We had a fantastic meal here today. Friendly attentive staff. The restaurant is nicely presented and has a good vibe. Nice music throughout. Food was exceptional, really enjoyed it. Highly recommended. Yum Yum 😋
What a dark horse this restaurant is! Walked in on a Friday evening without booking in December and was accommodated without hesitation even though the restaurant was busy with Christmas parties by the looks of it. Great atmosphere inside and the service was swift and efficient. The food was absolutely stunning! The flavours in all the food was quite simply Devine. The head chef coming out to speak to us and take time to talk about his food and awards he has won was a really nice touch. We would all recommend eating here and will certainly return again soon 😁 Thanks for a great meal and experience!
We really enjoyed our meal here on a recent visit to York. We arrived at 10.30pm and the restaurant was empty, we asked if they were still serving and they said they were. I was a bit worried that we would be rushed through our meal but the staff were keen for us to have an enjoyable experience. They were very friendly and polite. The food was great, excellent quality and the curries were delicious with depth and flavour of spice and seasoning. We will definitely return here when we visit York again.
Visited here on 25th Jan 2026. The food was delicious and portion sizes were large. The naan bread was soft and tasty and exactly right (for me anyway). The service was prompt and friendly. Although York has lots of places to choose from and we were spoilt for choice we were definitely not disappointed at all with this lovely restaurant. Very clean throughout. With a view of Clifford's Tower it's a little gem not to be missed.
Lovely restaurant, food was absolutely amazing, the staff were great and reasonably priced. Highly recommended
