Although there was no one else in the=20 restaurant when we visited today, our server was = impatient and rude. The plates were dirty & = service=20 was slow. When the food finally arrived, the = portions=20 were small and the food was unappealling. My = Thali was=20 =C2=A313 yet had less food than if I had ordered = a seperate=20 curry, rice and naan which would have been two = thirds of=20 the price! The lamb looked as thought it was = bruised and=20 old. I was not able to eat my food, yet when I=20 complained, the staff refused to take the meal = off the=20 bill and started to shout at me. This place is=20 HORRIFIC... the worst dining experience I have = had in=20 London. Avoid the Bengal Villiage at all = costs.

We had high hopes for this restaurant = after a=20 previous indifferent visit to Brick Lane, and = having=20 read good reviews. We booked just the day before = for 8=20 people as it was somebody's birthday. On the = night=20 itself we were running 15 minutes late and = called the=20 restaurant to let them know and they confirmed = that it=20 would be fine. And then we arrived, the guy said = they=20 had no booking and they tried to palm us off = onto two=20 small tables in different parts of the = restaurant. Quick=20 thinking on our part got us into the Le Taj = across the=20 road which had a superb double menu! Won't be = going back=20 to the BV though and I'm still thinking that = Brick Lane=20 is really losing its touch.
