The Seven Stars — Restaurant in Cambridge

I have eaten here 5 times. It is unfortunately going downhill. Whilst the food is generally of a good quality and the prices very wallet friendly, the service is disorganised and slow. They seem to only be able to get one naan out of the kitchen at a time, even when the place is mainly empty. We once waited 15 minutes for a naan that was ordered at the same time as everything else, people had mostly finished the curries by the time it arrived. It’s quite frustrating to be sitting in a restaurant that’s very quiet, not getting served very well whilst there’s a continual queue of just eat and deliveroo riders turning up to collect things. Sure restaurants can operate takeaway service but surely should focus on getting the basics in house right too. Most recent visit I have never had Indian food repeat on me so badly, presumably due to the amount of oil or ghee consumed, the bhajis were greasy not crispy, the vegetable side dish was swimming in oil. The dosa are generally nice too but last visit they served it with dal and not sambar without a mention, as though we were too stupid to know the difference. Don’t disrespect your clientele by lying to them is a fairly fundamental restaurant recipe for success. The music is all over the place too, sometimes it’s like Eurovision techno, sometimes it sounds like Bollywood, and sometimes they put old football matches (like from the previous weekend) on BBC iPlayer on the giant TV… what is this supposed to do for the restaurant experience?! Has real potential but it’s going in the wrong direction, quite a lot of poorly attended to little details suggest they don’t really care enough about the details that make a...

We were yearning to have some Dosas in another new place in Cambridge and stumbled upon this Indian gastropub while searching on Google map while parked at Beehive Centre.This came up as nearest and looked promising ! Quite a few time limited superstore parking around ..short walk from Tesco’s on Newmarket Road. The place seemed quite well lit and spacious with ample sitting.A very courteous staff named Khadija showed us to a table with a welcome smile. We had Masala Dosa,Idli,Chicken Hariyali kebab and Fish Amritsari - they were all quite tasty - usually I like my dosa crispier and long but though this was triangular the filling more than made it up -it was delicious - I didn’t drink but the bar menu was quite aspiring - Indian whisky as well as the famous Old Monk rum was on the card along with Cobra/Kingfisher beer on tap …will need to return for this..The manager Ram Bharadwaj was very knowledgable and Khadija ( she knows quite a few languages) was also very attentive to detail. This place has got a lot of scope for the local pub goers looking out for regional Indian food ( not the usual ‘curry’) as well as desi spirits ..what more can you ask ..they need to really clarify this and advertise accordingly - All the best to the team and the owner who I found was a very soft spoken humble fellow . Note 10% gratuity auto added - not sure if this goes to the attending staff. Thank...
