Reviews
Food was amazing, everything we tried was very delicious, especially Welsh lamb and butter chicken. Our waiter Shiv was very friendly and showed excellent service. It was also our anniversary and we received a complementary dessert with “Happy anniversary!” decoration which was very thoughtful. 10/10
We went for our anniversary meal today. From the moment we arrived till we left, the service was exceptional. The staff were so receptive and attentive. The food was exquisite, particularly the chicken momo starter, perfect for the autumnal days. Desserts were presented beautifully. The decor, ambience and vibe of the restaurant was classy. Would definitely love to go again.
The food was delicious and homely, with a good balance of flavours. We can't eat very spicy food and the dishes we ordered and were told as "median spicy" were perfectly fine. Cocktails were somewhat a bit underwhelming. Service felt standard, and when we were leaving we said thanks to several staff we walked past but were ignored (they seemed to be busy with things). The interior was quite old-school. One star off as we expected a bit more from a one-star restaurant in terms of an all-around experience.
WOW WOW amazing! Literally one of the best meals I have had. The food is sublime. The chicken momo starter in chestnut soup is like nothing I have every had - spicy tingle on the lips, sweet soft chestnuts, umami soup, delicious spiced chicken - unbelievable. Murg makhani main was superb - along with garlic naan, tikka aubergine, dal - layers and layers of flavour. Dessert absolutely delicious too - chai brulee. Followed by petit fours! Staff were excellent - friendly, funny, efficient. And 3 courses for £49 at lunch is superb pricing for a Michelin* restaurant in central London! Will be back!
We had the most incredible experience here! We opted for the tasting menu and were blown away. Not only was each course unique, but also incredibly delicious in its own way. By the end we were so full, which is not always the case with tasting menus. The service was also impeccable. From the moment we walked into the door to the moment we left, every person we encountered from the staff was helpful and friendly. Special shout out to Shiv who vividly explained each course and provided the utmost professionalism in his service. Thank you, Shiv, for a truly great evening!
