"I recently dined at Basmati restaurant and was quite impressed by the lovely atmosphere and the thoughtful arrangement of the tables. The ambiance truly added a charming element to the dining experience. However, while I appreciated the atmosphere and presentation, the food itself was just average and didn’t quite live up to my expectations. Furthermore, I found the wine selection to be somewhat disappointing. The restaurant has great potential, and with improvements in food quality and wine options, it could elevate the overall dining experience. The attentive staff and cozy environment are definitely highlights. Overall, I had a decent visit to this restaurant, but there are areas that could use some enhancement."

The food here is excellent, though a bit on the expensive side, but the quality makes it worth it. I ordered a beer that arrived just as I was finishing my meal, but to be fair, they were quite busy. Overall, I would rate the food a 4, the service a 3, and the atmosphere a 4.

Everyone as their own taste. I ordered a selection from here. It was food in abundance. Sadly it lacked umpphhh.... It's never bad food it just lacks seasoning, every dish had zero spice. It was a let down. As I ordered so much I could of frozen over half. It wasn't worth it. Always lovely staff, prompt, generous portions. Great naan and puree. Aloo gobi must be fresh or the potato goes black and is vile. OK the rest wasn't 5 star but I ate it. I think maybe I will tackle a hotter curry. Staff are great, foods super fresh, generous, delivery staff are really nice. I'd defo eat from here I just must change my taste. This place ties have my attention....
