I said I did not want to pay full price for this bad service and after it turned out they were lying I said don't bother I will order somewhere else. Very badly handled by the staff at the restaurant. Please don't order food from here.

I had avoided eating here before because of the lack of a menu displayed outside. I don't know why…read morerestaurants do this and when I asked my waiter, he couldn't come up with a good answer. Anyway, I decided to take a chance on dining here as I had tried all other places in Cheam. There seemed to be a good crowd of happy diners inside and my instincts turned out happily to be right. The service levels were spot on and the staff kept checking in to make sure everything was OK, even when the restaurant got busy later on. I enjoyed a popaddom while perusing the menu, which was served with a nice yoghurt dip and mango chutney. My onion bhajee starter arrived suspiciously quickly but hey, it tasted lovely. My main course of shatkora gosht was unusual and lovely - nice tender cubes of lamb cooked in a piquant dark sauce and finished with the juice of an Inidian fruit related to grapefruit. I only know this as I had seen this dish enjoyed by Rick Stein on his recent TV series, travelling through Bangladesh. Rick's recommendation was much appreciated in this case. I had pilau rice and a puree to go with the dish. Aided by a very generous glass of wonderfully thick mango lassi, I was too stuffed for dessert. Fantastic dining experience. Just get that menu up outside, guys!

They explained to us that a group had booked the whole restaurant. They were so kind however and rearranged the tables so that we could have dinner there.

The food was delicious and the staff were so nice! They even escorted us out at the end of our meal so we weren't squashed by the rowdy group.

While cheap at about 6 pounds, the 10 dishes in the buffet are not going to wow you, and are not expected to, I suppose. In fact, the food in the buffet line-up can even be a bit bland.

I asked the waiter the difference between the regular butter chicken and the British style and he said the regular has more of a medium spice while British style is sweeter. We like spice so we chose the regular version. It wasn't spicy overall but they top with fresh chopped green chili on top which was nice. I believe you can ask for them to make it more spicy. The family next to us was Indian possibly and they had a side of green chilis, red onions and lemon. I was kind of jealous. I thought maybe I should ask for a side of that too. But I figured I would be nicer to my stomach this time around. So we split one curry and it doesn't come with any rice or bread. We ordered 2 different breads, one garlic naan and one tandoori Roti. It was perfect amount for us to share. My husband probably could've eaten a bit more but we were going to get dessert somewhere else after. Both the breads were beautiful. We also had the vegetable samosa and they was really good. I love the dough they use. I've had different dough versions of samosas and maybe it's regional dependent, I've had ones that's more of a pie crust thickness and thin eggroll wrapper thickness. But theirs was a perfect balance. It was almost like the Chinese eggroll wrapper thickness. But the filling and chutneys were nice also. I wish I was able to try many more dishes!

Ordered some vegetable samosas to start and then for main course I had Harleem with pilau rice (which was a lamb and lentil dish) and the other half had some kind of chicken curry (don't remember the name) with butter naan. Food was very delicious and lighter compared to the normal Indian curry j choose. The lamb had been chopped/slices very thinly and so was very tender and curry had a nice flavour. Enough food left over for takeaway and that fed me warmed up the next night! Very nice for a change and would def give it another go
