Gufaa in Islington

The place is well appointed and had nice Indian music playing in the background. The staff were friendly and attentive. Menu had loads of choice and it arrived promptly and was beautifully served. Very reasonable prices too. I would go again

Fuimos a Gufaa por segunda vez el sábado por la noche y una vez más la comida y el servicio era excelente; menú variado y para todos los gustos. maravillosamente comida picante y no con la dureza que a veces encuentras con cocina india.

Comimos aquí en 2013 abril, el servicio era agradable y la comida era genial. Había una variada selección de diferentes platos y optamos por los 3 platos por £12.95 , qué ganga! La comida era muy sabroso. Estábamos allí temprano alrededor de las 6 pm y el lugar estaba vacío ... una pena porque era tan bueno.

Mi compañero y yo comimos aquí la noche pasada del 24/3/13 y reservamos a última hora muy tarde por la noche a las 22 h, así que éramos los únicos dos personas en el restaurante por el tiempo que habíamos pedido. La comida fue bastante rápido y me gustó mucho, y normalmente no disfrutar de la cocina india. Yo estaba en general muy impresionado hasta justo antes de salir me decidí a usar el baño. podrían haber hecho con una buena limpia y una actualización! La pared azulejos en las mujeres parecía sucio aunque el inodoro se veía bien no fue flushing muy bien y en mi opinión sería necesario reemplazar. que sin embargo era mi único problema. El restaurante en sí era bastante bien decorado y presentado y el personal era amable y atento.

Nuevo en la zona y tenía un Scout rápido por encontrar un lugar para un curry. Vimos Gufaa y parecía bastante lleno, así que pensamos que esta es una buena señal. Qué equivocados.

Como todas estas historias comenzar, debería haber leído las críticas primero. Como yo estaba sentado, me preguntaron si quería popadoms. Sí, por favor. Mi pedido es tomada - es un plato 4 comida, entrada, plato principal, arroz,y,postre. También, té verde por favor. 15 minutos más tarde, no popadoms, no té. Me pregunto si mi comida viene cualquier momento pronto, y popadoms y té son traídos. La taza de té es algo que pudiera ser utilizado para expresso disparos dobles, y la taza de azúcar trajo (para el té verde!) tiene más azúcar que la taza de té con té. En otros 10 minutos, la comida es trajo - dado que mis expectativas en este punto fueron en el sótano, que estaba bien, un poco soso, pero he tenido mucho peor. Yo no te molestes con el postre, que es simplemente helado y pedir la factura. El camarero no te molestes en preguntar si quiero postre tampoco. El proyecto de ley tiene un 12,5 % consejo discrecional, por supuesto. Como me saque mi tarjeta de débito, soy me dijeron que, por desgracia, la máquina está roto. Pero no tengo dinero en efectivo? Hay una máquina fuera, señor. Como he puesto en el viento en cola para la máquina de efectivo, i reflexionar sobre paseando. Por desgracia, la cola avanza por rápido, y no puedo llevar yo mismo. yo les pague en efectivo, sans la propina.

Entramos por casualidad, pero tanto el servicio, la calidad y variedad de la comida y sobre todo, el magnífico sabor y autenticidad de los platos hizo que este fuese desde entonces uno de nuestros restaurantes favoritos de Londres. Cada vez que volvemos a la City, cenamos en Gufaa. Excelente !! Y el precio es magnífico, nada caro.

Desperate disappointed with this kip. Wish I'd read the tripadvisor reviews first. It was appalling. Seriously expensive and honestly, the quality was less than you'd get out of an uncle ben's jar of curry sauce. Small, mean, tasteless portions. Rubbish wine, awful service. Starters were cold. My madras was very mild, bland and I suspect straight out of a jar. The chicken was awful - massively bulked up with water.What made the night even worse was we asked the waiter where would we get a taxi to the west end, he said he'd sort it. Next thing a relative of his pulls up outside. Stupidly, we got in even though it was clearly unlicenced. Queue comical confusion, god no, don't know where west end is. He started driving the wrong direction. I pulled out the trusty iphone and showed him he was driving further away, suddenly his sense of direction returned.Imagine being conned twice - a dreadful filthy restaurant and a con artist taximan. For shame.

We have been through all sorts of places and experiences. But this one has got to be the worst. The food, nothing special. The near-abuse from waiters, and manager, unprecedented. The bill, quite large. AVOID!

The only thing that was acceptable was the nan. Overpriced low quality wine. Clean tableclothes;) to write something positive. Why do people who are not interested in food open restaurants I have no idea.

Visitamos Gufaa anoche. No puedo undestand donde todos estos comentarios negativos han venido desde. tuvimos una experiencia maravillosa. La comida era de verdad fantástico. Un poco caro, pero ¿qué se puede esperar, se basa en una zona exclusiva. El servicio era insuperable, magnífica. Por último, no se fuera a ser críticas negativas aquí. Creo que algunas personas sólo ven a quejarse, cuando realmente lo que debería haber sido dirigida al gerente para resolver. establecimiento genial

Dopo una cena in questo ristorante non condivido le opinioni pessime qui riportate. C'è una grande varietà di piatti, quello che abbiamo scelto noi era tutto buono anche se non c'era nessun piatto particolare. Le porzioni non abbondanti ma i prezzi sono in linea con quelli del centro di Londra, anzi forse un po' più bassi. Il servizio è stato sufficiente, un cameriere parlava molto poco l'inglese ma in qualche modo ci si capiva. Insomma, non attraverserei Londra per andare a mangiare lì, ma se ci si trova a Islington può essere una opzione da valutare.

We visited this restaurant last night (11/2/2012) and we honestly think this is the worst curry we have ever had. To be honest the chicken starter wasn't bad but then I chose the MURGH SAGRANA which was listed as their ' Special' and described as 'An exceptional chicken dish unique to Gufaa and cooked especially for weddings!' Well, I don't know what weddings they go to but if this was at most weddings there would be divorces by the end of the day! This dish was just a Korma in a fancy pot! They told me this would be full of spice, but seriously, I've tasted better out of a can! They then brought exactly the same food back in an even fancier dish! After refusing to eat any more of it they added it to our bill! Great service!!!! After some fuss, which I hate and find embarrassing, they removed this from the bill. I won't ever go to this restaurant again and urge you to walk on by if looking for a curry in this area.

Un sitio encantador y acogedor. Comida auténtica hindú con precios muy muy asequibles. Cena para dos a la carta con varios platos y cervezas por unos 40-50 euros. Un poco apartado del centro, pero merece la pena llegar hasta allí.Recomendaría los Thalis de gambas y el plato de pollo especial de las bodas hindús, pero creo que todo está realmente rico. Repito seguro.

The waiter was grumpy, the food overpriced and either just ok or terrible.The dosa we had for starters was small, limp with no flavour and served with ketchupI think the waiter was upset we weren't drunk and so would not come to suggestive selling of extra beers poppadoms and the like.

I'm not sure at what point the meal turned sour. Was it possibly the £9 for five half-charred poppadoms and chutney - yes, I double checked my poppadom hadn't been lacquered in gold-leaf and no, the chutney hadn't been hand-milked from the breast of Sheba either. It could also have been the rosé wine, which conformed so delightfully to that futuristic E.U vision of bored French viticulturists mixing dreg-ends of white and red bargain-bin plonk together in industrial-sized vats and shipping the resultant vinegar off to the ignorant "rosbif". Or maybe it was the 45 minute wait for a collection of identical dishes swimming in a ubiquitous lukewarm almondy goop: whether ghosht pasanda, korma or tandoori, you could bet it was going to yellow and devoid of any kick whatsoever. The crispy burnt onion bits at the bottom of my dish were the elements that elicited possibly the only excited groan of the evening. The indignant look of the near-comatose waiter when we tried to remove the service charge from our exorbitant bill at least provided entertainment value, as did the grand debate on the possible provenance of the aforementioned "creamy sauce". Best not to think too long about it, and head somewhere else.

Just came from birthday meal enfamille, we had four dishes and a kebab between us, the best Indian food I have eaten in many years!Ignore that first review; that person must've caught them at a bad moment. Honestly, I've eaten a lot of Indian food, and this was tops!

The food is terrible and the service is on a par with this. Avoid at all costs. If you're in Islington try Parveen (further down Upper Street) or Emni across the road. Both are a far cry from the awful food served here.

The food was lovely, just wish I hadn't had the worst tummy ache ever, and it wasn't to do with the food!
