The food is good but the cost is way too high relative to the quality. I have no issue paying the bill but will be unlikely to be hurrying back sadly.

Enjoyed our meal at The Fat Buddha. Service was excellent as was the recommendation for the delicious Buddaha Chicken. However have to say was disappointed with the butter chicken as was quite different to any I'd had before. Would recommend a visit, though.

Wanted to taker the family on a curry night out for my wife's birthday and was recommended The Fat Buddha by a friend and it was amazing! We were warmly greeted as we entered and shown to our table, it was 5.30pm on a Wednesday so we had our pick. The staff were all extremely helpful and very friendly and waited on us hand and foot. The food was quite simply........amazing! We all shared the starters which were a mix of popadoms, onion bhajees and samosas and they were delicious, we were in danger of eating too much and spoiling our apatites before our main courses. I can honestly say that when the mains came out that everything was perfect, the curries, rice and naans had so much flavour in them all that we all got to the point where we thought we couldn't eat another thing. Then they brought out a complimentary birthday cake for us all to share which we pretty much demolished. Amazing food, great service, a brilliant night.

Have eaten at fat bhudda on various occasions over the years, sadly this is not the same restaurant, food was ok at best, service terrible, all by the bar chatting instead of making themselves available. Will be our last visit

Booking was for 7pm and we arrived early and ordered starters which arrived ontime. We had to wait over an hour for the main course and watch while people who arrived after us get served first. We eventually got our main course after complaining to 2 waiters. Order food just after 7pm and main dish arrived after 9pm. This is the first and last time we will visit this restaurant. Staff were friendly shame about the wait.
