Top Places and Services in Tooting

Loved this place in Tooting! I haven’t tried food like it before so was glad to try something different. I liked how the staff helped you choose and explained each dish as this was helpful
Would definitely go back, especially to try their vegan options!

The food here is truly amazing and high-quality. The fritters and fries stood out as exceptionally unique compared to other South Asian restaurants in Tooting. While the portion sizes may be slightly smaller for the price, the taste more than makes up for it. I would definitely return again!

Lovely restaurant with incredible food and customer service! Our waiter was kind enough to recommend many dishes, explaining each of their dishes and the culture behind it to us. We were also given a free starter and a free tea with our meal which was so kind and unexpected! I would 100% recommend this place to anyone and booking with first table as it gets you 50% off! There was also lots of vegetarian and vegan options.

Where do I start. This is the best authentic Bangladeshi restaurant I have ever visited.

I was recommended by my brother and visiting my hometown Tooting having moved away many years ago. In my absence Tooting has become a culinary hotspot with an explosion of choices across the high street and surrounding areas. Therefore to standout in current competition takes some doing.

Step forward Dhoompan. A subtle look from outdoors and minimalistic design, as I stepped in immediately I was overwhelmed. Being a British Bangladeshi and seeing the intricate little accessories from our culture, the brilliant interior design it sets the tone of a very modern culturally rich setting.

I was with my family, wife, mum, kids and brother so it was already a special day. All of the food was recommended by Abu. Every starter was cooked brilliantly, crisp, perfect blend of taste from the fried crispy aubergine, the smoked chicken wings, wheat shell egg chickpea and coriander mixed streetfood, Gunpowder chicken and to finish of the starters some sweet fried crackers - we got off to a blinding start.

I felt at home, each dish was deliciously enjoyed by everyone. The main dish took me right home a whole cooked roast chicken with masala marinated all over the chicken and a nice big plate of pilau (we Bengali’s love our rice). Big enough to serve the 6 of us.

Abu continued to bring out more dishes, including one he was trialling Daal Bora, again perfectly made, not to heavy, taste blended just right. Also he brought out a plate of Beef Brisket Wraps is out this world in a thick naan, with pulled succulent beef and accompanying pickles, slaw and chillies, felt like eating a much more filling taco. We also had a plate of accompanying pickles, salad and chillies which was perfect. Finally not to be forgotten the freshly squeezed Shokto Bhokto drinks and the traditional Aamm Bhaat (Mango, Cream and Rice) was the icing on the cake and just tasted amazing.

Notable mentions you can play Carrom Board as well! Also the Bangla Tea is amazing for someone like me who doesn’t usually drink Tea.

So my review all around 5/5 one of the best experiences, insight into our culture through British born Bengali eyes, having dishes explained to my children and also making me feel right at home.

Anyone looking for authentic quality tasting food and something different in the minefield of Tooting.

This is your place.

Brilliant food and service was great. They make food per order so it does take a bit of time to serve but it is worth the wait. Price is good too. Staff did say they could cater for intolerances so will do so next time too. Will definitely come back.
