I choose CHONDONA for my brothers birthday after trying out a few of the other Indian restaurants in the area in previous years. Having heard a mixture of reviews we went to Chondona with as high expectations about the food and service. The whole experience at Chondona proved to be wonderful!! From the booking staff who was very polite over the phone to the waiters (Ash, Harun and the other guy forgot his name??) was absolutely lovely and very warm and attentive. The food was amazing too..Chondona was extremely accommodating to my restricted diet as a vegan and I enjoyed a wonderful spinach and potato dish, with a fresh salad. The dessert..a range of sorbets was my favourite dish of the night..really beautiful and fresh flavours after a spicy meal. My brother enjoyed his non vegan dishes equally and is still talking about the amazing coconut dessert. Chondona may not have the show and pomp or even glam to it but, the food was presented in an extremely straightforward way, the staff were wonderful and there was no rush in their service through the night, just a very warm and welcoming atmosphere. read more
