"Been here many many times, usually turn up without booking often after a long walk in the fields but they never seem to mind. The staff are always very friendly and welcoming, one of them recommended 3 dishes to us which went so well together we returned again for a repeat eat! (Bombay biryani, speciality black house dahl Saag in white wine and cream. The Himalayan Ghost is also beautiful. Great food. Lively atmosphere of a weekend, quieter rooms at the side and an outdoor area. Lucky to have this place. Thank you!"

I highly recommend this restaurant! The food is excellent, earning a 5 out of 5. The service also deserves a perfect score of 5, and the atmosphere is equally impressive, receiving a 5 as well. It's a great dining experience all around!

Having dined in many establishments up and down the UK, and abroad, this is quite simply the best Indian restaurant I know. So friendly and helpful, clean and meticulously presented, the food is always to fresh and tasty. Wonderful menu and although marginally more costly than others locally, well worth the extra pennies.

"After reading the reviews we was really looking forward to eating here ,however it turned out to be the worst tapas and worst service we have ever received . After waiting 10 minutes for someone to take our drinks order we then waited a further 30 mins to be served with what can only be described as toast with tasteless mushed up tomatoes on , this was inedible and hardly touched , a further 20 minutes on and we was served a single dish of chicken between two of us again this was very bland and resembled nothing like a original tapas dish more like a chicken korma again this was hardly touched . When I enquired as to where the rest of the food was I was told they was very busy . With this we decided to cut our loses and asked for the bill . Before leaving we tried to have a conversation with the manager who is also the chef to give some honest feedback ,however he wasn’t open to listening , he’s response was “it’s normal in a tapas restaurant to receive one dish at a time between two with a large gap between dishes wasn’t it explained to you that’s what tapas is “We felt this was a very patronising remark as we eat tapas on a regular basis and know this is definitely not the case . To matters worse there was people who came in after us with multiple plates and tucking in nicely to their meals . The manager who was obviously struggling to cope on a busy Saturday night should have just apologised and admitted our order had been overlooked . If you are looking for authentic Tapas with excellent service in Wigan go to Casa Carlos this place doesn’t deserve your hard earned money ."
