EXCELLENT Based on 141 reviews Mike Turner2025-09-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Saw these guys had plenty of rock solid Google customer reviews, so thought I'd give them a go for a change.. Dropped in early Tuesday evening - just after 5pm.. Friendly greeting from Ibi, their Manager. Decor tidy and attractive - everything very clean and tidy.. Good food and drink menu - plenty of choice but not too overwhelming. Went for the Achari chicken with keema rice - took the option of making it madras hot. (Nice to get offered the option) Was very tidily presented - flavour was spot on (well balanced, pleasantly hot but not at all unpalatable - just the right amount of pickle sharpness which a good Achari gives) - ingredient quality high, meat very tender and well marinated, generous portions - but not too overwhelming or wasteful. Plates, cutlery and tablecloths all spotless. Talking to Ibi, it's clear they take price in what they do - their phone rang constantly whilst I was there with people ordering takeaways, confirming there's many in the area making the most of a very good local business. First impressions from first visit was very good - and will definitely get into the habit of going more regularly - as it's a notch above anything else I've tried on north side of Derby and surrounding villages.. For intimate romantic meals for two, the open plan seating layout may not be what you're looking for, but I'd honestly encourage anyone to give it a go - it strikes me as a rock solid place to get good food and attentive service at a very fair price.

Some of the best Indian food I’ve ever eaten. Fresh and flavoursome, really cant fault the place at all. Lois Fearn2025-07-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The best Indian restaurant in Derby. Can’t believe we haven’t tried it sooner. Booked a reservation to come back, while we were there. The meat is that tender it could be cut with a spoon. So much flavour in all the food. Friendly staff. Very filling, but do not feel too bloated after, like at some restaurants-which is perfect for us. Quality is amazing. Can’t wait to go back. Victoria Fearn2025-07-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Professional and sociable service. It's a long time since I've had an Indian meal as good as this, it was outstanding, full of flavour, extremely tender meat and heat hot. Throughly enjoyed all of the meal, will definitely be returning 😋. Sam Grundy2025-07-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
