Aladin Brick Lane in Tower Hamlets

this is a complete catfish! - their reviews are terrible and they have very poor service. If you want tomatoes sauce with come chili powder - go there!

Been coming here since 2016! They have never let me down! The food is always great.. and the staffs are always so friendly! Will be back in January next year. See you soon!

Very average, tourist trap with rubbery cheap chicken. Massively overpriced for sub standard very bland food. Never again, avoid at all costs.

Ambiance sympa et bonne cuisine indienne. Mon poulet tikka masala était délicieux. Merci à Kawsar pour son service On reviendra

Worst curry I have ever had - Tandoori Mixed Grill and naan were lukewarm at best. When I mentioned this it was taken away and reheated. Quality of food in the dish was poor - chewy, overdone meat. To be fair to the restaurant they took this off the bill but I would not return. Business is based on churning out mediocre food based on quantity rather than quality.

Jack was great as well the food!

Delicious Indian food, served by polite staff. Possibly the best Indian I have ever had. I would definitely recommend it!

Typisch eingerichteter Inder. Gemütlich. Habe online reserviert. Es wurden 20% Rabatt versprochen, die man aber nicht bekommen hat. Sehr aufmerksame Bedienung. Das Lamb Blast war angebrannt und man hatte versucht es irgendwie zu kaschieren. Rausgeschmeckt hat man es trotzdem. Der Rest, den wir bestellt haben war Mittelklasse. Bei den Saucen zum Nan war eine wirklich gut, die anderen 2 OK und als 4 Belag gab es einfach gehackte Zwiebeln. Würde ich nicht mehr hingehen.

Very average - food tasted pretty good but took ages to arrive and was tepid at best when we received it - like it had been made a kitchen a long way from the table) - wouldn’t revisit

Such a great evening! Swift and friendly service. Monsur looked after us so well! Thank you!

The curry I had was fairly tasteless. The sauce was thin and lacking in any onion base, normally a staple of a good restaurant curry. I cook better myself and the currys in Southall and Hounslow are far superior in the taste: range of flavour, etc. I live in Birmingham and have grown up on Baltis. This “Balti” bore no relationship to any balti I’ve ever eaten and would have been sent back in Birmingham, the home of the Balti. The nan bread was like a brick. Not sure how they managed to ruin that - overcooking and inadequate rising of the dough?? I won’t be returning. I guess the tourists might like the mild flavour, but it wasn’t good for anyone with any experience of Indian food.

In an area spoilt for choice, we were very glad we chose Aladin in Brick Lane. I came here wih my wife and decided to leave the kids at home to celebrate our anniversary. We rarely get to eat Indian cuisine because our kids don't really eat it. But we enjoyed our dishes very much and the service was there to match it. The atmosphere was very chill and the waiters were friendly. We asked the waiter for recommendations and we had the lamb special and a chicken dish. We left very happy and with a full belly to go thrifting around the area!

what a pathetic place, chatgpt said it sells rolling papers, but when i checked out reviews it said this is a scam place

Monsur was our server. He was very nice and friendly

The chicken was not cooked properly, it caused serious problems. They literally just cooked it in Tandoori sauce there was no marination to the chicken.

Regrettably, Nazrul Brick Lane fell short of expectations. The food was bland, lacking any semblance of the advertised flavors. Service was disappointingly slow, with staff appearing indifferent to our presence. The ambiance was underwhelming, more reminiscent of a neglected cafeteria than a bustling restaurant. The glowing reviews are nothing but smoke and mirrors, masking the reality of this establishment's shortcomings. Save your taste buds and your wallet; Nazrul Brick Lane doesn't live up to the hype. Seek out authentic flavors and attentive service elsewhere

The food was utterly tasteless, resembling something that had been microwaved rather than freshly prepared. Service was abysmal, with staff displaying a remarkable lack of interest in customer satisfaction. The atmosphere was dismal, akin to dining in a poorly lit storage room. It's abundantly clear that the positive reviews are as authentic as a three-dollar bill. Don't be fooled by the deceptive ratings; this place is a culinary catastrophe waiting to happen. Save yourself the agony and opt for a more genuine dining experience elsewhere

Scammers just don't visit this area restaurants.

Ask me to come downstairs because he was on a bike, didn’t wait for me to come downstairs that he gave the food to kids that where playing next to him

This has been my place for so long now and it always will be, absolutely incredible fresh food and really lovely people aswell. You will not be disappointed ordering from here 10/10 x

Best Biryani I had followed my notes for extra naga and extra tikka pieces

Food very disappoining. Ordered the half chicken tandoori but received two legs. Biryana was very average. Tried for the first time, will not order again

I went here with a mate with lunchtime. Curiously, a group of Americans came in with a tour guide, barely ate what they were given and quickly left. Not surprising, one of the things Yanks don't appreciate - or can do - is a decent curry. My mate and I, however, are seasoned curry eaters and enjoyed what we ate. I had a very good lamb jafrazi and sag allow. The portion was not massive but it was flavoursome. My mate had a dansak, which he enjoyed. Service was prompt. You take your own booze in. It was not cheap. No doubt they fiddled us on the bill, but it was very nice.

Very nice food. Free papadam. Good packaging

Amazing value and the best service from Mamun. Will be back soon as I had the award winning Prawn Blast curry - delightful. A real taste sensation.

Great food and great atmosphere. My house special lamb moducash was fab! Great recommendation 👍 and the vibe was great

My wife and I went to Aladin Brick Lane for dinner recently. It was a great choice. So good and huge selection of options on menu. Had a lamb and chicken dish. The chicken dish was quite spicy but tasty. Lamb was outstanding. Start with the poppadums and spread of dips. It is BYOB so bring your wine or beer. Very busy and fun and we will be back.

Food was ok and general experience was good but completely undermined but what can only be described as stealing. We went as a group of 9 and no-one had food costing more £15, yet when we went to pay we somehow ended up paying upwards of £25 each once we split the bill evenly. There were some random charges added on the the end of the bill - on top of the service charge - that were deliberately scrawled so we couldn’t read it, but amounted to probably 30 or 40 quid. When we asked for a proper receipt with all the costs itemised, they just scrawled it out again. I find this to be absolutely disgraceful behaviour and I won’t be recommending this place to anyone. They think they can steal from you and you won’t notice - don’t risk it.

Great food, lively atmosphere and super customer service from our host Islam, would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a curry on Brick Lane

Food was below average. Very cheap quality ingredients. Service fast. They tried to bump up our bill by £30 hoping we wouldn’t notice. The whole experience just makes you feel hustled. It’s as if they’re trying to make a quick buck at any moment.

Bit over spiced and oily. Not much flavour to the onion bhaji or samosa. Restaurant was kind enough to replace item on veg platter I didn't want though. And driver found the address on their own which I often have issues with.

Very delicious and flavoured chicken tikka masala

Delicious dinner with fab service! Would definitely recommend!! Thank you to our great waiter, Islam, who was attentive and very lovely.

Great spot- amazing food and service , thank you Mr Green! Try the butter chicken for sure! and the chicken tikka blast- great stuff!

I totally recommend if you want an authentic London Curry! Every time we come to London we insure that we manage to swing by the Aladin, its a part of London for us.

food is so good fresh tasty and well packaged and I would definitely recommend

The food is reasonably priced. Tasted amazing, we were served by Manna and he made some good dish recommendations. I love that you can BYOB.

Nazrul Brick Lane brings a taste of India to life through fragrant dishes crafted from regional recipes. The chicken tikka possesses a smoky char while remaining succulent and tender. Basmati rice, naan and creamy dal makhani round out a meal fit for royalty.

Great restaurant on time as well. Good service all in all.

From the fragrant aromas that greet you when you walk in to the final bite of tender lamb korma, Nazrul Brick Lane delivers an incredible Indian food experience from start to finish. 🌟 The extensive menu offers something for everyone and the portions are generous. A new favorite!

This cozy little restaurant serves up big, bold flavors that transport you straight to India. 💃The attentive staff and reasonable prices make it a wonderful place for a night out. Don't miss the samosas - crispy and flaky on the outside with a rich, savory filling. Yum!

The food here is simply stellar! 😋 Everything we ordered was bursting with authentic Indian flavors. The chicken tikka masala melted in my mouth and the naan was perfectly fluffy. I will definitely be back to this gem of an Indian restaurant!

From the glowing tandoori dishes to the array of fragrant curries, Nazrul Brick Lane captures all the vibrant flavors of India. The chicken tikka masala had the perfect interplay of creamy and tangy, while the saffron rice provided lovely color and aroma. First-rate meal!

From the traditional clay ovens producing perfect naan to the extensive menu boasting all my favorite Indian dishes, Nazrul Brick Lane has vaulted to one of my top restaurant picks. The food quality and flavors here are unparalleled. Do yourself a favor and pay them a visit soon!

We ordered nearly half the menu during our inaugural meal at Nazrul Brick Lane and have zero regrets. Old favorites like saag paneer tasted as good as I remember from my travels in India. And new dishes I tried like lamb vindaloo exploded with complex flavors. An instant favorite restaurant for me!

I've eaten at many Indian restaurants over the years, but none have come close to the authenticity of flavors at Nazrul Brick Lane. You can tell each complex curry and stew on the menu required skill and patience to produce. From the spices to the cooking methods, this place does it right.

Everything my family and I tried during our meal at Nazrul Brick Lane was exceptionally flavorful and clearly made with quality ingredients. Standouts for me were the creamy chicken tikka masala and the crispy, flaky samosas served with sweet and tangy tamarind chutney. Perfection!

From the moment you're greeted by the friendly staff at Nazrul Brick Lane, you know you're in for a wonderful Indian food experience. We tried several classic dishes like palak paneer and navratan korma, and loved the complex flavors in every bite. The papadum and chutneys were also stellar.

I don't usually opt for vegetarian dishes at Indian restaurants but the baingan bharta at Nazrul Brick Lane made me a convert - smoky, silky cooked eggplant in a complex sauce. We also loved the traditional desserts - the perfect sweet ending to an amazing meal.

From the moment we walked into Nazrul Brick Lane, the wonderful aromas made my mouth water instantly. We tried several curry dishes which were all bursting with flavor, and I was thrilled to see some of my childhood favorites like saag paneer on the menu. Excellent food and lovely atmosphere.

You can tell the chefs at Nazrul Brick Lane have perfected authentic Indian cuisine. The chicken tikka we ordered was perfectly smoky and charred, and the sauces each dish came with were complex and flavorful. Don't skip the mango lassi either - sweet, creamy, and the perfect refreshment!

The lamb rogan josh I had at Nazrul Brick Lane was incredible - fall-off-the-bone tender lamb in a rich, aromatic gravy. Paired with their fluffy basmati rice and buttery naan, it made for a perfect meal. Highly recommend!

The aromas of cumin, cardamom and cinnamon beckon your nose upon entering this cozy establishment. Every dish I tried sang with complex flavors - from the velvety palak paneer to the subtly spiced lamb curry. Excellent service and delightful atmospherics too.

Nazrul Brick Lane brings warmth and spice to its inviting space. Attentive yet unintrusive service lets you focus on relishing the complex flavors of seared meats and gently stewed vegetables. Portion sizes impressive enough to share. A new favorite neighborhood joint!

The extensive menu at Nazrul Brick Lane offers adventure for the culinarily curious. Dishes like baingan bharta and goat curry allow you to break out of the usual chicken tikka masala routine. And the chai - sweet, creamy, gently spiced - provides the perfect ending.

Nazrul Brick Lane has earned a permanent place in my regular restaurant rotation. 🥰 The vegetable biryani overflowed with tender cubes of carrot, potato, and cashews. And the chai - sweet, steaming, completely rejuvenating. I'll be back with friends in tow!

This unassuming restaurant packs a serious punch when it comes to flavor. 🤤 Perfectly spiced curries, the creamiest saag paneer, and delightfully crispy papadum set the stage for a top-notch Indian feast. Save room for the irresistible kheer!

From crisp samosas and fiery vindaloos to rich curries and the flakiest naan in town, Nazrul Brick Lane captures India's culinary tapestry on a plate. Reasonable prices give you room to indulge in this parade of textures and flavors. A can't miss gem!

Amazing food and great service from Mr Green who accommodated my many birthday requests and provided immaculate vibes in the room

This is honestly the best Indian restaurant I've ordered from and I've ordered from ALOT. Really nice people. Absolutely amazing fresh food everytime! Have a real authentic comforting taste. I love this place I'll never stop ordering from here. Thank you your food makes me happy :)

Absolutely loved the deal we received and good was great, starters could have been bigger portion but lovely and tasty. We got served by Islam and Yakad great guys with great hospitality. We were the three girls on the corner who had a lots to talk about as we hadn't seen each other for ages. Thank you for great food.

Absolutely delicious food. My new favourite 🌟

Amazing meal as always. Came with a group of friends on a busy Saturday afternoon and the staff couldn’t have been more friendly, especially Yakub. I had the vegetarian thali and would highly recommend. Super tasty and so much choice. Will definitely be back soon!

Yakub was a great host I go to brick lane a lot and it’s the best Indian by a mile. I’ll always make it my go to when i visit yhe area.

Yakub was so lovely and helpful. Food was amazing, very tasty. Great prices too - really recommend this place. Definitely visit!

I was very happy with the quality of the food and the service from Yakub and his team was excellent. I’d recommend the Chicken Blast to anyone!

First of all the reviews in this and the nearby restaurants are fake. Check them carefully and you will undestand that also Please avoid this restaurant. We saw a rat on the toilet. I could stop the review here but there is more. We got overcharged and then the personnel did not give us the change back. The food was ok. The atmosphere was not looking good. Everyone can get fooled by Google reviews. I hope I can help you avoid this.

Great food. Great service. Great price. Great atmosphere. Will definitely come again! Islam is the best guy!! Super friendly and knows all about the menu.

Great as ever, been a bunch of times, great service, great food and not too expensive. great service from Islam

Great food and great service. We had the vegetarian food and there were lots of vegetarian options. We really enjoyed the food. Islam was a great server. We will be back! :)

Great food and great service from Islam! Poppadoms and relishes to start. We had vege masala and saag paneer for main! Great vege options

Aladdin was amazing! A big thank you to Yakub for the help at the beginning when ordering. For a tikka masala lady, i appreciate this can be at fault for ordering one, however, this was exceptional. Thanks so much

Very friendly staff. Comfy seats. I had a lamb curry (can’t remember the name) but it was bright green, it was a spinach sauce. Wow, was absolutely delicious. The lamb just fell apart and melted in your mouth. Recommend this curry. Had it with garlic...

Fantastic location with mouthwatering Indian traditional food. Additionally, the personnel is amiable and eager to assist with ordering:)

Excellent dinner that was highly recommended by a friend and did not let down. Serving us from the moment we arrived till the very end, Ali was excellent!

The service was excellent and the food was delicious. had a quiet supper. It was a little disappointing that I didn't receive a discount. Everything is fine otherwise.

I love spicy and debated between Vindaloo and Phaal. Went Uber spicy and did Phaal. The heat was great but the flavor was super pepper forward-not as balanced as I would have imagined. However, I thoroughly enjoyed my dish and want to go back and...

Nazrul Brick Lane's authentic Bangladeshi cuisine is simply outstanding. The chicken tikka masala has complex flavors and the naan is freshly baked and fluffy. Highly recommend this gem in East London!

Plenty of Indian restaurants on Brick Lane, however, this one was recommended multiple times and it hit the spot.

Absolutely awful how this place is so popular is beyond me , the food was awful and really really bland (get much better in your local indian) and the service was non existent and staff were trying to rush us out the moment we started...

I had a reservation for 7:45pm last Friday evening. The restaurant was busy and full of customers. But the service was impeccable from the start. We were seated very quickly and the tables and seating area were tidy and clean. The waiter was quick to take our order and provided us with drinks in the meantime; the food came out fast and on time. This was perfect because we were a group of six people. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Bhujon and it was the best I’ve ever tried. The staff were friendly, the food and service was above expectation. I’ve already recommended Aladdin Brick Lane to my family

The best in London! My Chicken Naga dish was amazing and the service from these guys was outstanding!

Went for a work party of 30 and wow the food was amazing had the deluxe platter for starters and chicken tikka blast for main and it was amazing and to top it of its bring your own booze which is a money saver our waiter raj was very helpful

From start to finish this place was amazing perfect for family gathering our waiter juhel(jerry) was amazing he suggested dishes that was not too spicy just right I had the chicken tikka bhujon touch hot which was out of this world I will deffo recommend this place if u haven't been u need to try it out

The food here was decent but didn’t hold a candle to the shalimar in Worcester park. The shailmar was the best curry I have ever tasted pure bliss

Me and my husband dined here on a Sat night. Booked on-line and saved 20% off the bill. The restaurant was very busy but a good atmosphere. We ordered the Naga Chicken and Chicken Dansak. Both excellent with a good amount of very tender chicken...
