Good food, but you may not get what you order.
  6 / 10
It's a good night out and the staff are friendly despite drunken louts.

Lets judge the food though.

It is fairly priced and what you get is tasty, but what you get isn't necessarily what you order. If you order the same dish over two different nights, you may get something completely different.

You can also order two different dishes and get the same dish each time.

To me, it seems like they just pass off a generic curry to their customers who pay good money.

Most dishes appear to be tikka covered meat with brown sauce glooped on top, and they vary the amount of garlic, onions or chillis.

I once comaplained that my Tikka Masala was more like a Tikka Korma, but they insisted that they are the only curry house (in the country?) that do it right, and a tikka masala is a very mild dish.

I also once ordered the same dish over two separate nights, one had chillis and garlic galore and it was one of the best dishes I ever had. The next time I ordered this, I had no chillis, or garlic, and instead had a potato.

I don't like to be fobbed off, and I like to get what I order.
