Naidni Review - August 2011

The staff at the Naidni were very pleasant and attentive. They made us very welcome and are trying out several things on the menu to make a success of the restaurant in difficult times.

One of those things is the different starters on offer. We, unusually, chose to share a mixed starter - ‘the house platter’, containing lamb chop, kebab, cheese (we think), tandoori chicken and bhajees to name a few. Not traditional but very sociable, especially as we were all on a round table.

Many of the main dishes were very good but the chicken was generally dry, possibly overcooked. More consistency required to raise their score and qualify for a certificate.

Summary - A little disappointed with the main courses and some members prefer to remain more traditional. Never the less a good restaurant to visit with your partner.

Common Curry -  Comes out at an average price, although the beer is expensive, not bad value for the money.

No certificate awarded.
