Sri Gupta

Their Michelin star is well deserved. Standouts include the black cod (delicate and soft as butter), and curried lamb . But the best dish by far was the lobster .

David Smith

Tell your server what you like / don’t like and they’ll bring you something amazing. Even if you don’t do the full tasting menu , you can try a few things. The “chicken roast ” is amazing.

Andy Thornton

Fantastic Indian cuisine unlike any other in a calm , relaxed environment . Recommend at least 3 starters and 2 mains, plus sides, for a meze-style experience. Worth every penny without a doubt.

Herry Lawford

Superb Kerala cooking; have the mini marsala dosa and some Quilon fish curry accompanied by rassum and mango lassi

Nawaf S

Butter chicken , lamb biryani are perfect, shrimp is ok, their tomato/lentil soup is very nice too

Sonia Rai

Favorite Indian restaurant by a mile and a half! Tempered prawns , mangalorean chicken curry and mango curry cooked to perfection. Love love and love.

BarChick

They have over 50 types of whisky , 20 types of beer , and a massive wine list . We loved the Raspberry Martini and their Qojito was so good, you'll want more than one. Read more

The biryani is good, but the price on foursquare should be adjusted to the expensive side

Excellent lamb shank

Fred du Plessis

One of London’s outstanding Indian restaurants !

Mela Mel

I'd have expected more from a Michelin star . The little bowls for papadum sauces were dirty . And the menu was frayed. The food was average, and my stomach got upset soon after. Won't go back.

Laurent Duffault

Very high level south indian cuisine at very affordable prices . The lunch set menu is an incredible deal.

Fantastic Indian restaurant - a member favorite when staying at 51 Buckingham Gate

Chris R (thechristophe)

Not bad, but I left feeling it was just OK. Michelin quality, i.e. ambience is great, service is great but food is not bold enough.

Alex Butler

Best Indian in London. Try the black cod and Seabass together

Stephan Plomp

Have a bottle of Ceilidh - very nice Scottish beer ( at an Indian!?)
