点评:Came here because of all the good things I’ve heard, but left feeling the most disappointed in a meal in a long time.
Had to wait 30 mins for our order to be taken, whilst there was lots of staff and only 3 other tables in the restaurant. This is the longest I’ve ever waited for an order to be taken, even at restaurants at full capacity. Granted, there seemed to be a lot of takeaway orders, but that doesn’t mean ordering the food takes almost as long as them cooking it. Made it feel like it was purposeful in hopes we’d buy more drinks.
When the food did come, it was very underwhelming considering the reviews. It wasn’t bad, but it is exactly the same as every other curry house. You get curry with bland oversized chicken chunks in it and no other veg, and the rice has frozen mixed vegetables in it. My partner had the pilau rice alongside, and they were very generous and garnished it with a single pea and carrot chunk (again, from a bag of frozen mixed vegetables). Considering it cost ~£50 for two curries, two rice and cokes, I expected way more from it.
We spent around an hour and a half here, and myself and my partner are very “in and out” kind of people and most of the time was spent waiting for them to take our order. On top of that, they put a 10% service fee on top of the bill for the privilege!
翻译:因为听说这里好评如潮,所以来这里用餐,结果离开时却感觉这是很久以来最失望的一顿饭。
我们等了30分钟才有人点餐,而餐厅里却只有3张桌子,服务员却很多。这是我等了最久的点餐时间,即使是在客满的餐厅也是如此。诚然,外卖订单似乎很多,但这并不意味着点餐的时间和烹饪的时间一样长。感觉他们故意让我们多买点饮料。
菜上来的时候,考虑到评论,感觉非常不尽如人意。菜品本身还不错,但和其他咖喱店一模一样。咖喱里只有淡而无味的大块鸡块,没有其他蔬菜,米饭里则放着冷冻什锦蔬菜。我的同伴点了一份抓饭,他们非常慷慨,还配了一块豌豆和胡萝卜块(同样是从一袋冷冻什锦蔬菜里拿出来的)。考虑到两份咖喱、两份米饭和可乐的价格大约50英镑,我的期望值远高于此。
我们在这里待了大约一个半小时,我和同伴都是那种“进进出出”的人,大部分时间都花在等他们点菜上。更糟糕的是,他们还额外加了10%的服务费,以换取这项特权!
