I've been coming here for over 10 years. The food is STILL great! I will never not love the lunch buffet and all the variety it has! The tikka, butter chicken, salad, rice, and various veggie curries are amazing!

Great food and attentive service. I love the vindaloo with lamb or chicken and the garlic naan bread. The free chip breads (not sure what the actual name is) with the 3 different toppings/dips is delicious as a 1st course. Top it off with a nice beer and you're set. 😋👍
October 2025
The only complaint was nothing was labeled!
This was a large order for a company lunch where everyone ordered their own dish. When unpacking the containers, nothing was labeled; making it very difficult to know what each dish was.
