"We recently dined at Rustam Restaurant, and it was a delightful experience that I highly recommend to anyone who loves authentic Indian cuisine. Ambiance: Rustam Restaurant boasts a charming interior with a blend of traditional Indian decor and modern comfort. The warm lighting and tasteful decor create a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. It’s an ideal spot for a romantic dinner or a fun night out with friends and family. Service: The service at Rustam Restaurant was exceptional. The staff were courteous, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the menu. They provided excellent recommendations and made sure we were comfortable throughout our meal. Food: The food at Rustam Restaurant was the highlight of our evening. We began with a mixed appetizer platter that included samosas, pakoras, and paneer tikka. Each item was bursting with flavor and perfectly spiced. For the main course, we enjoyed the chicken tikka masala and lamb biryani. The chicken tikka masala had a rich, creamy sauce with tender chicken pieces that were cooked to perfection. The lamb biryani was fragrant and flavorful, with each grain of rice perfectly cooked and infused with spices. We also tried the dal makhani, which was smooth, creamy, and wonderfully spiced, and the garlic naan, which was freshly baked and wonderfully soft. Dessert: For dessert, we had the classic gulab jamun and the saffron-infused rasmalai. The gulab jamun was soft and syrupy, just the way it should be, and the rasmalai was light and delicately flavored, providing a perfect end to our meal. Overall: Rustam Restaurant offers a fantastic dining experience with delicious, authentic Indian food and top-notch service. Whether you are a fan of Indian cuisine or new to it, Rustam Restaurant is sure to impress. I highly recommend this restaurant for its outstanding food, excellent service, and warm, inviting atmosphere."

"I booked in for a Bollywood night. There was 4 of us, 2 people are meat eaters and 2 people are vegans. When I booked online as suggested by a member of staff when I called, as if they couldn 't do it over the phone (all the bookings where hand written on a piece of paper when we got there, oh and the only thing that was noted is that i paid £20 deposit but not the fact that our table required vegan based menu) in the notes section online I specifically said we will require a vegan menu. When we were seated at the table the waiter didn 't give us a drinks menu or a set food menu for us to look at. When they served food I questioned about which one was a vegan option, the staff looked very confused they didn 't know what I was talking about. Asked to speak to a manager, the waiter didn 't even bother getting the manager so I had get up to find someone only to discover that the manager was not available as he was in the kitchen busy, im sure that he was completely unaware that there is a table that required a vegan option menu. A lovely female member of staff came out from the kitchen assuring me that there is vegan based menu, trust me there wasn 't. The starter was ok, but to have 2 potato dishes, cauliflower and lentils as a main with £40 ahead and no desert, for a restaurant its pretty appalling. The menu for meat eaters was ok, really not worth £40 ahead. Now we get to the service... poor doesn 't even describe it. Chef came across as having an attitude every time he attended the table. It did not feel very welcoming or accommodating towards our needs, and it came across as a bother. After the mains We were not even asked about deserts, I had to get up and ask if there is any deserts to come, 2 of us had a desert, which was ok, too frozen couldn 't even use a spoon but for vegan option all we got As a desert is coffee black, couldn 't even have milk as had no other milks available.£80 for a standard of vegan options we had was absolutely outrageous. Most waiters didn 't really understand if you asked them a simple question, all we got is I go and get someone but that someone never came. I never write reviews because opinions do vary, but after this meal I was extremely disappointed with the restaurant atmosphere, attitude and just simply not valuing their customer. There was only one lady that worked there behind the bar that actually was helpful and pleasant."
