    Booked here for a table of 8 for my birthday meal, it was incredible from start to finish. From service to food it was amazing! One of my friends that attended had a severe peanut allergy, once I arrived I notified one of the staff members to which they instantly let the kitchen know. A separate member of staff came to the table to ask which one of us had the allergy, they were super attentive to her, giving her separate plates and sauces to the rest of the table, couldn’t ask for more! Highly recommend!

    Food was shocking. Chicken kheema mix was watery and I asked fornit to be spicy and it was bland They changed for a garlic chicken chilli dish and that wasn't any better. Starters were average.

    Really Shocked at our bill at the end. The biggest concern was ordering a side sauce for chips/sizzler. To be then charged the full price of the curry. We raised this with staff to be told they charge full price of a main for a side sauce. Therefore a Masala sauce was £11.95! Curries were not very flavoured at all!

    Fantastic experience, went to meet a friend and watch the football, whilst enjoying some lovely food and drinks. Food was up there with the best of Leicester, the service was really friendly too. Highly recommend this place- it’s a really modern restaurant/bar..
