Overall 8.3 - Food 9, Ambience 8, Value 7, Service 9

Taken here the first time as part of our work team's end of year celebrations. The food was amazing, the wine selection diverse and the service outstanding. The serving sizes were a tad small in the banquet when sharing among eight, but for a smaller group may have been fine. (gastroccentric - See my reviews (24) - December, 2008)

Overall 8.5 - Food 9, Ambience 8, Value 8, Service 9

Great Curry - can recommend the Vindaloo if you like spicy. Portion are on small side when sharing but very enjoyable. Would go again. Service was great. (SL - See my reviews (6) - September, 2008)

Overall 8.8 - Food 9, Ambience 8, Value 9, Service 9

Great food. Good location. Quick service - a bit too quick. Would have been nice to stay a bit longer.

Thanks for the complimentary wine. (Vik - See my reviews (3) - August, 2008)

Overall 8.3 - Food 8, Ambience 9, Value 7, Service 9

Great tasting food and friendly attentive staff. The size of the mains in the banquet were a bit on the small side for a group of 6 people but apart from that it was a very enjoyable experience. A pleasant surprise was a vegetarian substitute in the entree` for the one vegetarian in our group which the staff did without being requested to do so. Would definitely recommend you give this restaurant a try! (June, 2008)

Overall 6.8 - Food 7, Ambience 7, Value 5, Service 8

Quick friendly and efficient service. Although the food was above average standard to my taste it could have done with a little more spice and seasoning. The only disappointment was the size of some servings which were too small for one person let alone when sharing. (JR - See my reviews (4) - May, 2008)

Overall 7.8 - Food 7, Ambience 8, Value 8, Service 8

satisfactory., the waitresses were very attentive and nothing was too much trouble. (March, 2008)
