Excellent Restaurant overall, we had the "speciality" lamb shoulder with couscous, apart from the lamb portion being enough for 4 people while have a couscous portion not enough for one person it was great.

We had the belly dancer coming on the day we came, and they tried to make a musical entrance for her while ended in the most funny way by having the CD stuck because it was dirty! we and all the diners had a good laugh when the waiter started techno dancing instead.

Regarding the prices, they are a bit steep, but from sunday to thursday it is for 15£ ( the days when the dancer doesn't come) which is quite good.

overall, the restaurant is excellent, the only problem you might have as one reiewer said is the problem with the seating which is designed around average height slim people.

Absolutely disgusting, with the exception of the starter of greasy pigeon samosa, which was fairly good it was all horrible, and the waiter became very aggressive when we suggested a discount because we couldn't eat the vile couscous and grotesque confit. We actually felt scared towards the end.

welcome was very good, as was service overall. belly dancer was a novelty. set menu was varied, other than 2 choices of duck & both served with mash ! calamari was EXCELLENT & lamb shank tagines melted in the mouth. good venue for group parties due to the novelty factor. low chairs a little challnging for diners with long legs. set menu price of £21 for 2 courses maybe a little expensive & probably due to paying the belly dancer her fees for the night.

would go back again & would recommend to friends.
