Despite the slightly dated interior, I still give this restaurant five stars thanks to the owners. They are charming individuals who provide fantastic service, guiding you through the menu with humor and grace, making the entire dining experience unforgettable. Whenever I am in Southampton, I will make sure to dine here again.

I ordered the Lamb rogen josh and the lamb was cooked to perfection, very tender. The rice and naan were also delicious. Overall, it was a fantastic meal. I will definitely come back if I'm in Southampton again.

However, during my recent visit, I found the older gentleman who typically takes the orders to be rather abrupt and grumpy. This, combined with the mediocre food, prompted me to feel the need to leave a comment, especially since there are other Indian restaurants in the area. My chicken Balti was overly sour.

Lovely food, great service and very reasonably priced cheaper than most I’ve been too. Would definitely recommend!

We have ordered from other local takeaway restaurants in the past but have had to move on after disappointing experiences. We recognise how difficult it is to provide a consistent level of quality, but this team seem to get it right every time and are lovely and courteous to us both at order and on delivery. Love it.
