A chain of Indian fine dining restaurants is celebrating after all three of its outlets were inducted into TripAdvisor’s coveted Hall of Fame.
Anoki’s restaurants in Derby, Nottingham and Burton, have received the accolade after being awarded the travel website’s Certificate of Excellence for five consecutive years.
Now in its ninth year, the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence celebrates hospitality businesses that are consistently excellent – having earned positive traveller reviews over the past year.
Recipients include restaurants, accommodation and attractions from all over the world.
To achieve a Certificate of Excellence, a business must maintain an overall TripAdvisor rating of at least four out of five and have a minimum number of reviews.
Naveed Khaliq, owner of Anoki, said: “To be awarded a place in the 2019 Hall of Fame is an incredible achievement and proves just how much our valued customers enjoy the Anoki experience.
“There is no greater accolade than being recognised by our diners - and as the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence is based on guest reviews, this accolade is a remarkable vote of confidence in our continued commitment to excellence.
“We would like to thank each and every one of our guests for helping us to achieve such a prestigious award.”
Since it was founded in Derby 15 years ago, Anoki has established a reputation for the quality of its food, which is served by traditionally dressed waiting staff.
Anoki first received the Hall of Fame accolade in 2015, the only other time that TripAdvisor has presented this type of award, meaning the business has maintained an overall rating of at least for out of five since 2011.
Neela Pal, TripAdvisor’s vice-president of brand, said: “This recognition allows us to publicly recognise businesses that are actively taking into account customer feedback to help travellers confidently experience the most highly reviewed places to eat, stay and explore.”
