I was looking for a healthy meal to take away and literally stumbled on this place as they were getting a HUGE delivery. I made a comment to the delivery man who said EAT HERE, IT'S AMAZING, YOU WONT BE SORRY, and boy was he right. I now go here every chance I get, and as yet the food has never disappointed. Delicious, fast, healthy and reasonably priced! What more could you as for?

Takeaway
Absolutely Awful experience-avoid at all costs
Ordered three spice boxes and it turned into an absolute nightmare,
All three of us who ate them woke up in the middle of the night extremely sick with food poisoning
The food seemed okay when we got it at first, but something was clearly wrong. Whether it was undercooked chicken, bad oil or just poor hygiene, I don’t know but I do know we won’t ever be ordering from here again.
I don’t usually leave reviews ,but people deserve to know.This was more than just disappointing- it was dangerous and when I rang to inquire and complain about this to the food establishment the women was very rude and unhelpful which left me in utter disbelief and shock.
Avoid This Place at All Costs!!!!
This place is a disaster. The food gave all three of us food poisoning, and the spice boxes should be illegal. When I called to let them know, they were extremely rude, refused a refund, and blamed us.
This place is a joke, a complete rip-off, and a health hazard. DO NOT waste your time, money, or well-being on this nightmare!
