    It was a wonderful evening, and the food was delicious. The staff were excellent and very accommodating, but it was a shame about the heater's condition in the Pod. However, I will be recommending the restaurant to family and friends!

    Overpriced and overrated. Choice on menu is very limited Food wasn’t hot which I assume is partly due to the fact that it’s served outside ( no inside choice! ). Doubt Chicken Tikka was cooked in a tandoor as no skewer ‘holes’ First and last visit I’m afraid

    The service was very, very bad. Your food was very cold and bad. I am not happy at all and I will not come to that restaurant again and it took a lot of money from us and I tell people not to go to that restaurant.

    The food and atmosphere was disappointing. Too expensive for what it is plus the food was a bit tasteless to what you'd expect for the price. It was very noisy as we was put in an Pod with an plastic door covering. Heard good reviews so decided to visit to celebrate our anniversary weekend. Never will be visiting again.

    We dined in the restaurant. Food was great but served on cold plates. No ambience as it was empty - everyone were coming for the pods. Doors were continuously open with people arriving and so there was a continuous cold draft. We wouldn't eat in the restaurant again.

    Was good but now very poor. Service is shocking, food for the money is a rip off very similar dishes, limited choice. Would never go back again

    My second visit. We were with friends who have not been previously to Ponsbourne or in pods. They were pleased and enjoyed the experience. The food was super and different to normal Indian restaurants and made a very pleasant change. Not the cheapest but good value and worth visiting you. The service was good and the staff were polite and helpful. You will be seeing us again with other friends soon. Kind regards, George Abraham.
