Every time here has been a wonderful experience. If you can, please get to know Khaled and his team and works. The food is brilliant and they've always been very helpful if a request is not on the menu. Brilliant service and genuinely lovely quality. Thank you so much.

On holiday in this little town. Looks can be deceiving and this is definitely the case in this little restaurant/takeaway. Highly recommended after our visit eating in. Curries were amazing that we had. It would be our local curry place to go if we lived here. Nice friendly waiter too. :)

Khaled, the owner, is one of the most hospitable and welcoming hosts around. His goodwill is never ending, often rounding down your bill so you have a discount, and throwing in an extra poppadom. The food is delicious and certainly tastes authentic.

Called in Sunday evening, never been here before as visiting Wales. Excellent food, starters prawn on Puru and onion bhaji, chicken tika and chicken tika masala, garlic nan and pilau rice. All food was excellent and the nan was the best I've ever tasted

It's one of the only places I feel comfortable eating in at and staff makes you feel like family. Been going since 2009 and will be going for many more years. Really good place to have a meal for a family gathering
