    Would not recommend if you have kids in strollers. No lift in the premises, you have to carry the stroller into the basement, where the restaurant is. No change table for babies. We had made the booking over the phone & I had specifically requested room for a stroller, I wasn’t told it was not a KID friendly restaurant.

    The food was decent and the ambience was nice. Service was however under par, there was no one at the front when we were looking to order and basically waited 5 minutes but other than that the food came out quick after ordering and taste was good too.

    in future please make sure that the toilets are looked after at various times. We had a problem when we were there on the 10th. Those who went to the Ladies toilet found it very very dirty.

    The food was flavoursome and plentiful. The lamb madras melted in your mouth and the onion bhaji is a large portion. You do have to go down a flight of stairs to get to the restaurant. Thoroughly enjoyed and recommended. Will definitely return.
