Don’t be put off by the local area The food is very nice and reasonably priced compared to other Indian restaurants around the county, and staff very pleasant. Been visiting here fortnightly for the last few years

Quite a small place but already a number eating in the restaurant when we arrived at 17-20 pm. Friendly staff . Excellent food and reasonable prices. The place filled up quickly so if popularity is anything to go by this place is worth a visit
