"I hate to give a bad review and don't do it lightly but unfortunately I wasn't actually able to eat anything besides the poppadoms and some naan bread here due to lack of understanding about allergies. I came in with my family after a trip...out on a seabird trip and was looking forward to something nice to eat. The menu had a key at the bottom with the usual (v)=veggie (n)=nuts etc, but the Tikka Masala which is described as having cashew nuts, didn't have that (n) next to it, which called into question the whole menu for me since I can't take any risks (if something had cashew nuts and didn't happen to mention it in the description and also missed the (n), I'd probably be in hospital). We asked our waitress with some assistance but she seemed to have a lot of trouble understanding us/anything to do with allergies and left us none the wiser. I'm sure the food would have been lovely but unfortunatley with no one to ask and no faith in the menu, I wasn't able to order anything properly. To the restaurant, I'd really recommend brushing up on your policy and training around allergies/general communication with customers. The food looked lovely so it was quite a shame I couldn't have any!"
