Reliable and courteous parking service for visitors to London Gatwick airport.
An overbearing maitre d'combined with overpriced unexceptional food in a modern setting, this restaurant truly is a success of style over substance. If you want to see the person in the adjoining toilet cubicle through the frosted glass this is the place for you. If you prefer quality food reasonably priced and served by pleasant staff give this one a miss.
Only one dish from the 'banquet' deserved mention, a lamb rogan josh with lashings of cardommon, the rest was easily forgetable; unfortunately the price - £19.95 per person was not. Portion sizes were small which explained the refusal to serve 4 'banquets' to a group of 5, although we were told that we could ask for more rice if required. Indian restaurants have a well deserved reputation for quality and value I regret to say this restaurant had neither of these. Dr Strangelove
