Indian City in City of London, Westminster

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

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

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.

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

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!!

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. Waiter behavior is very good. Indian City restaurant is very good in all aspects

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

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!

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Hi,I want to tell one incidence i went this morning in this reasturant for breakfast at around 1200hrs firstly they opened and the men who opened were very rude and after 15-20min they came to ask my order i ordered two thimgs they took the order and later one of the person came and said pur chef said we can’t do that amd when i asked them with whom i can speak regarding this nobody responsed they all were ignoring me and the behaviour of staff is very rude please don’t visit this reasturant Thank you

Had a fabulous lunch with quality food and great service. I had 2 course set lunch & my partner a la carte. They were happy to off menu dish variations.

One of the best in London without doubt my “go to” in the City. Great tasting food and great service, at a reasonable price (for London!)

Quick dinner alone but would repeat anytime with a group or alone. Everything as expected and tasty. Thank you

We had a family dinner at Indian city restaurant The ambiance is superb, I highly recommend this restaurant, the food was amazing and the service was fantastic. We all enjoyed your delicious food (especially the king prawn wabi, Naga meat curry, lamb shank and also other dishes, also need to thanks to their staff made our night lovely their service was outstanding, Special thanks to the chef!

Had a group party with family here. Was the best. Very authentic Indian!. Childrens loved it here too.

Great service with great food !!! The staff was absolutely bang on !! Food was Bosh !!! 10/10 :)

Had a group meal with about 20 people downstairs. Every loved it. We even took takeaway. So thank you Indian city for making a special birthday party for my brother in-law. We will be back

Visited first time amazing service would definitely recommend.. INDIAN CITY !!!

Excellently prepared food to suit a range of tastes, and good value. We held a business meeting there, and everyone enjoyed their meal.

Food was very tasty and exquisite! Very best quality indian i had in ages! Just like my mothers cooking, the Bhagari chicken mouth watering. Not the one to write reviews very often but here i had to after my super duper service and great food.

Food was excellent. Service was OK. The location is great, right next to blackfriars station. The building itself is very compact and feels a little cramped. But if you don't mind that then worth a visit.

Very good place with tasty food, the portions are more than enough, will repeat 100%

The most fresh, delicious food. In a great location and the staff are fantastic. I go time and time again! Definitely worth a visit

Fantastic place to eat the waiters were very friendly specially sam was top class will definitely come back

Went for the express lunch deal - good quality Indian food, but not exceptional. Happy with the quality of the food and flavour of the curries, naan bread however was drowning in ghee.

Best Indian food in central London, staff are very friendly and helpful, highly recommended 💯

The food was delicious very tasty dishes service was outstanding very friendly staff there, fusion dishes are mouth watering dishes,top quality ingredients used all my friends enjoyed it , thank you to RUBEL and the team

Excellent indian restaurant where you have the opportunity to explore various experience of indian food; chicken, lamb, etc... with different level of spicy sensation. the green chicken was very good ! in addition of that, an opportunity to have food after 10:00pm, as all local pub are all close for serving food. do not hesitate if you are aroud.

Indian City truly delivers an exceptional dining experience! Our recent Christmas meal, hosted for work on the 18th of December, was nothing short of spectacular. The standout feature was undeniably the outstanding service provided by Sam. His attentiveness and dedication ensured our evening was seamless and enjoyable. The food was an absolute delight! Each dish was a masterpiece, boasting authentic flavors that tantalized our taste buds. From aromatic curries to flavorful biryanis, every bite was a culinary adventure. Moreover, the ambiance during the festive season added a special touch to the evening, making it a truly memorable occasion. Indian City is undoubtedly a gem for anyone seeking not only delicious Indian cuisine but also impeccable service. Highly recommended for any occasion or celebration!

Lovely place!. I really enjoyed the food! Everything is super delicious and the atmosphere was amazing. & Definitely will come back!

Had our Christmas dinner here.. Not the one for reviews but this was one of the best curry i had in the city. Hence why i had to write a review. Christmas menu i recommend you try the lahoori chicken mouth watering and tasted like home. Will be down with my family. Oh service is friendly and busting atmophere.

Excellent food and very nice people serving. I would recommend this place.

I took a few clients here this afternoon. Service was first class. V friendly, and attentive but no rush. Thank you Ching for looking after us so well. Food was superb, the restaurant is a high standard of presentation without being too fancy and the environment is buzzing with people from suits to jumpers. A great mix. I entertain clients a lot and this is one of the best Indian restaurants I’ve been to.

Great service and atmosphere plus pretty good food.

Great food and excellent service

Chicken Jalfrezy hit the spot. Highly recommended and service top notch.

Choice to go here rescued a night out with the family.

Worst restaurant I have ever been too. Just wanted to post again as my first had been deleted - if you look at the Owners response to negative views it will tell you everything you need to know

By far the best Indian restaurant I’ve had the pleasure of eating at. Everything from their starters to their main dishes has flavour and is presented so beautifully. I would definitely recommend to anyone as there is something for everyone.

The food was absolutely fantastic. Best Indian food I’ve ever had! The staff was very nice as well.

Waiter was constantly pestering us to get up, even though there was no one waiting and there was still a lot of time for the restaurant to close, this is totally unacceptable. We had to literally gobble up our food and leave some food on the table itself to save ourself from the repeated requests from the waiter. Never expected this at a restaurant in London. Please avoid if you can as they seem to be least bothered to provide a decent service.

Fantastic food and service. Came by with friends on Saturday we was at the London eye. Try green chicken tikka

First time I've visited this restaurant and it was excellent! We had the set 2 course lunch and it was superb value! Thank goodness we booked as the restaurant was packed! We'll definitely be going back!

Whoa! I know London has the best Indian food, but this is ridiculous. I ordered (take-out) Karahi chicken - it should be called Karahi oil with a couple of chicken pieces. The vegetable Jalfrazi was more like “Oilfrazi”. The tandoori roti and Peshawari naan were good, but hey, that is not a high bar! I was extremely disappointed. The service people are nice, but the chef needs an education in how to cook.
