Start with a Red Chilli Apple Mojito : house matured Kashmiri Red Chilli , lemon grass & spices infused white rum , muddled with fresh mint , lime & brown cane sugar . Topped with pure cloudy apple juice .

Anomalous London

Wow! Fabulous delicious awesome Indian cuisine ! So quirky & flavoursome. Try anything on the menu! Prepared to be blown away with the explosion of flavours! My fav Choriso Misto & Duck Sausage !

Jetset Bart

Generous meat and vegetarian tikka platters, authentic Parsee dhaansaak and Goan-inspired seafood dishes are among the tempting cornerstones of a menu whose specials change regularly with the seasons.

Very colorful restaurant with good service , very friendly people. Unlike to any other authentic Indian restaurants , this one has fusion food (and a jazz in the background) but still very very good.

Christine Desilles

Excellent service good Advice From waiter . Green curry salmon very good. But best is the thali , loads little bowls of everything.

Lorna

Excellent service , prawn curry really tasty, thali is an excellent selection.

Chris Hackworth

Incredibly tasty food, with a great mix of flavours. The prawn patia and the hare special were really good.

Lorna

Thali offers a great selection. The naan is just right. Goan prawn curry was excellent.

Phil Clamp

Good curry , good service . Menu is definitely interesting, with descriptive prose for each dish. Expensive, but had a good night.

Harry van den Bergh

Lovely restaurant of a famous TV chef . Fabulous food. This is going to be one of my return-often places.

Guy Corbet

Wonderful old building . You have to try the beetroot samosa and ostrich (separate dishes)

Szymon Kaczmarczyk

Very hard to find anything better. Quite authentic . Book ahead for lunchtime and evenings as they get packed.

Bijan Young

Street food lumped upon a very bright and busy room. Samosas , bhel , pakora , kebabs . All good

Harmz Singh

This place is exceptional. Do not be mistaken for a typical Indian restaurant as this couldn't be further from the truth. Its hard to recommend a specific dish as they all have their own merits.

Reem ????????????????????????????????????????

Gregory Behin

Fine Indian restaurant , with authentic and not so classical dishes. A great discovery !

Nice food, interesting ambience

Atheer Suliman

If you can't handle spicy food like me, then stick to the chicken takka.

Marcos Hernandez

Expensive average Indian food . The waiter got annoyed because we ordered only starters, quite a few of them. Portions are small and expensive . Get your money and go to dishoom, thank me later

David Morton

Not your average curry house. Well worth a visit! Excellent service too,
