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.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Had such high expectations for the place due to the awards they had won, but were so disappointed! Table wasn’t ready on arrival, very slow service, we were booked in for 8.30, had some poppadoms around 9pm and the food was served just gone 10pm!...Poppadoms and chutneys were nice, a couple of the main dishes were ok and the breads were good. One dish had coconut in it but this was not mentioned on the menu. My husband has a bad reaction when eating coconut so this did ruin the night! The waiter was incredibly rude to us when we complained. Granted, they did bring another dish but it was gone 10.30pm by this point so it wasn’t eaten. The couple of ladies we dealt with were lovely, particularly Sophie, who brought the bill and did take 50% off and apologise. Had so much better food and service at other places a third of the price. Maybe the awards have gone to some staff members heads, but when you’re at the top (as I believe from awards received they are) there is only one way to go. So you cannot afford to let standards slip which unfortunately we fell foul to!More

A really nice atmosphere in the restaurant. Very friendly service. Fantastic food. It was busy on a Thursday evening so I’d recommend booking. We were a group of 4, had popadoms, pickle tray, mixed starter, murgh chettinaad, lamb chettinaad, garlic naan and vegetable paratha. Lots...of food. The chettinaad in particular was the best Indian dish I have had for some time. Everything was lovely and I would definitely visit again (despite the 40 min drive to get there, so it must be good). Thank you!More
