A top evening. A well established Putney restaurant that cooks brilliant Indian food. The food and wine menus are helpfully compact, making choices easier and I reckon heightens the results! Delicious all round… perfectly cooked rice, nans, samosas , baked prawns ….and the curries!!Easy to get to, clearly full of locals ( all ages) and family owned. The service was tops too. And they own the wine shop next door. Thank you again.

We’ve eaten at Ma Goa many times over the years. Food and service always great. This time we had the Ragra Samosas, lamb shank special, Ma’s Baigan (the aubergine dish which we always go for), a chicken jalfriezi type dish and a chicken biryani. They were all delicious. Thoroughly recommend.

The food and service was great. We were a group of 9 and were beside a group of about 10-12 who were the noisiest people in the world, so it was very difficult to hear anyone else at our table. No fault of the restaurant of course.

We absolutely love Ma Goa & have brought friends there quite a few times now. Lovely food, great setting, helpful staff... BUT one recent change I'd honestly request you reverse asap: the phone based ordering - we found it unnecessarily complicated and took the joy out of surveying a menu. Please get rid before we come back next time!

This is Indian food as it should be. Clearly cooked from scratch with fresh authentic ingredients. Each dish distinctive and a pleasant change from the usual standard fare. We ordered two of the specials, chicken on the bone and okra with coconut among other delicious dishes. Also they were happy to change the time of our booking at short notice. Excellent value and service, a shame we don’t live in London to visit more often

Was very disappointed to be told I had to leave by 8pm. Which only allowed 1.30hrs rather than 1.45hours indicated and it was my birthday. If I had of realised beforehand I would have gone elsewhere. Waitresses lacked a spark/friendliness. Shame they don't offer full pints rather than 2 thirds.

The food is excellent and the menu interesting and innovative. It isn't cheap - and they do charge extra (for condiments like mango chutney!!) but it is well worth it, you'll want to try everything on the menu. The atmosphere is great too and they've been great at keeping doors open for fresh air and making everyone feel comfortable in the restaurant.

A word of explanation about the downvoted questions - the food was delicious as always and the service charming. Because we had to be seated outside, and because the main railway line runs at the end of the property, the ambience was very noisy and the temperature freezing - neither of which were the fault of Ma Goa. We are regulars there, and we'll come back, but not until the weather gets a little warmer!

Whilst I am always disappointed by the food in most local Indian restaurants Ma Goa is outstanding. As an Indian with a discerning palate even though I say so myself, the food here is certainly up there with the best.

We frequently visit Ma Goa as it's one of our favourite restaurants and delivers every single time. This time we sat on the balcony because there weren't any tables inside - absolutely perfect, nicely heated and we were alone out there so extra romantic. Food was exceptional as always, service friendly, quick and helpful, and value excellent for the amount of food and drink. Cannot wait to be back.

In general, I have had better experience at this place. So this might be down to Vivid that the restaurant failed me know his time. But Vivid or not, if you are serving customers then you don't make them wait 15 minutes to place their order, you don't make them remind you three times to get their drinks, you don't serve them cold lamb chops starters. Food was okay, but Open table menu was different from what we were given... almost 75% of menu items weren't available... utterly disappointing. Final straw was when we asked to look at the dessert menu, we were told we can't get dessert because it was 10 minutes to 10 pm and they had to close by 10 pm sharp, else they would get fined. So why on earth did no one come to tell us sooner that if we wanted dessert, we should place the order soon? Absolutely shambolic wedding anniversary meal.

I’ve always ordered takeaway from here and having been caught out by the Sunday closing, I had to go elsewhere. Which meant that I value their cooking over other restaurants.

Food was outstanding as ever, only downside was that my fish curry wasn’t as spicy as last time - but that’s just a personal preference! <br /><br />We had the prawns to start, and always love the paneer veggie dish.

An interestingly sad experience to be sure. My friends and I had set on having a curry in clapham with one of our friends giving it a reference. We heard about the byob rule - fine to us - and wanted to get a beer before going in. When we went by the restaurant before and a worker really wanted us to come in and sit for a meal who right after we had bought our beers. After buying them and bringing them to the restaurant, we were met with quite hostile attitude. The new worker made a point of us having to order quickly and leave as they were closing. We were a bit shocked since the previous worker, who we did not see after, said we should come in and have a curry. At one point, one of the workers thought our friend had finished his beer, knocked over the bottle by mistake and then shook it afterwards to see if there was anymore which there was quite a bit of beer in it, very unprofessional. To top it all off, they started letting in more customers to sit and eat curry, so I guess the closing time was incorrect! Google had informed us the closing time was later than the workers had said to us, but they were adamant and walked away when we questioned it. Our food was unfortunately average, particularly our friend who had lamb as he said it was quite chewy. Overall, I hope the manner of the employees does more than the food could as it really was unprofessional.
