Reviews
"Highly recommended. Had a great welcome from the owners, restaurant was busy, lively, food was great, although I expected better but isn't that the case with most of my India experience. Amazing history and heritage. I attended the 1928 Institute talk with Shashi Tharoor and stayed on for dinner."
"Great restaurant with ties to India’s history in the U.K. It’s pretty affordable too and the staff are very friendly. I really like their South Indian parathas and Chana masala. Their samosas are also pretty good. The resteraunt is quite busy, especially during dinner time so the service can be a bit slow. But otherwise, a good, affordable place to have Indian food."
"Delicious delicious food. Love this place which is at the top of a hotel. Unique colonial vibes, nothing fancy just good food. Paneer dosa was delicious. Pani purri was crunch and the aubergine dish was to die for. Starters were samosas and onion bhajis. Everything tasted fresh and homemade. Service was incredibly accommodating and friendly. Prices were very cheap! Can’t wait to come back here!"
"We had the set menu at £22. Very affordable. The main items on the menu that were interesting were the papadums, masala dosa, onion bhajis and roti prathas. All freshly cooked. I am afraid we weren't impressed with any of the curries served on the set menu. I read the reviews on here and my take on the curries were uninspiring and lacking vibrancy. I simply could not find a single dish that was rich in flavour and spices and I am not talking spicy as in heat. Perhaps it is for more western tastes during the 60s but I am pretty sure there are other Indian restaurants around that can easily surpass the dishes we got today. They seemed well cooked but struggle to make our taste buds come alive."
"Authentic Indian! although the service was slow it was worth the wait. Restaurant on second floor with seperate toilets and bar lounge on first floor. 2nd visit 060721. At 2212hr given the bill without asking 1. If I would like another drink. 2. If I would like a dessert. 3. If I would like tea or coffee."
