Throughly enjoyed my meal, the service was amazing and the presentation was exquisite! Definitely coming backPosted on Google Matt PTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This restaurant/ take away used to be the best in the area, the food was always well flavoured and had depth. The last two I’ve had have been poor, greasy and tasteless with chewy meat. It’s clear things have changed, the menu is different and the ingredients seem much poorer. It’s such a shame. On a positive, the delivery driver is one of the most pleasant and nice guys I’ve come across. Always happy and smiling.
