The worst Buffett/restaurant experience in my life. My friends and myself went there with table reservation and most interesting part was that we were asked not sit in the table which was reserved for us by saying it is very busy and can't give the table just like that and is only for reserved. Me and my other 2 friends repeatedly said we are also reserved and it's us. They didn't bother to hear us and gave us some other seat. After started to have the meal, owner came (same person who spoke to us earlier) and said us that the table is actually for us.
Then saying about the food, the main course

A lovely buffet with friendly staff and a good variety of good. Great for those who want a true taste of India especially as they have genuine street food, (bhel Puri and dosa's).

Service was slow and poor. Food was average, chef was never at his station to order the fresh cooked options. The curries were to spicy, the lamb was so dry. The desserts were laughable. Then, they charged me higher price for my 11 Yr old as according to them she's a student price not a child. Will I go again, definitely NOT... should have gone to Zaika's just outside of the Red Dragon Centre, the curry their is a 100 times nicer, even though the service in their can also be slow but at least the food is freshly cooked to order.

If I could give no stars and leave a review I would. Ordered from too good to go. Shocking this is 2 'bags' supposed to come to £28 (£13.99 each) what a joke. Wouldn't have been so bad if the food was nice tasted like a jar of curry I would get from supermarket, lacked flavour with a bit of rice and 2 chicken nuggets. AVOID don't waste your money.

Food was good, did have to wait quite a while to give my stir fry mixture to the chef as he was out back, wasn't much variety of sweet treats, drinks were reasonably priced. I was disappointed as they had put a 20% service charge on even though it was a buffet where you help you self. My fault as I only checked after I had paid. I would eat here again.

I have only given it 1 star so that I can leave a comment. The only good thing about this place is that it was within walking distance of the hotel's nearby. The service was not great, after waiting quite some time to be asked for drinks I approached the bar to request drinks only to be given a glass and told to help myself after I had gone back to my table. The drinks tastes watered down and cheap. The food itself was cold lacked flavour and tasted vile. I'm so glad I wasn't very hungry as this is the first time I have left a buffet feeling as though I didnt eat. My surprise however was yet to

1. The staff are incredibly rude. I walked in and even though nobody else was in and it had been open half an hour the woman tutted when I made her get up. She then made me pay before sitting down. Even though 4 people came in after and were shown to seats without paying.
I went to the place with the woks 3 times to get a noodle dish and the chef ignored me.
2. The food is average. Actually better than red hot buffet but not as nice as Fed. All the curry tasted exactly the same just a different colour.
3. No atmosphere at all, no music, just the sound of a man cutting veg.
4. The desert options

Proper madras Indian food,my mother in law who born in India said that. It wasn’t surprised me with less variety and only chicken but taste is really good and making fresh food in front of you is credit. Eventually, I am really enjoy it. Thanks for making me proper Indian food.
