We've been an occasional tale-out customer for quite some time, more recently the food hasn't been so good. Hard to put my finger on the problem but it's certainly less enjoyable. Meat quality seems to have suffered, last visit the chicken tasted cheap and was a little off-putting.I've recently found out that they've recently achieved a zero food hygiene rating. On that basis we won't be returning - sorry Spice Dunes
Lovely relaxing restaurant with very nice food.. can be a bit too spicy sometimes but very enjoyable.Love the noodle main dish.
Not a lot of people know this, there are a few, but not many, true Indian restaurants in Britain, almost all of them are Bangladeshi - this place is also Bangladeshi.Formerly Saffron, the establishment is under new ownership, new management and a new name. Unimaginatively called Taj Mahal (how many Taj Mahal's must there be in Britain?) although trading very much under the same conditions as before - no alcohol served, but not minding you bringing your own. Beer, wine and spirits, they will willingly open for you without scruple or corkage.There's a definite upgrade in the menu options and this probably matches the rumour that the chef has been poached from the renowned Bath based Rajpoot restaurant - if so, an asset indeed.There's been a cosmetic paint-job inside, although the layout is much the same.A no frills establishment on the main street of this enlarged village serving good sub-continent cuisine at an acceptable cost.Worth more than one visit.

Indian/Bangladeshi restaurant and takeaway, and home delivery. Taking large bookings. Catering available.
So this place had been open a week when we visited last Friday.Reception / take away counter was busy to many customers not enough staff as the phone was constantly ringing and the queue was getting longer.However after about 5 mins we were seated at the table.It's a bring your own alcohol restaurant so were given glasses almost immediately and soft drink order was taken.Food ordered. Came out in a reasonable time served by the only waiter (very busy but very friendly and attentive).Food tasted lovely and fresh with good sized portions.Keema Naan was exceptional. So food was delicious hot and very tasty.Coffe was not good but was taken off the bill as neither of us drunk it.Waiter said a new coffee brand will be sorted out very soon.So I would recommend this lovely restaurant will be going back very soon.

Having tried a few Indian take outs this is not on our list. Not much to say about it really just does not match up to the others

Firstly, I have to say the food was really nice. Unfortunately the waiter (jeans and T shirt so not entirely sure) was not there to greet us when we arrived, another customer had to go and find him. We ordered some popadoms but once finished the used dishes sat there for over 10 minutes with no collection. Up to this point no drinks had been offered (you have to bring your own alcohol) but my partner wanted a coke. Once the meal had been eaten, we waited for at least another 10 minutes with no sight of the waiter so ended up going into the take away to pay. The waiter seemed to be running that too. It is a real shame, such nice food at a reasonable price could earning them much more (in tips if nothing else) but the lack of service was a real let down.In addition the kitchen hatch and the door to the loos was filthy where hands touch it.
