Lovely service as usual but starting to be let down by some really mediocre flavoured dishes. Biryani was good but the accompanying vegetable curry was little more than half a can of carrot and coriander soup, water and a few canned vegetables very poor, watery and completely bland same for the cauliflower just crappy looking and tasteless. The chicken tikka is much too ‘middle of the road’ and lacks ginger, chilli and lemon and a decent marinade time. It’s a convenient restaurant for us since the Saqui in Carshalton Beeches changed hands and went rapidly downhill last year, so we’ve eaten here much more often. I think it would be worth the staff tasting some of what’s coming out of the kitchen especially the sides .., or try the Surrey Palace in Ewell!! As someone who spent many days in India, and gauges food relative to how I can cook it, the restaurant is sadly missing the mark a little too often. It’s almost like the chef is scared to present food in the way it’s described in the menu..,and takes too many shortcuts…brown pilau rice isn’t acceptable at all and is caused by adding cardamom, cinnamon, star anise and cloves to hot water whilst boiling rice. That isn’t OK ; … and suggests the chef here isn’t ‘on point’ any more…shame
