    Enjoyable light meal. Three of us shared 3 dishes. The aloo tikka was excellent with delicious flavours and textures, the gnocchi dish was a bit disappointing with little flavour at all the third dish was good but not memorable. The wait staff was very attentive and pleasant. I’ll go back just for the aloo tikka

    Limited menu, but the food we ordered was tasty and well-presented. The wait staff were very friendly and courteous, but the service overall was slow.
