I went to this restaurant on my own as I’m away on business. The food was excellent. In fact it was possibly the best Indian food I have ever had the pleasure of eating. It isn’t the cheapest food around but it is definitely worth paying the extra for. The front end staff were very pleasant and couldn’t do enough. The decor was very nice and clean and they had upbeat Indian music playing in the background. I will definitely be going here again. Many thanks
