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

It was the blandest tasting curry iv ever had and im sure he charged me wrong because he charged me £5.50 for 3 meat curries. The place is a flea pit. Was really disappointed as i wished... More

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.
