in the future.

    The food was very good but the front of house service poor ;when we arrived( having booked 2-3 weeks in advance), we were not welcomed but abruptly informed that we had to be finished before 7.30 ( 6 pm booking). There was no greeting or welcome and we were shown to our table in a tight space against the wall, no attempt was made to make the space suitable for us / ensure we could fit and sit. This was very disappointing , we have been before and the service was much better. The food was very good and waiting staff were efficient and polite. Staff need to be reminded that the greeting of diners is very important. We ended up feeling like “rushed commodities”.
