    We ordered take away last night, it was very average indeed, the chicken satay was a long way away from what one imagines when ordering. It was dry, char burnt chicken with a weird colour and texture with the weakest satay sauce I've ever encountered.. My wife's starter was so greasy. The main chicken curry was hot spicy as requested, but the ingredients though were bland and over cooked my wife found a fish bone in hers!! The side vegetables had given up long ago swimming limp in watery soy sauce. Overall very disappointing.

    Food was very good, and cocktails are decent. Service was attentive but not too eager, and they were great at keeping to dietary requirements. The menu should have something for everyone. Definitely recommend
