I think the place tends to be overlooked because it's not near the centre of the town, but it's well worth the extra distance. The food is presented rather carefully and creates a range of flavours rarely found elsewhere. More extravagant dishes include local rabbit and some less common fish dishes, but the standard madras, tikka masala and jalfrezi, and others, are all on offer. There is also a large dessert menu, itself uncommon at curry houses, most of which are traditional Indian or Pakistani sweets, rather than attempts to satisfy the western taste. The atmosphere is quite relaxed with modern furniture and decorations that hint at the east but never impose. The fine touches make the difference here, such as unusual bottles of water that resemble large test tubes, outstandingly smart waiting staff, and the use of gloves when laying tables to prevent marks on the cutlery. One would be forgiven for thinking that the restaurant is pretentious, but the staff are welcoming and friendly. The prices are on the high side for a curry house, but this is truly fine curry, and the price of the food is a fair reflection of the skill and care that has gone into producing it. The only small complaint here is that the hand dryers in the toilets are extremely loud and do intrude on your dinner if sitting near to the toilets, but this is not enough to be a serious distraction to an excellent dining experience.

Like any good curry place, the spicier dishes (vindaloo, in our case) were quite spicy. Extra points for making us an off-menu side order of Chana saag (which was also delicious).

Although the price was high, you get what you pay for; top notch service and delicious contemporary Indian cuisine. Perfect venue for an important date or special occasion. I was visiting good friends in Cheltenham and they took me here on my first night to celebrate. We did the tasting menu with a bottle of wine. It was course-after-course of exquisite contemporary Indian dishes. The portions are enough to satisfy and the final course was a grilled type of salmon that melted into my mouth. I explained to the host upon arrival that I didn't eat red meat, pork or chicken and they customized my tasting menu to fit my specific request - pescatarian. Overall great service, elegant atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff and superb cuisine.

Their menu is quite extensive and when we were stuck on what to get, the staff made surprise recommendations based on what they knew we had liked from the previous night which was such a nice touch. Then, whenever we were unsure which version of something to get, they were happy to combine things. So we ended up getting garlic stuffed naans, and the saag aloo combined with the aloo gobi, which is just a level a flexibility normally not afforded in restaurants. Quite enjoyed both our meals and the friendly service!!

My wife would not have been happy with what I ordered. There is a strong Bengali influence here, and it shows in the spicy dishes. Bottom line, if the menu says the dish is hot, assume it will be. If there is no warning it will be delicately seasoned, based on our experience. We liked the food, service was good with a personal touch, and I would highly recommend coming here.

The poppadoms are a key part of the grazing ritual and I felt their offerings on dips were not the tastiest, however when the curries came I was instantly mollified, a piping hot madras with Peshwari Naan sweeter than a baby deer. They served the fish curry in a coconut so the cameras were out pretty swiftly and at £3.80 a pint of Mongoose it is hard to not enjoy this place. It's a 10 minute drive from Cheltenham Centre which is a tad frustrating but is walkable from Charlton Kings. Thanks Koloshi.

The garlic naan wasn't the best we've had but the daal (a bit dry/low on flavor) and masala hit the spot. The price (19 pounds for everything) wasn't too shabby either.
