Beautiful!!!

Staff were super accommodating, mentioned we were vegan and they came to take our order straight away rather than doing it via QR code.
Extremely tasty and quick service. The soya keema curry and garlic naan were gorgeous. 100% recommend!

Perfect spice

Service was great, food was amazing!
It was nice they offered different spice levels, my friend can't handle spice but I love it.
Ordered the butter soy meat masala at a level 4 spice and it had the perfect amount of heat. The naan was perfect as well.
I will definitely be coming back to try the level five spice.

Pros: Service, Food portions.

Super accommodating GF, veggie & vegan restaurant

My partner and I have just done four weeks Ayurvedic treatment in India and have specific instructions about what we can eat and drink and VOG fully delivered what we need. They have a vast menu of veggie and vegan curries and dals, alongside Indian breads and rice dishes. Each one is customisable for spice level.
