Excellent food with generous portions at very good prices. It is just in the wrong area. It was dark when we left and I did not feel particularly comfortable walking to the car.

Pick your time. It was empty at 6:30. Food was great though, good menu. Service was a bit slow considering there were only 2 covers. That could have been down to the waitress think she was new.

Lovely bright setting. The management made us feel so welcome and took time in explaining both the drinks and food menu, to help us with our choices. Food was freshly cooked, so was warned that it may take a little longer. We were a party of 10, but all the courses came out at the right time and the service didn’t feel it was longer than normal. Manager chatted to us through out, to make sure that everything was ok and told us the history of the building. There’s a lot to choose from the menu. Highly recommended and will return.

This is a lovely restaurant that was made all the more special by its service. I brought my son and 12 family members and friends here for his 18th birthday. He has special needs and ended up having one of his usual meltdowns in the toilet. The staff were amazing. Ahmed was really understanding, calm and professional, and ensured that the rest of our party had a nice time regardless. Thank you so much for being so kind - it’s people like you that make it easier for me and my family and his carers to take him out into the community! It means a lot. The food and ambience was lovely too - we will be back. Jess :)
