    Fast, efficient yet friendly service. Food excellent - had a perfect prawn pad thai. Only slight gripe was how quick we were turfed out but to be fair it was a busy lunch time so most people are on a tight schedule at lunch. Plus some of our party were late which delayed our ordering. We didn't hold it against them - lovely team. I'll be back for sure!

    To start, the servers were really attentive, kind and responsive with body language. Upon arrival I was seated straight away and given good service. Ambience is lacking slightly for the prices you pay however the food is absolutely outstanding. Best Japanese I’ve had in a while.

    From start to finish we had a fabulous experience. The food and service was amazing. We ordered a variety of dishes, which were really decent portion sizes. I love biryani, and both the lamb and prawn biryanis were delicious, the right hint of spice and cooked to perfection. The lamb biryani had decent pieces of lamb not the small bite sized pieces you typically can get. The lamb ghosht was the star - tender piers of lamb cooked in a rich sauce. Overall the variety of dishes is good, the menu is simple but caters broadly and each dish made with genuine care. From start to finish Tanmoy made us feel welcome and provided exceptional service.
