I moved to the area recently having lived in London for the last 15 years. Researching indian restaurants in the area this place seemed to have quite good reviews so I thought I would give it a go. Im not one to write negative reviews (or in fact reviews all that often) but I feel this is very warranted. I ordered two curries, three side dishes and a starter. One of the two curries literally tastes like a tomato stew and totally bland, with quite a strong taste of canned tomatoes - albeit it had a few few fresh tomatoes in it too. The other curry the only taste of spice was the tikka marinade on the chicken. Every dish tasted like spices are on ration at this restaurant ! I thought maybe they are having an off day so I called them up. The manger told me there is nothing wrong with any of it and put the phone down on me ! The onion bhaji were soggy, tasteless and just tasted of oil, the channa was fairly tasteless and the chickpeas were undercooked, and the curries as mentioned were very very bland indeed. If you enjoy a tasty curry I would not recommend and the attitude when I raised this was awful. I dont believe for a moment that the guys who work here would be happy to eat the food they are serving. Dreadful

Food was to a good standard but the service let it down. We opted for the buffet menu which had to be pre-orederd. It wasn't the buffet you could help yourself to. The food we received was tasty but some of us left disappointed as the food arrived at different times and not all together. Be it that we were a big table of 12 but the restaurant wasn't that busy. Maybe understaffed? Not sure. I would go again in the hopes that service could be better

Definitely the ugliest building in Wells, but definitely the best Indian restaurant and takeaway! - consistent and very good quality. BYOB
