Lovely selection of mithai with rich, authentic flavours. The shop is clean and well-presented, and the staff are friendly. My only suggestion would be to add clearer labels for some of the sweets to make choosing easier. Overall, a great place for quality mithai.

I think the whole of Leicester should know by now that their samosas are one of the best. The vegetable samosas here is something I crave so often. Amazing taste and I want to try more things from there, I’ve heard the jalebis are really good.

Best samosa shop I’ve visited in the Uk and that’s saying something. Kenya style samosas and chevrda are absolutely gorgeous. I’ve not seen their dhania/coconut kachoris available anywhere else. The shop has been open for over 50 years in the same family, parking is an issue but I’ll keep visiting every time I’m in Leicester.

A small shop with pure veg delights. A real taste of India. Veg samosas to die for. Petis, Kachori, and Jalebi are always on my list of things to get whenever I'm passing. Been going for over 40 years and long may they be there for us.

Lovely authentic Indian snacks, great service, just a shame parking is limited and no dine in service available. The samosa has to be the best in Leicester without a doubt.

Best samosas in Leicester. Having tried samosas from many other local shops, I can safely say these are by far the best. Staff really friendly and helpful, letting us try different savouries before we buy.

I only come here for one reason and that is their jalebi. Many sweet shops have thick rings and the filling goes everywhere. These guys make theirs thin and as a result of that, it's very crunchy. I love it.
