**Dine-in Experience** **Meal Type:** Dinner **Food Rating:** 3/5 **Service Rating:** 2/5 **Atmosphere Rating:** 1/5 I recently dined at this restaurant for dinner and had a mixed experience. The food was decent, earning a rating of 3, but it didn't quite hit the mark for me. Unfortunately, the service left much to be desired, with a rating of 2; the staff seemed overwhelmed and not very attentive. The atmosphere was the most disappointing part of the evening, receiving only a 1. It felt uninviting and lacked any charm. Overall, I was left feeling underwhelmed and unlikely to return.

I visited this restaurant for a birthday celebration this evening, and I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of the food. The Nepalese chili chicken starter and chicken momos were absolutely outstanding, and the curries were incredibly flavorful. As a family, we tried a large variety of dishes from the menu, and everything we tasted was delicious—there wasn't a single complaint. The portion sizes were generous, and the service was impeccable. We will definitely be returning here again. Thank you for a wonderful evening!

Fundamentally, the Timur curry with lamb I tried was a very unusual flavour. It's was very nice actually. Slightly naturally sweet like a korma but brown and no added sugar like many Kormas are faked. But. A curry. That has large pieces of lamb that are over cooked or under cooked however you want to take it. Was plain wrong. The meat was hard. I could never serve a curry with hard meat. I would cook it slowly for a long time or hard until meat was tender. Very very poor. The mushroom rice was nice. The Ghurka beer a must try. Very smooth. Staff were polite. I told two of them when they asked that the lamb was under cooked, both smiled and quickly exited. Lip service only. I was presented the beer with glass and bottle. Perhaps the young waiter was new. But I would have preferred it poured. Or at least that they asked if id like it poured. They had a very much feel of almost silver service especially how deferent the staff were. But think it was a bit of show really. The restaurant was very posh for a Indian restaurant. Ambiance was very nice. Thoroughly disappointed by the cooking of the curry.
