Noor Jahan in Kensington and Chelsea - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Went for a day trip in London and spotted this. Food was amazing and all other Indian food places don't compare to this one. Would recommend and will go again.

Always great service and food. My go to place for a curry in Nottingham. Extremely good value every day. Staff recommending tasty dishes that I would usually get but now I order those from my more local takeaway

Sehr gutes Essen mit freundlicher und speditiver Bedienung. Die Stimmung ist etwas hektisch und laut; die Bestuhlung sehr eng.

We had a wonderful dinner with our two daughters at Noor Jahan. The staff took extra special care of us, making sure to recommend kid-friendly options for our daughters who are still new to Indian food. We will definitely return!

Asked to leave after main course, refused to serve tea and coffee, as they “were busy and needed the table” , though no one waiting. We’d only been in restaurant one hour! Service very poor throughout

There is a reason this restaurant has lasted so long. We first came here thirty years ago. There is a large selection of dishes, the quality is consistent and the food never disappoints. The staff are helpful and the food comes relatively quickly even when, as generally, relatively busy. A really excellent local and reliable staple.

We have been looking for a great Indian for a while and unfortunately the search will still continue. The service in this place is attentive and professional, the staff are efficient and very friendly. Unfortunately they are completely let down by the kitchen. The Mixed Grill was small and completely overpriced, with all of the individual items being the smallest I have ever seen in this kind of a dish. The meat in the curries was totally bland, overcooked and dry and it had clearly not been prepared in the sauce it arrived in, but thrown in afterwards. The curry sauces lacked flavour and they were puréed/put through a processor. Overpriced and disappointing.

We were seated downstairs in a basement like room. The walls, cutlery, plates and table cloths were all visible covered in soot from the kitchen and maybe fireplace. A lot of us felt at unease eating there in a dirty room.

Been a regular for 25 years, both eating in and taking out - not any more. Seriously gone downhill. I ordered a takeout which was at best mediocre/ tasteless, overpriced and the boxes were only half full. There are so many good restaurants in london offering value for money, take your business elsewhere.

Been coming here for 25 years. Always excellent, authentic food, served with quiet courtesy and professionalism in a warm, embracing, unfussy atmosphere.

We have been going to Noor Jahn for almost 25 ears. It is a great local restaurant. Food always great and the staff are all very efficient and polite. Also good value. Great local Chelsea Indian.

Ehsan, Suhel, Meher, Suhan offered amazing service. They recommended some amazing dishes to start with which we’re all tasty. The drinks were all quick. The quality of the food for the price is really good would definitely recommend to a friend.

it's a classic in Kensington and it feels like they're coasting on their reputation and repeat customers. Attitude is a bit arrogant and blasé. Food was OK but not as good as the prices would indicate.

Amazing staff that put together a menu for us from sour preferences and it was very well done! The staff was very nice and were helping us at the right moments. Very good food. Really recommend going there!

Ordered Take away for dinner, price online was £58.50. When collecting,the boss proposed to pay £50 cash or £64 by card. I didn't take the food and I'm sure HMRC will love that behaviour

My husband has been coming to this restaurant since he was a baby. We just had lunch here. The food is phenomenal. Everything we ordered is so good, I can’t wait to come back here for dinner soon! The manger couldn’t have been nicer to us even offered us a complimentary dish

Prompt service but average food in classic curry eatery in great neighborhood. I had chicken saag (spinach) and shared rice and naan with friend, all washed down with Cobra beer.

Came her with parents. Ordered far too much food and it was all delicious. Had vegetable samosas, onion bhajis, aloo and then lamb, chicken biriani. Papadums were so good we had a second serving. Had plain naan which was probably a mistake as it wasn’t so flavourful but it was plain. Total meal for four with 3 beers was £120. Staff was rushed but pleasant and professional. Definitely will go back.

My favorite restaurant in the world ! I’m so excited to get back to London and go have dinner at Noor Jahaan . Best Chicken Tikka Masala , amazing garlic naan and friendly staff . I can’t wait !!

Called them to make an order and the person I was talking to was extremely rude. It was my first time ordering and so I was asking very simple questions like how many people does one order of butter chicken serve, does rice come with the order, how many nan bread come in one order, etc. The person replied by saying they can’t ‘scan my tummy’ to know how much one order serves and said he was too busy to answer my questions and told me to refer to the menu (very unclear menu). I called again to file a complaint to the manager about this service and once the person on the phone knew I was doing that they said ‘ugh go away’ and shut the phone in my face. I was so pissed I even created my tripadvisor account now just to complain. Please don’t order from this place, there are many other amazing local restaurants that have welcoming staff.

Great food, lovely atmosphere, friendly and professional staff. I have been going here for many years and yet to find a better Indian restaurant!

Primera vez con ganas de probar indio local. Llamé para hacer la reserva, fue de mala educación y dijo que visitara el restaurante para entrar. Fue rechazado y salido corriendo tocando mi hombro derecho para ser precisos. Ni siquiera reconoció ni se disculpó. Simplemente interrumpió groseramente y nos hizo salir. El caballero. . . de hecho no gent - dijo el hombre, y cito “¡lárgate! ”. Totalmente repugnante. Manténgase alejado de ese establecimiento vergonzoso, mezquino y poco profesional. Buen día.Amables, Karen.

Pedimos y tardó 1 hora en llegar la comida. solo había 2 camareros, por lo que fue un ritmo extremadamente lento. Cuando llegó la comida, esperábamos que valiera la pena esperar tanto. pero el pollo y el cordero no tenían sabor. Pensamos que el pollo al curry tikka sería picante pero resultó ser muy dulce.

En nuestra última visita a Londres fuimos a este increíble restaurante indio y tengo que decir que nos encanta. La comida era absolutamente deliciosa y el servicio maravilloso, la camarera siempre tiene una sonrisa. El lugar es pequeño y siempre está lleno, por eso es necesario reservarlo primero. Lo recomendamos mucho.

平日夜9時くらいに行くと、ほぼ満席。ちょうど良く席が空き、すぐにテーブルを用意してもらえた。メニューはスペシャリティ、チキン、ダック、ラム、シーフード、サイドなどに分かれて、その中から色々チョイス。タンドリーチキンやエビなどのカレーにチーズナンをチョイス。さほど辛くなくて食べ易い。タンドリーチキンについてたソースが絶品！他のカレーとも相性良くて、美味しく食べました。週末なら入れなかったかも…ってくらいに人気店でした。

La comida era normal, excepto el dahl que era inferior a cualquier versión que había comido en mis viajes por la India. Las lentejas estaban trituradas, pastosas e insípidas.El restaurante debería dedicar menos esfuerzo al servicio (que es excelente) y más tiempo y esfuerzo a la cocina.

Walked in off the street News Years Eve without booking a table and the staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. The food and the atmosphere were lovely. I would definitely recommend this curry house.

Visited restaurant twice on a recent trip to London. As a vegetarian there are lots of options. Went with a large group both times and the staff were knowledgeable and attentive. Would highly recommend

Lived in the area for 20+ years and no where is better than Noor Jahan! The service is impeccable and the food is ridiculously delicious

Behövde inte gå långt från vårt hotell på samma gata för att få en god middag. Betjäningen var snabb, nästan intensiv - men det funkade. Maten var smaklig. Kan gå dit igen!

Ambiente piacevole e rilassante. Menu ampio. Buoni i sapori e la qualità. Servizio molto attento. Prezzi alti

We went there for a dinner. I was very impressed with hard working staff, very nice, helpful and friendly. Restaurant seemed to be clean and our food was outstanding! Would go there again!

Molto buono e con ampia scelta, servizio veloce e cortese, locale piccolo ma confortevole, un indiano classico in zona Kensington

Very tasty food and very considerate staff also considering our young children (also including recommendations w.r.t. dishes our kids would like). We will be back.

The food is very good, service is friendly, diverse menu, plenty to chose from... I have been going to Noor Jahan for 10 years and food is always delicious. Not the cheapest Indian but definitely worth a visit if in West London.

An excellent Indian cuisine in a very homey, warm atmosphere. Great service. Very generous portions and very reasonably priced. Enjoyable, well located. Long- serving staff. Great experience. Am a regular visitor, always very happy.

Once again my wife and I had an excellent meal at Noor Jahan. It is one of our favourite restaurants in London and the best East Indian cuisine for our friends and us.

I have been eating at Noor Jahan for 10 years now. The same staff treat me well and the food quality is high. A nice Chelsea atmosphere of famlies, friends and dates.

La última vez que revisé Noor Jahan fue en diciembre de 2014. Fue la media Desde entonces, los estándares se han deslizado. Muchos de los platos ya no son "auténticos" sino que parecen venir preparados previamente por un mayorista. , por ejemplo, samosas muy opacas y pergamino - como gulab jamun La preparación y presentación de naan y paratha se realiza sin cuidado. Mis chuletas de cordero masala parecían ser un matrimonio tardío entre carne cocida larga y una salsa agregada apresuradamente. Ninguno de nuestro grupo se deleitó en los sabores y texturas. La gente dice que los restaurantes indios están luchando para encontrar buenos chefs como resultado de las restricciones pre - Brexit. Ciertamente, Noor Jahan es una decepción.

The food is tasty but also has quite a lot of butter, which makes it greasy. I would go there again, as the price is decent. I liked the Masala Chicken there.

Amigos muy recomendable Noor Jahan y no nos decepcionó. El ambiente está ocupado y quizás un poco brusco pero no nos importó, especialmente porque el personal se mueve rápidamente para satisfacer las solicitudes de los huéspedes. La velocidad con la que la comida sale por la ventana de la cocina, y con la que se recoge, para nosotros, fue divertida de ver en lugar de desagradable.

From start to finish you will be impressed. High quality ingredients provide the basis for succulent Indian food. With a very strong following amongst the cognoscenti of Chelsea from regulars to movers and shakers (even the royals have been known to eat here from time to time), you can't go wrong.

I was told to go for Indian food if I visit London.

A must in London. Best Indian food in town. I have been going there for the last 15 years and keep coming back! Ask for Ulul, he is the best!

A great local restaurant we try to use every Saturday through the winter at least. The trouble is so Does everyone else. You really have to book That is because the food is exceptional and the team delightful

Fantastic place, great food(especially house specials) staff made up so welcome, thoroughly recommend

Great food and friendly staff every time we come to Noor Jehan South Kensington. They even remember our orders. Consistantly good. No better place for a curry and a friendlly welcome if you are in this part of London.

Eight of us aged from 5 to 75 had dinner at Noor Jahan last evening. The food was outstanding and the friendly, professional service could not have been bettered. I thoroughly recommend this excellent restaurant.

Still the best Indian restaurant in southwest London and amazingly good value. Service is fantastic, be nice and they might let you order the off menu special lamb curry. If you like wine with your curry there are some great options with prices that are like going back in time.

Très bon restaurant ! On a adoré avec les enfants ! Un peu cher mais ca vaut le coup. Ne pas prendre de café par contre . On recommande fortement. Très bon accueil. Une bonne biere bien sur

I think this is the best Indian in London. Excellent food, very good service and great atmosphere. Cant really fault it. Nurul looked after us perfectly. I strongly recommend you try this place.

Second time to this place. Small restaurant with very nice food and affordable prices with really tasty sides dishes. Need to reserve as it is always crowded.

Iba a hacer un pedido en este restaurante. Pedí puris y pedí que no fueran demasiado grasientos. Me dijo que estaban fritos y que estarían grasientos. Le dije que era indio y hago puris en casa y sé que están fritos, pero que si los haces correctamente no están llenos de grasa. Luego me dijo que los hiciera en casa y que dejara el teléfono. Cuando pedí hablar con el gerente, dijo que él era el gerente y me dijo que podía presentar una queja sobre él y se negó a dar el nombre de los propietarios.

And loved it, I didn’t think Indian food would be so delicious, if you like vegetables, try the side dishes, especially the spinach-cheese one..just jammie!! The only remark I have is that the place is really small, so you can literally listen and follow the conversations of your neighbors..

As I have been a client of noor jahn for 35 years it's seemed right to have my birthday there. Children, grandparents and all we have always had a special place for Noor. The food is cooked to order just as you ask and the staff are always ready to help uninitiated guests and are always on point with their service. You can take away but it seems a shame to miss out on those fabulously spicy scents drifting from the kitchen.

My wife and I joined my sister and some friends for dinner at Noor Jahan in July. Great service, good food, and very reasonably priced for London. Easy to get to with Uber or a taxi. Certainly something different to try if you're visiting London for a few days.

We enjoyed the food. Has different varieties. If you donot like too spicy food , make sure to inform them. Overall we enjoyed the food.

My family loves this place. It is a must stop when we are in London. This place has made it hard for us to find Curry that we like in America.

Posiblemente el peor servicio al cliente que he tenido en cualquier restaurante. Fui un martes por la noche con dos amigos y estaba un poco sorprendido de cómo rápidamente la comida llegó. Parecía como si hubiera sido puesto en un microondas. Cuando el camarero vino a darnos nuestra comida que le preguntó quién era el arroz pilau tener y le dije que era yo. Porque yo era la única persona que en nuestro grupo, él entonces poner todo el contenido del plato en mi plato sin preguntar y se fue. Entonces, él volvió con el pollo y hice exactamente lo mismo. Que no sólo es grosero, pero increíblemente ignorante modo de servir en un restaurante que normalmente debería dejar los platos en el medio de la mesa. Además, una de las piezas de pollo cruda, pero dado cómo claramente el personal era grosero, decidí no quejarme sino a no volver. También nos sorprendió la factura ligeramente por escrito que no tenía de ninguna de las comidas. Cuando división, mi amigo que sólo tenía una copa y un pedazo de pan naan pidió a sólo pagar el total para aquellos. El camarero parecía contrariado que este era el caso. En general, nos dio la impresión de que eran una molestia para el personal y que querían comer y salir lo más rápidamente posible.

Ristorante indiano decisamente buono ; ambiente piacevole , personale veloce ed efficiente . Il mio preferito a Londra

Este es un lugar totalmente adecuado, es bueno para encontrar un restaurante indio con platos y sabores de High Street. Nada borde de corte y afortunadamente ningún esfuerzo para ser saludable. Londres tiene sin duda comida india mucho mejor, pero si estás en la zona este.

Accueil des plus horribles. Aucun intérêt pour les clients. Nourriture insipide et tout goûtait la même chose. Nous n'avons rien de positif pour cet endroit. Très cher et tellement pas chaleureux.

Una pinta estupenda desde el exterior, personal corriendo. Leímos el menú de la parte delantera y nos acompañaron hasta el sótano vacío para sentarse por un camarero agresivo, no gracias queremos sentarnos afuera, que nos dejó y esperamos para otra mesa.

I go to this exceptional curry-house with my friends, family and girlfriend and it is consistently the best curry available in London. The staff are extremely attentive and friendly, in addition to the most delicious freshly prepared food! Could not recommend it highly enough.

My wife and I stopped in here based on a personal recommendation and were impressed. The service was top notch and the curry was pure magic.

Food is pretty ok, not the best Indian around but ok. Unfortunately the service is really rather rude and the price tag a bit on the heavy side.

Nunca tinha ido em um restaurante indiano e foi uma ótima experiência! Diferente do que vi escrito aqui, os garçons...

Their food is delicious and we tend to order for a take away as the service can be a little bit rushed at the restaurant and the venue itself could benefit from a face lift. However, if you are after excellent Indian food then go...

From the outside, it looks like your typical Indian restaurant in London. White table cloths and napkin and waiters dressed in white shirts in black waistcoats. But boy oh boy, is it the best Indian ever! The poppadoms are fresh, served with the usual chutney...

Since the Star of India closed around the corner, this place has been difficult to get a table in on Friday and Saturday. Very popular almost to the point of being manic. The food is good if you can get in. We were initially offered...

Having been to this Indian restaurant before and enjoyed the food we decided to go again whilst down in London. As with a lot of restaurants in London at the weekend it was very very busy . It seemed as though they had craned far...

Popped in after going to the Drayton Arms theatre. There were a few tables free. The welcome was warm and...

Food is really average and served with no attention. Traditional dishes with any real specialty on offer With my daughter...

Excellent Service asked the waiter to recommend something and he did so. Lamb Curry and Dhal on the sideline. Atmosphere...

We booked at this restaurant on our holiday in London. The welcome was so cold that my wife told me...

Not the most mind blowing Indian food I have ever tasted, but for a local curry house in the neighbourhood...

C'è sempre gente in piedi che aspetta, il cibo é buono, servizio velocissimo. Naan integrale e caldo, pollo al curry...

Frankly the food was well below par, we ordered two separate chicken dishes and the chicken was absolutely bone dry. It was as if the chicken had been pre-cooked, left in a fridge for days and then warmed up and dropped into the sauce. A sauce that was not fresh and tasted like it had been microwaved.

We come here regularly and the food really is fantastic. The only problem is that it's a victim of its own success and small size. Consequently, the staff, unless you're the last sitting of the evening, are always hurrying you along so they can get the table back for the next lot.

Fui el 18 / 10 / 2017 para la comida. Estaba abierto hasta las 11:30 PM. Llegué a las 9:30 PM. Yo estaba sorprendido por el comportamiento del personal. Pedí un asiento. El personal dijo que no tome más orden. Así que me fui. Después de unos minutos me envió uno de mis amigos británicos. El mismo personal se portaron bien con él y tomó su pedido y dijo estar totalmente cómodo. Así que ver el racismo. Estos pakistaníes, Bangladesh y Sri Lanka en la India la gente Nombre de restaurantes y no entretener a los indios. Un racismo! ! Sin duda evitar este tipo de restaurante.

Delicious meal. A bit crowded and noisy, and you get the impression the wait staff wants you to move on as quickly as possible, but a perfect place to get a good meal in the neighborhood.

Tesco microwave curry, undercooked chicken and yesterday's pappadams. Total disaster of food. Don't order house wine because it is distilled urine with radish. Service was good though, truth be told.

An absolute disgrace. Service was an embarrassment. Waiter dropped plate on me when collecting plates, no apology, just a glare. When it came to paying bill, total cost seemed a little too high, however the receipt was a handwritten scribble. When asked for breakdown, turns out the servers had overcharged us on multiple items, yet rudely and aggressively blamed us for them. After asking to speak to manager, manager was equally rude and didn't even apologise. Ended up as a shouting match between 3 of the staff and myself, in front of other customers. One phrase of "its only £5 why are you arguing about this?" really demonstrates how much of a disgrace this restaurant is. I dont care if it is 5 pence or 5 pounds, it is a matter of principle. Just because you use handwritten receipts, you cannot add extra dishes to the bill for fun and hope it isn't noticed. Then to behave the way they did when caught, it was unbelievable.This entire team needs a lesson on manners and customer service. The whole experience was an absolute farce. Really wonder how many un-knowing customers have been overcharged for dishes on handwritten receipts over the years...Also, I understand this restaurant offers a "cash discount" when ordering take aways? Not sure if this helps with tax purposes but sounds dodgy to me. In summary, stay away at all costs. No customer should be treated like this, especially at a place that charges the prices they do. If you do choose to go any, CHECK YOUR RECEIPT CLOSELY.

Great traditional Indian. My Chelsea favourite and I've lived in the area for 3 decades.Never had a bad meal here but had some real corkers.

Most Indian restaurants are usually a feast for vegetarians. Surprisingly Noor Japan is very disappointing on this front. The veggi biryani was very disappointing. Conversely the chicken dish was very good. Atmosphere good, prices reasonable, service good. Busy place. Would return ....but can't really as my better half is vegetation and too little for her to choose from.

We decided to come here as we remembered it being good a few years back. One guy that was serving us was very friendly I think he was the owners son but after receiving our mains we found a small black hair in the food so we complained and the owner came over and told one of our group that it was his hair even though he had long brown hair after arguing with us about it for about 5 minutes he said we didn't need to pay for that dish. I wasn't happy about it so we ended up complaining about the owner (terrible way to treat customers) also it was my mums birthday and we gave them a cake to bring out and they placed the cake on the table with the box of candles next to it, never ever have we been to a restaurant and they haven't lit candles and carried the cake out for us to sing happy birthday. We will not be returning and have been telling friends and family about the way the OWNER spoke to us, never have we experienced anything like it.

Noor Jahan is such a wonderful Indian restaurant!!The food is amazing!!! so many dishes to choose from!! and so tasty!!Service is very good!!! and so friendly too!!Wonderful atmosphere!!!

One of the (possibly many) underestimated small Indian restaurants in London. Excellent food, fine service, nice price. What more do you need? The korma dishes are perfectly spiced to pair with dry Riesling (whether or not this was the plan). Not exactly on the corner with Old Brompton Road, so you have to look north just a bit. Have never had a bad meal here; always good, actually. When you order takeaway, you can receive a small discount for paying cash instead of using a card. Extra nice!

The institution and the staff have been here forever.Friendly fast service for a well healed clientele. Busy but never too noisyReliable and delicious.

We have been going to this small restaurant for well over 10 years and we still like it very much. Quality of food is very good at a reasonable price something that is very difficult to find in London and in that area in particular. Booking is recommended

Went there with an Indian friend who helped with me choose from the very large menu. Great food. Great wines. But one or two of the waiting staff were not very inviting: it didn't look like they wanted to be there!! And my jacket still smells of curry - after 12 hours!

Always an incredible dining experience, from the friendliest staff to the best curry around.

Tried this local place that was near my hotel. There was an extensive menu and the food was outstanding. I had the grilled lamb chops which tasted fantastic. I thought it was very reasonably priced.

Very nice restaurant, good Indian food, friendly staff.

A decent mid ranging curry house, nothing stand out to recommend it above the pack, but on the other hand I can't really fault our meals or the service we received on the night. A safe bet if you fancy a curry in the west end

I went to Bina Gardens last night for dinner with four business colleagues. I was asked to order for the entire table as they had all approved of my menu choices previously. As per usual, the bustling waiters were efficient and all food orders were delivered without much delay. I ordered some papadoms as well as some other popular appetizers such as vegetable samosas, onion bhaji as well as some shrimps marinated in a spicy tomato sauce. For the main course, I ordered some chicken tikka masala, pilau rice, Bombay potatoes, some daal as well as some Raita. This was all complemented by some onion naan bread. We ordered some Cobra beer to go with the meal. The food was extremely tasty, the portions generous and the service was first class. I am a regular patron of this establishment when in London with a craving for UK style Indian fare. Highly recommend this South Kensington neighborhood icon.

Needed a table for two and we were put on a small table right at the back in a dark corner. The waiter seated us, took the neatly folded serviettes, opened them and simply left them in a mess on each side of the table for us to place on our laps! When our food came the waiter unceremoniously took the left over papadoms placed them on my wifes side dish, without asking. and then placed the main dishes down.The foid was good but the general manner of setvice was so brusque and offputting that it spoiled our enjoyment. To add insult to injury they automatically billed for service at 10%.

We ate here twice in eight days as my son enjoyed their Butter chicken and we were staying nearby. It is neighborhood place and off the tourist track. They also made something of menu for us which was sweet.Good portions and attentive service. I highly recommend!

The food is above average but the service is nothing to write home about. However, what I did not realise until I left the place is that they trick you into paying twice for service. First they put a 12% "voluntary" fee on the bill and then hand you the device asking if you would like to add service fee but fail to mention that it has already been added to the bill. I wonder how safe it is to eat food from people with such integrity or lack there off

I got there, they said that "only phone reservations are valid" and that website reservations must wait until all walkins have been seated. So we left.
