Cinnamon Tree

Had dinner here with my girlfriend a couple of months back on a Friday night. The restaurant appears very modern, but the menu retains a traditional (or at least familiar) look to it which I quite liked that - a best of both worlds situation if you like. There weren't many diners in the night we went, I expected it to get busier as the evening went on but by the time we left it was still quiet - maybe the rush comes later. Saying that, its open-plan design and bright white tablecloths probably made the spaces more conspicuous.

Anyway, the food we ordered was delicious. The curry my girlfriend had she still talks about now, I wish I could tell you what it was! Regardless, my food was equally good and made better by some well chilled lagers. Service was courteous and prompt, but perhaps a little formal. This may be the 'style' they are going for given its ‘minimalist’ appearance - a far cry from the patterned carpets in curry houses of yesteryear.

Can't remember what our bill came in at, but I remember thinking it was very reasonable especially given the location.

I am told there are two things all restaurants want their customers to do, come back and recommend the venue to others. I'd happily do both.
