"Booked as a table of 10 (work night out) we are all nurses and having a well deserved night out. Arrived to be told no booking in diary. Person who organised said she booked via Facebook and got a sharp reply “We need to confirm” she said you did and showed him the reply!! Sent to the bar whilst we waited for a table, took around 15 mins. Due to the new covid rules And one way system this meant we had to Go out and come back in when table ready. Plastic screens also on end of tables but to be honest made no difference as the diners were sitting at either side and the screen isn’t wide enough to offer any protection. Some Waiters wearing masks, but most didn’t most of had them on their chin!! Popadom and pickle tray ordered. No idea what was on the pickle tray!! No onion salad or lime pickle, the only one any of us could determine was mango chutney! We all had starters and mains, all food piping hot and no one complained about quality of food. It was all very tasty. Asked for some to be boxed up to take home. Boxes just put in middle of table. One of the group didn’t notice this and his meal was taken and disposed of. Had he had almost 2/3 left! Anywhere else I’ve been they always box for you! Even just a cheap special on ocean road they always box it for you!! Drinks ordered at the table, had to be chased up on one occasion as one drink forgotten. It’s the service that lets this place down. The food is lovely but I’ve had same quality food with better service on ocean road! And it’s cheaper!"

"The website claimed to cater for Vegan diets "if you are a vegan we can cook a bespoke meal following strict vegan principles with no dairy products or, if you would like something cooked in a specific way our chefs will be happy to cater to your requirements "When asked for our order i asked the waiter what vegan the meals the chef could prepare. The waiter didn 't understand and i explained that it was a step on from vegetarian and was food prepared without any animal products, eggs, diary etc,. Initially i was told that this would be impossible as most of their food is pre prepared and cant be altered. I asked if he could ask the chef. Instead of asking the chef the waiter suggested i tried the Panner Pakora or King prawn Tikka for starters followed by Lamb Achari for mains!!!! As i was with a group i didn 't want to upset eveyone and the waiter was clearly not understanding or willing to ask the chef, i eventually asked if they could cook a vegetable biryani without gee and in vegetable oil. I have no confidence this was cooked as requested. That aside, the starters arrived within 3 mins of ordering and were clearly precooked and warmed making them dry and unpalatable. Within minutes of the starters been cleared the main courses were on the table, no time to digest the first course! Most of the party thought the main course was acceptable, but nothing to shout about and considering the service and rush through would not be back again. Probably the worst restaurant experience I 've had and with so many good places locally in Pudsey and Farsely, i wont be going back!!"
