Indian City in City of London, Westminster

Amazing food that tastes 10/10 every time I visit! I have been coming here for years now and am never disappointed! Food and service consistently exceeds my expectations. Recently took my mum and dad here to celebrate my mum’s birthday and she loved it!! (she is a hard one to please). Very affordable for such a central location. Can’t wait to come back!

I went for a date night! The location is perfect, and the food was lovely I enjoyed the biryani it was perfection with the right spice I asked for extra spice and it was spot on. The service was great we asked to move to a more cosy area and they were very accommodating. Will definitely go again!

Came here for our 25th anniversary. This restaurant was recommended by a friend. Had a lovely time. The food was probably the best authentic indian I've had in a long time. The staff made such a fuss of us when they found out that it was our anniversary. The chef even prepared one of his special dishes for us as an extra freebie.

Incredible taste of Indian cuisine. Amazing customer service.

Heart of the city and this place is a Gem. Chicken Jalfrezi with the right spice was amazing. Best indian by far. Recommended

I recently dined at Indian City and was blown away by the authentic flavors and fresh ingredients. The dishes were perfectly spiced and full of rich taste. The service was also excellent—friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. I’ll definitely be returning! Highly recommend!

Amazing place to Eat Highly Recommended if your looking for good service and food. The food was absolutely amazing and not to mention the staff, amazing service and they were also very kind. Came with my family from far just to see what restaurants london had to offer and honestly im just amazed. 10/10

My favourite Indian place in all of London. Amazing food every time, generous portions, delicious and fast service. Team are always smiling and couldn’t do more for you, super attentive. Will always be back :)

Amazing service , delicious food & outstanding atmosphere. I will recommend to everyone come & visit this prime location. Five star 🌟✨

Fantastic food, great service. Went on a couples date and was very impressed with the food and service. The environment was very clean. Thank you Aman for the service.

Fantastic indian indian in the city.

We visited Indian City on a Saturday and it was an excellent experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious, with rich flavors and perfectly balanced spices that truly captured the essence of Indian cuisine. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with taste. The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, ensuring we felt welcomed and well taken care of throughout our meal. Their recommendations were spot on by Hum and added to the overall dining experience. The atmosphere was warm and cosy, making it the perfect setting for an enjoyable meal. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely be returning soon!

Service and atmosphere: 5 stars Very attentive to children , very friendly and warm servers and stuff. Beautiful ambiance with candlelight and linen Food: I’m giving it a 4 as the dishes we ordered were too sweet for our taste

Great food & service would definitely recommend if your your looking for an Indian in the area.

Excellent food, service, and atmosphere. Prices are also unreal for the quality and location. Definitely recommend!

Maravillosa experiencia! Comida deliciosa en un lugar acogedor. Personal muy amable. Precios buenos. ¡Súper aprobado! Seguramente volveremos pronto.

Visited Indian City on New years eve with my family, and can honestly say this place is the best Indian food in the London By far, Great food, Great service, Great price. Can't wait to revisit soon.

We came our first evening in London and without hesitation we wanted to come back. The food is delicious the prices are reasonable and the wine is also affordable £37 for a Sancerre. The giant tandoori shrimp particularly charmed us. A big wow. Come try it

Delicious Indian food in a classy environment. Service is great. The lunch deal is a really good deal.

Outstanding Outstanding Outstanding service! Amazing food, Britain was YUMMMMM. Roghan chicken was AMAZING. Loved it.

We had a lovely Christmas Eve dinner at Indian City (St. Paul’s). Lucky to find a restaurant for our party of 4 plus one toddler, we pleasantly surprised by the welcoming service and ambiance of this little gem. The owners and staff couldn’t have been more accommodating and the food was absolutely first class. Everything was delicious from appetizers, main courses; it was all amazing. Our granddaughter received special attention and we were treated to complimentary after-dinner drinks and chocolate mints; a very pleasant way to top off our experience. We couldn’t recommend Indian City more. You won’t be disappointed!

We happened across Indian City while looking for a Christmas Eve dinner with a hungry toddler in tow. Not only did this turn out to be a hidden gem, but the service was just as great as the food. I would highly recommend for anyone looking to have top-notch Indian but avoiding the overcrowded “trendy” spots.

Excellent food and service. And the staff was so kind to our 3 year old granddaughter even bringing her ice cream as a special treat. Would not hesitate to go back.

Thank you for squeezing us in last minute, we had a job around the corner, and found this place. Left satisfied! Would recommend Lamb Shank.

Had a lunch set menu here with a work friend. We had an excellent experience, Riaz - our waiter was prompt with service suggesting some popadoms whilst we wait. Drinks were prompt, and when my friend was unsure what to order, Riaz made a suggestion as to something he might like which was chicken Bhuna. The lunch set menu covers two starters, two main dishes and an option of either naan or rice. Between us we had a chicken tikka, sheek kebab starters, with a chicken bhuna and chicken tikka masala mains, with naans. The food was excellent. Personally I prefer more chicken and less sauce but accept that this reflects the lunch deal and ls probably a more sensible for a lunchtime option so would definitely say get the two course. Even then I would say the serving size was acceptable but in no way generous. We also had a couple of bottles of coke and not the depressingly small ones too, so that was good. Finished off with a couple of hot wipes and a mint each. We spent about 40minutes from entering the door to settling the bill, so service was prompt perfect for a working lunch. The atmosphere was good for a working lunch, not too loud, but not dead, so very pleasant. Staff were respectful and well dressed. Came to just over £40 with service charge. Which I think is an excellent price to pay considering the quality of service and quality of food. I will definitely be returning some time in the future and would highly recommend.

Yummy food and service! We had our christmas party and was spectacular.

AMAZING Indian food. One of the best I’ve tried. Came with work colleagues and the food is out of this world and great compared to the local area. The atmosphere is amazing will cook dimmed lighting and you feel like you are in a 5* clean restaurant. Highly recommend.

I booked this restaurant for my birthday because I was let down by another venue last minute. The owner was very understanding and the staff offered the best customer service, very accommodating and made my experience very special. Thank you team for looking after us, I will recommend the food to everyone who loves Indian - even tailoring my meal to authentic extra spicy food. The staff were so lovely and did not kick us out when they were trying to close. Recommend the lunch menu, the value is brilliant. Thank you so much for the great experience!! Will be visiting again soon!

Honestly our favorite place to eat while in town. Our Indian restaurants in France are not quite as good as the ones we find in the UK. But Indian City as the best chicken korma you can find in London! It’s always a pleasure to be greated by familiar faces! See you next time! :)

Indian City was fantastic! Went in for dinner on a Saturday - was seated quickly. Service with Bimol was elite. Highly recommend!

Great food and nice cozy place. Hussain was great taking care of us.

Lamb shank + Garlic naan x2 is highly recommended. Service from waiters was snappy. Had a lovely chat with the manager. Thanks Indian City, will definitely see me soon.

Chicken tikka biryani was my favourite dish. I asked for it to be extra hot and it was just that. The naan bread was fluffy and delicious. I also enjoyed the mango coco dessert. Recommended for a family reunion!

One of the most decent Bangladeshi restaurants in the area: top service and atmosphere. I've ordered takeaway and eaten in, and never had complaints.

Came across this little gem in the city while working in st pauls. Always walk pass it and see its busy thought me and my work lot give it a try for lunch and it did not disappoint. Reasonable price with very tasty meal.

I can say chicken nawabi and chicken shashlik was immense. Very tasty and fantastic service. Will be back

Chan and the team are second to none, best curry house in London

Fantastic just fantastic. Food is very tasty and lamb shank was just delicious. Best Indian i had in ages. Family loved every bit of it.

Very very nice food and the waiters were very knowledgeable of the menu and very hospitable. The ambiance is very relaxing and welcoming

Very nice food, waiters were very hospitable and would definitely be making a trip again soon

Excellent customer service. All staff very friendly polite and attentive checking on us regularly without being imposing. Food was delivered quickly and was very tasty. I rarely write a review, but this restaurant absolutely deserves high praise indeed!

Happened across the restaurant just wondering for a spot for an evening meal, always feel a little awkward asking for a table for one, greeted with a sincere smile and a “yes of course” despite an already busy setting was a lovely start. Restaurant has two floors, I was taken to the -1 for my table. The team were working so well with a rowdy bunch of customers constantly changing their minds. Great service for me, good fun and delicious food. Highly recommend for a friendly and tasty meal. Thank you to your restaurant Indian city.

Food and service was really good.

What a fabulous discovery! Late night tasty food, wonderful level of service and attention to detail. It was amazing!

Food is amazing, service is impeccable

Very disappointed with food. It's not at all Indian cuisine or Indian restaurant. So don't expect great Indian food delicacy and taste. I can't say anything more.

Ordered dal, paneer Karahi and bhindi bhajee. While the name of restaurant may suggest “Indian”.. the taste makes you wonder .. “Really???”…. So don’t go expecting authentic “Indian” food. The bhindi was raw, paneer karahi gave raw tomato flavour…. The waiter was rude ….when asked about Indian varieties and taste. Do not recommend!!

the food was very nice and all the staff were extremely kind and welcoming and the atmosphere was lovely

I’ve tried a few Indian cuisine spots in London and around the area so I had high expectations, and I must say Indian City did not fail to meet them . A notable mention to one of the waiters named ‘Alek’, who had ensured my whole night was just great, positive attitude, always helpful and great customer service. Highly recommend Indian City and big thanks to Alek once again.

Lam Shaslik is very nice. Food quality is very good, just mouthwatering. Waiter behavior is very good. Indian City restaurant is very good in all aspects

Lam Shaslik is very nice. Food quality is very good. Waiter behavior is very good. Indian City restaurant is very good in all aspects

Horrible food - ordered a lamb dish that was mostly onions and other vegetables - hardly any meat - bread was old and over cooked - probably store bought and reheated at restaurant. Food was way to sweet - the food was not enjoyable to eat at all - tried my hardest to enjoy it but failed.

I’ve visited this evening for dinner with my friends at Indian city, then food are so nice and delicious also service was great friendly stuff, most of them I really liked kind prawns 👍🏻

Ordered a tandoori mixed grill which was dreadful the tandoori chicken was undercooked and there was no difference between tandoori chicken and chicken tikka. Also ordered chips as side and they only thing u could u can taste was the oil. Nothing to say about the service which was great they tried to help and have hot wipes. And too expensive. I would recommend to the restaurant to look at the menu again.

Awesome food Proper flavours of old school dishes

Nice sailing and good entertainment

Nice environment and nice food lam buns is very good all staff are very friendly and nice

Wonderful food, excellent spices, brilliant service, handy location. Thank you for the experience! Alex you are a ⭐️

The food was excellent, the service attentive and impeccable. Very fair prices. We can only recommend the restaurant.

Absolutely brilliant, service and food top notch. Will be back for the mix grill. one of the best indian food defiantly will come back

We tried Tarka Daal and it was the best and same as chicken karahi. The chicken starter was also delectable. But the prawn was a bit spoilt. The people at the restaurant were very friendly and the service and ambience were great. And also the coconut ice cream with chocolate sauce was really nice.

Tall waiter went out of his way to chase us down the road more than 200m to return our camera we left at the restaurant. Food was great, all staff were kind to our two young boys and didn’t charge for a dish that was incorrectly sized. Thanks for having us!

On a random walk during our visit to London, we came across this place and being it was less than half an hour away from their closing time, the staff was very kind enough to serve us. The atmosphere was great, the cleanliness was impeccable. We ordered Chef’s special Nawabi Lamb Shank for main course and Duck tikka for starters. It was our first time trying duck and I can say we weren’t disappointed!! We’ve eaten lamb at the infamous “Dishoom” as well and I think their lamb dish was at the same level or may be even better because of their unique touch and presentation. Server’s were very welcoming and polite. Highly satisfied with both the experience and the food - Would definitely come back again!!

We had dinner there with our 2 children, the food was excellent! Cozy atmosphere, very clean place. Top service and very pleasant and attentive staff. We will come back with pleasure!

Dishes are unreasonably sweet and lame, totally not worth that expensive price. Never go again and will never recommend anyone at all. I really regret the dining experience here. The owner even replies extremely rudely and without respect to the genuine reviews. Horrendous experience.

Indian food without taste of spices, all masala we had are all too sweet and tasted the same. Never tried a sweet version of Palak Paneer before. It was very disgusting. Biryani was just a tasteless fried rice.

I recently visited the restaurant hoping to enjoy an authentic Indian meal, but was left quite disappointed. The dishes we ordered were overwhelmingly sweet with very little spice or depth of flavor. Even the naan bread, which is usually a nice accompaniment to soak up sauces, had an unpleasant sweet flavor that didn't pair well with the entrees. PLEASE DONT ORDER BUTTER CHICKENS, that was so weirdly sweet. 100% a disaster. I hope I’m not getting diabetes tmr. Bless me

I have to say, this was the best indian food experience I've had in a long while! the atmosphere is moody and peaceful (they play smooth jazz over the speakers) the service is impeccable and of course the food is amazing! I've been a few nights in a row now as well! Their lamb dishes are to. die. for.! I have a personal taste for Indian food and have been to many a restaurant, but this is by far the best.

Lovely food, quick service. Friendly waiters.

Went here for dinner and had an incredible time the food was delicious from the rice to the main dishes I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking for great food in this area.

I had dinner with my family and we had an amazing experience. The food is delicious, full of flavor , staff is very friendly. We definitely will come back in the future.

Don’t look any further for amazing Indian food in London city and great value for money too. It’s my go to when I’m in London.

We had family meal here, very tasty and the lamb was super tender. Service was great and wine option was good too. Nice environment and good food.All in all a very good restaurant.

Wow, absolutely immense from food to service highly recommended Lamb here is very tender and tasty.... definitely best I have tried in city of london

Staff was lovely and had wonderful recommendations. Loved the ambience immediately upon walking in. Food was very tasty and hit the spot!

Absolutely amazing, last minute as we were watching the football next door, so hadn’t booked, so accommodating as there were 9 of us, food was excellent, everyone enjoyed what they had and friends started to sing happy birthday to me when lighting the candle so they knew it was my birthday, brought out a little cake, so thoughtful, thoroughly recommend and would definitely go again.

beautiful environment Food quality is very good. The behavior of the waiter is very nice

Food is amazing! Service is top tier and the restaurant had a nice and lively atmosphere. Will definitely be going back here when I’m in London again.

Great Indian restaurant, with delicious food.

I visited Indian City with one of my friends for lunch & they served one of best Indian sabji I have eaten in London since a long time. I would really recommend this place for Indian food lovers, their services are also good, though the price is bit on the higher side but it's worthy.

Good environment, friendly stuff

I have good experience with this restaurant.

Walking by looking for a quick dinner, decided on some Indian food. The restaurant found a spot for us in a corner even though they were packed. We greatly appreciated this. Veg Biriyani, Naaga Chicken and Aloo Gopi tasted great!

Cozy atmosphere in this restaurant. Tasty cuisine, with excellent meat and vegetarian dishes. Discreet and friendly service. A great experience!

We had family meal here, very tasty and the lamb was super tender. Service was great and wine option was good too. Reasonable priced. Would be back!

I usually don't write bad reviews, but this place was horrible. For starters there was some beef going on between the person who looked like the manager and the waiter. So the waiter neglected me and just didn't care. On top of that the food was sub par. When the mint chutney is sweet, you gotta run away from that place as fast and as far away as you can. May be the UK crowd likes sweet mint chutney, I don't know. Also the saag paneer was sweet. To his credit the waiter warned me that it was not spicy and it is creamy and mild; but didn't expect it to be sweet. It should be ordered as a dessert. The only saving grace was that the tandoor items were decent and the naan was decent.

The service was outstanding! The duck was quite dry. Not even sure if it was duck. But still satisfactory enough.

Found this place on an eye shot walking to my hotel, don’t be fooled by the small front, the food, service and atmosphere was amazing, very polite staff and very reasonably priced considering the excellent taste and quality! well recommended and will be returning on my next visit to london!

A great service and I attend, no reservation or wait time usually required, popped in from my local hotel in the area for something a bit more exotic from the usual food. My partner and I were equally as pleased with the food. Delivered almost straight away, waiters were chatty and had a good sense of humour about them. Would highly recommend to anyone staying or passing through Blackfriars in London. Would happily attend again.

Foid was great. But when I got there half an hour before closing (22:30), it was too late for seating. We took away and enjoyed our dinner.

Bog standard Indian. Not expensive, not exceptional, but enjoyable enough.

Last night's experience tells us to be very careful when ordering food, especially when the manager will ask you to order some unnecessary food. Rice and cakes are not cheap, so ask carefully before ordering. And it felt a bit forced to ask us to write comments after dinner that day. What I wrote today was what I felt in my heart.

Having been to all manner of curry houses in central London, at various price points, you get to know the market and what you like. India city is my favourite overall, they are excellent quality and do the fundamentals exceptionally well. The place ticks the boxes and you will not be disappointed. The staff are excellent, attentive and friendly. Carve out time on lunch early, to be lucky enough to get a seat on their lunchtime special. But I also eat here in evenings with friends. Thank you to the excellent staff and fantastic food!!

Extremely rude owner .. avoid if possible

Really nice food here. Service was phenomenal. highly recommeneded. try lamb shank!! Happy with the find. Not far from st pauls church.

Food was very tasty. The butter chicken is very sweet, but that shouldn't spoil the fun. Looks closed from the outside, but very cozy inside.

The food is good, and I assume that everything is fine as long as you don't order the special lunch menu. If you do, however, the menu says it includes rice and naan, but they serve only one naan and a small bowl of rice for two people, and if you ask for the second rice you have to pay it separately. It's a small thing, the restaurant isn't expensive, it's just bad manners.

Absolutely delicious meal. Great service and good price for central London. Highly recommended.

This is a fantastic and authentic Indian restaurant in great location.That was a great dinner last night, food was so delicious with perfect spice, food came so quick very good service definitely will come back soon.
