We tried calling for 40 minutes to make a booking, but decided to chance it when we couldn't get through. We were told that we must not have called because their phone was not busy, and we would not lie about something like that. Only one staff member was good, the others were slow and disappeared between taking our drinks order. The manager was also eavesdropping on our conversation. The toilets are in need of repair and the food menu is limited. Raw in Stanmore is much better, with a superior menu and friendlier staff.

I called twice to confirm the reservation, but they failed to mention they had a large event going on in their function room upstairs. The service we received was the worst I have ever experienced at a restaurant. Our food took a long time to arrive and several dishes we ordered were not brought to us, yet still appeared on our bill. Throughout the meal, I had to repeatedly ask for water, cutlery, and napkins. When I spoke to the manager about the poor service, he had no explanation for not informing me about the event upstairs, despite my confirmation calls on the same day. The entire restaurant was in agreement that the service was subpar. If you're looking for a good Indian meal and a stress-free evening, I suggest looking elsewhere. I will not be returning and will make sure to share my negative experience with others regarding the management and mediocre food quality at this establishment.
