Visited last night and was genuinely impressed. Each dish had its own distinct and authentic flavor—no generic sauces or repeated tastes here. Another bonus: it's BYOB, which makes the whole dining experience even better and more affordable. I will definitely be going back.

I was always wondering this place every time I passed by on the way home. Finally, I had a dinner with my friend here and it was worthy to wait for 30 mins to seat (Please note that I visited Friday evening). I highly recommend to have a meal here with a grateful mind. - Chicken Tikka Masala 4.5 out of 5 - King Prawn Biryani 4 out of 5 (with lassi sauce 5 out of 5) - Lamb Garlic Chilli 5 out of 5 - Garlic Naan 3.5 out of 5

Fabulous Indian homemade food restaurant. Very good quality and very reasonable price. They don't serve alcohol, but you can easily bring your bottle of wine or beer, they think it's perfect. The staff is very friendly and they give you great advice on the types of dishes and quantities. After eating several days at markets in London, good, homemade food is appreciated. We went two nights for dinner without hesitation.

We had Onion Bhaji, Chicken and lamb tikka masala, coconut rice, fried onion rice and garlic maad. When I tell you this is a good spot I mean is a good spot. We were just looking for a nice place to go have a meal, everyone was lovely was super cozy and delicious. Absolutely will come back as soon as I can. My only regret is we didn't ask for advice as my friends never had indian food before and we ordered 3 tikka masalas and now that I know they would be super helpful if you are not sure what you want. Next time I want to go and try plenty of different dishes. They also helped us with the amount of food etc. Worth every penny, and is not even dear.

Ordered last night had the Lamb Rogan josh which was nice and no complaints there. The issue i had was i ordered poppadoms and i only received a one which was broken up in a bag. One poppadom is ridiculous when it comes with three dips and it did put me off ordering again as usually poppadoms are free and the fact i paid and received one is not a good look

I’m obviously in the minority here thinking that since this place reopened, the prices have increased alarmingly and the quality & portion size has become miserable. I’m still retching from a £14.00 ‘chicken tikka masala’ that hadn’t been introduced to the meaning of tikka but was just a sad little chicken breast in a soup of tomato ketchup and about a kilo of desiccated coconut, it was inedible. The returned offering wasn’t much better but at least didn’t taste like a Bounty in ketchup. I thought all of our food was bland and disappointing and a premium is added for the BYO concept, albeit still cheaper than a wine list. A typical example of how London restaurants are now overcharging for poor food and a sad ending to happy years of coming here. Next.

I’m writing an honest review. The chicken tandoori is excellent but too salty. The food is very good but it appears overcooked and mushy for some dishes, like the Biryani’s vegetable curry. Just a note to say some dishes are too salty and so difficult to eat. It’s better to be under-salted than over-salted. The service is excellent and food is made with kindness but too salty. This review is for food that is delivered. I hope this helps. Update - Found hair in the food. Sorry but won’t be ordering again.

What a gem. Part of me wants to tell everybody about it, part of me wants to keep it secret so it doesn’t lose its magic! Excellent value for money (please adjust expectations accordingly, this is not fine dining, this is an all you can eat buffet for less than £10!), all the food that we tried was delicious (multiple salad options, multiple curry options, multiple dhal options, all vegetarian), the buffet was constantly refreshed so even if some items were finishing there was always more coming. The atmosphere is great - and the health posters on the walls add to the charisma of the place. Would recommend.
