“ Went out for a meal as a family group with young children. Mostly vegans. Restaurant is very family friendly. Casual. Large menu with many vegan options. Lots of choose from. Service was friendly and efficient. Food was fast, fresh and warm. Loved that we got fresh cutlery and warmed plates between courses. Ordered several things to share. Was amazing meal. Thank you to staff for making it a great evening. ”
“ Booked here for my daughter's 21st Birthday. The staff here were very welcoming and polite. The decor and surroundings in point. The food was really good - We had the Crispy Bhajiya as a starter - These were crisp, plentiful and well seasoned. The accompanying chutney was great. For mains we had the Lily's Special Signature Sizzler that was basically like a meat free version of a 'Sizzler' you'd find in a good Desi Pub - Tremendous. Also had a Masala Dhosa, Paneer Makhani and Soya Chaap - All great. Drinks are reasonably priced too. At the end of our meal our server brought out a nice sweet treat surprise for my daughter - A really nice touch I thought. All in all I would say if you want good authentic Indian vegetarian food give this place a try. ”
“ Wonderful veggie and vegan Indian food, with record-breaking service! Friendly staff welcomed us to our pre-booked table and our order was taken as soon as we were ready, with the food arriving, wonderfully presented, what felt like moments later - I’ve genuinely had slower service in fast food restaurants! The vegan options are extensive and counting the ‘can be made vegan’ take up around 70-80% of the menu. A great range of dishes for all tastes and spice levels. Everything we ordered was great, especially the aloo gobi and veganised paneer butter masala (using tofu in lieu of paneer). After our meal we stopped by the deli in the other room and picked up some Indian sweets for later - all clearly labelled if vegan. Really impressed with everything but the speed of service especially - definitely recommended by us if you’re in Ashton or nearby! ”
“ Absolutely loved this place. From the moment of arrival the staff were friendly and attentive. My dining companion (vegan) was helped by the charming young man who took our order, and our food arrived very quickly. We enjoyed an unhurried and relaxed three course lunch, then bought cakes from the takeaway shop. The food was delicious. This place is right up there with the very best Indian restaurants I've visited (and I've been to a lot!). Thank you. ”
“ Usually when it comes to vegetarian restaurants everyone has to is perception that it’s not gonna be tasty and they would lack flavour and option! Well let me tell you that this is not the case when it comes to this place. Food was absolutely amazing and felt it was cooked fresh. You feel like you are in India. Everything was super authentic and flavourful. Options are endless and you have some many too choose from to a point that you will end up ordering more than you can handle. But have no worries as you will finish them all cuz they are super tasty. Staff are very attentive and helpful. Definitely recommend this place and I am sure you will go over and over again. ”
