Myself and my fiancé went here for a lovely dinner last night, we dine out in Indian restaurants a lot in Belfast and came up to magherafelt for a visit. Lovely decor and ambience in the restaurant. Staff were pleasant and attentive. The food was absolutely superb. I ordered the chicken tikka masala and my fiancé ordered the monkfish balti. The garlic and coriander naan was to die for!! Will definitely be back when we are back in Magherafelt!!
