What people enjoy
- Curries, tandoori dishes, naan and the buffet spread are fresh and full of flavour, with butter chicken and lamb curry often singled out.
- The owners and staff are warm and attentive, refilling drinks and guiding first-timers and those with allergies through the menu.
- The buffets are good value, and à la carte portions are large enough for leftovers.
