Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Fantastic meal, we had the specials(fish bondha and a Daal Gosht) as well as a prawn curry and lamb stew, all delicious. Koinonia have consistently cooked excellent, tender lamb every time we've visited. It's also worth acknowledging the joy of the opportunity to eat Indian...cuisine that isn't just Tikka masala and pilau rice. We were here for our anniversary and we picked well, will return.More

We are staying in Newark the night on our way north for a family event & popped in here for a meal. The staff were very welcoming & attentive, more over, the food was delicious. My husband had the special which he thoroughly enjoyed &...I had rice & the lamb chop starter as my main, lovely!! In fact it is so lovely that we will probably stop off for lunch Sunday on the way back, it's that good.More
