Authentic Indian food , enough tasty vegetarian options to keep coming back for. The jackfruit biryani is to die for. Try the rose & cardamom lassi , the rose flavour is perfectly balanced.

Dishoom is always great. The branch in Shoreditch is lovely & the service is great. Get the egg naan rolls , the chocolate chai , and the akuri (كأنها شكشوكة). YUM.

Dishoom feels like a walk-in sepia photograph . It also serves terrific food, like a delicately flavored berry pulao, the tart Parsi-style biryani . More of London’s best food: http://tandl.me/XAVcNk

Awesome atmosphere, food was delicious, highly recommend the Chicken Ruby . Be ready to wait for a table up to 30min at the bar . Arrive before 6pm!Otherwise you will queue up to an hour on the street.

Kathrine

Oh my goodness - everything was amazing! Seriously, one of the best meals I've ever had. We enjoyed the fried okra , chicken tikka masala , black dhal, and ruby chicken . Would recommend all!

Noah Weiss

Feels like a breakfast oasis on the veranda with delicious and great value treats: bacon & egg naan roll and kejriwal (chili cheese toast ) plus grilled tomatoes for the win. Plus bottomless chai .

Daniella

Paneer tikka , shrimp masala , chocolate pudding and bottomless chai tea ! Best Indian I've had. The portions are a good size as well so you can get a bunch to share.

Breakfast.The Indian version of full English breakfast is great, love the combination of coriander with scramble eggs . Bacon and egg nan rool is delicious. Chocolates chai is nice but too small.

Jonathan Payne

Great modern twist on Indian food . I loved the Lamb Raan which was acidic from marinade , tender and decadent, my fave dish. the fam loved Mango Lassi , Ghati masala and gunpowder potatoes !

Andra Georgescu

Suuch good food! The veggie options are absolutely fabulous! Curries are a must, with garlic naan or rice , but lots of other options too! Nice terrace and inside it is really cute and welcoming too.

Bitches Who Brunch

Dishoom is an expansive Bombay cafe located in trendy Shoreditch. Its impeccable decor and cool vibe reminded me of a Stephen Starr restaurant . It’s perfect for group dinners over bottles of red wine . Read more

This place is amazing! Great food with the right amount of spice. Als great atmosphere and location, it has some of that run down ambience. Only flickering light was missing ???? Highly recommended ????????

Tiffany Z

Amazing place! Food is fabulous, an Indian style brunch , great way to spend a Sunday morning! Service & staff impeccable, fast, friendly ! Definitely recommend the house masala chai tea and rose lassi !

Anna Tjernström

Great place if you’re a vegetarian or vegan . They’ll have a special menu for you. I’m usually not big on Indian food but I was pleasantly suprised!

Maya Abdul-Latif

Probably the best Indian restaurant in London, it just never disappoints me. Everything on the menu is exquisite. Always go for okra fries , black daal , chicken byriani, garlic naan ....

Chandra Ghosal

Everything. Masala chai warms your heart. Bacon naan with a perfectly runny egg and streaky bacon just delicious. Every dish has perfectly balanced flavors. Would go back again and again.

Ivana Kurtović

Best indian restaurant ever been to! It’s a combo of iranian- indian cuisine from the streets of Bombay. You can wait at the bar and snack while you wait for the table.

Abeer S

I was there at Sat night, we waited for almost two hours in the queue. Well I'm not that much with Indian cuisine BUT it was really delicious. Dishoom now one of my favorite restaurant at London.

John Steidle

Ridiculously good Indian food and great cocktails . Order the chicken ruby , black dahl , and anything with lamb . Add a house ipa plus some naan , and you’ll have a great time.

Noah Weiss

The hype is warranted! Delicious, upscale takes on traditional Indian, with cool vibes and free chai while you wait. Lamb chops and Ruby chicken fantastic. Cool cocktails , too. Arrive early!

Nidhi Kay

Best indian food i ever had and i’m indian, recommend lamb samosa , black daal , chicken ruby over roomali roti , old fashioned and chai bourbon drinks were great too

Clara Eloy

Amazing like usual. Tried the breakfast menu for the first time and everything was delicious. Try the buttery buns to dip in the chai !

Fabienne

Best experience at an Indian restaurant so far! Although we had to queue, it was worth the wait! Frindly, welcoming staff , trendy & authentic atmosphere! And excellent food!

Katya E

The interior, the atmosphere, the whole experience takes you away from rainy London to some exotic holiday destination! Yummy food, amazing Bloody Mary's , great friendly staff ! ????????

Francesca Krihely

Everything about this place is spot on. The decor is immaculate. The daal is out of this world. They also make a special IPA that is just hoppy enough for spicy curry ! This place is a total winner!

Cole Kennedy

Welp, it’s absolutely as good as they said. And the atmosphere is on point. The wait won’t seem too long, especially once you have a drink. Now when can we bring Dishoom to NYC?

Whimsical Voyages

I can leave tips all day long and that won't be enough. My absolutely fave for Indian. An early morning hot chai reminds me of winter mornings in Delhi. Dishoom you beauty!

Christine Røde

They don't deliver , but you can order takeaway up 'till 6pm! Great way to skip the queue and still enjoy the best meal.

Linn Fritz

One of my favorite restaurants in London. The atmosphere, the food, the drinks and especially their house granola is amazing! Super busy all the time though, so be early.

Utku Can

No doubt, some of the best modern Indian food in London, though be prepared to queue for more than an hour on a Friday or Saturday evening. Try early week or a late supper; they're open till midnight!

Daisy Zook

Really good food! We had the house black dhal, chicken ruby , lamb biryani and a garden vegetable dish . The condiments were also great especially the mint chutney .

Emily-jane

Delicious Bombay street food , black dhal, paneer tikka , chicken ruby , pau bhaji the roti and rice were perfect too! Nice own brewed IPA . Be prepared to queue if you have no booking , worth the wait!

Nicole Dixon

I want to eat those pau buns every breakfast time! Lovely staff and great food, just need to work my way around the menu now. Slight wait due to busy brunch but worth it.

Nazanin Vahedy

Like the atmosphere. Amazing drinks. You will enjoy if you go with the right combination. Since Indian food has strong taste & good amount of herbs best to order some light and cold sides as well .

Anne H

The chocolate mousse is probably one of the best things I've ever eaten; it's spicy and salty. It is served with a creamy yoghurt with raspberries and blackberries. Highly recommend.

Eveline N

Indian street food in a Bombay Cafe style setting. This location has best ambiance and staff , food amazing price value. Have been back many times. Be prepared to queue for 45 min at least - worth it!

Red W.

Within seconds of eating the ruby chicken , I confirmed the hour wait was worth it! I’ve never had chicken that melts in your mouth before. Much better than the lamb and prawn dishes. Go for chicken !

Sarah J

In short :perfect experience. Delicious food, definitely try the lambi boti kebab together with kachumber, daal and raita on the side.great atmosphere, not too loud .

Ben K.

It's hard to believe this too trendy looking spot has good food, but my god it's pretty brilliant. Try the lamb samosas , spicy lamb chops , chicken ruby , and raita .

Bill Peeler

This place is utterly amazing. The place was super cool and the food was absolutely delicious. Grab a beer or one of their clever cocktails as well - you'll definitely want to go back!

Murat Zengin

I manage to have lunch at the last day of vacation at shoreditch. Perfect Indian food . The burger was amazing, chicken tikka was delicious. Only problem is the food is so good that you eat yo much.

Fabian Martin

The best Indian restaurant I’ve ever been to (and came back to about 15 times so far). Absolutely need to get the chicken ruby and the lamb chops !!!

Hung Lee

Much better than the one in Covent Garden . Great decor, awesome staff , and a tiny bar that makes intimacy a pragmatic concern. Also, free refills on the chai - whats not to like? Ideal for 1-2-1

Emily Birstonas

First Indian restaurant meal I've really enjoyed in London, amazing Bhang Lassi and stock up on cheese naan . Great recommendations from staff , Soho location cosy and not too loud - must go again soon!

Monica Desai

Hype is warranted - loved the keema pao, the ruby chicken with roomali and the lamb chops ! Also - chai !

Jessica Young

Brunch - get sausage and bacon naans ! Cheap too. Chai is delist. Dinner sitting - get the table opposite the kitchen so you can watch the naans made & flung around in front of you, a show in itself ????

Adam F

The crazy part about this place is that there are too many things on the menu I wanted to try. Make sure to come as a big group so you can try everything. Lamb leg & Biriani are a must.

Catherine Cheong

Ruby chicken was one of the best curries I've eaten (and I grew up eating curry in Southeast Asia ). Tikka chicken was also very tasty and spicy .

Melson

It's true, this is the best place to enjoy indian foods in a lovely environment. Tested and approved for diner , lunch and breakfast . Great deal.

Ain Tohvri

Best Indian I’ve been to in London, well worth the relatively long wait . Black Dal was delish. Mango Lassi could be better, maybe a bit too watery and lacks taste, but that’s really a minor thing.
