Our Guestbook
“ On top of some truly DELICIOUS food, the young gentleman fielding phone calls and take away orders at the counter was wonderful. We sat next to a table that was bombarding him with questions and he answered every single one with patience and kindness, and exemplified an "above and beyond" attitude. If/when we visit Islay again, we will absolutely be returning here. ”
“ There were 7 of us, 5 adults and 2 children, and everyone chose different meals. The food was absolutely delicious, and the guy that served us was lovely. Definitely would recommend the place. We are on holiday and go home today, or we would definitely be going back! ”
“ I’ve been to India and had some amazing Indian food in my life. I certainly did not expect to have Indian food of this caliber on a small town in Islay of all places. Absolutely incredible food. Very fresh tasting, not too heavy, and with a proper spicy kick. Even the naan and paratha were great. The lamb biryani was among the best executed I’ve ever had. Usually lamb tends to be overcooked but here it was tender and flavorful. A well deserved 5/5 ”
“ Excellent food, and extremely helpful when I said I was vegan. Really excellent, and a very pleasant surprise after other plans had fallen through. ”
“ What a great restaurant. Service was great, both our curries were fantastic. Everything was so fresh and tasty. I would definitely recommend this place for food ”
“ We ate 2 nights here the food was absolutely delious and the service was friendly would recommend we were the only people using the restaurant but they were very busy with continual take away orders. I would say an update of decor in restaurant and an alcohol licence might encourage more to use it, but don't let it put you off ”
“ Definitely one of the islands gems, a must try if you like your currys and its surprisingly as good as the currys you get on the mainland if not better, if I do say so myself. :)) ”
“ We ordered 2 dishes that were absolutely amazing. Best butter chicken we have ever had. A big thank you for providing 2 Aussies with a late dinner that we will never forget! ”
