    Very tasty food in a nicely decorated restaurant. Good atmosphere even for a Sunday evening when restaurants are usually fairly quiet. Nice wine with very good overall service. First time visiting this restaurant and will come again when in Brighton. Excellent value for money.

    Really enjoyed our first visit - this restaurant deserves its reputation of the best Indian food in town. The food is excellent, portions are large and it is very good value for the skill and flavours. We will definitely be back. Service was a little erratic but charming. The noise levels were quite high and the tables deep so sometimes it was a strain to hear conversations but there is a buzz and energy even early in the evening.
