Khan's in Lambeth

The food is absolutely superb. Fourth time we’ve had a takeaway and has been excellent every time. You do wait a little longer than they say - perhaps ten minutes extra usually but well worth it and the value is excellent.

Always an amazing experience and amazing food. Great for all occasions

Fabulously authentic biryani. Always piping hot and freshly made.

Excellent food, all nicely presented in a cosy and atmospheric restaurant. The staff were great and even led our group in a dance after our curry! Will be coming back for sure.

Absolutely delicious. The Matter Paneer mustn't be missed!

After a night of partying, we didn't initially expect to be able to enjoy any food at all. However, when our stomachs started to grumble and we craved Indian food, Google Maps spit out this restaurant for us. We ordered Butter Chicken, Ceylon Lamb, Samosas, Basmati Rice and Garlic Naan. What was brought to our table an admittedly long half hour later was an unparalleled taste fireworks display. By far the best meal I ate in 10 days in the UK!

Based on the food alone, I'd recommend eating at this place. Great if you like Indian cuisine!

I had my birthday dinner with 16 friends at Khans, and would definitely recommend - the staff are so friendly, the food is really good and it is so reasonably priced! We were downstairs so they let us connect to the speaker and they handled the large group really well - all food came out together and didn’t take too long

One of the best naans I ever had. Will come back!

Some of the best food in Brixton. Always reliably delicious and friendly.

Everything is really good, we have been going regularly for 10 years and have never been disappointed! The staff is also really nice, and the food is very affordable ! The pas and a especially was to die for😍

I’ve been to Khan’s twice in the past two weeks and couldn’t recommend enough. Amazing food which is super affordable and no corkage for BYOB. Lovely attentive service too

Wonderful experience, food was amazing, great staff, also chef came to check on us. Wonderful team , customer service 10/10. Will definitely go back 💯

Really enjoyed the curry and the service was extra special! Thank you

Fantastic restaurant. Great service. Best food in London. Quasim & Faisal are brilliant - another great reason to come back!

Ordered a take away for home delivery. The food arrived quickly and nice and hot. The various dishes was smacked with flavour and so delicious! 😋

I popped in this evening, not knowing the area. What a wonderful discovery! Excellent food, reasonably priced, and friendly knowledgeable staff. I will definitely come again next time I am in the area.

Fantastic Chicken Bhuna. And the rest.

Excellent traditional restaurant close to Brockwell Park. Very nice food and friendly staff -- and a good discount for those collecting their food!

Live in the area so I visit Khan's often. Food is great and affordable and the service is fantastic!

Probably one of the best restaurants I’ve visited. I went there with my family for dinner. Food was amazing, very friendly staff. Qasim & Faisal were really nice host & very welcoming. Ambience was great, we loved the music. It’s highly recommend 10/10 ✨

Khan’s catered for a recent party and I couldn’t recommend them enough! They were extremely helpful advising us on how much food we would need and making recommendations. It was excellent value for money with the portions being really generous and the food was extremely tasty as always.

Loved the service, and left stuffed having a taste of 6 different dishes, loved them all!

The khans of Brixton are a fantastic restaurant and takeaway. I recently contacted them to help me with an order for Eid and they really went above and beyond. I had 15 guests coming over to celebrate with me and they had a mix of dietary requirements, we decided to go for an all vegan/gluten free spread and they were fantastic in helping to advise how much I would need and what would be the best dishes. I pre-ordered the food two days in advanced with regular check ins to ensure everything was going to plan, and on the day they very kindly hand delivered the food straight to my door with some lovely little extras such as poppadoms and sauces. They provided me with enough biryani and vegan curries for seconds/thirds and even to give my guests to take home! All of my guests loved the food and I couldn’t be more grateful to how accommodating they were and how easy they made my Eid. No longer will I be cooking from the crack of dawn till gone night time, I was so glad to be able to enjoy my celebrations with my friends and loved ones stress free. I will DEFINITELY be making an order again. Thank you ❤️

The best butter chicken ever. Dangerous to live too close to Khan. As with must Indian restaurants you will order too much...but with Khans you will also eat it all. Great for the tastebuds but not so much for the waistline. A great experience and be sure to try it if you haven't already.

Really nice food, really friendly staff who accommodated a group of 15 of us. Will definitely be coming back

My friends and I have had the pleasure of dining at Khan’s several times now. Every time the food and service are both top notch. Qasim is a fantastic host and is very welcoming every visit. The prices are exceptionally reasonable and you won’t find food of this quality for this price anywhere in London. This week, we pre-ordered a whole leg of lamb for my brother’s birthday and it was fantastic. Already looking forward to our next visit!

Khan's hosted us for a Charity fundraising event - they were incredibly hospitable and made the event a roaring success. Brilliant food and service! Can't wait to go back.

Best curry in Brixton. Hands down.

Had a very nice takeaway lamb madras - generous portion,tasty with good amount of heat and fork-tender lamb. Very reasonable price The karai gosht is also sooo good

Just another Indian restaurant run by non india people, better than most of them with higher prices and not clear prices (like 1.50 extra for main) Though food taste is good. To me it looked like the hospitality is better for non-asians.

The chicken dhansak is just sublime

Delicious birthday meal with friends. I regularly get take-out from here but today I dined in. Delicious flavours, generous portion sizes and great value. Also, lovely staff and I was even treated to a birthday cake!

Brilliant experience, went as a large group and it is perfect as a BYOB place and the food was excellent. Qasim was especially helpful and really made for a special experience!

Best curry in London, affordable and delicious, friendly and welcoming service too, would highly recommend!

I love Mr khan's he runs a lovely restaurant wonderful delegation in n around he's the best if u ever want a authentic meal a lovely curry this is the place I love it🥰💜💙

Khan's hosted my birthday celebration for 30 friends. We had a fantastic evening thanks to Qasim and the rest of the team who were amazing. The food was delicious and they catered well for the vegetarians in the group. I'd highly recommend this restaurant. Thank you so much and we'll be returning for sure!

Amazing food, great service and perfect for large groups! Definitely recommend

The food here was amazing, we came last minute, they had a birthday party reservation but still was able to fit just in the back. Qasim was awesome as our server! And had good recommendations for what to get!

We were pleased to have this restaurant fairly close to our AirBNB. We had dinner there the night we arrived in London. We ordered some Lamb Balti, Chicken Bhuna, Shrimp with Saag, and Chicken Tikka Masala. In addition, we got some Saag Paneer and an Aloo Masala. The food is tasty...but mild. Personally, I enjoyed it. So much so, we went back 3 days later and got some take out. I would recommend this restaurant. The staff are really nice and helpful. 👍👍

My family and I have been eating at Khans in Brixton for years and even though we live far away, it's worth the trip as the food is amazing! Excellent taste, varied menu and topped off by first class service as well. Very highly recommended!

The best lamb I tasted in England, the service and music are incredible!

Booked a meal for my birthday, good food, good service, BYOB. Had a great time and very reasonable prices

I recently had a birthday party at Khan's and it couldn't have been more perfect. Not only was the food amazing but the service was impeccable. I had such a good time and I am very grateful to the team.

Excellent food and lovely staff. BYOB makes it a very affordable evening out too!

Wonderful restaurant with excellent staff, one of the gems in Brixton.

Good meal but we were put in the back room which was pretty bare and unprepared. There were tablecloths thrown over the fridge and sink to disguise them. The server was also overly controlling about what we ordered.

The food is always excellent from khans, but it’s the service that sets this place apart from other Indian restaurants. I wholeheartedly recommend them to everyone!

Delivery… food is the past has been delicious.. Chicken was burnt and stale, food was cold and had no taste and bread was soggy. So disappointed!

Really good place and excellent foods ! The service was excellent, Nothing to say more, just try it and enjoy !!

Excellent once again. Quasim and the team at Khan's went above and beyond to accommodate us, even offering us a complimentary (delicious) new dish. Would strongly recommend!

Best curry of South West London. This crazy 😃😃

Really lovely place, the vegan bundle is SO GOOD and such good value - I hugely recommend

The food was great and the service was quick! Really enjoyed the fun vibe for lots of young people celebrating. The atmosphere could be slightly improved downstairs I.e. mood lighting and less cramped, maybe some light background music but I would definitely come back again.

Khan's of Brixton is my favourite restaurant in area.The atmosphere and service were top notch and Qasim was very attentive even though it was a busy night. I definitely recommend this restaurant to friends and family!

EDIT: i originally posted this review a year ago and I had to update it because we’ve come back for a second round of our Christmas Curry this year and it’s been an amazing experience overall. Qasim and the team were so incredibly accommodating for our group of 46 people, with a short notice booking on such a busy period as December is! The food was outstanding as always and the treatment is immaculate. We had poppadoms, onion bhajis and samosas as starters, and a main with rice and naans each, plus BYOB, and it was such good prize for the amount of food we had. I cannot recommend this place enough, thank you so much for all your help guys!! ORIGINAL: This was such a nice evening for us! We had a group of 40 people for our Christmas curry dinner and Qasim and the team were amazing on every aspect. The meal unfortunately was on the same day as the England vs France semi final World Cup match, but they were able to organise a TV for us to watch the match during the dinner, which was incredibly helpful. They went above and beyond to make us comfortable and enjoy our meal, we had a great time! Thank you Qasim :)

Great food, great price, great service

Imaginative and tasty vegan set menu

Can I start by saying what an amazing host Qasim is. We felt right at home as soon as we walked through the door. The food was top notch and on par with the hospitality and that’s saying something! We will be back. Qasim thank you my friend, if only I could dance half aswell as you.

Honestly cannot recommend Khan’s enough - truly the most delicious food with the most amazing staff who make you feel so welcome and looked after. Qasim, Faisal and the whole team are the most amazing hosts, an absolute Brixton gem!!! x

Still going strong! Hadn't been for ages so was delighted by how it had maintained standards. A good honest byob curry house. Jalfrezi, Ceylon and karahi gosht stood out but all was good. Waiter was great bit of a character. Excellent location for drinks after as well. And saintsbury opposite for byob ease. Excellent

Really good food and very friendly :)

Amazing food and an incredibly kind waiting staff who go above and beyond to make your evening fantastic !!

So tasty and lovely staff, my favourite curry place

Such a fun evening, even though it was super busy they were so attentive and the food was excellent!

Absolutely brilliant spot. One of the best curry’s in London. Faizal was an amazing host. 100% recommend and will be back!!

Came here for my birthday, they made it very special. Food was delicious, service was great, prices were very good and BYOB! Would defo come again

Where do I start ! I went to Khan in brixton Water Lane and the food is next to none ! The decor was beautiful and the service was excellent but the food is on another level, I really enjoyed it and I’ll be visiting back very soon, please if you see this give it a try and I promise you that you’ll thank me later .

Worst spent £50 on take away in my life

I love this place, the staff are sincere, professional and know their stuff, and I'm lucky enough to have got to know them too. The food is very tasty, and the veg options are great too. Ideal place!

Delicious food, very good service, nice atmosphere

Gorgeous food and service, my family's been going for nearly 40 years

Delicious food from Khans, great spinach, prawn and pumpkin dishes, nans so tasty and moreish. Very good value for money & plenty for next day, ordered for 4 and paid extra pound to get some side dishes as mains

Another great meal from khans of Brixton.....🙏

Amazing time at khan's always! Nice food and friendly services

Worst Indian food I’ve ever ordered!! Tasteless, greasy, you should be embarrassed to serve this. I ordered from here after viewing the google review, what a mistake.Tried each dish and put it all in the garbage.

Delicious takeaway! Well priced, lots of vegetarian/vegan options, and a discount when collecting. Will definitely go again :-)

Fantastic service and great food!

A great Indian meal at a good price. I would thoroughly recommend a visit.

Haven't been here since 2018 when I last lived round here. Just moved back and first thing I did was check if Khans still bangs. It definitely does. Super reasonably priced cuzza and some interesting things on the menu which is nice to see. Ceylon chicken was nice and hot. Veg stuff was a little samey but flavours still good. Will be back IRL for sure.

I’m local & have had over 30 years of delicious from khan’s. I’m veggie & can rarely get well cooked food from a curry house. Vegetables cooked so long they’re barely recognisable. Khan’s is my only curry house & if you’re ordering, don’t forget their tarka dhal, it’s soo yum!

Amazing hospitality, I dinned here with a big group. Fantastic service & great food!

Amazing food, really good for groups, superb

food was bland, tasted like it was reheated in the microwave. ate it cause i was hungry and paid for it.

The best curry house in the Lambeth area. Qasim and his team are brilliant. I would highly recommend.

Unquestionably the best curry house I've been to in the area. Service, food and atmosphere were impeccable. Couldn't recommend any more.

Absolutely delighted with my experience at this restaurant! The flavors were a symphony of authenticity, leaving my taste buds dancing with joy. Qasim's exceptional service added an extra layer of warmth to the meal, making the evening truly memorable.

Qasim very good host. Always attentive. Very welcoming. Service exceptional. Food very tasty

Fabulous curry house! I always judge every Indian restaurant on its Tarka Dhal, and it was outstanding. I have a very high bar when it comes to curry, but this is one of the best Indian restaurants I've tried in London. Everything was great, including the warm welcome, and excellent service. Highly recommended.

Excelente local onde se come bem num ambiente agradável. Serviço de boa qualidade o que se aconselha. Digno de visita... Parabéns!

The food and service alone makes me want to eat here each time I'm in London. The owner was friendly and humble. Homemade Indian dishes were cooked to perfection. Seasoned just right. Everything was hot and made with fresh ingredients. The paratha was delish!

Food and service were great!! Very good value for money

Amazing food and very friendly service, would definitely recommend to anyone.

The quality of food here was exceptional. I had lamb in my main dish and it was honestly the most melt in the mouth I'd ever had. All the side dishes were brilliant too and had a hint of individual flair that you'd more expect from a very high end Indian restaurant. How this place wasn't rammed with punters is one of the great mysteries of our time. If you live in or around the Brixton area, you will not find a better curry. period.

The service and the food is over top class! Never had this great food in my life! Highly recommended!

Beat Indian food I ever had and great service 🤩🤩🤩🤩

Gave us snacks on the house, tailored dishes to our liking, BYOB, cannot recommend enough. Thanks to King Faisal for a great meal

Best curry house in Brixton. King Faisal made sure we had a great experience. Would recommend. Great food great service.

Best curry in Brixton. Absolutely incredible quality and amazing value for money!

As a man of culture, I can honestly say that this establishment is one of the most incredible destinations not just in London but quite frankly the world. A must visit for travellers and locals alike!!!! 11/10
