What people say, in short
Aga's draws repeated recommendations for Pakistani and Indian cooking, with goat chops a recurring highlight. Individual diners also single out chicken handi, chicken karahi and butter chicken. The praise is not unanimous: some find it overrated or dislike particular curries, including a diner who compares the butter chicken sauce to canned tomato soup. Long waits are another reported drawback.
