As much as it saddens me to write this, I feel I must. We came here a few weeks ago only to find that this restaurant has now changed hands.
I ordered the Tandoori Chicken again anticipating the wonderful food coma I had once experienced with this dish... unfortunately, it fell short of 'heavenly' this time. I was left feeling, sort of, just... meh.
I was hoping that it was just a one-off, a bad day perhaps, so I decided to leave it a week or so and try them again.
We came back last week, again for the Tandoori Chicken (using it as a benchmark). The food was good but nowhere near what it had once been.
Don't get me wrong, the food IS still good and I will continue to come here but it's simply not as good as it was. The rice isn't as good as it was, the seasoning and flavours aren't as good as they were and the hot sauce isn't as good as it was. The service? Nowhere near what it was.
I miss the charismatic gentleman that used to be here every time we came. The level of service we received from him contributed to the overall experience and the 5-star rating I had given not too long ago.
I am sorry to say but I really believe they are no longer worthy of 5-stars. I hope things return to normal but I'm not holding my breath. Very sad.
