Second time here and there will be more visits for sure. Such great service for a start. Profession and polished greeting and efficient, friendly staff make it a really great place to spend the evening. Not forgetting the absolutely delicious food! The place is stylish and the menu contemporary and provides something different to the usual. Highly recommend.

Wonderful place to eat or there where people sat outside just having a drink. The food was great and different from the normal Indian. The staff were great to and the speed of service was 10 out of 10. Very good value for money.

Booked here for my birthday. Restaurant was busy but good atmosphere. Staff were helpful and food was served promptly and tasted great. A contemporary looking interior with reasonable prices too. Will definitely go back and recommend to others. Free parking too,always a bonus in city centre.

A great contemporary Indian venue. Interesting take on a Scotch egg , great flavours, excellent presentation. Pricey but sophisticated Indian dishes. Friendly service. Definitely returning.

Group of 5 here on a quiet Monday night. Seated quickly, staff friendly, served in good time. A fantastic start and really just got better from there. Excellent food and lovely surroundings. This was actually the second time I've dined here, same as the last time it was spot on. One of the top South Asian restaurants in Derby.

Nice enough The waiter Nelson(?) (Portuguese) was amazing. He did a fab job. The menu was limiting but it just may be their way to ensure everything runs smooth. Some chose to have starters as mains which restaurant was fine with. Presentation perfect and scenery was beautiful. I didnt like the bar stools they were too high I should have sat on the bench side but you live and you learn. Overall a nice evening and the price was actually decent

Birthday Treat The restaurant is beautiful clean and spacious ! Our food was really good and decent sized portions ! We went in quite early so lots of staff standing about chatting especially around the food service area which is a bit off putting ! However the staff member who served us was a really lovely member of staff Courtney, she was really attentive and very professional. She asked if we were celebrating anything at the start of taking the orders it was our daughters Birthday...to our surprise after our mains were cleared away she appeared with cake and candle and a selection of staff sang happy birthday this was a lovely touch Thankyou Niccos ! The cocktails are also 2 for 1 up to a certain time and they do lunch time specials also . A great place !

Never disappoints Always a great meal here. Good quality ingredients, fresh and hot, served in an imaginative way. Good veggie choice too. We like the open kitchens too, great to see the master chefs at work!One niggle would be the 2 for 1 cocktails though. I would question the alcohol content. I could barely taste any alcohol for all the fruit juice and didn't feel tipsy at all after 2 cocktails (normally I would feel it half way down the first drink!). Please can management look into this, it was a disappointing part to the meal. Other than that, the food is fabulous.

Overpriced and very small portions Me and my partner went here for a romantic meal. We are used to Indian fine dinning, so we were looking forward to enjoying something to eat here. I was shocked to see the menu as this was very limited and the chicken curry dishes felt very similar with not much choice. We ordered something from the grill and a chicken curry, however there was no mention of the level of spice which made it rather bland. When our food arrived we thought they were starters due to the portion size, even though we never ordered any starters. The nan bread was as thin as a piece of paper and the rice came in a bowl that wasn't authentic and was the size of a baby's portion. The two for one cocktails were just full of ice and very little alcohol. After we had our so called meal i was still very hungry and had already racked up a bill of over £48 for 2 mains, 2 side dishers and 2 drinks which i was starving afterwards. The only positive note I can think of is that we were not waiting very long for our meal which begs the question that the food was already pre cooked and not fresh at all

Simply now the restaurant to beat in Derby Went here for a family meal and I must say it was amazing. To start the restaurant ambiance was just perfect. Loved the decor and how they had laid out the restaurant for the diners. Now onto the food, let me put this simply it is now the restaurant to beat in Derby hands down. The food was amazing cooked to perfection and the best curry I have had in Derby. Staff were attentive and friendly but as with all good restaurants they never bothered you to much and were their when we needed to order. Fully recommend this restaurant if in the area. 5 stars

Amazing. Post graduation meal for family. Amazing cocktails. Amazing curry. Amazing service. We shall return. The cauliflower salad and the chicken curry were outstanding. Friendly knowledgable staff. Good atmosphere. We felt looked after. We don’t often eat curry out as we can cook at home but this was great value and good quality.

Date Night Recommended to us by our daughter. Food was amazing and Zam our waiter was lovely. Can’t believe how busy the place was for a Thursday night. Only got table for 1 1/4 hours as it was booked for later so advise that you book in advance. Will not be disappointed and this is now our new Indian
