Delicious, and extremely attentive service. Flavor and textures of all the food was some of the best I got to sample in font, and 10€ lunches, great way to try it!

We had a fantastic meal with great customer service. Despite all the negative reviews we decided to give the restaurant a go and we were definitely not disappointed. The staff spoke English (which was very helpful with our limited French) and everything we ate was fantastic.

Really good experience overall. Got chicken vindaloo, palak paneer and garlic naan I went there for lunch, we got served fast and the servers were really nice. I would definitely recommend, especially as there are not many other options in Fontainebleau.
