Bustling atmosphere at times you wouldn't expect in Stortford, unusual, good quality menu (a few 'traditional' main courses if you want them but try the tapas, including (excellent) horse!), friendly and helpful service and, if you're a world beer fan, you could spend a happy, boozy afternoon here and never have the same beer twice. Doesn't open late though, so have lunch or an early dinner here and go for drinks elsewhere.

The table layout is the best part of this restaurant; there are areas where you feel you are in your own room, so ideal for a bigger group. The rest can be summarised as 'curry house'. No surprises good or bad. I find the food consistently good and service consistently fine. If you are looking for something a bit posher try Devdas, if you want cheaper try St Albans Tandoori but enjoy the variety available in St Albans and put New Gulshan on your list.

I go every Sunday I get the chance for their 'banquet' - which is about £14 a head for a veritable feast. They lay on a selection, including popadoms, veg/meat pakora, chicken tikka pieces and then a selection of curries which change on a weekly basis. There is basmati rice and usually a selection of five dishes, for example Bombay aloo, veg curry, chicken korma, chicken tikka masala, lamb pasanda, chicken bhuna... Never anything too adventurous but it's aimed at pleasing everyone. There are also fresh naan served on request. As well as the Sunday feasts, they do fantastic a la carte food. They provide takeway or eat-in. The restaurant itself is really tiny, so I would usually do take-away. Personal favourites include the motor and saag panir, brinjal bhajee (melt in your mouth), and the prawn poori (the poori bread is to die for). The naan is better fresh (obviously), as are the pakora. Perhaps most importantly, the team are great. They remember their customers and are always really friendly and attentive. They're happy to adapt any dish to order, as well as offering recommendations.

The menu had plenty to offer: we tend to order a main, 2 vegges, a naan and some rice. The food was good: it tasted fresh, and not in the least greasy. One slight drawback - and it's not their fault - is the constraints of the building. They tried very hard - nice cotton tablecloths and napkins, a real red rose, comfy seats, and artwork on the walls. But for all that, perhaps a little bland. It's a good restaurant. Worth crossing the town for? Probably not, cus our favourites are closer, but we'd be happy to frequent it if it was in our neighbourhood.

The Raja Tandoori is the best restaurant in Knebworth. This isn't asking much because it is just about the only one, at least if you exclude takeaways. Actually it's possibly the best Indian restaurant in the Stevenage/Welwyn/Welwyn Garden City area. Certainly, plenty of people come in from Stevenage to eat there. The menu is fairly standard for an 'Indian' (Bangladeshi) restaurant, but the quality of the ingredients is higher than most and the service is excellent.

Food is cooked from fresh while you wait, so you normally have to wait about 15mins for your curry but it is definately worth the wait. Good value too as the portions are huge and the curries always have lots of meat in them. Would recommend!!!!

Our lamb vindaloo was very good, with a nice pleasant spice, good tender lamb, and a very fruity gravy, a little more so that I typically get, but still pretty good. The butter chicken wasn't quite as flavorful as it sometimes is, but did have a pat of butter on top of the dish (hardly necessary, but why not) and the prawn disk we ordered had a similar nice dark rich gravy and lots of nice big prawns. They were shell on, which made for a bit of a mess when it came time to eat, but still very good. Our naan and papadum were also good, but...no mint corriander chutney! We probably should have asked, but it wasn't provided with the papadum. Service was attentive. I will say that this got a little expensive, but I also think that Indian food tends to be that way by the time you're done ordering all of the bread and rice and whatever else - individual entrees don't seem that expensive, but it creeps up on you by the time you're done. This is probably a very strong 3 - I'd definitely head back if given the chance.
