Thekaa in Watford

Ah, Thekaa – what a lovely spot it's turned out to be in Watford! From what I've gathered from the buzz around it, the food is just spot on; think bold, unique Indian flavours that really hit the mark, whether you're tucking into a thali or some tasty starters. The team there are an absolute delight, always up for a chat and helping you pick the perfect dish, which adds such a nice touch to the whole experience. It's got that welcoming ambience too, buzzing even on quieter nights, and it seems to handle larger groups without a hitch, making it great for birthdays or catch-ups with mates. On the flip side, though, I have to mention that the serving ware for some dishes isn't quite as fancy as the grub itself – one person compared it to school dinners, which is a bit of a letdown for such stellar meals. Plus, sorting out the opening times might take a bit of extra effort since it's not listed clearly. All in all, it's a solid choice if you're after something a cut above the average pub grub, but do pop in when you know it's open to avoid any disappointments. I'd say give it a go if you're in the area – you won't regret it!
