Spacious and airy, plenty of room, good decor and a couple of TV screens that show Indian pop music and various Indian channels.
Service
Excellent service, the staff are very attentive and keen. A buzzer system is used if you need to call them to your table.
Menu Choice
A great selection, one of the best around, many many dishes and various strengths of curry are available. Lots of specialty dishes as well as the standard curries. Good choice of starters and most dishes available with mixed vegetables or mushrooms as well as the standard chicken, lamb or prawns. A good range of beef curries which is unusual.
Food Quality
Superb – the quality of meat and the richness of the sauce is a reminder of curries from years ago. The beef dishes are very tempting. Chicken Bahar was spicy and rich. Prawn Balti has a depth of taste and strength that is unusual.
Value for Money
Excellent, cheap prices and quality food.
Overall Rating
5/5 – well worth a trip to the Rhondda.
