This was hands down THEE BEST restaurant I’ve ever eaten at. The decor, the drinks, the service, the staff and last but by no means the least the food - exceptional. It was a taste sensation. The staff are so professional and know the ingredients of every dish and give expert advice. So good I can’t put it into words. Outstanding dishes were lamb shank breyani, the fish and butter chicken - all the sides and vegetarian options were equally as good. We had a bread basket and that was also on another level of excellence.

Although I had booked for 5 people we ended up with 6 and they were able to accommodate us. While the reservation team were adamant they could not fit 6 people, the team at the tables downstairs were very helpful. Food as usual was excellent and service was impeccable.
