The menu is diverse and offers many delicious Indian dishes cooked in several different styles. They even have a small selection of 'English dishes' in case you dine with someone who's not a fan of Indian cuisine...but who really isn't?! The people are very warm and friendly and their helpful with the menu items. The restaurant interior is clean and very elegant, making it an enjoyable dining experience.

They had ignored my email and the time it was ordered, asked for a refund and was told it would be sorted within a few days, still no refund. Out of pocket from a wasted drive to collect it to find them closed and charged for food I never had. Will never go back.

The manager needs to learn the following important lessons in customer service…read more 1. If your customer has a complaint, say that they've been ignored for an extensive period of time, even though the restaurant is emptying - don't try and simply argue that "they are wrong." Why? It just makes them more annoyed and validates their complaint. 2. Try and change the customers perceptions tactfully. In the case above meeting the complaint with tact and an apology rather than anger would definitely have made the whole thing better. Perhaps even a heartfelt, "I apologize we have been busy... or we are understaffed..." or whatever is the root cause of the complaint would have been better than aggressively pushing back. 3. Try and make it better. This is optional, a customer certainly shouldn't ask for something, but a small gesture certainly would have made any ill feeling go away. Try it, it may work. So it's a pigs fly day when I complain about a restaurant, the food is good and I go to the Indus when I am back in Cheltenham frequently. I will rethink that in future. My complaint wasn't unreasonable, malicious or nasty. To get pushback and told "I'm wrong" isn't a reasonable response from a service provider. I was left feeling I was a "bad customer" for having the temerity to spend 130 GBP in there (and much more in the past) and expect a basic level of service, or a polite response to a complaint. Try and do better please, for the sake of your future customers.

We're staying in an Airbnb down the road from the restaurant and have eaten there three times in 2 weeks. The food was very consistent and the choices of items extensive.

I think the place tends to be overlooked because it's not near the centre of the town, but it's well worth the extra distance. The food is presented rather carefully and creates a range of flavours rarely found elsewhere. More extravagant dishes include local rabbit and some less common fish dishes, but the standard madras, tikka masala and jalfrezi, and others, are all on offer. There is also a large dessert menu, itself uncommon at curry houses, most of which are traditional Indian or Pakistani sweets, rather than attempts to satisfy the western taste. The atmosphere is quite relaxed with modern furniture and decorations that hint at the east but never impose. The fine touches make the difference here, such as unusual bottles of water that resemble large test tubes, outstandingly smart waiting staff, and the use of gloves when laying tables to prevent marks on the cutlery. One would be forgiven for thinking that the restaurant is pretentious, but the staff are welcoming and friendly. The prices are on the high side for a curry house, but this is truly fine curry, and the price of the food is a fair reflection of the skill and care that has gone into producing it. The only small complaint here is that the hand dryers in the toilets are extremely loud and do intrude on your dinner if sitting near to the toilets, but this is not enough to be a serious distraction to an excellent dining experience.

All the people we were dining with agreed the food wasn't as good as it could be, due to pools of oil at the top of each curry and slow service. A lot of people left their plates unfinished with no intention to pack it for leftovers. I thought the flavors were pretty simple and unexciting.

Although the price was high, you get what you pay for; top notch service and delicious contemporary Indian cuisine. Perfect venue for an important date or special occasion. I was visiting good friends in Cheltenham and they took me here on my first night to celebrate. We did the tasting menu with a bottle of wine. It was course-after-course of exquisite contemporary Indian dishes. The portions are enough to satisfy and the final course was a grilled type of salmon that melted into my mouth. I explained to the host upon arrival that I didn't eat red meat, pork or chicken and they customized my tasting menu to fit my specific request - pescatarian. Overall great service, elegant atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff and superb cuisine.
