Highly recommend!
The food was so delicious, homemade and so authentic in flavour. We loved the themed interior, fish tank and gentle music in the background. Recommend the cheese samosas. The octopus croquettes were also super yummy. For mains we ordered goat curry and salmani chicken. We ordered sides of roti and parantha. The portion sizes were more than enough for us and left overs were happily packed away for us to take home. Everything tasted so fresh and moreish and was topped off with a great Tequila sunrise cocktail.
The evening was such a treat.. the chef Hema and her husband make a great team 👏
A new local favourite..
We will definitely be back for more!
Thank you so much for accommodating us ☺️
Wow!!! Such a find. We dined there for the first time tonight. Recommended by a friend and we were so pleased they did. The restaurant is between Caversham and centre of Reading but even though its not central do not let this put you off. The food is to die for and the owner was so so friendly and service was great. Everything is homemade and so delicious. Highly recommended. I rarely do a review on the same night but totally awesome evening tonight.
We stumbled across this place on our way to another restaurant. We saw that they had a few vegetarian and vegan options so decided to try. It was DELICIOUS! Everything cooked to order; Hema was friendly and helpful. We ordered a Curry Burry (chickpea fritters) and a Red Kidney Bean Curry (with potatoes) as well as parathas and a portion of basmati rice. We had a train to catch so couldn't stay to try the desserts, but we will definitely come back with friends/family! The decoration is quite nice too, feels like a little escape to Mauritius. Prices were reasonable too.
We went as a party of 5, 3 adults and 2 kids, and the food was absolutely delicious. The cheese samosas we're absolutely delicious as was the chicken catless. Two of our party are from Mauritius and said it was authentic and very tasty. Food was cooked to order and the service was great. The chef even made an off menu curry sauce for one of our party to cater for allergies.
It was quiet while we were there but we went for a very early dinner (4pm) so that's to be expected.
Would 100% recommend this place and will be going again.
Came for a dinner with my family. Food was delicious, especially the biryani. Staff were friendly and helpful when ordering as it was our first time eating Mauritius food. Owner also came out and was super friendly again guiding us on what to get. Restaurant was clean and decorated nicely. Would definitely come again
My partner and I were trying to find somewhere to eat, then he mentioned this place so we went. Hema was so welcoming and funny, then we met her husband who was exactly the same. She explained so well the dishes, and because I struggle with spices and chilli, she made me my own "Fake Curry" 😂. It was delicious. The drinks were so tasty and the setting was cosy and very perfect for what they are trying to present to their customers. My partner and I enjoyed the food so much, we couldn't remember the last time we enjoyed food this good. We will be back, and you have to try it. Plus they have the best vegetarian samosas. Top service!!
Had a fab meal for my partner's birthday a few nights ago. The couple who run the business are so friendly and welcoming and the food was absolutely delicious. The lady who owns the business is from Mauritius, so its all totally authentic. It can be really spicy too if you like it spicy (or mild if not!) We tried a wide variety of things. I'm veggie and there were tons of options for me. Everything was really great. We'll be back!
Really lovely place with great cocktails. We had the Mango Rum and the Espresso Martini, lovely and strong!! The owner and staff are super friendly and happy to talk about their passion for Mauritius. We will be back for the food very soon, which looks great and completely authentic. Highly recommended.
Never been here? Do it! Lovely owners, cooking fresh flavoured Mauritian food. Dhal Puri, taro fritters, aubergine curry & daube ( bean, potato & tomato stew). OMG! Then I found the cute little hut out back- can book. If you like rum - they have a lot of kinds to try.
Had an absolutely fantastic evening here. Both food and cocktails were gorgeous, with food clearly freshly made by the owner herself. I read another review that said how obvious the owners passion is for what she does and I couldn't agree more. The decor and atmosphere was really fun, really feels like you're on holiday. But most importantly I cannot fault the friendly and courteous service, made us feel like members of the family. Will absolutely be returning 😊
