| - Brand new restaurant that has opened within the last week.
It's a restaurant with most of its locations in India, with locations in the UK and the Middle East.
The dishes are served on a cast iron plate which sits atop a wood base/plate. Careful when the food comes out its hot!
Decor is clean and minimalistic but works well. The server was pleasant and happy to make suggestions which was helpful.
They have a large menu with many options. Several fish, beef, chicken, and some veal options with differing sauces and accompaniments. With each dish except for the specials you choose between a garlic, Szechwan, pepper, and mushroom sauce.
We tried the following:
Special Kobe Veal with the mushroom sauce: tasty, and works well with the veal.
Special Beef and Chicken combination: asked for the beef medium rare came out essentially medium. Went with the Szechwan sauce, and a fried egg on top. Chose the mash potatoes as a side. Also has vegetables and gravy as do all the dishes. Steak was pretty good but a bit chewy. The chicken however was very tender and flavourful.
Special Mixed Grill dish: a great way to try the different meat options. Priciest entree on the menu about 33 dollars.
Mixed fish and prawns: went with the garlic sauce. Came with fries. This was very tasty - the fish was very tender, flavourful, and essentially melts in your mouth. Definitely one to try!
For desert we had the special sizzling brown with ice cream. Not bad, brownie was ok and ice cream as always works well with brownies. Comes out sizzling, worth a try but nothing spectacular.
For drinks they also have a mocktail menu which we didn't really try much of. Can't comment more on that except to say there were options for piƱa colada, and other common cocktails (no alcohol of course)
Bottom line: this is an interesting restaurant with a solid variety of dishes. Flavourful, and a different take on the usual halal themed restaurants. Would go back. Expect to pay about 30 dollars a head.
