   I’d leave zero stars if I could. We went in a group of 4 for dinner last weekend after reading the reviews here on Google: 4.2/5.0 wouldn’t be that bad so we thought! While the starter and the overall diner ambience was outstanding, it set a higher expectation of the mains, the food, however, was far from mediocre and weren’t even close to authentic. They were bland, awfully presented and I personally felt like they were ridiculously whitewashed. My palate is screwed from their frozen, cold kebab and it is still painful as I’m writing this review. I applaud and appreciate the owner’s effort to attend for feedback however the waiter (there was only one throughout the evening and his service was horrendous!) could have been more careful with his overall food handling etiquette. From the past years’ reviews I’ve read, I presume this restaurant used to be better. Not sure if they switched owner or recently restaffed but this should be seriously looked into. My advice is if you have £30 to spend for a family dinner in Weston-super-mare, spend it ELSEWHERE.

   Extremely disappointed: Will never recommend it to anyone. Travelled from Bristol to town, to celebrate and then dine for a special occasion but ended up feeling very embarrassed to have chosen this place. Ambience was fine, which is where you get fooled. Had papadums and condiments for starters which were actually nice, but really the only tasteful food we had that night. Wait time was very long (likely short staffed). Could really do with staff training. Service of food was pathetic! No concept of plating. Food was reeled in on sizzler from kitchen but then dumped on the plates and handed over?! Im surprised this hasnt been highlighted by many. We ordered Lamb Tikka Balti, Mixed Tandoori Platter, Tawa Lamb, King Prawn Sizzler, Pilau Rice and Cheese Naan. The meats were tender, except for anything on the platter (the seekh kabab was super dry, chewy and plasticky). Portion sizes and pricing is alright. But my God, it was the most bland food Ive probably ever eaten. Cant say even a single dish out of all had a flavour or was palatable. We completely lost our appetite which was such a shame! Now Im an asian myself so I know my food and flavours. Also, cheese-where??naan? They are supposed to be stuffed; but all they give is plain naan brushed with some butter-looking thing being served interchangeably. Idk what sort of Indian pilau was that either: more like bland, butter zeera rice. Also to note, they give you hand written receipts (the order they penned down) and take service charges (unexplained percentage). Couldnt say much on spot as we were with guests to celebrate (we shouldve though). Anyways, Gordon Ramsey could pay them a visit really.

   The place to go with a group of mates that can get a bit bawdy. Order taken with efficiency and attempt at upselling rather than helpful suggestions and welcoming. Could do with more staff probably and more staff training. Food was good.

   Nice atmosphere, attentive staff and food was lovely. Initially a mix up with my main meal, as vegetarian was brought but this was replaced with the mixed meat version very quickly and without hassle. But for the hiccup, would have rated 5 star.

   Came across this lovely little curry house on our one night stay in Weston-super-Mare. Lovely staff, place was nice and clean and food was beautiful. I don't have a huge appetite so went for the one plate special which includes a main, side, rice and naan. It was perfect! Chicken Tikka was amazing. Would recommend a visit!

   Lovely range of food friendly and very funny staff that made this a lovely evening. Our taxi driver recommended here as one of the best in Weston. They seem to be doing a roaring trade in Takeaways. Restaurant and Takeaways for delivery and collection. Accessibility - reasonable staff usually around to open the doors. Disabled loo downstairs and toilets upstairs. Veggie v Carnivore - I'm a veggie and had a good choice. My cousin the carnivore loved her chicken. We are both a wuss (coward) for really spicy food, everything clearly chilli marked for pungency! I did not spot anything marked Vegan, but I'm sure if you asked they'd point out the Vegan options. A note on the menu to inform them re allergens. Toilets - disabled downstairs and main upstairs. I was not able to look into the disabled to check it out as it was locked.
