Awful. Sooo disappointing. My partner used to go years ago and was longing to introduce me. signature dish "pan fried butter chicken" tasted and looked like plain boiled chicken wings painted orange with no evidence of being anywhere near a frying pan or the spice rack and just spread out on a plate, no onion, salad or garnish bland, bland, bland. Curry was lamb in a thick, salty sauce - again no actual flavour. Pilau rice very odd - greasy, not fragrant and dotted with frozen peas.

Waiter made us feel uncomfortable by repeatedly saying he would "look after us if we looked after him"!!!

When we expressed our disappointment the duty manager asked if we'd been before and upon hearing that yes indeed we had years ago his response was "aah well, it's not like that now" He offered to bring us something more favoursome, but what came back was exactly the same! just a bit of coriander scattered on top.

Nasty food, nasty place.
