Motijhell Restaurant

Good Points:

Very cheap

err..that's it

Bad points:

Had to ask for menu

Had to remind then to bring my drink halfway through my meal.

Had to ask for napkin.

Poor attitude of staff.

I visited this small restaurant as it appeared small and I thought the service would be attentive, being small.

How wrong was I?

It all went wrong from the start. Firstly, I was seated on a table with nothing on except a salt and pepper pot. After waiting a few minutes and twiddling my thumbs, I thought I'd ask for a menu as it seemed like the right thing to do. After all, I was in there to eat.

I was given a menu and duly ordered my food.

Ordered a very standard chicken dish which was swimming in oil!! Most unappetizing. Never, the less I managed to fish the meat from the oil.

I then had to ask for a serviette/napkin as I wasn't provided with one. Then, realizing I was thirsty I noticed I hadn't been brought the drink I ordered. Admittedly, it was only a glass of water!

Eventually I got the bill and asked the waiter if the service was always like this. He answered "we are very busy tonight and we get many people in all the time". That's absolutely no excuse as far as I'm concerned. And I will not be visiting here again in a hurry (if at all)

My very favorite Indian joint in London when I did a study abroad there. Admittedly it's been a couple of years (2001) since I was a regular, but I come back at least once a year when I'm in town. The staff (mostly the family of the owners) are remarkably friendly and the food is quite good.
