Absolutely loved this place! The flavours were authentic, rich, and beautifully balanced each dish felt like a warm invitation to India/Bangladesh itself. The mixed starter was delightful spicy hot and tasty. The chicken Jalfreizi was tender and spicy, the Naga beef was perfectly spiced and tender, and the keema naan was warm soft with just the right garlic butter. The service was warm and attentive, making the whole experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone craving delicious, soulful India/Bangladesh food! 5 stars. Can’t wait to come back soon.

Me and Claire came for a curry on our stay in Newport. Warm poppadoms came out with a good chutney tray. The vegetarian sharing platter to start was tasty. All of our paneer dishes were decent, but I would have liked the paneer a bit crisper. Finished with kulfi, which was very nice. The mojitos that we drank were nice too.

First of all the look of the place is really exquisite, old wood panelling mixed with a modern flare really creates something unique and special. The service is very friendly and helpful, they told me that they had been around for 30 years and are one of the only businesses left that made it through COVID in that little street. That filled me with confidence, I got take away chicken bhuna and taka dhal and they threw in some poppadoms. I ate these on the way home as it was a 20 minute walk to where I'm staying unfortunately these were overcooked and not great and I started to worry about the quality of my meal. I'm not joking that it was such a good tasting curry I can forgive the poppadoms this time and still give the food 5 stars. Rich aromas and flavours with a decent kick and packed out with chicken, I will have the dhal for lunch today. Will I go again probably tonight after work lol

We very much enjoyed our meal. Everything was delicious! Food was well cooked, very tasty and just the right amount of spice. We were down from Birmingham for the Newport Marathon. Staff were very friendly and helpful too. We thought the decor looked lovely. We would definitely visit again.
