Everytime I go there I enjoy the food. So much selection to choose from the dessert with ice cream is to die for. Excellent food and staff are very polite and the service is very good. Love going there.

Plenty money spent on the interior, however the Sunday buffet was pretty poor. The starter that is served to the table was simple potatoe on a chapati like bread was promising,
The mains consisted of what resembled mixed veg from the supermarket, most unappealing
One lamb and one chicken described as spicy, it was not. Same again but not spicy, did not try. Rice, not very nice noodles and naan bread. Rice was OK.
Reasonably busy, 12.50 for the meal, just wish they tried a bit harder in the taste dept. Great if you can consume large volumes of food, not for me. Sorry guys.
