We were let down by the local ‘Bromsgrove Hotel and Spa’ (where they had confirmed we would be dining there but when we turned up on time they said they had lost the booking so tough). We found this restaurant who were able to cater, at short notice, for a family of 15. The staff were very pleasant, the food was great and we all had a great time.

Great food, changed the menu slightly to suit our taste. Top notch

Great food. Ready for pickup when they said it would be. Reasonably priced.

My wife and I came here for Christmas day, we were really excited and in the spirit of things. Prior to booking, we asked what we would be eating on the day, (thinking we would have a choice) we were told by a member of staff "to leave it with us".The starters were very nice, so therefore we were really looking forward to the main course. Out came a leg of lamb, with salt and vinegar pringles dotted around the tray and cheap onion ring crisps placed on top. Then came a rather burnt looking chicken (or perhaps quail, due to its size) which was incredibly dry and inedible. Turkey slices arrived, which looked slimey, so we didn't even try these and the sprouts and roast potatoes on the side were freezing cold. Finally came a chicken and lamb bhuna. The chicken again was dry and unappetising and the lamb bhuna contained mainly bone. We complained about this, as we've never eaten such awful dishes. We were offered additional sauce to make the meat less dry, but ufortunately nothing could have made this meat succulent.The desserts were disappointing. A cheesecake served in a try with literally a thin layer of digestive, squirted cream and a few strawberries dotted on top, chocolate brownies, shop bought mince pies and shortbread biscuits that were completely stale . Before asking for the bill we again reiterated that the meal, nor dessert was good, but received very little reaction.The bill came, we had already paid a £20 deposit and we needed to pay an additional £80, so in total £100 for a really shocking meal, which we barely touched. The waiter did not handle it well when we stated that we would not be paying the full amount, he kept comparing us with other diners. He was not at all professional, telling me I wasn't listening to him. I said how we often visit and always have takeaways with family from this restaurant.Unfortunately we will not be eating here again, nor will we be having a takeaway due to the way it was dealt with. If I could give it 0 stars I would and it was an incredibly disappointing Christmas meal, which should have been a lovely occasion.

Delicious, freshly prepared Indian food, friendly and polite staff. Definitely worth taking a special trip to enjoy the food.

I was expecting better things from this highly rated restaurant. It started well enough but the main course were a disappointment. Both dishes suffering from dry chicken and too much oil. My Jal dish was very bitter with no depth of flavour. The sides were very good and there was a nice complementary Tia Maria "shot" to finish off with but sadly these were no compensation.

One of the worst Indian restaurants I've ever been to... Keeping aside the fact that the food taste absolutely awful the prices are pure rip-off. The image below is of Tandoori platter mix from their menu which costs a whooping £13. Furthermore, they did not even bother to change anything for the Karahi Chicken we ordered - the same tandoori plater was drowned in some Karahi mix and served. 2 biriyani's, 1 tandoori mix platter, a Karahi chicken and chips drained us close to £50.

Wonderful service. There was a mix up with our booking but they fitted our party of 7 in with no problems. Beautiful food served promptly with free desserts, liqueurs and sweets. Lovely friendy staff. Will definitely be making a return visit. *****
