The staff seem very friendly and speak English & Spanish equally well. The restaurant has seating outside on the terrace, although we were put off by the traffic being so close, and a large airy inside area where the bar is. It is decorated very tastefully and felt very comfortable.

The food was very nice, if a little on the bland side but Indian food does vary so much from place to place, but a good choice on the menu means there should be something to suit all tastes and is not overly complicated with too much choice. A take-away service is available with a 10% discount off the sit down menu prices.

Set menus start at €14,90 per person and single main meals range from €8,90 to €16,90 with a large selection of side dishes, rice and naans.
