Ivettes World Amazing food! I come back every year because I love this little restaurant the food is sooo delicious and people working there super nice!! thank you for another amazing dinner

Harry Lee Walked in randomly after many years of absence and ordered some takeaway. Had the chicken saag and was recommended the lamb vindaloo, both of which were very authentic and delicious. Accompanied by some steamed rice, the food was nothing short of amazing and will go back again very soon. They don’t serve alcohol, but allow BYO. The atmosphere is warm and homely. I remembered an elderly gentleman who used to own/operate the restaurant and so glad that the quality of the food has been maintained. The cost of the meal for an eatery in this area with such high quality food is ridiculously cheap. If you haven’t been, I would make a beeline asap.

Claire Johnson We stayed at the Xenia Hotel (Autograph Collection by Marriott) and had breakfast included at La Terrazza, the hotel’s Italian restaurant. The buffet was excellent, with a wide variety of proteins, fresh fruit, espresso drinks, and homemade cakes—everything beautifully presented and plentiful. A special mention to Albino, who made the experience truly memorable. He was charming and attentive, and even spoke to me in Italian after learning that I’m studying the language. A wonderful start to the day and a genuinely standout breakfast experience.

K Came here on a Saturday for afternoon tea for two. We were warmly greeted by Kante who hosted us for the evening and whose hospitality was 5*. The afternoon tea spread was good, wasn’t overly excited with the options; dessert and sandwich provided was mid & there wasn’t a lot of savoury options. The dessert was very rich and would have been nice to have had some macaroons as it goes nice with afternoon tea usually.

Sue Jones With a city saturated in commercial gimmicky Indian food spots it was a refreshing experience to taste authentic Indian cuisine. Perfect location, wonderful staff and even better food! A treat for all ages and family friendly, a true hidden gem.

Catherine Parnaby-Munck Wonderful restaurant and one of the best steaks I’ve had in the UK. Atmosphere is great, loved the jazz background music, nice decor and all of the staff were so friendly. Service was overall great, initial order was taken quickly but after our plates were cleared it did feel like we had been forgotten for a good 40 minutes - we were quite happy as we were finishing our wine and gave us time to be ready for dessert, but I wouldn’t dine here if I were in a rush, anticipate a more relaxed pace of service. The staff were all very busy and we had to eventually flag them down to take our dessert order. Steaks were incredible, as were the desserts. The sides were a little disappointing, especially the Mac and cheese - I think it was made with more of an Edam or similar, so it looked promisingly cheesy and melty, but lacked the cheesy flavour and tasted more plastic-like. Overall absolutely wonderful meal and we will be back!
