After coming here for the first time around a month ago, I wasn't too convinced by this place and it's rather shabby decor. However, I came back a second time because my Dad had wanted to come back as he enjoyed the first time we went.
When we arrived the staff were very friendly and welcomed us, showing us to a table. They swiftly took our drinks orders and asked if we wanted some poppadoms. Both drinks and poppadoms arrived quickly.
We waited quite a while before the waiter came back to take our food orders, this was only after I managed to catch their attention to let them know we wanted to order.
The food arrived within a decent amount of time and I couldn't really complain about mine - it was fine. My Dad did comment that his lamb vindaloo dish was far too salty and could not eat too much of it because of this.
When my Dad and I ordered dessert, we asked for the mint ice cream (my Dad wanted this to freshen his palate after such a salty meal) and an orange sorbet. Much to our disappointment we were told neither dessert was in stock.
Everything finished, we wanted to get the bill. I had requested the bill when the waiter was clearing away the dessert dishes. We waited for about 10 minutes before catching the waiter's attention and reminding him we were waiting for the bill. Another 10 minutes passed.. I asked for the bill three times before it finally came half an hour later.
Overall, both experiences here have been pretty disappointing and I would not return. Staff are initially tentative but the soon wears off, the food isn't anything to write home about and the place needs a good lick of paint! Walls are yellow and stained, lights flicker, seats all worn and generally could do with some TLC. read more
