It was a simillar situation with my friend’s Nimbu Pani, which, once the replacement was sorted out, just needed a little sweetness added.

The Mixed Kebab Platter was okay. With a few tweaks, the Lamb Chops and Gilafi Seekh Kebabs, which were otherwise dry in texture, would’ve been alot more satisfying to eat. Nevertheless the flavours and spices were there.

The Chicken Tikka, however, tasted lovely and wasn’t dry at all. The Butter Chicken – my absoloute favorite dish – for sure tasted delicious. It was creamy and on point, with the sweetness and the texture being perfect.

Butter Chicken, Prawn Curry, Samosa Chaat

The superbly flavoured Prawn Curry tasted great too, offering a delayed kick of the heat, with spices which were tolerable.

Lastly, the Samosa Chaat; it tasted fabulous, with the different flavours, roaming around on my palate, ranging from the sweet to the tangy.

Our dinner ended on a high note with a friendly owner and staff. Please note that they only accept cash and card.
