Last week we enjoyed the food @daughterinnlaw with friends.
The food was incredible with the highlights for me being the balls of happiness which tasted as amazing as they looked pretty, the colonel Tao’s cauliflower and the curry dishes.
The restaurant is comfortable and well decorated. There is a great selection of cocktails and a self serve beer fridge. The only problem with the drinks being the time it took to order them and have them served. Additionally the wine (not house) ordered came in a carafe to the table so you couldn’t see the bottle of what you were drinking.
Unfortunately our visit was not as wonderful as the food was due to terrible service. It was slow and not friendly. They then messed up our bill to end the night. They also don’t have a phone number you can call so the process is very messy and uncertain if you need to change your booking for any reason.
If they could lift their service to the same level as the food this restaurant would be fantastic.

Out of lockdown and this is the first place I met friends at to catchup. Great food and there were plenty of it! We had the Tasting Menu and it was really great value. Only comment is, the music was too loud to have a nice conversation without shouting.

Loved this experience and would come back! The atmosphere was great. Loved the decorations and lively vibe. Cocktails were pretty decent. We had the set menu so got to try lots of items, including the curries. Everything was full of flavour and quite unique. The cauliflower and tandoori chicken were stand outs!

Such a great restaurant. It's a remix of Indian meets fine dining. The food is just par excellence. The presentation is a visual delight to the eyes and the ambience of the place is just beautiful. I had the tasting platter which included a mix of everything and would easily fill a person. It's a wonderful place for those who love Indian food but with the essence of fine dining. A strong recommendation.

Came here for the office Christmas lunch which had a fixed menu. The food was very nice I’d have to say. There was plenty of flair, flavour and variety and more than enough food for everyone. The staff tried very hard in testing circumstances. The decor is quirky and quite attractive in an unusual way. Overall price was pretty good, I thought. I’d happily come here again anytime.

This place is the vibe!
I went with a group of friends and it was perfect, music on, good vibes, nice drinks and delish food. Also, the decor is so so great. Love the pink vibe and everywhere has something appealing to the eye.
Balls of happiness was the start of the night!! With no doubt, it’s a must!!
We enjoy ourselves and had a great time. Definitely recommend to my friends.
The only issue is that is quite hard to contact them if there’s any change of bookings.
Other than that, great great great!

Pleasantly surprised by this joint! Wasn’t sure what to expect but I really rated the food, drinks and service. We did the feed me menu which was decent and they offered extra naans and curries to ensure we were very full when we left. Would come back!

Visited this place for a team dinner, has a good ambience but feels hurried at times.
We had the set menu and well, it was pretty hard set. 1 tiny little piece of appetiser each, full meal and a dessert. We had a couple of members with specific food requirements and the restaurant did well to accommodate them.
They have a huge bar menu but a limited food menu. As far as the food goes, I missed the wow factor. I was looking forward to restaurant surprising me with their unauthentic take on the Indian cuisine but that unfortunately did not happen.
Adding a flower on top of a golgappa or a puchka does not make it unauthentic for me. Same for a cauliflower dish which tasted exactly like a gobi 65. The chicken tikka was a bit dry and cold on the inside. The papadi chaat was amazing though and so were a few dishes from the mains. Loved the dessert.
Overall, didn’t feel like we got the value for money.
