Cinnamon Tree in Islington

Always on our list of places to visit on our trips to London, and this place never lets us down. Food is consistently great and the service first class. Hope to be back here soon.

The food was delish and very decently priced. Top tip. Will remember this place for another visit to London. We tried the butter chicken, lamb vindaloo (spicy) and Tikka Masala. The spiced naan was the best I’ve ever had and the rice was tasty as well.

This is one of the worst Indian restaurants that I have been to. I will not recommend this place to anyone.. chicken tikka was tasteless, biriyani was stale and food was utterly disappointing Never again!!!

Excellent restaurant . The four of us each had different main course and all were first rate genuine Indian dishes. Service was friendly and efficient and atmosphere just right.

Exmouth Market has seen a transformation over the last 2 decades, all very trendy now. The fact that Cinnamon Tree is still thriving after the changes is testament to the restaurants quality and service in both food and customer satisfaction.

The food was mixed . My son enjoyed his curry but my chicken Dansak the chicken was overcooked and dry . Staff were friendly and clean and nice venue

Extremely good food. The Lamb Shank in combination with Pilau rice is particularly recommended. The staff is nice and accommodating, but doesn't impose themselves. All in all a really good restaurant in a lovely location.

Amazing Indian food! Get the shared dinner for 2. Such a deal and so much delicious food. I left dragging my stomach out the door… in a good way!!!

Solid Indian restaurant: come here not for unique dishes / flavours, but for remarkable consistency. You can always count on a delicious curry and a good customer service.

Have used 200+ times on just eat, visited restaurant and was exactly the same will always use as my go to takeaway, one of the best, and great guys

I usually order from another takeaway but was recommended the cinnamon tree, it did not disappoint, the food was fantastic and I can honestly say I’ll be ordering from here every time from now on

Das Essen ist super lecker und der Service ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wir kommen immer gerne hierher, wenn wir mal in London sind.

Food was lovely and always on time from cinnamon tree perfect

The best Indian meal I have had so far in London. The staff were pleasant and helpful.

I get takeaway from here regularly, never been disappointed. Classic dishes served at a reasonable price and consistently good standard of quality.

Very satisfied! First time here and I will br back. Portion sizes very good, prices very reasonable , flavours very good! 10/10

lovely food as always. I tried aloo palak this time and it was very tasty, full of flavour with plenty of spinach, they serve the best keema naan I've ever had. Have recommended this restaurant to many friends.

The food was decent, however the chicken seemed to be quite dry. Other than that the lamb was decent. Many thanks

Cinnamon Tree Indian: Deceptive and disappointing. Beware! Despite glowing reviews, the food was mediocre at best. Suspiciously, all positive reviews seem fabricated. Service was slow, ambiance lackluster. Avoid this deceitful establishment.

Fine indian Food. A bit overpriced

Excellent resteraunt. Great food and perfect service. Took recommendations from our server regards dishes. Ordered 2 dishes, 2 nann and 2 rice and found it the perfect amount

Ate here while on a short break in London. Took recommendation from the waiter and wasn't disappointed. Two dishes between three with nans and rice was just perfect. If your in the areas give it a try

We always visit here on our trips to London and have never been disappointed. Food and service is always first class, and we cannot wait to visit again soon.

no papadoms extreme chilly couldn't consume the order i hereby complain and ask for refund back to my bank account yours truly vito de rosa PS ask is o like chilly or not in my food fk U

Food still lovely and hot upon delivery, food lovely and good fast service highly recommend 👍

The restaurant is really beautiful and food was excellent. The staff are really friendly and welcoming. I love to go frequently.

Amazing food and amazing service! At very great prices too

Really attentive staff and great food

We ordered delivery and it was really excellent!! The Byriani chicken is very well seasoned as well as the Tikka masala. We were disappointed with the Cheese Naan but the Keema Naan was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant

It was a heavy rainy evening. To get away from the rain we came into this restaurant and decided to order some food as we were getting hungry too. This restaurant was amazing, good food, brilliant service and good atmosphere. Would highly recommend.

This was the best Indian food I have ever eaten. In our time in London, this was the best restaurant we have been. The waiter was really kind and the price was reasonable and affordable. If we ever visit London again, we’ll eat in this restaurant.

The food was delicious and filling. The staff are very friendly and the atmosphere in was good, restaurant is clean 👌🏾

Came in late in the evening with friends following a few drinks. We were the last in the restaurant yet the staff still served us as patiently and courteously as if we were the first customers of the night. The food was excellent and I'll happily return!

Tender lamb. Great flavours. Every dish. Was a terrific surprise.

Food was really awesome and with great staff who were very friendly. My favourite is the Lamb Shank which was well cooked and Spicely hot.

Lovely meal and everyone very helpful. Food was good quality and authentic - spotless clean throughout

Outstanding food, amazing service! Will definitely be back!

The food quality is very good. The service is excellent as well. The price is very reasonable considering its location in central London.

Just love this place they never let you down!

Great food and service, portion sizes good and overall very enjoyable! Nice extra treat for my brothers birthday too! Much appreciated, thanks!

Great service, well prepared food. Naan to die for 😁

Good quality food served piping hot. Could be a little bit spicier

Excellent aussi bien repas que l'accueil... Pour une première expérience culinaire londonienne famille française comblée... On recommande

Great restaurant lovely food good service and great staff

Excellent food at an attractive price.

Super authentic Indian restaurant. Excellent food. The staff were even kind enough to cook us some favourite dishes not on the menu, and they were perfect. Nice to sit outside on a warm evening.

Fantastic place, great food and excellent service

Busy Indian, had takeaway food was delicious, recommended

Food here is always good. Never had anything that isn’t delicious and full of flavour.

Lamb Bhuna was delicious, super tender. Sag aloo was really good too. 3rd Time I’ve ordered from here and has been spot on every time.

Delicious food! Delivered early and arrived piping hot - would recommend.

Again, great as always and top food

Excellent food as always, delivered early as well, keep up the good work

This place has the BEST Indian food I’ve ever had. I flew into London, and before eating here, I wasn’t impressed with the food. I was so happy when my aunt and I decided to eat here. I initially ordered the butter chicken, but sent it back because it came sweet. The staff was super kind about it, and allowed me to exchange it for the Chicken Rezala. The Rezala was perfect, and the flavor was out of this world. The ambiance feels upscale, but it’s super relaxed at the same time. Did I mention, the food was inexpensive? The waitstaff even boxed my leftover’s for me! If I ever travel back to London, this will be a certain go to!

Really great food excellent service nice peaceful spot.

Best Indian food in London very underrated and is a big must try . Staff are amazing the food is fresh hot and delicious . Go give it a try

Food is usually amazing and ordered here many times, only today the tarka daal unfortunately smelt and tasted off. Hopefully just a one time thing!

Cibo buono e abbondante, consiglio lo stater papadam

Nice place, delisious food and big portions, friendly and helpful personal staff, they cooked for us non-spicy bariani with shrimps, even if it was not on the menu) I really appreciate it.

Thanks again for a lovely dinner. My go-to Indian restaurant. Never been let down. Very tasty meals!

Prompt delivery and food very tasty.

DONOT GO IF YOU ARE A PURE FOODIE AND IS LOOKING FOR GOOD ASIAN FOOD. Pathetic food and pathetic service. No presentation of food whatsoever. Spent around £50 for 2 dishes which were very bad in regards to taste and presentation. The cheese naan had no cheese and was overpriced at £3.25. Unprofessional waiters with extremely unprofessional behaviour. When asked about presentation and dish taste, they simply smiled away. Not recommend at all.

Lovely’s staff but unfortunately the veggie option lack flavour. No spices or heat, just sautéed. I queried this with the waiter who blamed the palette of the customer base. I would recommend have a conversation with the waiter before ordering you dishes.

Superb food, superb service and superb tastes. Staying close to Kings Cross, this is a fantastic place to come for an intimate and flavourful Indian meal. £20-30 pp and fantastic quality food. Recommend highly

Very, very good as always, would highly recommend, does not get much better

We have been visiting this restaurant since 2011 whenever we visit London. Amazing food and great friendly service from all of the staff. Highly recommended, great food and great value for money.

The food tasted awful but delivery time was fast.

Absolutely great food will definitely order again

Good food, reasonable prices, very poor Lighting.

Ordered popadoms but did not receive

The service was good, they accommodated us without reservations for an impromptu plan. The food was good. I hope they start serving some masala chai also.

Ottima accoglienza del personale. Cibo indiano squisito e curato. Ambiente semplice, pulito e tranquillo per pasto molto piacevole.

Best curry I’ve ever had by far and I’ve had a lot of curry’s!

First time eating indian food in a restaurant loved every bite. And brandy was a nice surprise ☺️ thank you. Definitely coming back ☺️

Dermot insisted we come back to this place, and I'm glad we did. The Cinnamon Tree is on the Western edge of the popular, trendy Exmouth Market strip, so is easy to overlook. I am squeamish about hot curries ( I am a wimp) but was perfectly happy here. There is a cool, formal feel inside, lots of blue, and the older waiters are polite and professional. They took notice of our wish for barely spiced dishes, and we loved our fish and chicken choices. And a flavoursome brinjal bhaji on the side. I've never been served a disappointing dish here. Desserts are a bit thin on the ground though.. Recommended for a quiet, civilised and tasty evening.

It was delicious! The staff were so friendly and the food was really good!

Very kind people, amazing food and excellent customer service -flawlessly attentive waiting staff and smashing mango juice!!! Will be returning back soon!

All a bit bland for me. None of the strong flavours I'd expect in an Indian restaurant. Chicken was dry.

Приємне місце, дуже швидкий і ввічливий персонал. Сподобались чисті, білосніжні скатертини, живі квіти у вазончику на столі. Їжа смачна, але ми поціновувачі індійської кухні і їли смачніше, це правда. Як комплімент приносять шоколад. В цілому враження дуже приємні і можу рекомендувати. Ціни середні.

Excellent food, very tasty, and delivered early, good work

Popped in for a quick dinner. Was very quiet but it meant very grateful and attentive service. Food was decent especially the paneer for the location and price, would visit again and support the local Indian curry house!

I got a call for a promotion but i don't even work here

The restaurant recently opened after covid and I have to say this was the most tasteless Indian food I've ever eaten. Definitely not appropriate for anyone from the subcontinent, it is too bland for anyone who is accustomed to real Indian flavours. The service wasn't bad, the staff were attentive - though they kept forgetting to offer either a plate or a glass to my 5 year old.

The food is absolutely wonderful, waiters are lovely and fast- white tablecloth service! Extremely clean, and very reasonable prices. They should be packed at all hours but somehow you can always get a table.

A lovely meal would definitely recommend. Service was great. Food was amazing and a varied menu to choose from.

Asked for extra spicy but didn't get that.

Fantastic food, superb service. I loved the whole experience. Thank you!

Never used the restaurant so unable to comment. Chops tasty, but could have been more tender. Delivery absolutely fine.

Lovely little restaraunt wity friendly and polite staff, Was recommended to myself by a friend and they did not disapoint

Really lovely food, highly recommended. +++

Food was really, really good. I also thought the prices were fair for the sizes.

Nice rendition of alugobi Masada and Masala daal. Requested and received very spicy tasty meals. Quick and courteous service.

Great taste of food for a good price. Service is good as well. Can recommend this place.

Best Indian restaurant since time ago 🙏

Always good food, drink and service here. Very tasty food!

Exceptional service, my only regret is we didn’t order the egg man desert. Next time!

Was really tasty! Will definitely be ordering again.

Incredible food always. Been going to this place for about 10 years and it never disappoints. Top curry in London for me.

delicious food and staff are very attentive! also gave a very warm welcome - just be sociable and the staff will be very nice. i had the mixed biryani and lentil soup which was delicious, chicken tikka with naan and salad which was so juicy and the chicken bhuna with rice which melted in my mouth.

Just what I needed. One of the few places open after 10
