    I was visiting Emsworth for a few days and my two good friends came to visit. We decided on having…read morea curry and went to the village. There are two Indian restaurants and we chose this one. Firstly, the decor: It is gaudy to say the least! The walls are pink and there are lights inside which change colour. Don't misunderstand, these are not subtle changes. When the restaurant turned red, I felt like we were in a massage palour. Secondly, the service: Anyway, we continued in and were shown to our seats by a sullen lady who didn't say much. After a while, she took our drinks order (I was bordering on thirst by the time she arrived) and then she brought our cutlery and crockery to the table. I would not be exaggerating if I said she literally dropped the knives and forks down and then again, dropped the plates. She didn't place them anywhere in particular. We ordered popadums which were lovely. They come with the obligatory three sauces: mint yoghurt, chutney and something super spicy. Yum! Around 30 minutes later, I had to ask a waiter if we could place an order for our main course. The same waitress shuffled over and mumbled at us. We placed our order, not really having great expectations. Thirdly, the food: I ordered a Lamb Tikka - this is dry as the Masala part is the sauce. I was extremely pleasently surprised. The meat was cooked to perfection, no lie. We had sag aloo as well, along with pilau rice, a naan bread and onion baaji. The food was not greasy at all, it was wonderful. I haven't had such a good curry for a very long while. Finally, another waiter came to our table to clear away and gave us his life story how his girlfriend (to whom he referred as 'he') had dumped him and he was heartbroken. He was pretty much in tears as he told us. He went away and came back to continue the saga as one of my friends played with her phone and the other one yawned dramatically. I was stuck listening to him!! He didn't get an extra tip for pouring his heart out, I can tell you. Anyway, the service is distinctly lacking, but perhaps I just went on a bad night. I've heard others who've said they had a great time all round. This is why I gave it 3 stars. I would have given it more, however. I would recommend this place and hope you get a better service than I did!!

    Nice looking indian although inside they have color changing lights that are a bit wierd!…read more The food is excellent though, this is the best curry I've had in a long time! Most dishes are quite spicy so be sure to ask for a milder version if you don't like lots of heat
