Here's the rephrased review: After three years, it was great to return and see some familiar faces still on the team — the staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful. We went for the unlimited thali at £19.99, which carried a £2.95 supplement for the railway lamb curry, but it was absolutely worth it. The thali plate offered a generous variety of options and was fully refillable, though service did feel a little slow when it came to attending to our table. I also ordered the £14.95 deal, which included a curry and a drink, but was surprised to find an extra £2.95 charge added for my juice.

The food was ok but this is not

Visited Tamanga for lunch and ordered the chicken biryani, which cost £16.99. Unfortunately, it was very disappointing and nowhere near what I would expect from a proper biryani. The chicken tasted strange, almost as if it had been taken from an old curry and mixed into rice rather than being freshly cooked as part of the dish. The flavours were off, and it simply did not taste like biryani at all. For the price, the quality was not worth it. It felt like a waste of money, and I left disappointed with the meal. In my opinion, the restaurant is more hype than substance. I would much rather sp
