1947 Restaurant & Bar in Tower Hamlets

Pregunté por korma de pollo - no era korma en absoluto. Sólo un pollo al curry. Era de color rojo con maíz dulce y cosas verdes... Ahora, me encanta el pollo korma y eso no fue todo. Me fui con una bolsa de perro y se la di al vagabundo al final de la calle. Muy pobre y caro también. 25 libras por arroz al curry y un refresco. Nunca volvería.

Op zich een restaurant dat er leuk uitziet, maar verder geen bijzonderheid. Je wordt van achter de bar welkom geheten. En er wordt bij je bestelling een voorgerecht voorgesteld wat leek op een klein hapje als entree. Het was het allemaal net niet. De dame die gastvrouw was is aardig maar ook erg aanwezig. De pizza was goed. Met verse groente.

La comida era muy cara y era solo pk degustación. Fue nuestra comida más cara y menos satisfactoria en nuestra estancia de 1 semana en Londres.

Lovely little find. Hubby is a veggie so we went here. Although im a meat eater, i thouroughly enjoyed it. I had the butter chicken and hubby had the tikka masala. Priced ok for London prices although we did ask for a glass of tap water, as we had our drinks, but were given bottles for £3 each. The only reason im not giving 5 star is that we felt a bit hassled constantly asking us if we wanted starters as well as popadoms, did we want bread or extra rice...if we did we would of ordered it. I dont enjoy being over sold, however the food was lovely and staff were nice

Appare come un locale abbastanza accogliente, un po’ “trattoria” all’italiana; menù molto vario, ma… “incomprensibile” ai più; cameriere molto disponibile e simpatico. Nell’ignoranza più totale dei piatti, senza spiegazione alcuna, siamo andati diretti sul TIKKA MASALA e PANEER BUTTER MASALA CON RISO BASMATI accompagnato. Tutto gustoso, per chi ama, come noi, questo gusti della cucina orientale. Costi decisamente economici, a fronte di una buona qualità.

Service was excellent. Ambient atmosphere and busy for a cold January Tuesday evening. The food was exceptional tasty - both starters and main course - and well presented. Advice given to suit our tastes. They couldn’t do enough for us. Lovely place. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and will visit again.

I was looking forward to trying out a local vegetarian restaurant. The first course Kachori chaat was good. The main course Dal Tadka was awful..too spicy, and too piping hot. I wish I had just sent the dish back or at least asked to add yoghurt to the dish. Needless to say it was unfinished. Pricing - way overpriced - at £40 quid a head ( not the 10-25 on tripadvisor ( only 2 alcoholic drinks).. I was thinking before the meal that this restaurant / cafe would make a good lunch hangout but after the meal reversed this thought. Plusher venues have than this have better prices, even in the City/central London.

In London one of the most popular cuisines is Indian cuisine, and under the advice of two of my friends who have spent part of their lives in London, we tried Indian food. Nice restaurant, spicy and tasty food for a normal price. Friendly staff and standard service.

Frankly, we expected more and were disappointed. It looks very fancy on social media but it’s not all that. They seated us so close to the kitchen; it was one of the hottest days in England ( 24th July). Probably not given a nice table as we have gift certificates to dine for 4x people. We plan to upgrade but were not impressed as soon as they sat us near the kitchen area (open kitchen). The starter was good. The chicken curry was average and was presented poorly (curry & rice on one plate). I had tasted better. It feels constantly rushed as they want to take the orders straightaway and serve the food too quickly. We don’t have time to rest after the main course and to catch up. Our local Indian that costs half the price has better food. I will not recommend this place or return here.

This cozy and unpretentious resturant was right next to our hotel. After 13 hours of traveling through 5 countries, you don't really care, as long as the food is reasonable and the beer cold. But... what a wonderful experience. The hostess was so friendly and the food came quickly. It was delicious, clearly made with good ingredients from scratch. Finely tuned spicing that could certainly hold attention. The starter was popodums with fine dips, fried mushrooms in a strong and sweet sauce and the main courses vegetarian variations on butter/masala. Jerra rice and Polau rice and fresh Naan - with and without garlic. Cobra beer - and Mango lassi for junior. Friendly and attentive service. £118 for all the glory is a very reasonable price too. We would definitely recommend this place if you love vegetarian Indian cuisine.

I honestly loved the food and the staff were all so lovely and welcoming the only thing I would say is that there menu needs abit more there were only a few choices however the food was amazing would definitely recommend to everyone one Sam was a really nice waiter helped us with almost everything.

I love the food and the Restaurant was fantastic the best one I have went to in London.Probably the best Indian food in an Indian restaurant I ever had. The Bindi Bhaji was awesome. my stomach was so happy after the meal.

Delicious vegetarian Indian cuisine. I can especially recommend the Kadju curry. It doesn’t lure you in from the street but worth a visit. Offering pizza and Italian alongside is a bit disconcerting but it looks good (I haven’t tried it).

Had a wonderful time here, yummy food and super friendly staff super accommodating. Very good value. Thank you for the eve!

We were staying next door at the Travelodge and we came across this wondeful little restaurant. Having Indian and Italian food on the menu together worked so well! Our food was fresh and delicious and the service was great.

I’m not vegetarian so you could say that I wandered in by mistake. Quiet on Tuesday, very simple, non pretentious, welcoming and friendly. I had the Paneer tikka which was excellent. Whether a business traveler looking to break the monotony of hotel stays or on a night out with friends I would recommend this restaurant. Don’t be looking for chicken or lamb.. this is a vegetarian restaurant.

Thjis restaurant has an extensive menu including "Indian" pizzas and "Pasta". Servings of the more traditional dishes are on the small side and relatively overpriced. For example a masala dosa comes as a starter. The service was very slow and the restaurant appeared to be understaffed. Always good (for me) to find pure vegetarian food but this place was a disappointment.

A friendly Indian vegetarian restaurant. The food is fresh and interesting. I don’t normally go vegetarian but the food is definitely worth a try. The owner is very knowledgeable and helped us select a number of tasty dishes. Would definitely recommend a visit. Price wise was reasonable.

Overpriced, slow service, undercooked pizzas. Really disappointing. We had to request plates and cutlery after starters were delivered. Not unfriendly but just unorganised.

Fantastic authentic vegetarian food unlike the several restaurants in London which profess to offer Indian food but are operated by chefs and owners who hail from a neighboring country in the sub-continent and therefore do not offer Indian food in its authentic form . The menu was extensive and diverse. We tried their chats, naan and vegetarian curries which were all superbly delicious. They even offer Falooda for desert, which is how we ended our dinner. The restaurant is operated by the owners (Haresh and Payal) and the care factor to food quality and customer service is very evident. This is my second visit to this restaurant and will look to be here each time I visit London.

Excellent Indian vegan and vegetarian good and outstanding service. Highly recommend. They even serve good pasta and pizza if you for instance bring kids that are not yet into Indian food.

Vegan comfort food. Prepared with care and true to the original. We tried a palette of different dishes recommended by the owner and everything was delicious. The service was exemplary, the ingredients sublime. Especially the garlic naan - don’t miss out on this side dish....

I’m a regular customer at this place for about 6 months and overall i have found the service to be excellent, food quality to be really good and in terms of taste, it is authentic Indian. Food: Variety: This is a vegetarian and vegan restaurant...

What a find! From the moment we sat down we were very well looked after by Haresh and his wife (?). Recommendations were made on starters namely Punjabi Samosa Chat, Veg. Crispy and Palak Paneer Dosa. All excellent. Whilst we were enjoying these mains were...

Overall comments: Top notch service from the lady who treated us like guests at her own house however food quality and prices make this place not worth it. There are probably many better group places to book for in the area which are better. Has...

Sadly, the food was average and expensive for what it was. Service was mediocre and my partner was asked to finish his drink, so that the waitress could clear our glasses (in a relatively empty restaurant). I’ve never written a bad trip advisor review before,...

Excellent choice for vegans/vegetarians, a full choice menu. We had the Punjabi chole curry and red sauce pasta. This was the most delicious meal we have both had for a while and are so glad we visited. The service was excellent and we had a...

Probably the best Indian food in an Indian restaurant we ever had. The Bindi Bhaji was awesome. Our stomachs were so happy after the meal. The staff were so busy but always had time to talk to you. Loved the place. Can’t wait to go...

I will break my review into five sections; Expectations, Setting, Service, Food and Price. One of the most important categories to note here is "expectations" as I will try to review all other categories against this fairly against it (that is to say, I will...

Seems to have been some poor reviews but on my visit all was top quality. I’m no vegetarian so know the food needs to be well spiced and so this was. Excellent samosas and a fine “robust” lentil main dish with a decent plain naan...

Food was amazing. The starters and main course were so flavoursome. The Kaju Curry 👌 The owner was so polite and helpful. Will visit again for sure

Ordered the following. one veg manchurian (dry and bland on the manchurian), paneer tikka masala (paneer under cooked), garlic and butter naan (no sign of butter on butter naan. Paid money in the order for water, but was never delivered. Who puts nuts in Mango...

Really tasty food and a huge choice. Friendly staff and a great ambience. Will return when next in London

Supreme Vegan Indian restaurant in Aldgate London, impressed us Northerners with friendly service and delicious food. Highly recommended

Lovely little Indian restaurant that is all vegetarian with plenty of great vegan options. The menu is a little confusing to be honest with vegetarian and vegan options not necessarily easy to interpret but luckily the waiter was on the ball and explained everything perfectly...

One of the worst experiences i’ve had at a restaurant. The mains were awful, not authentic butter chicken. Ordered rotis, and they gave naans instead. Drinks arrived after 20 minutes of reminding the staff. Certain dishes didn’t arrive. Raita was sweet and very runny, tasted...

Visited the place on 4th February. We ordered for some small plate and the Masala Dosa great authentic flavour reminds me of Indian. Will definitely visit this place next time we come to London.

Beautiful atmosphere, lovely friendly service and the food divine.... The pizza simply melted in the mouth, I highly recommend a visit, you won't be sorry. ** be aware they may offer you a dip with your pizza, we accepted but they neglected to tell us...

onion bhajis were good - everything else was shocking - pizzas were burnt - pasta in what i’m 99.9% sure was folio with a bit of curry powder thrown in - not just vegan - veggie friendly - it is just vegan - veggie -...

Booked a 5:30 meal for me and my partner for her 21st. The staff were very friendly. One man looked after us and was very attentive with both our food and our drinks. Even informed us about how to go about things with our dietary...

Having visited 1947 back in September with my partner I went again with friends in December. Food was absolutely amazing and the service we receive at the restaurant was excellent. The reason as to why I have rated this restaurant 'Average' is having spent approx....

Food overall was decent taste wise but majority of the dishes were too spicy. We asked for no spice for all dishes as some family members cannot have it and the dishes were not even attempted to be made with mild spice, it's as if...

We had a fabulous meal here. We enjoyed a mix of the vegetarian and vegan Indian courses. There’s also pasta & pizza options. The service was fantastic and we really enjoyed the food. Will definitely visit again.

Let down by quite a few things. Service was very poor, they were a nice person but felt fairly ignored and there is a bit of a weird ordering set up in that the main order is taken after starters. Drinks also were super slow....

Booked this not realising it was vegetarian Shouldn't have worried Fantastic food and restaurant Great host and staff

Popped in on a night out. We had the pizza and it was the best we’ve had in a long time! Staff (assuming they were the owners) were lovely also. Would recommend and head back to try the Indian food if back in the area.

Best Indian food I've had in England. Was sharing five curries with friends and they were all to die for. The staff were so nice and lovely, and would always make sure you were enjoying yourselves. You will not be disappointed when you go here.

The food was just too good that we have found ourselves considering to pay rent and remain here for ever

The food was gorgeous full of vegetarian options and the staff are so friendly and happy a wonderful experience will definitely be returning

Excellent range of veggie curries and friendly staff. Vegan 'chicken' was amazing. Authentic Indian home cooking, according to an Indian friend who was with us.

Amazing restaurant. Food and service excellent. Very accommodating answered all questions perfectly around vegan food Will be back soon

Came with three friends, great menu choice, tasty food and welcoming staff. Definitely recommend and will visit again

First time visited with a vegetarian colleague and so good I ventured the second time alone. The best kept secret, looking forward to bringing friends to experience the food when socialising in london. I do not feel meat deprived, fantastic food and service

I don't eat a lot of vegetarian but went with my sister and niece (who are) and they thought it was excellent as I did. Highly recommended and very unusual. Area has really improved since they closed it to traffic, nice atmosphere.

Delicious food with fabulous friendly hosts in a lovely atmosphere. The food was so tasty and fresh. We would definitely return.

Honestly so impressed with the service and gorgeous vegan food, so many options, love it! Must visit! Mango chutney has this beautiful hint of spice oooooof love it! ❤️❤️❤️

My husband and I visited this restaurant today. We don't normally leave reviews but this restaurant was outstanding. The food was full of flavour. The staff were welcoming and friendly. A beautiful family restaurant. Has a family atmosphere from the owners to the servers. We...

The atmosphere was cosy and the decor was a bit of a hit and miss. The customer service was very friendly considering we ordered as the restaurant was closing. The food is a bit pricy with three pizzas and two sides totaling £55. The oven...

Visited 1947 for dinner with a friend who is vegetarian, to say we were spoilt for choice is an understatement! It took us ages to choose what to eat, when it came it was lovely, cooked to the ‘heat’ we requested. Will definitely go again...

The place is delicious, a good taste of Indian food!!! The staff is very nice and dedicated. I will go again!!! Is high recommended!!!!

Went recently and was very impressed with the food and service at this restaurant. Everything we ordered was excellently delivered, we are Indian family so know the items on the menu from many other restaurants, but 1947 excelled at all the dishes to be just...

Whenever I come to London, going to an Indian restaurant is default. 1947 was suggested to me by the front desk at the hotel. I went there expecting the correct Lamb with Curry. I was treated to the best Vegetarian meal I ever had. And...

We visited this restaurant when we were staying a hotel nearby. The man and woman who served us were very nice and helpful with providing us with an excellent dining experience. We didn't eat the pizza, but we each had some of the garlic naan...

One of the best Indian meals I have ever had, vegetarian food done superbly and so well I didn’t miss the lamb or chicken I would normally have ordered. Great service and a taste journey supreme. I will definitely be back and would recommend to...

Very flavoursome Indian starters and pizza highly recommended even if your not a vegetarian like us, very good price and service

I was lucky to come across this amazing restaurant next door to my hotel. First time away on my own and Payal made me feel so welcome and put me at ease. The menu choice is fantastic especially if you like Indian and Pizza! Why...

Food: interesting recipes, non-standard, a massive contrast to the standard Brick Lane fare. Not oily. Light and nuanced. Staff hugely attentive and friendly. Excellent value for money.

The combination of pizza and indian vegetarian may seem odd but it shouldn't put you off. This restaurant is off the beaten path but just a 5mns walk from Liverpool Street and well worth of visit. The food is very tasty and fresh, well prepared...

Super vegan/vegetarian restaurant. Great service and very knowledgeable about the dishes served. At 1947 you get dishes not served in the run of the mill Indian restaurants. Will definitely be back. This restaurant is so worth visiting.

Great pizza! Awesome service, very nice. We got at the restaurant at late hours but we were very welcome to try their awesome pizzas !!! :)

Settled down to a quiet meal just before Christmas 2019. Not being a great lover of Indian food we wanted to eat here because it is just veggie and vegan. The food was such a delight, very different to what I have experienced in this...

Incredible food, fantastic service and very reasonably priced! Shame we don’t live closer as this would be our first choice for quality vegetarian grub! My husband has only very recently taken meat out of his diet, and as a vegetarian of 15 plus years, it’s...

Excellent paneer and dal makhani. Melt in the mouth naans. Will recommend. The host was very polite and friendly.

Don’t be put off by vegetarian or Indian it is so so good try the special - and so fresh - great price !

I've been working and staying in the City of London for 1yr+ now. I've tended to struggle when looking for an alternative from my usual meat based meals, that is until 1947 opened. 1947 is a vegetarian Indian restaurant, combined with the most tastiest pizzas...

Visited Restaurant Recently, Good restaurant on Indian Theme, Great Taste food was good, Specially pizza. Must visit

Very good, good food, ambience, staff, good taste, and beautiful location. We enjoyed the hospitality.
