Loved it. Cheap and well not cheerful, but great food. The reviews are right. The curry however is served Luke warm and not piping hot with lovely steaming rice which is rather cold and flaccid

The food is excellent and the staff very friendly. I tried the super spicy chilli sauce to go with the poppadoms. Wonderful! Will definitely be back and maybe try hotter curry next time!!

Hidden away in the northern quarter. Limited menu each day. Basic curries on offer at low cost. Serves a purpose.

I have been to this restaurant on so many occasions with my friends during lunch time at work. Great atmosphere. Always very busy at lunch time, everyone that attends to eat in this place is prepared to make room and sit with complete strangers. It is fabulous! Decor is basic but the food makes up for it. Basic indian food... More

This little backstreet Indian cafe is fantastic. It cost less than 10 pounds for 2 of us to eat rice and 3 curry with a roti. The food was as good as anything I've eaten in more expensive curry houses. I would definitely eat here again and would recommend to anyone seeking a cheap and cheerful yet authentic taste of...

I've been here many times over the years, and visited again this week after quite a while, delighted to find that it is just the same as ever and the delicious food just as reliable as ever. It looks pretty unprepossessing from the outside, and inside it's just like a little 'greasy spoon', with formica tables, but the food is... More
