Flavours Restaurant in Barnet

Run of the mill eating place off a busy road. The outside seating area needs tending to & cleaning up. 2.5.24 Now under new East European owners & called - The Atmosphere Restaurant.

Very bad, it doesn't even exist! Don't go there, just waisting time

The chicken was a bit too oily, The plase was small it could be bigger

We went with the chancellor's offer. The food and service was good. We went with a group. The only quibble was the dessert menu is a bit short. Otherwise brilliant, this is the second time we have visited and have been happy on both occasions.

Extremely noisy & expensive. End up shouting and losing your voice during meal with friends. Food was substandard & served very late. Place is small and overcrowded. No parking unless you want ticket. There are much better places to go to.

I think this is the best Asian food I have ever had. The staff were amazing and I can't express how lovely the food was. You must try the massala chips, wonderful. We could not stop eating and ordered a second portion of the massala chips.. The restaurant was comfortable and the staff did not rush us. A great dining experience.

The food was good but everything else was substandard. Extremely noisy place with very loud music playing (as there was a party going on) as well as cricket on at the same time! This resulted in what can only be described as noise. On top of this there were balloons popping from the party and cheering for the cricket. If you want to speak to anyone, rather than shout, this is not the place for you. Service was very poor; we had to wait a long time before anyone even noticed us; we were not offered a drinks menu and initially only given 3 menus when we were a table of 4; the waitress had no idea what juices were offered; the waiter said they had run out of spoons so we had to dish out curry dishes with a fork! The worst thing was that we ordered 4 naans but they gave us half a naan less and tried to cheat us! Overall it was a real disappointment.

I have eaten here a couple times before and the food is lovely. I thought I’d bring my mum for her birthday today. Online it show’s opening hours start at 3pm. We arrived at 4.30pm and the it was closed. I tried to call the restaurant and they cut me off. I was disappointed as I had to make last minute plans to take my mum out for her birthday meal spoiling the day

Sadly has deteriorated recently. Huge price hike on many items, circa 30 percent! Plus cancelled orders and appear to be deliberately hanging up when calling through. Real shame, was our favourite Indian restaurant but now we are on the search for another. Hopefully they can turn things around.

I have been to flavours many times but new owners have taken over and the service has gone down 👎 Hil there was no beer on tap at all only bottle Beers and Budweiser only and this was on a Saturday evening

Food is really tasty but slightly more expensive then expected considering service and atmosphere.

I’m 54 and I reckon I’ve been out to dinner at least 3000 times . My memory is fantastic ,so I can easily say that was the worst ‘dinner’ I’ve ever been out for ! Served by a waiter wearing a Puffa Jacket .Told they’re having a deep clean in the kitchen so they’re closing early . Waited 45 mins for a Mixed Grill starter . Which was cold and the Chicken Red raw . On complaining the Manager told me that he tried the Chicken and although it didn’t look cooked,it was ! If this place is still open in a year .I’ll be gobsmacked . Avoid at all costs .

A very vibrant place. I was there on a Saturday evening. They offered me a bigger table as it was quite crowded, with the agreement that I will leave in an hour or so, agreeable given the time I had visited. Even through the crowd the people kept checking in if everything was okay and if I needed anything. Chicken 65 (Saucy) was really good. Although the Chicken Tikka was a bit different from my expectations, but it was good. Personally for me it did not suit. Good music, excellent staff and very good service. Will visit again soon to try out their other dishes. Thank you Flavours.

Excellent service, wonderful staff)

Had my mum's 50th family meal here Food was great but the service was appalling, wouldn't recommend purely on this. So many things just went wrong/they kept arguing with us. Ruined the evening for sure. Also they say they have live music on Saturdays but the DJ doesn't start till gone 10pm when it's literally empty and the place shuts at 11pm...

Visited this place for my wife's 50th birthday surprise meal. 1. Booking : The booking was made in advance for 40 people. Unfortunately not everyone could attend. MY son rang the restaurant on the morning of the event to try and negotiate a reduction in numbers but was told they would speak to manager and make an adjustment on the night. I did not expect a full adjustment but some adjustment. Sadly nothing was forthcoming. 2. Food : The food was excellent. My guests enjoyed it. 3. Service : The service was poor given the amount of money being spent. There was not prior conversation on how things were going to work or being set up. And I found that my wife and guest had to help out on a couple of things. There was very little communication and the staff did nt look to happy to be there. 4. Drinks : the drinks were good a guests seemed content. 5. Overall : I think overall was ok but I would definately would have appreciated some adjustment on the price. The meals had not been cooked earlier in the day so cannot use that, as an excuse and as I said, I was not expecting a big adjustment. Thank you. I would recommend to others, the food but would be specific on other points I have mentioned to get clarity.

Delicious Food with all type of Drink 🍷 Enjoying Dance with nice sound system and with Dancing Light 🙂 Great Place to Visit for Celebration and Party 🥂

Amazing, amazing surface, amazing food. We were a particularly difficult group, large group of 17 of us, all with complicated needs, I was overwhelmed and they were my family so god knows how they felt. But they were calm, attended to our needs, respectful when they really could have left us too it. The food was incredible, quality and quantity both great, to say we were full is an understatement, we had to take food home! Always a good sign! Would definitely go again, maybe not with my whole family!

Great Asian flavours with a very hospitable manager. Phoned up to make a reservation for our anniversary as it can be fully booked on Saturdays. Ordered the food (Butter chicken and Lamb Rogan Ghost) which was absolutely superb, my gf and I were so satisfyingly full from the meal - the flavours were immense and depthful, definitely not a boring bland curry at all so I highly recommend it. Then when our plates were taken away we were brought Halva on the house as the manager remembered it was our anniversary! It was fantastic, first time I've had it (condensed milk and carrot with nuts & more), but I loved it - sadly we were too full from the dinner to really enjoy it, but the thought was very kind, and because of this, Flavours gets 5/5 from us. If you're looking for a good Indian then you should probably go elsewhere, because this is a fantastic one.

Very polite service great food definitely come again

beautiful staff aman was wicked excellent always will.come back here great food nice atmosphere 👌 always love to come here

Great to have this place nearby! The staff was lovely, great food and drinks too. Recommend the butter chicken and chilli prawns. Will be back for the legendary biryani!

Wow! Came here for valentine dinner and was so happy. The staff made so much effort, the food was exceptional and the even gave us complimentary dessert!! Will always come back here. Our 3 year old loved it too!

A bar/restaurant that I can honestly say caters to all is a rarity in the area so for anyone looking for excellent food, service and atmosphere. I would certainly recommend. The cocktails are amazing, as are the mocktails. If you’re there for food, one of our favourites is the chilli paneer and the lamb bhuna curry. The management and staff go above and beyond to make sure your experience is as amazing on your first visit as it is on your every visit. 100% recommend

Attended NYE celebrations for the first time at Flavours with friends and was very disappointed. The food was average with Veg/Non Veg but the DJ/atmosphere was not the best. Both resident DJ's were repeating the same songs and couldn't mix. I would not recommend to anyone who is looking for somewhere with good music!!

Came here for New years celebration yesterday (31.12.21), the music however was absolutely awful. Dj sach and dj screem kept playing the same songs (3-4 times) without mixing for a long time. It was repetitive and definitely not worth the time/money spent. Would highly not recommend coming here if you are into your music and want a good night. The crowd/ atmosphere was atrocious and I cannot emphasise enough how bad the music was. Being a vulnerable female with female friends, I felt uncomfortable coming here as the dj/ men on the dance floor were too forward. To sum my experience up, waste of time and will never come back again!

Spacious restaurant and tasty food with friendly staff. A nice place for family meal

I was there for a Christmas party No one was asked to show a covid proof

I went there for drinks - the tables were dirty, floors hadn’t been swept or cleaned. Cocktails were terrible - nothing how they look online, tasted watered down, smaller glasses then advertised. Quarter of the glass was ice and a quarter was a foam/froth. Very disappointing.

Good quality food reasonably priced. Clean environment. Staff willing to hear customer like my phone charger

Good evening out with live music band

Drink eat and enjoy with friendly staff and locals. A place you must visit.

Got a takeaway. Yummy food both the paneer and mogo. For some reason they only gave us 10 small crispy bhajias though in bag which I thought was a bit tight for the price. Only reason I didn't give a 5* rating.

We had a great double date here a few weeks back. food and cocktails were lovely and service was exceptional. We were told they have a Dj nights on weekends and will definitely will be going back to check it out.

Amazing place, great music with amazing DJ, great vibes

Beautiful inside, exceptionally clean inc the toilets. Extensive menu and reasonably priced. A pint of Carlsberg is £3.50 which considering the decor and size of the place and being a restaurant is amazing and it is the same price throughout the whole week at whatever time, no happy hour with those prices Staff are very friendly and polite.

Not the best Indian in the area, some dishes were hit and miss. Our highlights were the chicken 65, butter chicken, butter naan & the egg fried rice. Would most likely visit again, but would order less.

This company have taken my payment with receiving any items of food!! And are refusing to refund payment!!

This is a good place with a mix of all crowds. Average priced drinks and could go with a group of friends

Enjoyed watching the foot ball there. Great crowd

Very nice venue for Indian music and party..

Food amazing, service 10/10... had a great time would definitely recommend to all for a lovely time with friends and family or even just a quick drink 🍸

Been here 4 times now, today's experience was very poor. I came with wife and two young children at about 8pm. Understaffed (2 waiters), something about the main chef not being there and low kitchen staff. Issues: - 4x dirty glasses, had them replaced only for the next set to look smudgy and a bogey lookalike in another one which I showed to the waiter - Poppadoms (no mango chutneys, no little freshly cut onion bits, only two plastic bottles of mint yogurt and chilli sauce - reminded me of one of the low value chicken burger joints) - Had to ask for the coke 3 times, water twice, poppadoms twice - Kids meals came after about 30 min, starters at 40 min and main meals after about an hour. They forgot two main dishes (which we then cancelled as we lost our appetite at that stage). - Rice came out cold had they gave us a fresh one and whilst the three grilled king prawn were ok, for £12.95 we expected better value for money (most decent restaurants would give 5-6 pieces) Normally the food here is ok, but poor service today with lots of other customers complaining and even acknowledged by the waiters. Guess this was one of their bad days.....it happens. Suggestion to the owner: if you know you have a full restaurant and you're understaffed, be honest with customers walking off the street with children and let them know that food will take 1 hour so we don't have irritated kids at 9pm waiting for food.......and you avoid negative reviews like this one. Best of luck.

Fabulous good, great beer... Friendly lovely staff... We had a great time with family here

Food is excellent and staffs are polite. Good service, definitely recommend.

This restaurant has left the best impressions! Great service, delicious dishes, beautiful presentation and great cocktails!! I just keep going back!

Great night out with the D.J and we were asked to stay with our bubble group, which felt safer. Great food , service and cocktails 🍸

Great food on offer here with wonderful friendly service provided

Seedy characters but lovely venue

Had a post-Covid lockdown work outing here. The food is exceptionally good (just the poppadoms should be free or cheaper, and the dips in squeeze bottles are weird) but the venue itself is also outstanding. The portions are plentiful, reasonably priced, delicious, and there is an excellent vegan range. The mocktail I had was nice and my colleagues very much enjoyed all manner of the alcohol on offer, particularly the cocktails. The lady going around selling shots was for me personally quite irritating and pushy, trying to shame people into buying rounds but my colleagues did not appear to massively mind her and bartered with her. The atmosphere was actually pleasantly enjoyable (I'm not a socialiser at all and have a variety of anxiety disorders as you can probably tell from this review) but I felt comfortable at all times the DJ is a great touch and played a very good, varied and popular set. Will definitely go again in a variety of contexts.

WOW WOW WOW. A gem of a place in the heart of Burnt Oak and one that serves the finest drinks, and accompanied with the finest Indian infused food. Whether you pop in for a quick drink and a snack, or spending an evening downing cocktails and a tucking into a lovely meal from the a la carte menu, the service afforded to you by the staff as well as the owners will leave you wanting to come back here over and over again.

Good ambiance. Best hospitality. 10/10

Was visiting my mother for the Easter weekend so we decided to order a takeaway and thought we would try this place.Food was generally average. The lamb biryani could have been a lovely dish if it had more lamb. The rice was fragrant and served with raita as it should be. But for the price, you would expect to have a better balance of meat to rice.The chilli chicken needed more flavour from the soya sauce coming through and some more heat. Tasted a bit bland.The chicken tikka was fine but again nothing stand out.The lamb rogan gosht could have been any generic lamb curry from any Indian / Bangladeshi take away. There was nothing special or distinct about it.The food at this place (other then the biryani) was very average, and considering what they are charging for a place in Burnt Oak, really not good enough.Pity!

Nice atmosphere, good customer service,nice food.

Extremely kind and excellent customer service. I ordered a meal for my brother who is a patient at the hospital and they went above and beyond to make sure he could have a decent meal on his birthday. Its the personal touches that make this an excellent restaurant like making sure they let me know when it arrived and to wish him a happy birthday.

Extremely disappointed it's during lockdown so we can eat in. So we asked to use our Groupon for takeaway instead apparently not possible. So I have to go through the inconvenience to get refund from Groupon, I am not impressed with this place at all.

Curry contains were not labelled Rice was burnt an stuck together What a disappointment

Wow. Booked here after a friend recommended and couldn’t believe how delicious it was! Definitely some of the highest standard food we have had on the island, and by far the best Indian food. Menu is clear so easy use for vegans/allergens. This will be our go to from now on. Staff excellent couldn’t be any better

Decent cocktails, but no twist. Obviously not the place where you will take your friends.

Simply amazing. Hits the spot every time I have ordered. Fantastic service when ever I have used the app and everyone you speak with is pleasant. Many thanks to our driver, who delivered our food on time and with a big smile :) thanks Flavours for continually delivering quality.

If you're ordering a korma because you don't like spice go elsewhere this is not a typical mild korma, it's so spicey I can't eat it. The food also arrived luke-warm which was disappointing sadly :( My partner enjoyed his Chicken bhuna and naan though.

The COVID compliance was shocking. We did not see staff sanitising tables in between customers. Although staff were wearing masks.We ordered 2 Long Island ice teas. There were certainly lacking the alcohol and were very sweet. When raised this with the waiter we were told he had put 50ml of the spirits and next time it will be better. It was obvious that these were not made correctly!We ordered the mixed grill- the sheek kebabs were awful! They were cold and hard, so we raised this with the manager and he apologised and replaced them. The new plate came and this time the kebabs were warm however still hard and chewy. They were not freshly made! We sent these back and the manager spoke to the chef and confirmed it was an error On their part. The wings, tikka and chops were very nice.We decided not to order mains.Staff were great, the manager gave a discount due to the issues raised however would have preferred decent cocktails and food I would not recommend this place as cocktails are watered down and the food is mediocre.

Amazing curry, and lovely starters! Staffs were attentive and willing to help, made some great recommendations for us (it was our first visit). Chilli tofu was tasty and crispy! Curry was flavourful, lots of herbs/spices, lovely aroma. And they followed the social distancing guidance! All staffs were face masks.

Food was really poor. The kebabs smelt OFF, had stomach cramps through the night

The manager never got back to me in regards to conducting a party there. Opened much much later than advertised opening hours

First time here and we quite liked the ambient and the professional service. The food is really nice, quite big portions and very tasty. We were disappointed to see that they serve the famous GU cheese cake instead of something more special. I understand that desserts are not their speciality but they could have done better in this regard. Maybe it was due to safety reasons as well, who knows. We might visit the place again but will stick with food only.

Lovely bar/restaurant. Service is surprising top notch. One of the best I've experienced recently. Waiter did not too much or too little. Always had a smile. Approached us when needed. Perfect! Free was okay. They accepted tastecard which is FANTASTIC!! :) HIGHLY recommend this place.

The food was just awful.. Crispy corn wasn't crispy.. Paneer potli were little bags of heaven.. Everything else we ordered was either undercooked or cooked from frozen so tasted absolutely terrible.. I don't know if the chef was just having an off day but it put us off Flavours for good!

Great service, amazing food. Best chicken wings in the area

Our visit was early evening about 6pm during Eat Out to Help Out week.There were only 2 of us and I could see several tables were booked and times indicated-mostly after 7.30pm onwards. We requested if we could sit at a table for four to allow us more room for dishes and drinks. This was declined even though we assured them we would be finished by 7pm. Having visited previously it is extremely tight on the small square table for 2 place inconveniently in the middle with a high flow rate of people coming and going,Having visited before we knew exactly what we wanted. Food came promptly. Waiters were not busy and nobody enquired if there was anthing we needed and I had to should or raise my hand on several occassions to gain their attention.Disappointed. Got the impression that attention and priority is given to larger groups.

The food here is truly excellent. We have tried many different starters (their Indo-Chinese inspired ones are especially nice) and curries and they were all loaded with flavours. I also love that they took my request for extra spice seriously and gave me delicious dishes carrying just the perfect kick of hotness I wanted! Throughout the dinner, they kept checking up on us so we could ask them for anything we needed. Very professional and caring service and wonderful food with very reasonable price settings on great tasting drinks. Can't fault them on anything!

Brilliant food and service!! Tried out a new place and was thoroughly surprised at the quality of food and quantity. The waiters are really friendly, will be back again!

Shivam....thank you so much for fit in in short notice ..we tried so many places to book table even though u were fully booked you tried to fit in in 10 minutes..excellent food as always ..seeing you roaming around all tables asking everyone for food and help really cant see such incredible services in this time ..we would highly recommend flavoured and his staff.. Thank you we had lovely evening....God bless.

dead food, shabby environment, toilets are always a mess and so close to kitchen entrance! drinks are over priced and watery?!?! smelly venue

I was really impressed by the food! Best Indian I’ve had. The flavours are amazing! Perfect name for the restaurant. There’s so much depth and well balanced. Just the right amount of heat. The wings are so moorish! Try the chicken lollipop and tandoori wings! Biryanis was the best I’ve had! So flavoursome! Amazing naans!! Try garlic naans with lamb keema! Peshwari naan was so nice too!! I’ll be back again for sure. One feedback I’ve got, should change the plates! Doesn’t match the quality of the food, doesn’t do it justice.

Tasty food with excellent ambience and friendly staff members. The food took a bit longer to be served, but staff kept us well informed about this, which was a good touch.

Be aware, this restuarant Does Not stick to the safety measures recommended by the government, all staff do not have or wear PPE, no plastic or perspex dividers at the tables or at bar, no signage or social distancing. Local council go and check it out as this how the virus spreads.

Honestly, quite possibly the worst Indian restaurant I've been to (in this area) in a very long time. I used to eat here on a regular basis before the new owners turned it into a place that I would only wish upon my worst enemy/mother-in-law! The menu here reflects the establishment's need to emulate dishes served by the likes of nearby Everest and Spice Rack, but misses by a mile in the taste department. Our group had ordered a selection of veg and non-veg starters and found that every dish we tried just seemed to lack a lot of "something" in the taste department. Fortunately for us, we did not order the main course at the same time as the starters (Phew....dodged a bullet there!!) On a 'plus' note, all dishes ordered that night came to our table barely warm, so we were able to eat straight away and leave as quickly as possible. On top of a hugely disappointing meal, the service offered here is atrocious. The staff all seemed to be hovering around the bar aimlessly with little to no attention being paid to the dining area. The highlight of my evening was a double whiskey and coke and a kebab immediately after escaping this rotten place. P.s. I only gave it one star as there is no option for less

Lost my jumper how is that possible with security

Amazing cocktails and food! Staff were very attentive and service was really good. Would highly recommend and will definitely be coming back!

Good food and great service!! Thank you

Food was amazing will definitely be coming back again and would highly recommend to anyone. Thanks Neil and team for eveything.

Below average food choice and taste for vegetarians

Was ok, but the things that comes with poppadoms are in squeezy bottles and.a bit rancid. Also I asked for my food to be mild (usually like a bit of a kick but couldn't for health reasons) and was really spicy. Lastly, starters came with mains and it took 45 minutes. Having said this, the actual curries were nice.

food and presentation have changed..what's happening?

Nice kebab and curry. Recommended by my Indian friend, can't fault it.

Amazing food. Music on Friday night good.

Very creative cocktails, tasty and good sized portion food, great service

Delicious food and amazing service, have recommended Flavours to many of my friends

Very nice venue, staff are brilliant and the food is delicious. Has a good menu selection for Veg

Decent food. However found the music was too loud in the evenings.

Haven't been here for a good few years. Came for a friend's birthday... Drinks were flowing slowly, the bar staff were good but not as efficient and therefore didn't drink as much. Apart from that music was good and towards 11pm the choonz kicked in and the ambience changed dramatically for the good. Mixed crowd... I saw some seniors and also some heroes. Security was on point too. Would definitely recommend

First visit with this ownership and what can I say, first the service was excellent, staff are very friendly and even add a conversation with the owner. Food was also lovely. A place to definitely to try.

Really enjoy the food here, service is great. Had a meal with my partner here and was extremely impressed so i went back with my whole family!

Toilets are dirty,the service is poor and everithing inside there looks like needs to be refurbished

Went here via group on deal 50% off. The service was good. The food not so good. The mixed grill was not fresh (microwaved). The nan was fresh. The butter chicken sauce was out of a jar. Chilli mogo was very good. Worst thing was alot of the food was cold. Even at 50% off I would not be going back here again. At 50% off it actually works out to be your standard local rate food. So I dont know how anybody would even consider paying the full price.

Had food here last night after looking for a local Indian restaurant. When I first arrived I noted that it's both a bar and a restaurant with large tv screens everywhere.At first I didn't think it would be to my liking but I was wrong. It has a great ambience and the service was exceptional. Thanks to our waitress Fiza, the visit was great! And the food was incredible! First visit but will definitely be back.

Food is delicious, it never disappoints

We went there as a family and the waiters took the order.. It took them over 45mins to get 3 dishes that we had ordered. There were kids who were getting uneasy with such a long wait. The restaurant wasnt even very crowded but still no reason why it took so long. While that wasnt sufficient I asked the waiter to get the manager to come and talk to us but even that didnt happen.Finally when the food came inspite of informing the waiters number of times not to make the food spicy the Kids Paneer deal that we ordered was extremely spicy and we had to send it back. Kids were already hungry and after seeing food come to the table which they cannot consume it was all the more pathetic.Asked them to change it they went back and changed the curry which again didnt seem fresh so not sure what they did. Finally we had to eat that with the cold rice and Naan that came earlier.Overall a pathetic experience and dont think the manager/owner cares about their customers. May be they are interested only if you order expensive drinks when you come to eat at their restaurant which clearly is an awfull customer service.

Food was good but the lamb was over done
