A bit different. No alcohol served!

Alan said samosas were a little greasy. Robert's mixed keebab starter was massive.

Black and white theme with big crystal chandeliers.

Service was quite good.

Food disappointing though Robert liked his and Sheila said her  chicken  tikka Masala was nice though when I tasted her masala sauce it was very dry and quite tasteless and thr chicken bits were small.

My sizzler wasn't sizzling. Weird served with rice on the plate. papwr nakins

No tablecloth.
