Mumbai Delight in Lambeth

The restaurant is a no frills but the food is the best, for a very reasonable price.

I have come back to update my previous review, which I have now deleted as Google does not allow more than one review per account. I came to this place a first time, asked for curry the spiciest that they could make it, and they did not deliver. A five year old could have eaten my dish. I thought that they had misunderstood me, so I came back. I specified very clearly that I wanted very spicy curry; I ordered the Kori Gassi. Again, disappointing. There's either one of two things happening here: 1. They're making an arbitrary judgement as to whether or not they think you can handle spice and then intentionally toning it down; or 2. They do not stock the chilies required to make a dish authentically spicy. If you're looking for good and spicy Indian food, I'll have to recommend The Coriander from now on, about a 10 minute walk from this restaurant. They will actually listen to you there and make your food appropriately spicy. Nice place and friendly staff, just lacking in attentiveness and flavor.

Amazing dishes, great atmosphere and brilliant customer service, thank you!

Amazing food and brilliant service, thank you so much! Our favourites were the dhal makhni and peshwari naan, but we ordered loads of amazing dishes for just two people!

We had a delicious meal here. Service was good, sweet staff. Definitely recommended.

Very nice food, service and atmosphere. friendly services

Amazing food, very tasty dishes done in a unique way. Everything was bursting with flavour. Also our waitress Swathi was incredible, she was very diligent, friendly and went above and beyond. She made the experience even more special.

Very beautiful inside the restaurant the food is the best you can choose from spicy, mild, not spicy , vegan, it has every kind of taste really recommend choosing this restaurant 👍

Good food, staff were lovely and inside was clean and well decorated! overall lovely dinner out

I visited here with some colleagues after a work event at the Kia Oval. This was the first place we came to, but it was such a lucky find. Lovely food, good selection on the menu, would visit again.

Amazing ambience and great atmosphere Tasty food and hope to be back soon Was served well by SWATI Thanks

Stumbled across this great restaurant, food was delicious, everything we ordered was really tasty and fresh. I had a glass of wine which was lovely. Service was really good too, highly recommend.

Great food and the music and ambience was very intimate and great for a date. Great service. Lamb mughlai was amazing.

Amazing food, goood price and cosy restaurant!

Food is very tasty and delicious and served hot

Excellent food - recommedn the bhaji and avocado chat in particular. Amosphere was great and staff were lovely. Will be back

Fantastic place! The food is incredible and the service is always attentive and friendly. Highly recommend the Kori Gassi! Will definitely be coming back.

service was great and it was an authentic restaurant! we had samosas, lamb briyani, butter chicken. everything was 10/10!

100% get the samosas! Best ones I have ever had (and I eat a lot of them) it was so yummy! The biryani was unmatched.

Fantastic food, service and atmosphere amazing 👏

Very good. Minor things. The nann could have been warmer, but overall, very happy.

Great food and authentic taste. Great service!

Amazing service. Thanks Swati ☺️

The butter chicken was absolutely delicious and paired nicely with the white wine spritzer. Our server was very friendly and attentive.

Absolutely delicious food, we had the butter chicken, chicken tikka, potatoes aloo, and cheese nan.

Amazing place for indian food in SW London!

Really enjoyed the hospitality, food and ambience of this place. Special thanks to Ajay ji 👍

Great food! Loved the Samosa chaat and paneer butter masala. Great service from Ajay and team 👏

My favourite Indian in London. A proper North Indian Delhi butter chicken tikka & chicken tikka masala. Moved out of the area but I come back here for the food

Brilliant food and service as usual, will come back as usual!

Good food, really liked the naan. Main could be little bigger. But all ok!

Food was very fresh and delicious. Delivered on time. and the customer service was excellent 👌 👍 👏

I visit London often and must say Mumbai Delight will be a restaurant I will return to. The lamb biryani was excellent and the service friendly and attentive. I highly recommend!

Great and very friendly service and really good and tasty Indian food. The chat bombs as an appetizer were awesome. Chicken and paneer were also delicious. We really had a good time and can only recommend the restaurant.

From the best Indian restaurant in London. delicious food with helpful staff

Very welcoming, warm and home like. The food is exquisite, and service is excellent.

This wasn't just the best Indian food, but some of the best food I've ever had.

Had an absolutely wonderful meal. Order a couple of appetizers and lamb biryani and all we're cooked incredibly. The meat was tender and seasoning was flavorful. Will be back next time we are in London.

Delicious vegan options, crisp beer and super friendly service. Highly recommended!

The Lamb Angara was sensational - best lamb curry I’ve had in London. The packaging is reason for losing a star. Combination of paper bag, unsecured lid, and rain nearly ruined my parka, though thankfully it was restored to new by the cleaners nearby.

Really brilliant place. Nicest Indian place I've been to in London.. and I do love a curry!

The restaurant is a hero in a sense The waiter is very nice and friendly The food is delicious and the quantities are plentiful I was happy to choose the restaurant, thanks Google

Taste of the food was ok, but portions are very small for the high prices. I also got a beer instead of a coca cola (how do you mess that up wheb we are the only ones in the restaurant?) . Hygiene was really bad as the floor was slippery from all the grease. Restaurant was really devoid of any atmosphere. They have the same song playing over and over, which is really annoying. I suspect this restaurant mostly lives off delivery, since the restaurant was mostly empty and they have delivery drivers constantly coming in through the front door which further kills the atmosphere. Was looking for an authentic Indian restaurant but I was really disappointed.

Delicious! Definitely recommend!

He utilizado este lugar muy ocasionalmente a lo largo de los años, por lo general para tomar una comida para llevar. Algo ha cambiado en las últimas visitas - para mejor. La calidad de la comida ha mejorado notablemente, y es raro encontrar un curry de cordero tan bueno como este. Es sabroso y tierno. Espero que sigan así.

Nothing crazy but good. A bit expensive for what we had in the plates

Visited this restaurant tonight with two others for a 9 PM dinner. The experience started off a bit shaky as it took 15 minutes for anyone to take our drink orders, and it was noticeable that the place was understaffed. However, once we ordered both food and drinks, the drinks arrived promptly, followed by the mains. Unfortunately, the timing was off as the rice came 10 minutes after the curries, by which time we were already halfway through our meal. The food itself was okay but not outstanding. The butter chicken was decent, and the lamb chops could have been better seasoned. The saag aloo, however, was a disappointment—it was so overly spicy that it felt like a completely different dish! For a meal for three, including four soft drinks and one beer, the total came to £129, which felt steep given the overall experience. With a few improvements, this place could become a hidden gem, but I wouldn’t rush back anytime soon.

Really recommend Kari Gosi. One of the best curries I have had in a while. Delicious coconut flavour, made with chicken thighs.

Pedí a Mumbai Delight muchas veces cuando vivía por la zona. Cada vez que recibía mi cheque, ordenaba la entrega desde aquí. Lo esperaba cada mes y la cantidad de alegría que sentía al saber que podría comer de Mumbai Delight era inconmensurable. Cuando mi novio me visitaba en Londres, nos traía curry, arroz y naan de aquí y veíamos películas juntos. Este restaurante, a pesar de que nunca llegué a ver el restaurante físicamente (aunque lamentablemente un pájaro decidió dejar que se rompiera en mí mientras caminaba allí) , ha jugado un papel enorme en mi último año de universidad. La comida de calidad y deliciosa como esta tiene que probarse al menos una vez en la vida. Su menú es colorido y único para otros restaurantes indios. Por favor, hágase un favor y visite. No te arrepentirás.

Owner very friendly and. Helpful

Been to a lot of curry houses in SW and this is one of the best. Recommend.

Delight by name, delight by nature. We went for a post graduation dinner and the atmosphere was perfect. The food was amazing and Chris the manager was an absolute gent full of charm ✨

Ordered take away from here. Quite an expensive curry in comparison to other similar restaurants, and unfortunately, the flavour and quality were incredibly average and not worth the price. Happy to pay extra for a great dish, sadly was not that case here.

Amazing food!! Friendly waitress. Definitely recommend!

Our first time going here & definitely the last, food was overpriced and service was outrageous, staff were rude & ignorant, definitely not a place i’d recommend unless you want to be disappointed, waiting over an hour for the food for it to be below average,just another money making restaurant that doesn’t care about the paying customers. My nan wasn’t happy.

Quiet nice atmosphere and great staff. Food was lovely and value for money.

Best Indian restaurant south of the river. Feels like my Grandma’s home cooking.

Delicious and healthy food! Clearly, freshly prepared ingredients 🫶

Super fast delivery and extremely delicious, fresh food✨️. Thank you 🫶✨️

Service was a bit slow, although everything else was perfect, food amazing, spot was very nice

Always good food, friendly staff, always clean

We will enjoy the food and we're very fussy. The service was good, the atmosphere nice and the people incredibly friendly I'd love to come back here again. The prices are also decent and fair.

Fantastic food, will certainly eat here again.

Great little local indian!! The food is spicy and delicious.

Very tasty food with different flavor explosions. Very good service, a tip is well deserved! Thanks for the great Indian experience😉❤️

I Visited for the very first time here. The infrastructure was pretty good and delicious food. The staff member Mohit is very kind and genuine guy with his serving manners . I’ll suggest to everyone for visit.

Excellent attentive service, nice cosy atmosphere, good quality dishes. The only drawback is for me it was slightly too expensive (£34 for one starter and one main).

Mumbai Delight has brought taste of Mumbai to London. If one is interested in authentic Indian cuisine with natural ingredients, Mumbai Delight is an automatic choice. Staff are very generous and out of box helpful. Food quality is good and dining experience is promising.

Absolutely incredible dining experience. Hands down among the best Indian restaurants I’ve dined at world wide.

Nice food. The lacha paratha and methi Chaman was too good.

Booked a table, turned up and told they’re full and table wouldn’t be ready for at least 30 mins. No apology. Don’t bother with this place, waste of time

Worth a short trip over the river and away from the crowds to get an amazing meal. Best meal in London on our trip, great service and cute atmosphere.

New in the city and looking for Mumbai taste, you are at right location. Mumbai delight was great experience for me and my husband, service was fantastic and welcoming from all the staff girls, definitely recommended.

I visited this restaurant today I found it on Google. I tired Indian vegetarian food the food taste was very fabulous i really recommend this Indian restaurant to every one who is vegetarian. The cost for two I pay 40p

Great food. Lovely staff. Chat Bombs are to die for!

Mumbai Delight in London was a fantastic experience for my family and me. The kids absolutely loved it, which is always a big win. The food was exceptional, with the sauces and flavors perfectly on point—exactly what we were hoping for. The service was equally impressive, with attentive staff who made sure we had everything we needed. It's not always easy to find a place that pleases both adults and kids, but Mumbai Delight hit the mark. The combination of great food, warm service, and a welcoming atmosphere made it a memorable evening for all of us. Despite trying other places, this one really stood out, and I’d highly recommend it for anyone looking to enjoy top-notch Indian cuisine in London.

Delicious local Indian with very friendly service. A pleasure to visit and delicious food.

Perfect, very kind and very good service. Always asked if everything is alright, and felt very comfortable there. We were also able to reserve a table at short notice. Our food was very delicious and we would definitely visit again!

Great food, albeit a bit more expensive. Very satisfied with service and nice flavors. Lots of food. The premises a bit rickety and loud. If you want to take a small detour to good Indian food, then go here!

Rude and arrogant waiter, amazing starters but unfortunately we didn't get to have a taste of the mains as we never receive them, even after waiting 2hrs! Unable and not wanting to wait any longer, we informed the manager that we want to leave. He didn't even apologise for the delay...

I went with a group of friends for dinner based on another friend's recommendation who regularly orders from this restaurant. The food was good, but the service was terrible. It took 40mins for our starters to come and we waited almost two hours for the main course. Manager was not apologetic about the delay, and let us leave after paying for what we consumed. Would never go again.

We were a group of 6. Waited for an hour for the starters to arrive. The main course didn’t arrive for longer than 2 hours. Had to leave without eating. The service was pathetic and the waiters definitely need more training on how to speak to customers. But the food(whatever we tried) was really good!

Lovely food, quick delivery and arrived hot!

absolutely fantastic, the food was the best curry i’ve ever had. Try the mild Lamb Mughla! 🤩

Picante, delicioso restaurante y amable bienvenida. Gracias por el regalo de Francia. ¡Creo que entenderás Quiénes somos!

The hood was cold the tandoori chicken I had never seen anything like it also onion blharji was burnt not worth what we paid

Very delicious food, especially the vindaloo and naan. The restaurant was helpful with a query we had regarding the order - thank you.

The food was so good and the waitress has been nothing but perfect! The best food we had during our stay in London 🇬🇧

Had a terrible experience at Mumbai Delight recently. The food felt okay, however got a bad upset stomach having the meal, also the service was slow.

The first meal we had in London . We orderd Bombay butter chicken and keema pav .Dint like the taste much .vry bland. Had a wierd taste . Had oregano and herbs in butter chicken . Dissapointed . 👎 Wouldnt recomend this place .

Fantastic we walked in and it was really good.

Very bad restaurant i ordered and my food Very bad restaurant i pay food i didn't reserve any foods one off staff was very rude

We decided to visit a local Indian place and made our way here and we are pleasantly pleasantly surprised. It was an amazing experience! Food: authentic and DELICIOUS! This has to be the best Indian food I’ve had in London so far. The garlic nan was impossibly soft, crumbly and buttery!!! The curries were spicy but really good and gosh the carrot dessert was heavenly Service: the 2 female servers were friendly and attentive to all our needs Atmosphere: nice as we were seated by the window and were able to do some people watching Overall would highly recommend!

First time Londoners. Taxi driver recommended Mubai Delight Owner was friendly and hospitable. Asked what our likes were and ordered for us. Food was amazing!! By far, the best Indian food we've ever had! A must when in London!

Good food, nice environment, fast service

Good food. Didn’t disappoint.. ordered 2 dishes to share. Portion sizes were decent too. Would come back again. Little hidden gem

Buena comida. No decepcionó. . pedido 2 platos para compartir. El tamaño de las porciones era decente también. Volvería de nuevo. Pequeña joya oculta

Chicken biryani was so good I came in twice this week to get it.

Nice little cozy place, food is delicious! Too late to take pics of food, but plates were wiped clean! ☺️

This place has high reviews but I had a very disappointing experience. We came in and stood at the front of the restaurant for about 10 minutes until we were seated. A couple behind us came in and even left because of how long we were waiting. We were seated finally but the service was extremely slow. At first we were patient since they may have been short staffed. Then we noticed the couple behind us and several people that came after us were getting their meals and even leaving before we received our order. I simply had the Dal and Peshwari nan. My friend had calamari and butter chicken. She enjoyed her meal. My dal was not bad but just ok. The Peshawari nan was not good at all. No flavor and a little burnt tasting. I liked this meal the least of all the restaurants I’ve visited during my stay.
