Hankies Marble Arch in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We had our wedding reception at Hankies and it was absolutely fantastic. The food, the atmosphere and the service all exceeded our expectations and our guests were raving about the food long after the event. A special thank you to Florian who was wonderful to work with – he was extremely responsive, reassured us that everything was in hand and delivered the most memorable event for us. We could not recommend Hankies and the team enough!

My friend and I walked a lot of placed before we chose Hankies and glad we made the selection, the staff is very polite and helpful and the food tasted real good, yes they are bit small portions but the taste exceptional. All the 3 courses we ordered from starters to mains to deserts I dont have any complaints on the food and the staff and I would give 5 rating for these. The tiny disappointment is we got a corner window table which is fantastic but there were all wires and adapters running through our legs, luckily neither I nor my friend tripped but it could happen if we haven't noticed. I hope Hankies will see this review and fix it. Cheers Sunesh

Great food and good service. I’m not an Expert in Indian cousin, but this was a Great experience. Nice flauvors and good services made a good evening for is. Thx!

I have eaten here once previously (pre Covid) in the private dining room and it was great. Due to this I have booked the private dining room again later in the month for a birthday celebration and went this week to choose wines and have dinner. I have eaten in a Michelin Star Indian restaurant and this honestly surpassed it. The service is second to none, attentive but discreet and friendly. The food is is beyond all expectations- beautifully cooked, extremely flavoursome and we all loved the fact it was Tapas style so you could try several dishes - the Ghost ribeye was amazing as was the chicken ravioli. I am so looking forward to my booking at the end of the month. I can’t recommend this place enough. Thank you

This place is a rip off. We ordered kofta and they only gave one piece. I was shocked. Also the quantity of dal was very less. Very bad attitude to serve such less food for the price they charge. I am sure if they continue like this the restaurant will soon go out of business.

We booked the private dining room and restaurant for our wedding. Florin and the team surpassed our expectations. In the lead up to the wedding Florin was exceptionally helpful. He was always available and we loved that he was able to share his thoughts and ideas and we really felt he wanted our day to go well. The food was amazing and all our guests commented on how much they enjoyed the food. We will certainly be visiting the restaurant again.

We went for a dinner with the family. Food quality was really good but the portion sizes were tiny. It’s not what you pay for. Even one portion is not enough for 1 person and you pay a lot. The waiter and waitress were romancing in front of everyone which we found very weird.

We visited on Mother's Day for afternoon tea as a treat but we're a little disappointed with what we received. The hotel claims to be 'one of the finest afternoon tea establishments' in London - I do not agree. Our teas were just average. The sandwiches and scones were just OK but the cakes were very disappointing and looked nothing like advertised on their website. We got what appeared to be small squares of cake that had been cut from larger tray bakes, nothing particularly wrong with that but not as expected for a 5☆ hotel

I went there based on the reviews. The food was excellent, tapas size so you would have to order several of them. Nice decoration, quick service, healthy and tasty. I went there in 2019 but not sure why the system checks another date

Decent food, not amazing for the price. Service was really very poor - we didn’t have a booking, so were put in an out of the way corner, although half the restaurant was empty for the duration. Had to chase some of our order as they’d just forgotten. Waitresses were not really familiar with the menu. Not a smile on the face of any of the staff. I get a far better level of service from Wagamama, Pizza Express, or any of the high street restaurants. Was cold - a chilling blast every time the front or back door opened. We were sat there with our coats on. Couldn’t wait to leave. Not really a very enjoyable experience.

We were so looking forward to our afternoon tea with a glass of wine but in all honesty it was a disappointment. I've had a lot of afternoon teas and for the area and price, this was nothing special. When I booked, I was asked if there were any allergies; I stated that one of us doesn't eat pork or fish.... my friend was hoping for maybe ham but all finger sandwiches were vegetarian. There were some unusual combinations and I actually asked if we could have some chicken. The scones were ok but there wasn't enough jam and cream for four; the cakes looked good but we didn't really get a vibe in the place and just decided to leave. The staff were helpful and I received three takeaway boxes, which lets you know how much wasn't eaten. The hotel looks lovely from outside but I don't think inside did it justice. If I had paid full price of £77 for two, I would have asked for my money back but luckily I had a voucher and paid £30. In all honesty, I would not recommend that you have afternoon tea here.

Received a voucher for sparkling afternoon tea - attempted to book a weekend multiple times, eventually got booked in 3-4months after I had hoped to. On arrival walk-ins were being turned away but there were still quite a few empty tables...perhaps it was a social distancing measure? Staff were friendly but not particularly attentive, and the afternoon tea was ok, but not particularly "special" - by no means a connoisseur of afternoon teas but have definitely had better, particularly on the cake front, they were all quite dry and oddly tasted the same, which was a little spicy as though they'd been made and sat with the curry for a while. It was pleasant enough but nothing to make us rush back for another booking

I loved the atmosphere, service and the food was to die for. I honestly couldn't say which dish was my favourite, but I really enjoyed the yoghurt with pomegranate, paneer chilli curry and gosht tikka. Set in a lovely cosy restaurant with attentive service, it made a lovely birthday treat. Will be back when visiting London again!

I dined at Hankies as one of a large group for a special birthday celebration. We were in a private dining room which, like the entire restaurant, had a welcoming ambience and tasteful decor. From the first couple of amuse bouche dishes which were served, all the way through to the delicious desserts at the end of the meal, the chef(s) did not put a foot wrong. The food was delicious, plentiful and varied. It was clear that great attention was paid to flavour and texture. The waiting staff were friendly and attentive but never intrusive. A perfect evening with delicious food. Highly recommended.

Cannot fault the amazing night we had at Hankies Marble Arch. The drinks, food and service were perfect and I could not ask for anything more. A great place to go with family and friends and a very memorable experience!

The atmosphere was amazing and comfortable with absolutely amazing food. Every dish has its own unique taste and were perfectly presented. The service was quick even with it being a Saturday. The drinks, especially cocktails were specially made and unique flavours. Would definitely visit again...hopefully...

Was bought a bottomless afternoon tea by a friend for my birthday - we had a great time. Service was good, large choice of food, we even took some away with us. Would definitely go again.

Had a great time here. Due to covid, we had to change the booking date, then on the day reduce the numbers, which was no problem for the restaurant. The meal was excellent, we ordered a selection of dishes to share and we had 5...

All delicious .Had the spicy lamb, butter chicken and the black dal.All really fab . Found this by accident as staying at it’s sister hotel .

One of the worst experiences I have had, absolutely terrible service, waited 50minutes for our lunch to arrived, we asked why we had to wait so long and were told that the salmon that was ordered takes 25 minutes to cook. Desserts took about 25...

Evening began by travelling to their other restaurant after booking a table on-line. Arrived at address but couldn’t find the restaurant. It had been closed for a long time said the restaurant next door. Called our other guests and diverted them to Marble Arch before...

I stayed at the Montcalm Hotel in Marble Arch on Sunday last week. I had been advised by some friends that the "Hankies" Hotel was a must try. I went down around 8 PM the restaurant was very quiet and asked for a Table for...

The starters, sides and main dishes were all delicious and I had one of their signature cocktails which was amazing and really complimented the food. However the service was rather slow and lacklustre. With friendliness and warmth this would have been a definite 5* experience....

This restaurant was Amazing we highley recommend this Curry restaurant. We will visit again. Steve & Julie UK August 2021

There are positives to be said about the food which I've listed at the end of this review, as the majority of our feedback and constructive criticism is service related that's where we'll start. Upon entering through the secondary entrance (which backs onto the street)...

Visited over the weekend and saw on their website and social media their summer lunch set menu offer. However was advised in the restaurant that this was not available with no further explanation. Honestly I believe this was a way to avoid to serve the...

Excellent food, flavours and service. Highly recommend. Previous people commented on the portion sizes but for us they were perfect.

I have been to the Hankies Street Cafe but a first time at Marble Arch. The setting and decor is lovely. The drinks were good. The starters were very good - recommend Mantu, Golden Cod and Lamb Chops. The mains were brilliant- loved the Roomali...

On entry the restaurant required that we both pass a temperature check (good) but which required physically touching (bad) a clearly defective (even worse) temperature machine - that every other guest was required to touch too (terrible). Why can't they use one that doesn't require...

We had high expectations but left feeling highly disappointed. The food portions are horrific in comparisons to the price. The setting is beautiful but the food is tasteless. We voiced our concern to the waiter who said the manager does not have time to discuss...

Ate at this restaurant. Food was amazing. Service impeccable. Good portions. Reasonable prices. Nice ambience. Would definitely recommend.

My partner received a voucher for afternoon tea as a birthday gift, booking was a simple process although this had to be done by email rather than online. On arrival we observed all of the COVID regs with hand sanitation and temperature checks, although we...

Exceptional tasty food. Been to the one in soho a few times and decided to try this one and were not disappointed. The lamb chops are just incredible (little pricey tho at £11 for two) but I can say that about many of the plates....

Best Indian restaurant I've visited in London! Great food, the Mushroom Kachori was incredible! Great service too, the staff were very welcoming and friendly

An excellent evening at Hankies. The food was super delicious and the service was certainly outstanding. The chef was extra accommodating with dietary requirements and the whole experience at the restaurant was outstanding. Under the pandemic circumstances , the restaurant was very well prepared with...

Me and my partner where looking for somewhere to spend our buy a gift voucher on when in london and we come across this place. £40 for afternoon tea and a large glass of Prosecco (and they where really large). The staff where very friendly...

Hankies is an Indian Restaurant at The Montcalm. Atm you get 50% off everything on Mondays till Wednesdays 😃 It has a beautiful interior and it is child friendly because it is spacious and provides high chairs. There is no kids’ menu but they have...

Best meal in London. Best meal of out two weeks stay and it was right in our hotel. Staff at hankies super nice. Nice setting good for a date night. Was quite busy for a Tuesday evening, but the eat out to help out offer...

We had the absolute pleasure of dining at Hankies for lunch on Saturday afternoon. Upon arrival the staff were very friendly, well equipped with PPE and very welcoming. We were offered between the choice of the Indian menu or the European menu. We decided to...

Hankies restaurant specialises in small plates of Indian fusion cooking by taking casual Delhi street food and elevating it to something far more sophisticated. Not only has chef Anirudh Arora given great thought and consideration to each dish, but also possesses the requisite skills for...

Ranking 5th; Hankies Marble Arch, Food and Service, A Perfect Match... For Starters; Beautifully prepared and presented their Lamb Chops, Bhel and Paneer Tikka. The flavors coming out of these dishes left us licking our lips and devastated that the plates had nothing left! The...

Arrived to an empty restaurant just before 12.30 pm but it did start to fill up later. The food we were served was all delicious and service was attentive. The Roti are made fresh on site (you can go up to watch then being created...

Worst experience ever! Our first time going here. Had a booking for Sunday brunch, 2pm, received two confirmation emails regarding the booking. Turned up there and they said that they’re closed today, they had a big booking going. We showed them evidence of our booking...

This is Indian street food at its best - think Indian style tapas, with lots of small sharing plates. Lots of variety and all truly mouth watering. The service is something else though. It was really hard to get anyone to pay attention. Waited for...

Lovely restaurant in a lovely location - food and service were on point. Was minded to give 5 stars here but had to knock off a point, for two reasons: 1) the portion sizes were a touch too small. The butter chicken for example is...

Lovely atmosphere; ideal for a date night, romance or quiet meal with friends. Location was very convenient too. Menu itself could have been better and had more variety. Portions are quite small but food is decent

Loved our lunch here. Had a little bit of everything and all was delicious. Seasonal specialities were standouts. Nice service.

I have visited numerous Indian restaurants in my quest for a roomali roti and I have finally found the perfect place. We had lunch here and ordered all items on the vegetarian section. The portions are well priced so this was a good plan but...

Delicious food and great service! A very cozy atmosphere as well. Exceeded our expectations, highly recommend!

We visited Hankies for dinner and were hugely impressed. We were warmly welcomed on arrival and then taken into the restaurant - this was cosy and beautifully decorated for Christmas. Tables were well spaced and the background music added to the atmosphere. Everything we ate...

Really enjoyed the butter chicken! Short waiting time for the food and friendly waitresses. Would definitely come back!

This was a great Indian tapas style restaurant. Very good service and cool interior. If you like exclusive Indian food, this is the place.

Atmosphere, excellent service (waitress took the time to explain the various options and was there when needed), and good food make this a good bet if you are in the area. Quite a different menu than most Indian Restaurants. My wife and I shared one...

I came here for dinner with some friends last night. I was really impressed with the ambience of the restaurant and most importantly the food. Every dish was cooked to perfection and my compliments go to the chef. Another real positive was that parking was...

Was incredibly impressed with the food, restaurant and choices. Excellent service, delicious food (although grilled prawns were too salty), every other dish ordered was superb. Try the black dal, the paneer tikka and the mutter cholah. Will definitely return 👍

Unius is a fantastic chef. The food is excellent and the lamb chops are great. Strongly recommend for anyone.

Came here for dinner with friends. Food was amazing and delicious. One of the best Indian restaurants in London when it comes to quality of food. The service on the other hand was really poor - had to keep promoting them to bring cutlery, they...

10/10 for dinner, service and environment. Best Indian restaurant what I ever have visited. Located near by Marble Arch subway station.

- Booked a table for 10 people for lunch - No set menu was offered even when i asked for one - We were located on the left-hand side of the restaurant, one long table servicing and getting in and out from the table was...

Excellent food - bad service. The food was well made and delicious. The service was really bad, when we wanted the menu explained she got irritated. She bent over one of us to serve another guest. She explained that we needed several dishes, but when...

Hankies was such an experience! We went to celebrate a birthday and we were not disappointed. The atmosphere,the food, the service, everything was spot on. The lunch menu has some nice options . I couldn't fault any of the dishes. The bhindi bhel and the...

This is the second group dinner we arranged at Hankies - this time last Saturday night. Once again, they did not disappoint. Excellent food, service and value for money. Florin the manager ensured everything was fine and everyone had a great evening.

Had a business lunch organised at Hankies. Excellent service in the PDR followed by lunch in the restaurant. Loved the chicken pulao and keema (amongst other things) had mushroom soup and dahi bhala as starters - both were made very well. Excellent food and service....

The restaurant is gorgeous. The little detail are beautiful, even down to the cutlery, the knives and forks are gold and it looks gorgeous. The food is amazing and the prices are great. The nest butter chicken I have ever had. I have been twice...

We booked a table for dinner at Hankies yesterday. I don’t know where to start as everything was above our expectations Food was just delicious, when I say food it means each and every dish was more tastier than the previous one. Service was excellent...

Ate here after busy few days in London short walk from Hard Rock Hotel. Booked online an hour before. Small menu, not your typical Indian menu. I ate a spicy chicken ravioli, colleague had paneer in a sauce for starters with a crab dumpling with...

Upon entering Hankies, i was impressed by the decor and the ambience. The dining plates and cutlery were pretty, setting the mood for a fine dining experience. The truffle naan was delicious and a must try! I also enjoyed the butter chicken. We had chocolate...

Having been to both Hankies Marble Arch and Hankies Cafe, it feels safe to say they provide tasty food that satisfies my Indian food cravings. The keema dishes and crab were delicious, the butter chicken was outstanding and I really enjoyed the blueberry lassi (expensive...

The food here is excellent All of us left very happy We can't wait to visit again Definitely my favourite place to eat curry

Really enjoyed our latest visit to Hankies. The paper thin roomali roti is a MUST! Ioukd rate the starters better than the mains. Sadly we were too full for dessert so will have to go back again!

Our party had dinner (8pm) at this restaurant on Aug 13th 2019. The food was good as was the setting but it was completely overshadowed by the terrible service. The restaurant is set within a hotel so it was not terribly crowded so it was...

In short had a family meal for a birthday celebration. Very impressive decor and ambience . Disappointing start when I had a bland tasteless caiproska twist . Had to send it back. Starters were amazing and the stairs style menu is good. Peshawari tikka and...

This is a very good Indian food joint. The food is very nicely prepared and very authentic taste. The cocktails and starters are great

A spontaneous meal at Hankies Marble Arch turned out to be a really fine dining one. The look and atmosphere when you walk in is amazing. We were served by Irina who made the whole experience fun and 10 times better with her bubbly character!...

Twice here this month and our second visit was just as good if not better, food is amazing and our server (Alessio) was incredibly helpful and made the perfect COSMO for me, thank you for looking after us :)

Recently visited for my anniversary dinner, food quality and taste was standard if not below. Wasn’t worth the money at all. Mock-tails were laughable tasted like they were watered down. Extremely disappointed, money is never an issue for really good food but this place just...

Excellent Indian tapas which is located in a quieter part of London. The food is exquisite and very flavoursome, so lovely to experience such wonderful authentic tastes. The lamb is exceptional, I definitely recommend...... along with the chicken ravioli, crab, sweet potato and duck. We...

Our booking was for 7.30pm, and before the visit, I received 2 calls in the space of 24 hours stating that we had to clear the table by 9.30pm, so a 2 hour window. This was absolutely fine with us. Yet on arrival we were...

Great atmosphere, delicious food, had run out of my wine but got a good alternative. Good location too, very comfortable restaurant.

If you are looking for an Indian restaurant for a reasonable price in London central area, you found it. Good food, that compensates the slow service and the long waiting. Tasty and saucy as it must be, served in small/medium portions. I would surely go...

A meal with family. Defo recommend the lamb starter. The food was served to perfection. Staff were brilliant couldn't do enough for you

We went for dinner with friends. Ambience was good. We are vegetarian; they have good options for both veg and non veg foodies. We ordered many dishes and every one of them was delicious. It is Indian tapas style, so portion size is accordingly small...

Had dinner here several nights while in London for business. They have an amazing menu with lots to choose from. Love the tapas aspect of this location. The atmosphere was exceptional as was the food and the service. Highly recommend you go here. Some of...

8 of us went to Hankies in Upper Berkeley Street couple of weeks back. First of all we were not told at the time of booking that they were serving a buffet lunch, and when we got there we saw they were serving minimum number...

Stopped by on a quiet week-night. Staff were very good and the food was excellent. Lamb shank that fell off the bone and rich and flavourful sauces (I recommend ordering one of the plain "hankie" breads to mop up the sauce with, delicious). Only negative...

Found this place for lunch by chance while walking at Upper Berkley Street, nice cozy atmosphere with great dishes, comes in small tapas style and we ordered few of them by our servers recommendation. We Loved them all specially the lamb chops and chilli prawns....

We came here for dinner last night, this place has a really cozy atmosphere. Food was delicious! The service was interesting and the servers forgot about us multiple times which made the experience less enjoyable as it could have been. Overall, I’m not sure I’ll...

Great food, small portions (priced appropriately) which allow you to try a selection of dishes, excellent rotis, and, most importantly, professional staff who look after you and listen to your requests.

I've written many what I feel are balanced reviews and can recognise exaggeration when I see it. But honestly, this place is superb. It's far from your typical Indian. The tapas concept means you get to try lots of smaller dishes injecting real variety into...

My wife and I visited hankies before a show recently. We didn’t have lots of time but the waitress was superb and recommended numerous amazing dishes, everything tasted delicious, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The truffle naan was amazing and my wife is still raving...

4 girlfriends met here . Been thinking of trying this out . Beautiful seating cozy and comfortable still Not cramped . We tried almost everything on the menu and every dish was flavored with back home Indian spices just like it’s from a memory ....

We had a variety of small plates and cocktails.Everything we chose and everything our incredible server Lara suggested was excellent.Her service matched the food and we cannot wait to return this or next visit.

I always enjoy a good cocktail and this place did not disappoint. Great selection of liquors, and the bartender, Alessio did a great job making a perfect gin martini - just what I was looking for.

Very special Indian restaurant. Tasty on the spicy side. Reasonably priced. Great service. Heartily recommended.

This was an unexpected find. The food was a blend of Indian with a twist. The staff were helpful, advising us when one portion would be better than two due to size for example, and was very reasonably priced for being in the West End...

I was into some good Indian food and found this place nearby on tripadvisor. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere, most dishes come in small portions so it is nice to try different things even when you are alone. The service is very personal and...

Picture the fragrant delights of Delhi's best street food, transposed to the stylish surrounds of the Montcalm London Marble Arch @HankiesMarbleArch. Indian tapas, named after the classic roomali roti - Delhi-style flatbread hand-spun until thin enough to read through, then folded into 'hankies' and served...

Delicious food. Not like your average Indian where everything is orangey brown and swimming in oil. Delicate flavours, colourful, presentation first class, excellent service and surprisingly not overpriced. Good value for excellent food.

Tonight we decided to try the Indian restaurant by our hotel because we didn’t want to go far... I’ve tried by the past Indian food back home and I was very disappointed. All I can say is amazing!!! The best I’ve tried.

Good quality food - attentive service Would go again Am looking forward to checking out the Sunday Brunch
