Visited this place a good few months ago and not been back since. The prices are good, yes you do need to take your own drinks, however I've been to better Indian restaurants where the food just tastes better. I will not be returning unfortunately the meat was very dry and chewy. However I'd say it's ok if you fancy a cheap meal out nothing more.

At £6.99 an all yiou can eat buffet must be good value. Plenty of choice, well cooked, warm (often a problem with open buffets) and tasty. Worth a try.

Went here New Yearâs Eve and it was very busy. Staff really friendly and food is lovely. Enjoyed every thing we tried. You can take your own alcohol, soft drinks are available to buy. Will definitely be visiting here again.

not been for a while so an impromptu visit. Nice to see the log burner on as quite chilly. Mixed starter was delicious, the chicken tikka especially. Mains really fragrant and freshly cooked. Definitely will be going back soon. Nice level of attentiveness too.

It was much warmer in the restaurant and with new seat covers this time. Mixed starter was lovely. The mains were ok...prawn red Thai curry was really nice but the beef in oyster sauce was chewy and a bit underwhelming. The noodle side dish just looked rushed and just plonked in a dish. It felt they couldn't be bothered this time to take care over the meal. Shame as we have had some amazing dishes here previously.

Excellent value for money, we went for the £9.95 Sunday (and Wednesdays) deal. Poppadoms (but pay a small charge for pickle tray) a starter a main and a choice from rice, chips or nann bread, ice cream or coffee. Plenty as well and really tasty with good staff and a nice atmosphere.

Loved it. Hemsworth isn't famous for its fine dining experiences so I didn't expect much, but was pleasantly surprised. A diverse selection on the menu catering for a range of style and tastes. Great mixed starter with some excellently cooked fish. Mains were flavorful, generous and well cooked. Family friendly yet good for couples. Service was polite, prompt and timely. I genuinely have nothing negative to say. It's rapidly becoming my go to place for eat in and take out Asian food.
