"a first visit on Saturday at high-time. although my wife was before, and very recommended the place. eating was excellent, one of the best chicken bobabs I have ever tasted, the staff was helpful and attentive, although they were cleaned away from the feet. few problems but stood on our table waiting with sosse of the cooks who throw the food around while it was prepared. at the table I was probably at the seat, next to a service door at the back of the restaurant. I was quite hard on the back by someone with heavy wood servier plates. then shower with sparkling, as she laughs with birthday cake with fireworks. then, finally, there was a collision between two workers to fly bowls of dirty dressing, which shot among our men and sprayed us with a lot of sauces and liquids. will I come back? I bet I'd risk eating under life gunfire to try the kebabs and brot again."

"Were meeting our daughter off the ferry on her birthday and decided to take her out for breakfast for a birthday treat. Checked trip advisor for reviews and this place looked great. I can only assume that the reviews have all been written by friends of the manager.After all the good reviews we 'd read, we were disappointed with the breakfast. AFTER we 'd ordered we were told there was no mushrooms and we 'd be given an extra instead, which turned out to be disappointing tinned tomatoes. Those that had the full breakfast were given one fried egg, whilst those on the light option were given two, which was clearly the wrong way round. The toilets were disgusting; the worst I have seen anywhere in many a year. As I was paying I was asked if everything was ok, and when I said about each of the above, she just said 'yes ' as if to say 'I know, but that 's the way it is ', no such thing as an apology."

"I am never disappointed by my visits. But yesterday’s lunch broke all records for deliciousness. It must be years since we last had minestrone soup but what a tasty warming choice for the first day of November. And then … great big generous king prawns in cream with a touch of chilli and a life enhancing splash of ouzo. A taste sensation! And absolute bliss."

"Upon our arrival, Dad was greeted like an old friend, and we were promptly shown to our table. I noticed a few families speaking Indian dialects, which I took as a great sign that we were in for some authentic cuisine. I was not disappointed! For our starter, we ordered the chicken poppadoms, which were a fantastic light and tasty entrée, featuring a lovely crunch from the poppadom topped with a generous amount of chutney, coriander, and spices that complemented each other beautifully. For our main courses, Dad went for his favorite lamb rogan josh with steamed rice, while I chose the chef's special, chicken tikka pulao rice, accompanied by a few chapatis. Judging by the silence at our table as we enjoyed our meals and the subsequent clean plates, both dishes were a hit! The lamb was cooked to perfection, and mine was a dish I had never tried before but will definitely recommend. Can I recommend this place? Absolutely! If you're in the Northeast, especially near Newcastle upon Tyne and craving Indian cuisine, look no further. While the prices might be slightly higher than at other restaurants, the exceptional service, outstanding food, and overall wonderful experience are well worth it."

"Visited twice this week, once in the evening and once at lunchtime. Food excellent quality and love the bread and spreads that come when you have ordered. Service efficient and friendly, surroundings quietly understated. Will certainly call again when in Whitley Bay area. Can recommend the happy hour menu (ample for lunch) and also the evening menu for two people."
