"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 went to the Old Manor for a lunch time meal with my wife and we were served quickly for our drinks... However, that 's where the positive experience ends I 'm afraid. When we received our drinks we were not prompted to order food and it took a good 10 minutes after drinks to get approached for ordering food. Do bear in mind there were only 3 tables on at this time so it wasn 't Busy . We only ordered mains and nothing else, expecting it to be quick. And thankfully we did only order Mains, because if we had ordered a 3 course we would have probably been there for over 2 hours. Fast forward 45+ minutes (Yes you read that right it took over 45 minutes for our food to arrive. We ordered the Burger and the Chicken Escalope. It doesn 't take over 45 minutes during a quiet time to fry some chicken, chips and grill a burger. When we received our food the only positive really was that it was piping hot. After we started to dig in, the food was mediocre, nothing to rave about (Which is unfortunate, because The Old Manor used to be such a great place to get food. The waiting staff didn 't check up on us for the Post food delivery checkup so we ate it quickly and thankfully there were no issues with it. This isn 't the first time, however that we 've had service this bad. In the last 6 months we 've been 3 times, one of which was Mothers Day and even then it wasn 't the best and service was super slow. Overall it 's an understaffing issue, both front of house and kitchen. I do hope you take measures to improve the service here. As this has caused such a dampener on what should have been a lovely lunch with my wife. Do better."
