This restaurant does traditional and does it well. It's such a great pity that so many of the branches closed when the pandemic hit, but the recipe is still the same (though a bit more expensive) - good homemade food. Staff are friendly and there are working microwaves if you need to heat up your food. Bathrooms are clean and neat. It's a bit cramped and when it's full, you certainly feel a bit claustrophic, but overall, an uncomplicated traditional good time.

Food is nice and fresh. U can choose variety of dishes. More like house food. But a variety. Would recommend

Nice place yo get a quick bite Tasty samoosas & pies
