Sitar Tandoori

This is our local Indian, and fulfils that role admirably. Expect nothing fancy here, just good traditional curries and other dishes served in a pleasant environment (clean lines, nice prints and no flock wallpaper, but not ultra modern) by efficient and friendly waiters. We’ve been coming here for years and are yet to have a bad meal, but at the same time we don’t expect to be excited by what’s on offer either. This is our safe choice for when we want to eat out (or order in) rather than cook.

For starters we particularly like their aloo chat, and for mains they do a great mushroom bhagi and I love their dhansak dishes. If you like things spicy, make sure you ask for the lime pickle to accompany your poppadums – it doesn’t come as standard but will fire up your taste-buds very nicely!
