Lovely food Lovely service from Urmi and Mahi Delicious biriani and vegetable dishes

I had a positive experience and were treated as a valued customer. The food was nice and the service was really excellent.. Mahi and Urmi was so kind . i really appreciate the way they treated us. Will visit their soon again

Urumi magi excellent service polite and a good experience

It was pretty amazing! Me and my friend walked down Bethnal Green Rd quite long , then we encountered beautiful forest green Victorian style tiles ! We entered and milion white flowers were attached to the ceiling, very pretty interior! Staff , especially Muhit and Mahi were so amazing ! We got some poppadoms free with sauses, then we ordered. Food was really well cooked and so fresh! I really recommend it!!!! Later on we were joined by our colleagues it was a very big group of us together! Poppadoms were given free to every single person/ table, it was amazing! Food arrived in covered brass pots, so cute! I loved it! Muhit was handing us tissues directly to each person and some even were brought take away boxes! He told me people don't know spices are good for us cause of Vitamin C- I didn't know it ! Interesting discovery ! So amazing !!! I was always confused when I walked past, as I couldn't understand what this place was. I am so happy I visited! Prices are really good, I am so happy this place is not overpriced ! The service staff, especially the waiters were so kind and professional ! Please go and visit , I walked past this place for so many years and was blind, instead I should have visited sooner! Go don't miss it! I highly recommend it!

Amazing customer service from Muhit. He was very polite and helpful. The food was impeccable and felt like I was eating authentic home cooked meals. We will definitely come back for future events. Thank you so much!

absolutely loved eating here with my family! the customer service was impeccable, name dropping muhit mahi as he was absolutely amazing! as someone from a bangladeshi heritage, i can confirm that the food here is 100% that of home, completely authentic. will definitely be coming back again in the future, great job! 💖

The curry and sides very good. Service was excellent our waiter was Muhit was very friendly would come back soon

Amazing restaurant. Staff is very nice and polite.

My sister’s wedding was at Desi Lounge last week. Everything went perfect. Food was delicious! All our guests spoke very highly of the food and had zero complaints. Staff are incredible, so polite and catered to all our needs. Will definitely be hosting all our future family events at Desi Lounge.

Desi Lounge in Bethnal Green is hidden in plain sight, walk pass it most times without noticing this gem, we had a small wedding party in the evening. The food was nice, especially the mutton curry, dhal and pilau rice. But the service and the staff went an extra mile to make everyone happy. There were ample parkings around the area in the evening times as well. Not disappointed at all.

It was a really good experience. Thank you Muhit. Very good place, comfortable for party.

Mr Muhit served really very well.

Our family event was made very memorable by Desi Lounge. The food and service was excellent. Staff were very attentive and friendly. Special thanks to Mahi, Muhit and Urmi for making our family event very special!

Had a smaal wedding ceremony. We had wonderful experience their. The food was delicious and the service was top class. Specially thanks to Mahi, Muhit and Urmi for making everything wonderful for us...

Went there as a group to welcome back the Umrah family members and were recieved with amazing hospitality and served with a personal touch. The food was surprisingly delicious, considering that Indian style food is usually what I eat at home, with decent fusions on the dishes and a good variety of beverages to choose from. There was a couple of other functions occuring but it did not disrupt our dine in experience and the staff done a decent job whilst catering for both the men and women's side, which was segregrated. Unfortunately was only able to take pictures of the starters as when the mains came, we all devoured it! I don't usually eat Indian style food in restaurents but will definitely be coming back to Desi Lounge! Highly recommend!

Thanks MUHIT and MAHI, it was really good ! The lamb was amazing

Very good food, very good service

Thank you so much for having us. Muhit was a fantastic host and the food was insanely good!! I ate so much and if I could eat more I would. Thank you Muhit for looking after us and making sure everything was ok. Would definitely come back!! Thank you again!!

been there so many times, all of their stuff’s are so nice and well behaved, they highly maintain hygiene n serve fascinating foods, if you wanna try authentic indian/bengali/south asian food you must try desi lounge. n special shoutout to zak sasa for his amazing hospitality. no doubt desi lounge is one of the best restaurant in east london.

The hosts at Desi Lounge were extremely hospitable. Created and amazing atmosphere for my sisters wedding. Highly would recommend for anyone looking for a low budget wedding. Great party overall.

Fantastic food, service and quality all the way. Deformed recommend.

Went on Thursday night for a work night out. The service was 5 star and we were a large group which is never easy. Staff were just amazing 😍 great portion sizes with a nice kick of spice, although the main was slightly oily. Decor is really nice and the place has a good ambience. Prices also quite reasonable. Will definitely be back!

Muhit provided excellent customer service and went out of his way to create a warm environment for my family.

When there with some mates and what can I say… If you want good food Go somewhere else. Nit sure how much experience they have in running a restaurant but from the one we had they got a lot to learn. Food was terrible… i think there Head chef is a a microwave

Lovely place, excellent service.Definitely will recomend. Quality food.

We threw my sister’s wedding party at desi lounge and it was outstanding. The venue is big open and spacious with loads of space. The staff were really friendly and attentive. The food was amazing and was presented impeccably. I had an amazing time and I highly recommend this venue to anyone looking ti create lasting memories for their big day.

We recently had a family wedding and it was wonderful. The service was great from all the staff, the food was amazing and we have a really good time. I look forward to having future events here.

Service terrible, one guy nearly knocked a glass off the table. There was flies all over the place. Not best for weddings.

Great Indian food. Muhit treated us with special care.

Nice food,service and a great atmosphere.

It was a great experience food was tasty , Staff Muhit Was great he served very good 😊

Great place for family gatherings. Staff Muhit was excellent. He was friendly & helpful. Food was good. Recommending everyone for sure. ✔️ ❤️

Great food. The chicken tikka starter had so much flavour and was so moist. Papadam were good nice selection of chutneys and the onion based one was freshly prepared by its quality. Mains was the Chef’s Special Jalfrezi chicken … again wonderful flavours and a good portion size with pulao and one chapati I was full! I am a large person so full means plenty. Staff were wonderful very helpful and caring.

Visited a few times absolutely excellent customer service and food is just amazing!! The Chef deffo has great skills, perfect place for partys and holding small events like party’s, birthday, dawats, engagement party, graduation party etc. staff are very friendly great cutomer service

Been coming regularly for the past year, Muhit has always looked after us perfectly and made us feel at home!

Amazing ambience and lovely staff. Been coming here for over a year now, and each time the food doesn’t fail. Special thanks to all the staff for being so hostable, and especially Muhit bhai who provides amazing customer service every time and makes us feel comfortable. If you’ve not come here before, you should defo try it! 10/10 everything!!

Muhit was a wonderful host and the food was amazing!! Very good value for money.

Amazing food and great service. The food was 10/10 along with the service. The host Shopon Miah was excellent, didn't disappoint with his hospitality.

The food was fabulous and the service 5 star

Alam and Muhit has giving us an amazing service. Good was great!

I held my graduation party here and they did an amazing job. The service and in particular, a worker called muhit was a great help and very friendly! I communicated with shopon who was very accommodating to my requests. The guests loved the party, the food and the atmosphere! Would definitely recommend!

Great atmosphere and good. The staff were really nice and friendly and made us feel welcome. I will be back again soon,thank you for a pleasant evening.

Muhit bhai. Thank you for your hospitality. We really enjoy talking to you and your service. Will visit again.

I went there for q wedding reception and was very disappointed with the service and the food. The food was served very late, around 3pm instead of 1-2pm. When it was served, there wasn't enough food for everyone at the table and it started with salad only, while we were all very hungry. The waiters weren't doing their job of ensuring there was enough food and when we asked for more naan, we were given what was left from the other table. Overall extremely disappointed and I would not go there again. I definitely don't recommend it.

Held a birthday party at Desi Lounge and we were allocated to be downstairs but on the week of the party they had informed us about a change in seating area and we were moved to the entrance area due to work going on. On the day of the event, I noticed that other people from another event were going downstairs. We also had a backdrop and asked them to create space where possible, but very little was given…since we only had the entrance area our guests had to sit uncomfortably during the whole evening. Other than that the food was okay but didn’t impress me to the standard I thought it’d be at. We was also told verbally by the manager that we would be given “special” rice but instead we was given just plain rice. Also, whilst our guests were taking pictures the table was cleared and made space for people from another event and our guests couldn’t sit back down. In short, there wasn’t enough space due to many events going on at the same time and organisation wasn’t great.

The person Mr Muhit who looked after us in our dining, superb and fantastic , first class service, foods are delicious and nice environments as well.

Had a party here, service was great food was lovely, server muhit was a great help and was lovely throughout the night

Came here for dinner and the food was great and Muhit, Mahi, and Urmi were very kind.

Amazing vegetable biryani! We come here all the time and receive great service from Muhit, Mahi and Urmi. Staff are lovely and friendly and always look after us.

Good saag paneer and great service from Muhit

Muhit provided excellent service, very friendly and good was very nice. Great decor and good catch up with friends we enjoyed it

I like the food very nice Service excellent Beautiful Restaurant

I was served by Muhit and he was a very talented, freindly and entertaining waiter. The food was great and atmosphere was very nice.

We had a really nice dinner! Muhit was great as really a waiter, really helpful and gave us advice to get the right dishes! Definitely, we will come back! Thanks!

Muhit serves me and I found very polite nice environment fell good. Good food.

The food was terrible. No fresh air inside. it's too hot inside

Lovely friendly service by Urmi and Muhit. Food was delish, highly recommend!

Top Restaurant. Really delicious food and very good service from Muhit. Looking forward to the next visit.

Brilliant service by Urmi ,Muhit and Mahi food is 10/10 recommended mix grill

It was a really nice place! We got here spontaneously but we absolutely loved it! Muhit was our waiter and he was so kind and fulfilled all our wishes!

I had a really nice time. Mr. Muhit and Mr. Mahi we’re really attentive and proactive. The food was delicious and the mango lassi a must try of course. ☺️😄👍

1 star on Food Standards Agency - be careful

Food was so good what ever you had it’s was best and also muhit take care of us. Good service ❤️❤️coming back again thank you .

Nice Indian restaurants and have come back for multiple times

Customer service was excellent beautiful atmosphere the food was nice but it had a lot of masalas which ruined the whole taste of kebabs apart from that everything else was on point would highly recommended

Would have been better if the AC was colder as it got hotter through the night as more people turned up.

Very friendly and really nice food.

Amazing experience at this restaurant the food was very tasty and plentiful. Atmosphere was lively and enjoyable. However, the service was exceptional and staff especially Muhit were very attentive and nothing was too much for him. Thank you Muhit 😊

Lovely food and great service, especially from Muhit 👌

The service was amazing the staff was very attentive and professional amd food was DELICIOUS I will definitely recommend to family and friends. THANK TO MUHIT who delivered excellent customer service. Will be back very soon

Nice food with attentive service

Rude staff. When a potential customer expressed his willingness to spend money at the restaurant and wanted to use the restroom, the staff said there were no seats left and refused to let him use the restroom. Come on, you are a restaurant open until the evening, but you say you have no seats left?

Desi Lounge was fabulous it was the best Indian restaurant I have been to. The food was top notch and tasty and staff were attentive and lovely. I would definitely come back. I give this place 11 out of 10.

The Best food ever in this place the food is great the service is good 2

Very good food and service from Muhit

The food is nice but nothing special. And almost no vegetarian options! The waiter Muhid didn’t quite get our order correctly but he was lovely and attentive. The atmosphere was somewhat flat.

The food at this restaurant was decent, but the service left much to be desired. I had to ask the waiters more than twice for the same request, which was quite frustrating. Major improvements in service are needed. Other than that was a lovely venue to be in with family!

Absolutely brilliant local place. Local restaurants generally don’t have a good reputation but this place is a must try if you want good Indian food and excellent grills as well. The servers Muhit and Mahi are really helpful and they explain the menu really well.

Came here randomly, because my kid needed to eat and we were nearby. I was pleasantly surprised, tarka daal was delicious, service was great and the staff were exceptionally kind to my son. Thank you

Excellent, delicious food, friendly staff.

Lovely meal! Simple, authentic menu, tasty dishes. Very friendly service from Mahi and Muhit :)

We popped in as a last minute decision and for a quick bite to eat. Very well surprised. The mixed grill was well made, especially the chicken, which I normally find too dry in most restaurants. Mr Muhit was also very helpful from the moment we walked in, providing information on dishes, checking on condiment and additional requirements.

Wonderful food, wonderful service

Delicious, I have no complaints. I have never eaten something so good and the plates are generous. Superb service thanks to Mahi and Urmi for taking care of me

Amazing food and service! We were served by Mahi, Muhit and Unmi all who were friendly and have great recommendation.

Great atmosphere amazing food and lovely staff

The food was so delicious and portions were generous - excellent service too! We had the chicken samosa and Buffalo wings for starters, followed by chicken bhuna, saag chana and binding chaji. It was all delicious, I could eat this garlic naan every day 🙏

Food was really nice and service was so good, very kind staff. Would love to come back anytime.

Very generous quantity and thanks to mushit and Mahi for their kindness

Very good service food is very tasty thank you Mahi and Muhit for your attention

The food was really nice. The staff are very friendly and the service is amazing. Thank you.

Best bite I’ve had in the UK! I traveled all the way from America for my first time in Britain and this restaurant made the experience a 10/10. The owner and staff are incredibly welcoming and warm and the food nowhere short of amazing. Went back twice during my stay :)

I cant say ive tried the food cause i havent, when you see a Rat as big as dog come out the main front doors thats more than enough to put you off for life!

Had a great meal here, really delicious. Mahi was great by catering to my dietary requirements, which was appreciated. Staff friendly. Thank you! Would come again.

Lovely place, the staff were so nice and the food was amazing

This was a really nice place. The food tasted fresh, the service was extremely kind and it was clean. We got recommended to come here and it was good. But the tea was phenonenal, it was my favourite out of the meal. We do recommend this place. We recommend the daal, biryani and the mint ginger tea and the price was great for the food and service we got. Recommend for tired people who want to eat a home cooked meal after a long day.

Stumbled upon Desi Lounge while looking for Indian food in Bethnal Green, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with this chance discovery, from the Shashlik Chicken to the the chutney, from the Garlic Naan to the Mango Lassi, everything was cooked to perfection and emanating with flavour I must return to try out the rest of the menu.

Very nice and delicious food. Specially Sadika served excellent

Sadika’s service was so nice..we are really happy

Monisha, Sadika , urmi, muhit and mahi, amazing service and excellent experience! Thank you all for the amazing experience
