Last night was the fifth time I had eaten here. Generally I have always found this restaurant to have excellent quality food, with very reasonable prices. The setting is slightly unusual, in that it is upstairs and through a bar/club, and there are often so few customers it seems like it's closed, but up until last night I have always been pleasantly surprised with the experience.
Anyway, the food is still very good, but the service on this occasion was disappointing. The waiter chose not to write down the order, then was adamant that the mistakes he had made were our fault. I ordered a medium-hot Malai Kofta but was brought a variant of daal. When I questioned this, the waiter informed me that I was mistaken and that perhaps I ordered Malai Kofta in my head but, regardless I ordered daal and suggested that I should buy another curry if I want Malai Kofta as well. In the end, he did apologise and replaced it with my original order - though again, I had ordered medium-hot, but was served an extremely mild curry (the two people I was with both ordered mild, and my "medium-hot" curry was milder than theirs). The waiter also told me I could "start smiling again" on delivery of the Malai Kofta, which I assume was a genuine attempt to make me feel less uncomfortable, but unfortunately it came across as rather sarcastic and left a somewhat sour feeling. We had also ordered poppadoms, but these never arrived - the waiter did mention them as he brought the mains, but they never materialised and we didn't feel comfortable asking him.
So, although I still think the food is excellent, I won't be back until I hear the service has improved.

We were given gift voucher to visit this restaurant by friend but the entree food of Tandoori chicken and Onion Bhajia we received were tasteless. Firstoafall it took over 30 minutes to Entrees to arrive and when they arrived onion bhajis were soft and oil soaked long shreds of onion batterfried.Tandoori chicken was not seemed marinated and looked like cooked in Microwave. After complaining to waiter he said he wont charge to us.he arrived two minutes later and picked both entree plates and said he would replace. In the mean time chef came out to suggest us that we were there for free meal as we have finished four pieces out of eight. i told him we will pay for full and we were four so we had to taste four and told him not to make new one as it is too late and just serve our mains. But i think he looked like he was in the the mood of proving point that you can not finish four pieces and return it back for refund. But he didnt understand it was waiters idea to refund and not ours. We paid the bill full in the end.It was very insulting.
Mains came out with wrong dish of cheese naan which we never order [instead of paneer chilly. ] On a bill it was charged too which i had to tell them to take it off.
Considering there was only one table of 10 apart from four of us it was Bad food and service. I would never recommennd it to anyone as it ruined our marriage anniversry.
Try it some other time but not on special occasion as i think with my experience chances of you stuffing your day on a meal are higher.
Prices are competitive to other restaurant but considering quality of enteree and mains food quality served last night i think they are overpriced.
