Full of flavor (it can be quite spicy) and huge portions. You decided what you want then go take a seat at one of the tables or you can also take your food away. I normally have chicken in a large flat bread / pitta bread type thing with salad. It is lovely and feels very healthy! They also do fresh bhajis here, as well as different meat (such as lamb chops) and veggie stuff.

The service was a little slow but TOTALLY worth the wait! I had a lamb korma and rice with FRESHLY (Just baked) Naan bread and my partner had spicy goat curry. (Available in 3 levels of spiciness) IT WAS AMAZING!!! Best curry we have had in a long, long long time, if not ever. It is very reasonably priced and you are allowed to take home the food you have not eaten in a doggy bag, which is great for the midnight munchies. All in all I will be going back - Tonight in fact!

I would give it a 4.5! Food is delish and inexpensive. Definitely try the lamb biryaniread more

I highly recommend the papdi chaat and a mango lassi! All the dishes we had were tasty and not as spicy as some other south Indian restaurants so a little better for those (like me) not as good with hot spice. The dosa could have done with a little more taste though but I did really enjoy it. We had two small dishes, two curries, a dosa, two naan breads, a beer and a mango lassi and it came to just over £30. Very good, especially as there was so much food we struggled to walk home! Definitely one of the best restaurants on Green Street and worth a visit for sure.

The staff are all very friendly and helpful when ordering if you are unsure. The menu is extensive and there is lots to choose from. As well as eating in or take away they do have a lot of snacks and sweets to take away too. They also do catering for events and weddings, they made the food for my wedding and everyone was very impressed. They are used to catering for hundreds and hundreds of people so they really know what they are doing. If you are ever in the area it is somewhere you should stop in to.

Food: 5/5 Service: 3.5/5…read more I decided to visit the restaurant because it's not far from my hotel near the ExCel area and it was also on the Michelin recommended list. The food was fantastic. I ordered 2 small plates to start: the lamb samosas and the Gressingham Duck tikka, which was on their seasonal special menu. The samosas were light and the lamb filling was flavorful and spiced perfectly. You can taste the lamb and the Indian spices used in making the dish. The chutney / sauce that accompanied the dish provided a nice sweet and sour foil to the spiced lamb filling. It was divine. The Duck tikka was more heavily spiced but in a good way. The vermicelli like noodles on which the Duck rested were delicious, as well as the Duck. The savory notes worked in tandem with the little bit of garlic that was in the sauce of the vermicelli, which was awesome. The lamb main dish had such a deep flavor and it didn't disappoint as a main dish with the curry sauce. The apple samosa was the perfect ending to the meal. The apple filling was elevated by the nutmeg and the cardamom. The house made apricot toffee ice cream was creamy and smooth. It wasn't overly sweet and worked in perfect harmony with the apple samosa. The service could be improved (I waited by the host stand for about 3-5 minutes before someone saw me from the kitchen and grabbed the host. I was the only one in the restaurant at the time (18:10). I was presented with the choice between sparkling water and still water and picked sparkling, but was then told it only came in big bottles, and so I asked for regular water. However, he never came back with the water and took my water glass, in fact. Another server checked on me, which was nice. Also, the owners came out and checked on my food and talked to me for a little bit as well, which was nice. Other than the missteps in the beginning, I would say this was an overall good experience). The restaurant is lovely and is located by the water. I had a great view to the sunset as I enjoyed the dinner. If I'm back in this area, I will definitely return.
