Cinnamon Soho in City of London, Westminster

The idea is interesting, small plates but interesting and very well cooked. Staff are helpful and knowledgeable which is a very big plus. We've been a couple of times and will go again.

Estábamos celebrando nuestro aniversario, y siguiendo nuestra solicitud, tuvimos la mejor mesa íntima para dos en la decoración somptua, inusual y elegante de la biblioteca.El servicio fue impecable y amable.El menú increíble y nuestra selección de platos servidos a la perfección.Muy recomendable para ocasiones especiales.Incluso nos dieron una tarjeta escrita a mano para finalizar la comida, con un postre especial para celebrar, un toque encantador y atento.

Cinnamon Soho is a fusion of European and Indian plates for sharing, tapas style, very modern with balanced flavors

Great food / menu - I love the masala mash. Goes well with theirs spicy chicken dish (can't recall name). Really good location and setting. However you do need to book in advance or else it does fill up.

Tuvimos un buen tiempo probando el menú degustación de 8 platos y una amplia selección de bastante agradable de delicias. Los mejores fueron probablemente las bolas cordero kofte, pero la coliflor también era excelente. Y los postres al final estaban muy bien (especialmente el kulfi pops).

Good fun tasty version of Indian food. Smart and well cooked. Very accommodating of a coeliac and altered the tasting menu to be gluten free. Service on the slower side but very polite.

Tuve una gran noche. Cálida bienvenida, grifo de agua y una buena selección de bebidas. Asientos de base. No como cualquier indio l he estado antes. El primer plato era compartido pelotas con relleno. Muy sabrosa. Número limitado de platos, los dos platos que teníamos eran absolutamente delicioso. Nos gusta compartir platos, pero tuvimos que pedir. No tienen un dulce como estábamos llenos! Parece que no quiere una propina. No nos decepcionó.

My friends and I shared a meal for my birthday. It was delicious and enjoyable.

Food is extremely tasty ! The quantity provided was less for the money value- one would have to eat again as its is like mini meal.

The service was slow, not only that, the portion sizes were ridiculous. It’s the tiniest portion of pau bhaji I’ve ever seen for a main course. Left feeling hungry, disappointing and the flavours were ok!

Smaak van de gerechten was super, maar de porties zijn heel klein. De zaak is niet echt gezellig en moeilijk te vinden. Wij hadden geen reservatie en kregen maar 1u de tijd om te eten. Het personeel was niet vriendelijk en verwisselden geregeld de tafels. Zo kwamen ze 2x het verkeerde drinken brengen. Smaak top, rest flop!

I had read some TripAdvisor comments about how the food was great but the service was poor. Well, our experience was far from it - BOTH the food and the service were great! Our waiter was very attentive and personable and the food tasted authentic and wasn't too pricey. The only thing was that when we asked for water they brought out bottles which we were then charged for (although the staff removed the charges as soon as we asked), so I think it was just miscommunication, so make sure you specify for tap water if that's what you want. Great area, tasty food and spot on service!

Encontré el Canela mientras buscan un restaurante de curry. El servicio era muy bueno y atento y me pareció que la calidad de la comida buena y sabrosa.El precio era justo y el entorno no era la típica decoración india así un poco diferente.Por desgracia, los aseos de señoras no eran tan bien administrado en términos de limpieza, en el momento de nuestra visita.

Por la tarde visita de un sol con la familia. Decidimos tomar el té de la tarde, por desgracia estaba por debajo de las expectativas. Se sirve en platos individuales iso el soporte tradicional, esta fue una decepción como ningún esfuerzo puesto en la presentación. Consistía de un par de pakoras, medio bocadillo de pollo tikka y una corredera de cordero, además de algunos artículos de dulces. Ninguna era notable y en £17. 50 cada uno más probablemente mejor ir a muchos otros lugares que no menús para ese tipo de precio. El servicio era adecuado pero nada extraordinario, pero no recomendar el restaurante para no cobrar por el servicio, que es una rareza en el restaurante hoy en día.

Delicious food in a great area! Definitely going to come back, especially for the garlic naan and house curry.

Nice set menu - Shame about the squeaky lift!!

Comí aquí con un amigo antes de coger un juego el sábado a la hora del almuerzo. La comida estaba muy bien hecho, lleno de potenciadores perfecta y la presentación era también muy agradable. La espera fue un poco larga ya, aunque sólo había otra mesa de 4 personas en el restaurante, así que sólo me alegro llegamos antes que llenaba un rato más tarde! Pero la comida era sin duda vale la pena. Muy ingredientes frescos y muy abundante. Sin duda volveremos aquí!

Fui el sábado por la noche para una cena de cumpleaños. La comida era realmente deliciosa y el menú es excelente relación calidad-precio, pero el servicio y el tono de algunos de los empleados que lo bajan.1. Llegamos y nuestra mesa no estaba lista, lo cual estuvo bien ya que nos mandaron al bar para tomar una copa. Después de unos minutos nos preguntaron qué queríamos tomar y estaban a mitad de efectuar un pedido cuando el miembro del personal corrió a mover mesas con un poco de explicación y las bebidas eran olvidado (en vez de aprobar este a alguien más) así que nos sentimos un poco despedido y no bebidas!2. Más tarde cuando nos sentamos en la mesa y examinando el menú, algunos de nosotros nos preguntó uno de los empleados (posiblemente el gerente) preguntas acerca de los artículos en el menú, y él era bastante inútil y dio respuestas hosco en vez de tratar de describir las cosas de una manera que haga que quieres ordenar, sentimos que no se podía hacer preguntas o consulta nada como sus respuestas implícitas que eran un poco tontos si no ya saben qué cosas eran.3. Lo más extraño fue que, a pesar de la publicidad que está abierto hasta las 1 de la mañana, el gerente no podía esperar para salir de la puerta alrededor de las 11. 30. Después de haber pagado la factura, algunos de nosotros tuvimos vino izquierda y quería sentarse y disfrutar, pero nos hicieron sentir muy incómodos y repetidas veces dije que era cerrando, aunque cuatro nuevos clientes había llegado a una mesa y en menús. Esto fue muy decepcionante, ya no sólo pasamos una considerable suma en las dos horas que habíamos estado allí, no eran ni siquiera capaces de disfrutar de nuestro vino restante tras la factura había sido pagada y, de hecho, uno de los camareros empezaron a recoger algunos de los medio lleno vasos en una bandeja. Estoy claro por qué el restaurante anuncia como abierto hasta tarde, pero luego crea un ambiente muy incómodo para los clientes que quieren disfrutar de su noche.El pobre servicio al cliente realmente decepciona en este lugar, porque de lo contrario es realmente agradable, comida deliciosa y un lugar fantástico en una ubicación de primera. Tal vez reconsiderar su horario y no toma reservas de grupo en 9. 30:00 si quieres cerrar temprano? Probablemente nos hubiéramos comprado más copas si nos deje estancia que parece un extraño enfoque al cliente no son quería.

Portions were so small for the price.

Walked in without reservation on a chance. Great find in a lovely part of Soho/Carnaby street. Tasting menu good value and chance to sample a range of dishes. Very reasonably priced.

Very friendly, prompt service, average Indian food, but nice. Set dinner good value, a la carte less so.

Visitamos la cocina de canela como invitados a celebrar un cumpleaños de un amigo en el 3 de marzo. Habíamos estado en la Canela Club Westminster que nos encantó y estaban deseando la comida aquí. Todo acerca de nuestra experiencia fue excelente, la comida era deliciosa, nos encantó el ambiente relajado que era muy diferente de la Canela Club, y el servicio fue excepcional. Yo estaba particularmente impresionado con los camareros; éramos un grupo que por desgracia se convirtió en cada vez más propensos a los accidentes como la noche progresaba. Perdí la cuenta del número de vasos que estaban rotas, pero nos atendieron muy bien desde el principio hasta el final, y el personal no podría haber sido más amables cuando deben haber nos pareció muy frustrante. Gracias a todos por nuestra maravillosa visita, volveremos (y será mucho más cuidado la próxima vez! )

Below average food, dull atmosphere and spilt candle wax over my jacket amount to a poor experience.

Friendly staff. Not very cosy. Good for a quick snack or meal.

food was nice but far too overpriced and the portion sizes were pitiful. Service was meh, no one checked on our food the whole meal and had to wait 10 minutes for our plates to be cleared then a further 15 minutes before we had to ask for dessert menus for ourselves. Once we had the dessert menus it took someone so long to come over in the end we just paid the bill and left. Save your money and go somewhere else

En el lado positivo, la comida es deliciosa y sabrosa con una plétora de opciones. Sin embargo eso no compensa el tamaño de las raciones que para los platos principales, que son bastante pequeñas y decepcionante. Los postres de de buena parte. Por favor tenga en cuenta si debe tener señal móvil no pasee es la sección del sótano. Incluso la camarera tiene que caminar con agitar su terminal de pago tarjeta en el techo para permitir los pagos.

Excellent service with friendly & really helpful staff. Delicious food too.

The food was delicious and the atmosphere nice and relaxed. The waitress was very nice and helpful. However, a mistake was made in the order and we didn’t realize until the bill came. Some sort of side we never ordered was added to our bill and when we said it, the manager came and without even saying anything just put my card in the machine until I realised it was the same amount and they hadn’t removed the item from the bill. Very annoying to see how he tried to get away with it. I mentioned it and ensued a very long back and forth. It took a long time until he did something and yet he came back with a revised bill that only had a small discount but still had half the price of this item. Honestly very irritating. Such a shame as we really liked the food and would have gladly come back, but now too bad. Game over and it’s entirely because of the manager himself NOT the waitress.

Lovely meal and very good value for money. Standard of service was friendly and attentive.

Everything is fine, but just a little underwhelming. The food doesn't taste particularly fresh, and I think the menu could definitely be updated and improved. A few of the main dishes are certainly too pricey for the quality and amount you receive

Cinnamon Soho is the relaxed restaurant in the cinnamon group. It’s in Kingly Court in Carnaby Street, which is a really fun and vibrant location. The food was really decent and indulgent too... traditional but with a modern twist. We actually had a difficult time deciding what to order because almost every dish on the menu was intriguing. Special marks for the Kolkata spiced cod and papdi chaat. It’s perfect for casual dates and family meals. Alfresco dining as well.

I’ve tried the Cinnamon Club and this complements it well for different, less formal occasions. Great food, great value and great service

The food was lovely, the service friendly and helpful, the prices are reasonable. This was our third visit and every time has been very enjoyable and there are always new dishes available.

Husbands birthday. I called ahead and was advised they would write a message on his plate, that never happened which I could live with but then it just got worse and worse. We went as a family of 4 for afternoon tea with 1 vegetarian. Not sure what went wrong, but my son's veg afternoon tea didn't come with our food. We chased and had to wait an additional 25 plus mins. No extra drinks offered or discount, one guy did say sorry once, but that just didnt cut it. Cost nearly £100 for an experience I really wouldnt want to do again. By the time the missing food arrived, we had all finished our mediocre tea. I have been for quite a few afternoon teas and we were all excited about having one with an Indian twist, but it didn't live up to expectations. I don't write bad reviews, but it was all just pretty crappy. They could of tried to salvage the situation, but didn't really seen at all fussed. Food was ok but not worth the money or putting up with the bad service......

We didn’t actually get to eat anything. 45 minutes after putting on our order the food still hasn’t arrived & we were unable to get a straight response from the staff as to what had happened - so went elsewhere. Really disappointing. Would rate zero for everything if that was given as an option

Delicious Indian street food in a hipster setting. The 8-course sharing menu is superb value for money - it includes a cocktail as well! Service friendly but rather slow - there was a long wait between some of the courses.

I booked with the intention of treating my daughter and daughter in law to afternoon tea - it sounded a bit different and a nice way to spend a bit of time together. We arrived and ordered just before 5. A conversation with one of the managers at 10 past assured us that the order had been taken by the food was freshly cooked and so would take a little bit of time. At half past five, the same manager asked if we had ordered vegetarian options. At this point, I became uneasy - and asked if our order had actually been processe. There wasn't a straight answer to this - only that the food would be coming 'soon'. At quarter to six we gave up and left. Really disappointing

Casual dinning informal atmosphere with interesting cocktails & fusion Indian food.

We have been here several times before visiting the theatre. The pre-theatre menu is great value, the food is delicious and the staff are very friendly.

Visited for dinner for my 30th birthday. Went for the tasting menu which was very nice. Good value for money and would definitely recommend

En déplacement professionnel, Je suis allée déjeuner seule dans ce restaurant.

The service was excellent and the staff went out of their way to accommodate our dietary choices. I had the vegetarian high chai which was good but nothing special. The only disappointment was the very small portion sizes. I would have expected a bit more food for the price paid.

We had a delicious meal here! We (1 adult, 2 children) shared 2 curries and some Naan bread. It was absolutely delicious. The service was also very good, and the staff was super-friendly. One of the kids ordered a new soda because she did not like the coke (although nothing was wrong with it), and she got the new one free of charge. The curry is one of the best we've ever had (and we have been to a lot of Indian restaurants). We first tried to get a table in the very busy Indian further up the street, but are very happy that we ended up at Cinnamon instead, because it was much more peaceful and the food and service was so good.

As with all the “Cinnamon” restaurants the quality was outstanding. Great relaxed atmosphere, with friendly, attentive and helpful staff. We ordered the 8 dish taster menu which was a brilliant way to experience a good selection of its signature dishes.

Nunca he revisado un restaurante antes, pero sentía que tenía que porque literalmente tuve el brunch cumpleaños más increíbles. El Director General Amolak era excepcional y sólo me sentí que tenía que escribir algo aquí. La comida era increíble. Tuve la bolas de lentejas frías para empezar que eran fabulosos y nuestra mesa compartida de vegetales biryani y muchos otros platos también! No recuerdo ahora todas pero la comida estaba caliente, abundante y vale la pena cada céntimo. Amolak, gracias por hacer que nuestro tiempo realmente tan especial y sus habilidades de servicio al cliente eran tan apreciado. No puedo esperar a volver de nuevo.

nice pleasant eveing with good food in a lively environment!

Unhygienic - floors were very dirty and especially the toilets. Food - very small portions especially for the money you are paying. Better off going to Dishoom which is tastier, more authentic and better value for money. Service - very average.

I don't usually write reviews, but my experience here was so awful I made an exception. The meal was a disaster from start to finish. Which is a shame because I had heard great things about Cinnamon Soho.

Booked a table here for family dinner as wanted something spicy but different. It was Monday so not too busy, still enough people for a comfortable atmosphere, quickly seated by friendly staff and drinks came straight away from a great choice from the bar. Starters were crazy ! Spiced olives, Bangla scotch eggs, Marsala hummus and bullet chillis wow ! Mains were the same mix of Indian/English fusion, oxtail vindaloo with smash, roganjosh shepherds pie and chargrilled cauliflower ! More WOW ! great service and value, portions just the right size but couldn’t manage the puddings which again looked great. Well recommended

I went in CS last Monday evening. I was alone and I decided to eat in front of the window, to see the walkers. The restaurant has a nice terrace but inside is a little bit bare. The bicycle on the wall is funny. The food that I ate, was amazing. I listened Federico's suggestion and I chose the King Prawns. Alessia prepared me a very good cocktail called Soho Super Star. The only Indian was the manager, but it doesn't matter, I had a good dinner and, I'm Italian as well.

I visited this place purely by chance as I was looking for an Indian restaurant.

8 course tasting menu was excellent

The service was good, but the food was mediocre and bland. Nice atmosphere but probably wouldn't come back.

Mr G and I had dinner here and may I say “ I could have eaten his too “I really loved the menu..the selection and choices were right down my street.. We did love the cocktails a tad too much.. We were quickly shown to our table and our drinks order taken promptly..The choice of cocktails were great so we enjoyed a few while we waited for our starters ..The shrimp was fantastic..followed by the totally amazing Ox cheek..And as my dinner partner doesn’t eat meat he had the haddock curry...he loved it..the tamarind really added the sour I like in fish..tasty tasty tasty...It’s certainly not your typical Indian...(whatever that is) But in my opinion Vivek is on to a winner with his twist on Indian food...I must mention the staff at Soho they were attentive without being on top of us..gave us the space we needed as we settled and then checked on us to see if everything was to our liking..The manager was such a lovely man..Well spoken and professional a true gent..He oozed charisma...Thanks for a lovely evening..see you soon....

This was the best Indian meal I have had since I returned to the UK from Dubai. It was Valentines night, so had to have a set menu, but it was still good

I don't usually write reviews, but my experience here was so awful I made an exception. The meal was a disaster from start to finish. Which is a shame because I had heard great things about Cinnamon Soho. When we arrived, we were told that we had to have the Valentine's Day set menu and the restaurant was serving nothing else. We hadn’t been told that this would be the case when booking the table so we raised it with the manager. The manager tried to pin blame on us telling us that we should know all restaurants would have set menus on Valentine’s Day. I’m sorry but if there was only a set menu available for the night, it is the restaurant’s responsibility to advertise this clearly. It was rude for the manager to try and excuse it and blame it on the customers. We saw at least 3 other tables being caught out by this and the manager being equally defensive with them. Either way, we had no choice but the stay. For starters, the Keema Paratha was burnt and tasteless. For mains I ordered the Keralan shrimp curry, having asked the waiter how big the shrimps were. He assured me they were large (he actually used two hands to show size). When they arrived, they were supermarket sized at best. The “vegetables” that came with the meals were literally two leaves of pak choi (not even the whole pak choi). As for the Chettinad spiced grilled lamb curry, the meat was so “tender” it disintegrated into mush pretty much instantly. I’ve seriously had better curries from a takeaway. The dessert, a “bitter chocolate tartlet with an orange and mint salad”, I’m sorry but a single mint leaf does not count as a salad. The only silver lining was that the food arrived quickly (probably because they were serving nothing else) so that we could eat and get out of there faster. For a meal that cost £90, I wouldn’t be comfortable even paying half of that for the quantity or the quality of the food. Avoid this place at all cost.

This was the worst restaurant I’ve been to food was put on my plate from freezer, Nan bread was like popodom, when I complained this to manger he didn’t care and told me to pay for the bill and get out.. for the food we didn’t eat

Estuve hace unos días en este restaurante con mi novio y la verdad que la cena fue genial y el servicio que recibimos por parte de Federico y Chiara fue estupendo ;), fueron muy simpáticos y agradables con nosotros y eso se agradece cuando quieres pasar una agradable velada. Seguro que volveremos por alli.

Great food and service amazing fusion of English and Indian food really delicious and different especially the scotch eggs and olives. Service very friendly and attentive well recommended

Me puse al día con algunos colegas de negocios aquí para la cena. . Llegué tarde mi grupo ya había sentado cuando llegué allí. Nos pareció que el personal era atento y amable, como el restaurante lleno y les dieron ocupado. . La comida era excelente sabores eran excelentes y yo realmente disfrutamos de los chefs toque en cocina india,

An enjoyable restaurant from the people who brought us the Cinnamon Club in Westminster. Good quality Indian food

I enjoyed the restaurant, and Adrien's cocktails are great. I liked the modern concept of the Indian restaurant.

De passage, je me suis arrêté dans ce restaurant idéalement situé.

I was in this restaurant for an evening with friends, a beautiful place in Soho, welcoming and new. Very good drinks. Staff in general very kind and helpful especially the french guy at the bar, very cool!

Really great time with my friend :) , beautiful place !! very nice decoration and food .. And big up for the french bartender who made us discover testy cocktail :) !! I recommend.

Very authentic and cozy restaurant where you can enjoy greatly flavoured Indian dishes in a nice candlelight ambience.

One of the best Indian food I had. Quantity was just right and not overwhelming. Every bite was a good bite! Flavorful! The place is nice and quaint... very hip and tucked away in the Soho area of London next to a strip of restaurants. The service is also as good as the food. Highly recommended.

Myself and my wife visited the Cinnamon Soho for the first time and were greeted by the very personable Amolak, The General Manager, and shown to our table. When we choose our main dishes, we asked Amolak what he would personally recommended as small accompaniments. His recommendations proved to be excellent choices and overall it was a lovely meal with no one flavour being too intense. The service was equally excellent and we would like to personally thank the young gentlemen by the name of Akash………. As a postscript, I am quite surprised by some of the negative reviews for the Cinnamon Soho as I feel them to be unjustified and trust that my review has gone some way to redressing the balance.

Awesome place, small and intimate and not crowded. Comfy place for a small friends group get together

La comida era increíble, absolutamente delicioso. Sin embargo, el servicio era terriblemente desatendido. Nos paramos en la puerta por un tiempo de espera para ser visto, y mientras nuestros entrantes rápido, tuvimos que bajar a alguien bandera clara, luego esperar 45 minutos más para nuestra red. Tuvimos postre, pero nadie nos dio los menús y cuando intentamos llamar a alguien por la ley el personal quedó charlando en el bar.

Tuvimos una comida en Canela Soho última noche para celebrar una ocasión especial de los miembros de la familia. Yo había hecho la reserva y había dicho a todo el mundo a esperar grandes cosas, habiendo comido aquí antes.

Good food but average service. We opted for the pre-theatre menu (2 courses for 22) with a cocktail. not bad value but very small starters. We waited about 15minutes at our table before being offered drinks/ menus. the cinnamon bellini was fine though a little sweet. We enjoyed the tilapia starter the most. food was enjoyable but on the whole, it was a rather average meal.

Booked early for the set dinner menu and rang to check we could still order that by 6.30 if we wanted it. Was asked to move the booking to 6pm as otherwise we might not have the table for too long. 6pm was very early but we agreed - but from the moment we sat down even then, we felt the pressure. Asked for our order straight away, two courses came quickly after each other, and very soon after we finished we were asked if we wanted the bill. Or more or less told it was coming. So it’s really nice food and the set menu is great value for the quality - and if you are off to the theatre the speed & efficiency will please you - but we had never felt the pressure of table-turning so acutely. Know that a lot of London restaurants do it but somehow it felt more extreme that night, probably because it happened right from the point of being asked to arrive 30 mins earlier. If that doesn’t worry you then yes do try it. Nice place apart from this!

Fantastic food. One of the best Indian restaurants in London

Sólo tenía un encantador almuerzo con amigos. . . La comida es impresionante, bien preparada y bien presentada. Una buena variedad de comida y cócteles y el servicio era excelente! !

I love Indian food in all guises. However, Cinnamon Soho disappointed me on 2 occasions. There was hence never a third visit. First of all, the manager is really stiff and unfriendly. I asked if they could make a small change in the dish due to my allergy and he outright refused on a simple request. This either means they are serving frozen dishes or the manager is a non-customer friendly person. Secondly, they have very limited vegetarian dishes on the menu. For an Indian restaurant, I was quite surprised with that. Avoid!!

Went in around 19.00 p.m. Saturday, had to wait a bit to get a table for two, but waiting time was not long. Waiters are nice and fast menu is easy, prices are Soho level. Soho restaurants getting busy all the time but this place had some kind of harmony where you can eat good food and feel like nothing stands behind you. Ordered lamb it was very nice, plates are not that big but once again it is not a cheap area to sit in. Taste was great.

Went with my partner and a friend as had previously been to Cinnamon Kitchen in the city, which was exceptional and a sister restaurant of this one.

Overall this restaurant was a disappointment. So unhappy that I picked this place as service and quality of food in other restaurants (dishoom & Darjeeling express) of this kind in the area are much better. The food was not the best I’ve tasted and the set menu was a set price but when the bill arrived the items were split and worked out more expensive. To add to that the bottle of processco that we didn’t even have was on our bill at the end -an additional £46.00. So nearly charged double for what we had. I would not recommend going here at all!!!

We have been looking forward to visiting Cinnamon Soho for a while, having heard good thinks ( admittedly a while a go) and we finally visited last week. We were expecting to be dazzled since the restaurant is fairly pricey . unfortunately , the food was disappointing, terribly salty ( all four dishes we tried ) - and believe me I do love salt and always put plenty in my cooking... Either the chef lost his taste or hasn't tasted any of the dishes .. Also, the speed of serving would suggest that all is pre-made and nothing freshly cooked to order. fish was chewy and dry, and again sauces very incredibly salty, almost impossible to eat if i'm honest. I should have complained but I didn't . website content vs reality two different things. quality of food just not there.. you get much better quality at your local curry house than there i'm afraid. Service was OK . seating not very comfortable and small tables, nowhere to put the jackets etc . the only saving grace were the cocktails which were original and very tasty so few positive points go to the bartender. all in all, we won't be coming back.

Somewhat disappointing . not what we were expecting judging by the website and the quality of food we were expecting. Service was ok, but food had a lot to wish for. Dishes were incredibly salty . Cocktails were very nice . Sadly we won't be returning. maybe time to change the chef..

Awful service, no concession for an allergy, we left after starters because they never came back to ask if we wanted mains!!!!

Great food and service. Big choice of drinks and dishes on the menu.

Good fusion indian food. would recommend it. The staff could be more accommodating, even if they have large numbers. they wanted to get you to eat quickly and leave rather than enjoy your time

I was VERY disappointed with this restaurant. I have eaten here before and it was lovely. But this time, we left before ordering because the manager was extremely rude. We had booked a table pre-theatre as we saw an advertisement on Cinnamon Soho's own website - 2 courses for £15 or 3 for £18. When we got there, there was no such pre-theatre menu. I asked the waitress and showed her the offer and menu on their website from my phone. The manager then proceeded to come over and say there was no pre-theatre menu, there was a set menu for £22.00 but that was it. He did not acknowledge that the website was blatantly contradicting what he was saying, and in the end he was extremely rude and all he would repeat to us was "THIS IS THE PRICE" whilst shoving the menu in our face that said £22. Whilst not only extremely embarrassing and rude, I was disappointed as I was taking my sister out for dinner and the theatre. I could not be more shocked at the appalling behavior of a manager. The very least that could be done would be to apologise for the website error, acknowledge that we had specifically booked on the premise of accepting this deal and honour it. Instead we were treated to repetitive drill of "this is the price this is the price". I will never return here, and I will tell every one I know about this experience. This is not only rudeness but false advertising. I have also taken a photo of their website, which STILL has the false offer on it (January 2018).

I ate here on a Saturday afternoon with my two sisters. We had originally wanted to eat at a well known Indian restaurant a few doors down but it was heaving and there was up to an hour's wait for a table. Cinnamon Soho seemed like a suitable alternative and it proved to be a fantastic choice.

Had eaten here four times before since it opened, and it was good, and so decided to have lunch here before Christmas. What a huge disappointment. None of the staff seemed to be Indian, they said my table reservation did not exist until I pointed it out on their computer screen, service was unfriendly and surly, and totally lacking in knowledge of Indian dishes. A prawn starter was tasteless and unseasoned, and on asking for some salt to try and liven it up it took about four minutes until a tiny little bowl of salt appeared. Do they not have salt and pepper cellars? The chicken biryani was just about edible, but it came with some pink gunge which they called raita; on sending that back and asking for white yoghurt raita it took another four or five minutes before that appeared and we received just plain white yoghurt with no mint, or coriander or cucumber....... What is going on at this place? It seems that the Cinnamon "brand" is maybe getting too full of itself. I have enjoyed going to Club and Bazaar many times in the past but worry now that they too have dropped their standards - it will be an expensive venture to see if Club has indeed deteriorated, not so much Bazaar. With Chor Bizarre no more, Geeta's in Willesden Lane long closed, India Club under threat of closure, Dishoom overrated, my choices of good Indian restaurants seem to be diminishing. May try Bazaar in the near future but with a little trepidation.

Dinner with a friend mid week. the restaurant was quiet when i first arrived (at 6pm) but soon filled up. had a lovely atmosphere with music playing. Food was good as always. Staff are friendly and always around when needed. one of my favorites.

Esta es la segunda vez en este restaurante y, de nuevo, la experiencia no fue tat genial. Simplemente no tienen derecho cuando se trata de la combinación de platos y la preparación no es indio, parece como si un chef extranjero está intentando su mano en la comida india. Lo pierdes, fuimos aquí ya que no hay lugar en Dishoom, así que fuimos a canela. Necesita un montón de mejoría en la preparación de los alimentos.

This is by far my worst experience in a restaurant. Worst food and worst service. Very small portions and not properly cooked. When complained to the manager was extremely rude and offensive instead of containing the situation and apologizing! Avoid going there. Disgusting and pathetic . A very sickening attitude and pathetic manager.

Staff was very nice and polite but not very attentive. Food was ok, but definitely had better elsewhere for cheaper. It wasn't a terrible experience but didn't feel like it was good value for money.

Apalling food.. very disappointed. Not the standard I was expecting

Por favor, no creo que la comida será algo parecido al mismo nivel que la Canela Club.

Ordered from the set menu which was a great choice. Had a variety of dishes -all were very good. Would recommend to anyone visiting London to try the Indian food served here.

Very nice food which was served quickly. Didn't like the basement area where seated as didn't do anything for ambience

I had visited the Cinnamon Club in Westminster around 7 years ago, and throughly enjoyed the experience. I had great expectations for the visit, but was sorely let down.Positives - we were seated immediately without a reservation (party of four) around 7pm on a Friday evening.We were also moved to a better table away from the entrance (we did not ask to be moved, it was suggested by the staff.)Negatives - Most portion sizes for the mains were ridiculously small. We were told by the waitress which plates would be smaller and which ones would be classed as mains sized - there is no way the portions were adequate. I dread to think how small the smaller ones were!!The waitresses seemed to be lacking in positive attitude to the clients, which was rather apparent also.My partner had a milk drink (lassi) spilt on him by the attendee. This was totally an accident and understand accidents happen all the time, however, the attitude of the staff after this had occurred was more than distasteful, not helped by the fact that fellow diners were laughing. The drink managed to catch the back of his wool jumper, down his wool scarf, and also down his leather jacket. We would have expected at least a decent apology and at least some discount off the receipt, considering the value of the clothes damaged. We were offered a reduction of the service charge (you think?!) and two milk drinks. This was absolutely in no way or form acceptable. My partner tried to discuss this with the manager, and there was such a bitter reaction to his request! We would not take no for an answer and asked for a further discount. The manager advised he would only take off the two milk drinks and pay for the dry cleaning for the scarf (no mention of the rest of the clothes which he had to wear for the rest of the night). Eventually, we got £20 off the bill. Also when our friend tried to leave earlier than the rest of us and pay his part, the manager had an awful attitude with him.Accidents happen, that is not the issue here, it is the lack of service and hospitality. Such a silly situation could have been quickly resolved. I feel that this gives such a bad name to the Cinnamon Club. Come and dine if you fancy poor service, small portions and average food.

If you are expecting anything vaguely like the standard of the Cinnamon Club, you will be seriously disappointed. Service was poor - very slow. Little explanation of the dishes and no advice on the heat of the food so I had to ask for yoghurt for the haddock curry which was seriously hot indeed. Crowded, rushed and very much a quick cafe experience with the food crammed into small bowls. Felt like school dinners.

Cinnamon Soho is a real surprise and a hidden gem. The food is different from your usual high Street Indian. Interesting new flavours and ingredients. A great place to come for a quick dinner, although it was quite busy and the service a little bit slow, but this did not spoil an amazing meal.

My wife and I went for their twist on afternoon tea. My wife booked in advance and we were very excited about it. Once in the restaurant we waited for over an hour. Eventually the guy who had been sitting on his laptop by the bar came over and told us that the chef had dropped our tea on the floor and they had none left. I was in disbelief as we were a couple of hours from closing and it seemed hard to believe they had no more ingredients plus we had waited over an hour for something which would normally take 20 minutes max but what could I do. He suggested I pick something from the menu, we didn't have much time and needed to eat so we picked a few dishes. Chana masala humus-edible but average, double cooked pork belly-dry as a bone and tasted old, crab and curry lead balls-didnt taste fresh and over salty. I struggle to believe Vivek Singh who I highly respect can have anything to do with this. The staff were rude and unattentive. The manager sat on his laptop at the bar- I assumed he was a customer. He was not remotely sympathetic that they had ruined our afternoon. I will never ever go back to this place.

It was Christmas and the place was full of lots of office Christmas lunch parties which made the place very lively. However, I was still able to take a dear friend there for his birthday lunch and have enjoyable conversation and a truly delicious lunch. Thank you.
