The only reason why I chose this restaurant was the excellent reviews. Don’t get me wrong, I love Indian food, but I am on holiday in Portugal, and I want to enjoy typical dishes. That being said, I was basically lured to this place based on the very positive reviews. So, a couple of days ago, I made sure I had my reservation (made on the same day of the dinner) at 20:00. On my way there, I noticed that some guys were spreading flyers for the restaurant, so I had the impression that they needed customers. Anyways, once there, I waited for 10 min to be seated, which is perfectly fine, right? But still a bit weird considering the above (people recruiting customers from the street). Regarding the food: we tried vegetable samosa and paneer pakora as starters and chicken Karahi and lamb korma as main dishes. The starters were ok, considering the low price. The chicken Karahi was fine, while the lamb korma was way too sweet. Chicken/lamb korma is one of my absolute favorite dishes in Indian cuisine. I have never been to India, but I tried this dish all over Europe (France, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, UK, Bulgaria), and the one I had last night was so sweet I had to ask for salt, which is something I find very rude of me. I was a bit disappointed, but I appreciated the kindness of the waitpersons. As a last point, at the very end of the dinner, I realized why this place has so many reviews: once you pay, the manager asks you if everything is fine -and if you are like me and you don’t want to make a scene if something wasn’t perfect, you answer “yes”-, and if you can drop a nice review on google/TripAdvisor. A handshake and lollipops follow this. I found this quite weird, and I felt a sense of despair. The dinner was really cheap (20€ per person), but I recommend it only if you don’t have great expectations and want...

Excellent Indian food! My wife and I just retired to Lagos from Texas. We’re not experts but we know what is good and the food, service, and atmosphere here are great! We’ve been here twice in the last 7 days and will keep coming back.

The waitstaff are prompt and speak good English. Not sure about Portuguese? The menu is in English and Portuguese.

We’ve had the Chicken Tikka Masala twice, plain naan and garlic naan, veggie samosas, veggie pakora, mango kulfi ice cream, and gulab jamun. All were excellent!

The atmosphere is casual, calm and comfortable with instrumental music playing softly in the background. The tables are linen covered, topped with decoratively folded linen napkins. A fine-dining touch!

The cappuccino coffee is excellent!

They provide hand sanitizer and toothpicks after the meal, and they serve hard licorice candy in a cloisonné bowl with the ticket. Such a nice touch!

I highly recommend...
