Reviews Overview
Most Liked
Many patrons rave about the vibrant flavors and spices that define each dish, especially the Lamb Mandi, which has become a signature offering. The atmosphere earns high marks for its cleanliness and cozy setting, attracting diners looking for both a quick bite and a leisurely meal. Mint tea is a crowd favorite, praised for its refreshing taste, while the range of desserts, particularly baklava, leaves a lasting impression. The attentive service, with staff like Brother Aziz being highlighted, adds to the overall positive dining experience.
Most Disliked
While most experiences are positive, some diners express concerns over wait times during peak hours, especially on busy Sundays. The dinner crowd can reach capacity quickly, sometimes leading to a more cramped dining experience. A few reviews point out that despite the robust menu, some dishes may run out during busy times. Others have mentioned that the seating arrangement may feel less spacious when the restaurant is full, which could impact comfort levels for larger groups.

The restaurant looks really nice since the recent refurbishment, beautiful and clean with great service and pricing for the portion served. Family rooms cater for a more private setting for sisters which is considerate and the food is soo flavoursome (I recommend the lentil soup to start with and for mains, chicken wings). Can’t wait to come back and try more dishes :)
