I went here with a friend and her parents on a Tuesday night.
They had a special on, which quite frankly I don't know how they make any money on, 2 courses with sides £10.
The amazing thing about this is though, the food did not suffer nor the service. It was all really darn good. Be it the butterfly prawns, the tikka chicken, somosas, for starters, all of it was of a standard I would have expected to pay a lot more for. Even when you look on the menu though, the full price of the starters and mains are reasonably priced indeed.
The poppadoms were cooked perfected and not one chewy edge in sight. When we had demolished the bowls of accompaniments, they just refilled without asking. The drinks were served and when running low, but not to hinder us having our meal in private, they came and asked if we wanted re-fills.
Now the mains, well, they were so yummy, everyone swapped a bit around, so that we could all taste what the other person had ordered and they were all so good. The rice was cooked to a awesome standard and not clumpy or stuck together in parts. The flavours were distinctive bold. The quality of the meat in the food was excellent, I didn't think I was chewing on a cats bottom at any point! I was done for about half way through as had way too many poppadoms, and a starter, but in true LM fashion, when food is this good, I just kept on ploughing through it.
I know it is the place of choice for my friend's parents and I can clearly see why. The service was brilliant, food of an exceptional quality. Although I live a good 35/40 minutes away, it will be worth sacrificing having a lager with my curry to come back here again. read more
