Went for an evening out at this curry house. The food was very good, tasty and nice spices.

I was staying in Shepton Mallet for a few days and happened upon this place. Got lucky I think when we walked in. Table for 2? No problem. The mark of a good curry house for me is the pops and chutneys, and how quickly they get a drink on your table. Answer: super quick. And the pops/chutneys were superb. Granted, they’re not difficult, but some places do somehow manage to mess it up. Service wasn’t “overly” friendly (which is a good thing), but friendly enough, fast, attentive and straightforward. I’m a stickler for a good veg samosa, and these hit the spot. Delicious. For main, I had the mixed grill and I have to say, quite possibly the best mixed grill I’ve ever had. Tender lamb, beautifully cooked chicken on and off the bone, onions and peppers still had a bit of crunch and not incinerated. Daal masala on the side; equally good. If I ever find myself in that neck of the woods again, I’ll be making a bee line for the Mughal. Thanks guys!!

A short walk from a hotel we stayed at. We arrived, and were seated straight away. Given time to choose from the extensive choice of menu. The staff were attentive, quick, and polite. The food was absolutely delicious and very much enjoyed by both. We ordered two curries, both were as nice as the other. We shared chips, rice, naan bread and samosas. All of which were tasty and cooked perfectly. The chicken was tender. A birthday cake candle set the smoke alarms off but staff were quick to act and reassure everyone that actually it was just smoke from the birthday candle. We carried on enjoying our meal with very little disturbance. Cobra Indian larger went down a treat. Reasonably priced and very much enjoyed.
