We had a lovely meal and they were very accomodating of our 1yr old. It was very busy so best to book. Wide variety of choice on the menu and all of us enjoyed out meals. Service was good although a little inpersonal. However would visit again.

I took a takeaway and had to throw half the food in the thrash, the gravies were terrible, in fact they were sweet , the curd with biryani was sweet, the dal was insipid and the nans and roti were unchewable. Wonder how this place... More

We have eaten in many Indian restaurants in the UK, and we have eaten here many times, great food. As another well travelled friend of mine said when he visited from Cheltenham, this is the best Jalfrazi I have ever had.

Me & my husband visited this restaurant on a Tuesday night & it was very busy but that didn't affect the great customer service that we received. We ordered chicken tikka masala which was gorgeous with rice, chips & plain nan bread. All of it was gorgeous. The staff were very welcoming & were very friendly. Lovely little restaurant with...

We made a reservation but still had to wait a short while which seemed to be fairly standard. This place is in a really good location hence they can't satisfy the demand on busy weekend evenings it seems – many folks who hadn’t booked were told they’d have to return much later. This is clearly a very successful business!! Still,... More
