2 /5 Carrielouise Stanley: There was 2 families with kids in when we arrived. It wasnt late 7ish so understandable. However, when the youngest start screaming, crying & having a tantrum, the parents appeared to just ignore it. Not a great experience. There was no music to drown out the screaming kids either.
The soft drinks had definitely been poured from a larger bottle, despite paying £3 for a glass of diet coke, it arrived totally flat! We couldve bought our own 2ltr bottles for the huge mark up for a 300ml drink!
The poppadoms were ok but the condiments that came with them lacked flavour. Even the lime pickle was relatively bland for lime pickle & both the mango chutney & the mint yoghurt, were so runny & lacked flavour.
Pilau rice was nothing special. I had a king prawn curry & i expected to see a whole king prawn in my curry but they had all been cut or mushed up. There was not a single whole king proawn in either mine or my daughters king prawn dishes. The actual sauce that the twi different curries had been cooked in lacked flavour & seasoning.
This was the first time I tried this restaurant & my daughter was visiting me for her birthday & she had really wanted to go out to an Indian restaurant.
My first choice of restaurant was fully booked but as the star rating was good & hygiene rating was 4, we settled on this place. I have to admit, the restaurant was very very clean inside. You can tell alot by the cleanliness of the toilets & they too was very clean.
Its just a shame that the food was severely lacking in flavour.
The service was OK, staff was polite & good arrived quick. So if they do read their reviews, then please please stop cutting your king prawns into small pieces. If I order king prawns, I want to see king prawns in my food. Also, please sort out the seasoning & taste issues because it was all very very blind & lastly, stop serving over proved flat coke that has come from.a 2ltr bottle..
I dont mind flat diet coke but, if im paying £3 for it, I expect it to taste of the drink Im buying. When its flat, it loses flavour. I guess it was in solidarity with the flavourless meal.
