I purchased a Groopon voucher for takeaway and when I tried to ring to place an order I found the number was disconnected so I drove to the restaurant. When I told the guy behind the counter he said with a sheepish grip "oh yes we are changing our number" which seems a strange thing to do when you have just released Groopon vouchers. I placed my order and was told it would be at least 1/2 hour wait so I went out to my car. I re-entered after about 20 minutes and the same guy was now out in the dining area and he simply pointed to a bag on the counter and said "that's yours". It had clearly been sitting there for some time as the food was almost cold. When I got home I experienced the worst Indian food I have ever had. I had ordered Chicken Tikka Masala and Lamb Rogan Josh. Neither tasted anything like they should have and both were very dry and over/poorly cooked, very salty and little sauce. They were so unenjoyable that neither dish was completed. They were simply terrible and I will not be back.

For an Indian restaurant, it was quite vibrant inside. Not sure if they were short staffed, but there didn't seem to be enough people for the size of the place. I mean even though we were getting takeaway, we had to wait quite a while for service.
Ate the food at home, and can't say that it was any better than average. We had the 'shared entree', the samosa being reasonable, the onion bajee (sp?) was ok and the deep fried things were meh. Followed with a very coconutty butter (dry) chicken and a quite decent lamb saag. We requested a bit hot for both, but only the lamb dish had any real spice to it.
Naan was good, rice was standard and the cucumber raita was fresh.
Would I go back? No
