    My husband and I came for our first dinner while in London on our honeymoon and it was just perfect. The service is exceptional from the moment you arrive until you finish your last bite. The stars of the menu were the Tiger Prawns and the Pistachio Ice Cream!

    Very good value. The portion sizes were very generous (in fact we requested containers at the end of the meal to take home the leftovers). Food very nice flavours. We left feeling well fed and cared for. Highlight was two of the waiters singing Happy Birthday to my friend and presenting her with a complimentary kulfi ice cream with candle, and a birthday card from the restaurant with a kind message inside - this really was a very nice touch.
