We went as a group & were given a room upstairs in the restaurant. Got platters of starters to share & some recommendations from the waiter on naans/rice.

This is a really good Indian restaurant. I recommend booking. The menu is extensive, but the tables small (especially is it's for 2). If I lived in Waterford, I would make this one of my regular haunts.

We spotted this by chance and decided to give it a go, we had no reservation anywhere for a Saturday evening and had already been turned away from 1 place even though it wasn't even 6 o'clock! The food here is very, very good + really close to the mark; having been spoiled when living in London you get to... More

The food here is good but there is better Indians in Waterford that offer better value meals and welcome you to bring your own wine!

The food, the atmosphere, the staff, the price.......really there is nothing bad about this place. It ticks all the boxes. The food is authentic and bursting with flavor. The restaurant itself is bustling with life and the staff are so helpful. They can easily cater for large groups but booking is advisable as it is in-arguably one of the busiest... More
