Salam Namaste in Kensington and Chelsea

No podía fallar en todo este restaurante. Convenientemente situado cerca de nuestro hotel en Bloomsbury. El servicio fue excelente y acogedor. La comida era un toque moderno en la cocina india. Había algunos grandes cócteles, incluyendo algunos sin alcohol. Mi esposa probó un Nimbu Pani y estaba delicioso. Los entrantes eran muy inusuales. Tenía un Tandoori Portabello relleno de higos y nueces. La red iba a morir. Tenía el Alleppey King Prawn Curry Wow increíbles mezclas de especias. Había varios postres, incluyendo un Gulab June con helado de coco. En general 5 *

Essen sehr lecker, Personal sehr zuvorkommend, gutes Bier. Jederzeit wieder hierher, echt eine Empfehlung wenn man etwas will, dass nicht komplett von den Maßen überrannt wird.

No fui al restaurante pero pedí una comida para llevar. El plato de Kebab como principal que se entregó no era nada como las imágenes, la comida sabía rancio, similar a pre-cocinado que se recalentó. El pollo era como cartón y el pescado debería haber sido lubina, pero recibimos salmón que sabía mal. La porción en la imagen parecía que sería suficiente para 2 personas, pero era para 1 persona, las porciones son pequeñas y sobreprecio. Nunca pediría desde aquí de nuevo. Qué decepción. Si hubiera una opción para dar una calificación negativa lo haría.

Cuisine indienne de qualité. Carte variée. Les produits semblent être de qualité. Service agréable. Le patron est sympathique.

Excellent food and services . Very good value for Price . Lovely meals spicy. We came 3 Times and it was great ! We strongly recommend thid restaurant

Was so looking forward to returning to our once favourite Indian in London BUT it’s just gone downhill .. food not what it was .. management have a degree of arrogance unsupported by the average fayre .. we won’t be returning

We discovered this restaurant purely by chance last year when staying in Bloomsbury, so did not hesitate to eat here again on this year's pre festive season trip. Have to admit I think I ordered the same thing - saag paneer & onion bhajis - as I enjoyed them so much last year. I do appreciate being able to order two small plates/side dishes as opposed to a larger main course, although my friend's main did look as though I would manage the lot! I will make a point of having something different next year, as I have no doubt we will eat here again. The gentleman we spoke to was delighted we had made a point of returning, & I assured him I had written a glowing review last year & would do so again after this visit. It's a small but beautifully put-together dining room, with a lovely atmosphere & charming people.

I went here following a recommendation by a professional food reviewer. They were not wrong - totally delicious, fresh tasting, well prepared food, perfect amount of spice and new things for me to try. Looking forward to my next visit to work my was through an excellent menu!

We were really looking forward to having a meal at the Salaam Namaste. Previous reviews had looked promising and its location was very convenient for us. The decor isn't quite the lavish affair described on their own website, in fact it all looks a bit tired. No-one was there to greet us on arrival which we thought odd. Eventually, someone turned up and we were given a table by the window which we were fine with. We ordered a couple of beers and set about looking at menu. We opted for a keralan fish curry (with lemon rice), the hyderabad biryani, scallops and some popadoms and chutneys to start. The popadoms were fine. That's where it ended. The scallops (there were three and this was a main) were over cooked and lost in the overpowering taste of the sauce. )The spicing of the biryani was completely wrong for the dish, there was very little meat and it was dry. The curry was inedible (I discovered after having one mouthful). The rice had a wedge of lemon on top as garnish, there was no infused flavour of lemon at all. We told the waiter about the curry and he said he would speak to the Chef. Nothing happened. When it came to paying, we raised the issue with the curry again and after some time, the waitress agreed to take the price of that dish off the menu. Even with that concession and the fact that we'd booked via Open Table for an early meal offer, the bill was steep. The beers were overpriced even by restaurant standards. After paying, there was a further conversation with the waitress about our experience when we told that the chef was new and didn't know what he was doing. It was a shame we hadn't been told that beforehand ...

After some difficulty, we found the Restaurant. We were looking forward to set menu of £ 17.00 for Vegetarian and £ 17.95 for Non Vegetarian. When we asked for this, we were told that it is only for Take Away. The web-site does not make it clear and we were very disappointed. The menu given was very expensive and service was poor as only one waiter was working and could not coupe. The vegetarian dishes we ordered was over charged and 12.5% service charge is not acceptable as we did not get what we wanted. The lacha paratha was very cold and they did not replace it and in the end we had to have garlic paratha. There was exceptional delays and we got very late, having started our dinner at 5.30pm. The train strike did not help. We think some honesty and transparency of the menu is required.

Difficile de trouver un restaurant qui fasse l unanimité pour une famille de 6 dont 3 enfants, et pourtant le Salaam namasté a réussi. Les plats n étaient pas fades du tout. Certains étaient piquants mais pas trop. Nous avons tout aimé, du butter chiken, au poulet tandoori, en passant par le tika massala et le korma. Également le poisson était bon.

Rolstoelgebruiker. Vlotte toegang. Vriendelijk onthaal. Gevarieerde kaart. Voldoende manoeuvreerruimte. Pittig.

We visited here during a short stay to london. The food is delicious. It’s a small restaurant and super cosy. Nice if you want to escape the crowds. We did pre book as I can imagine it’s popular. Even though they haven’t officially got a kids menu this didn’t matter as our 8 year old thoroughly enjoyed trying abit of everything. The staff are really welcoming and we would definitely recommend for a tasty curry.

Lovely food and friendly service. Good value meal and very enjoyable, Interesting menu. Small family run/friendly atmosphere which left us with a amile on our face.

We found this place on TripAdvisor when searching for restaurants near our hotel. This was a less than 5 minute walk from our accommodation. We were easily able to book online, and the waiting staff were friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. The menu has your usual Indian favourites plus some more intriguing options. I usually eat veggie so was pleased with the veggie options. The portobello mushroom starter was unusual and delicious. I had the sag paneer as a main and kali dal makhani as a side with the lachcha paratha. Everything was very well balanced and gently spiced, without being greasy. The portions are generous and if we hadn't been staying overnight in a hotel and travelling the next morning, I would have asked to take the leftovers home. My dining partner had the chicken lollipops for starter and said they were very tasty and crispy, and the goan sea bass main. Special mention goes to the onion and green chilli naan and the chutneys tray. It all tasted delicious and free of any additives. We had wanted to try the chef's dessert platter but it wasn't available on the night we visited. Our waitress recommended the gulab jamun, which we washed down with the nicest ginger and masala chai I've had. Prices are very reasonable, and the atmosphere was nice, a mix of couples, young families and some larger groups of friends. We're not regularly in this part of London but any time we come back, we hope to revisit this little gem of a place!

Having stayed in Bloomsbury many times over the years, & at a nearby hotel twice now, I have no idea why we hadn't noticed this restaurant before - it's less than 5 minutes' walk from the hotel, ideal for dinner at the end of a busy day full of walking. Delightful friendly staff, efficient & courteous service, & a really lovely menu with quite a few dishes that were new to us. A restaurant near where I live in the north east of Scotland, now sadly closed, was the first time I had experienced Indian 'fine dining' & Salaam Namaste was the second, & I was so pleased it more than lived up to the standard of my much missed local venue. You can mix & match starters or 'small plates' (my favourite way to eat), share dishes, pretty much do whatever takes your fancy choice-wise, which is lovely. Must admit to having onion bhaji & saag paneer - always my benchmark when eating in a new to me Indian restaurant - simply superb, & the saag paneer was a little differently prepared to what I've had in (many!) other Indian restaurants in various locations. Definitely on our list to return to, hopefully next year on our annual visit (if not before) & a huge thank you to everyone here for making our dinner such a delicious & enjoyable occasion.

The food was excellent and reasonably priced. There is a full range of excellent curries. The service was always excellent. It was easy to make a booking. We ate there several times during our London Visit. The restaurant is slightly out of the way so it avoids the crowds although it was always well attended.

We were intrigued to see how the food would be based on the mixed reviews but were very pleasantly surprised. Having dined at Dishoom a few weeks earlier we found the veggie side dishes we had like the Dal and the saag to be as good, if not better. Everything was very tasty and the staff were friendly. Would definitely return.

A little gem with attentive staff and excellent dishes. We were happy with all our choices and will likely come back again if in the neighbourhood

5 out of 5 because the food and service was superb - never had Dry Crab before but it was lovely as a Starter. We ordered a Goan Sea Bass curry and a Lamb Banjara curry to share, which were both superb. Garlic Naans were also nice and felt very guilty leaving most of them, as we were both stuffed. Staff very attentive and we had a really nice meal…

Nothing special, average indian food in both taste, inovation, presentation and value. Expensive for what it is and a 12.5% service charge to make our night!

Sallam Namaste used to be an exciting 'destination' restaurant, presided over by an adventurous chef from Karachi who created a really distinctive fusion cuisine. He must surely have left, since it is now an industry-standard 'Indian' restaurant. Sauces are heavy, especially one combined with delicate scallops. Portions of meat and fish are small-- part of the general price cutting in tough times. A meal for three with drinks cost over £180. Like many restaurants in this area it is drawing in very few midweek diners, and i fear for its future. Lovely waitstaff. But it is no longer exceptional, just OK.

Many items in the menu were not available, this on a Saturday night! The quality of the food was very poor. I was served a different starter than the one ordered, and also a different main than the one ordered, this without telling me why they had unilaterally changed my order! Couldn’t ask why as the waitress was rushed off her feet. The chicken was bone dry and tasteless, the pilau rice was tasteless, the prawns weren’t fresh! The only decent things we had were the poppadoms, the nan bread, and the onion bajis. Will never visit again!

Came in as the smell was soo inviting whilst our son was in hospital. Was not disappointed. From the dips and home made poppadoms, tikka masala and chicken dhansak were soo full of taste and flavoured definitely recommend a visit. Friendly atmosphere and welcome ensured...

Average curry on our first night, so expensive for what we got, I can’t recommend it I’m afraid as had better takeaways, wine ok

Staff were very attentive and accommodating. Food was good and had a lot of vegetarian options. Great spot to come for dinner with family or friends.

We went mid-week and were the only customers. Suddenly we had a strong waft of cannabis smoke. We asked the waiter what was happening - he blamed the neighbours next door and asked us "don't you like it", we replied no. He shouted something out...

We had a business lunch here & I have to say that both the food and service were amazing! We got 5* treatment from the minute we walked through the door. The waiter also recommend a few dishes to us, this was great as we...

Really nice interesting food but the staff need to lower the music so customers can talk and hear. It is to create an ambiance not smother the customers. Very attentive staff serve much above average Indian dishes of some complexity. Highlights are the duck and...

Ordered a lockdown takeaway that arrived 45 minutes early. It was missing a main course. Ordered through Deliveroo. Contacted the restaurant- the attitude stank. My options were to either wait an hour for the missing main course to arrive or walk down myself and collect...

We found Salaam Namaste just by a simple google search and what a find! The food was not the usual homogenous brown stew with assorted meats which so many central London Indian restaurants are. The food was interesting and decidedly fresh and homemade. The venison...

Located in a side street near Russell Square. Excellent atmosphere in the restaurant, great service and he even took time to remember my name. Food was excellent, can really recommend the Telapia Curry. Reasonable priced, 10 stars all round. Will definitely visit again.

Salaam Namaste is a delicious place hidden on a street by Corams Fields. The Laal Mass is the best, it is lamb covered in spicy sauce, and it goes very well with rice and naan, I love to make a sandwich with them. The staff...

During Eat Out to Help Out, and throughout September, we have discovered and revisited Salaam Nameste in Bloomsbury. This is a top quality Indian eatery five minutes from Russell Square – not far at all from Kings Cross or even Euston. There is only one...

Location is on a very quiet street. As we walked up, we feared it would be lacking atmosphere - but in fact the restaurant was lovely, and clearly a popular place to eat. The food was amazing! We had soft-shell crab, which was an unusual...

The restaurant is on a quiet street and can be opened pretty fully to the street, which was nice on a warm night. The staff was uniformly friendly and helpful, and the chairs are extremely comfortable if you're lingering over your meal. Which you will...

This restaurant is a delight. The staff were welcoming and helpful without being obtrusive. The food is way above average for an Indian restaurant with some interesting twists on favourites. I particularly enjoyed the dal mahani. The portion sizes are large so be prepared to...

The food was excellent, I can recommend the coconut lemon grass king Prawns . The staff are very friendly and all the regulations are adhered to regarding Covid. The atmosphere was good with varying age groups all enjoying the night.

Our older group of 5 were the only customers,the attention from manager and waiting staff was helpful and not "pushy".Eventually it filled up with lots of lots of young people.The service and the food was exceptional, catering for every type of palate We had a...

What a find! Something for everyone, a really good vegetarian and vegan choice as well as excellent fish and meat dishes. Freshly prepared, tasty and beautifully presented. We will definitely be back. Very reasonably priced too.

Gem in the heart of bloomsbury, I went for dinner with my friend following very good reviews. The quality of the cooking and the flavours of the chicken korma abd the king prawns was a treat. The staff were very accommodating and friendly. Superb. Definitely...

After several weeks of lockdown, we were delighted to find a restaurant near us that would deliver in our area. We rang to double-check, and they advised us that we could order on the phone or online, to prevent the risk of infection with money...

I wanted to go somewhere I hadn’t been before so asked the concierge at my hotel for a recommendation nearby while in London on business. I will definitely be back.

I loveeeeee this place. The food is worth every penny and the staff is even better, I honestly couldn’t recommend enough! Would go again and try other things as they have a hugeeee selection of food and is vegetarian friendly too with not two options...

Amazing! Fantastic food, excellent service and ambience. We were kindly offered an UBER taxi to this restaurant when we arrived at the sister restaurant in Bloomsbury, which was closed for refurbishment. Very personable and would highly recommend this restaurant and the one in Bloomsbury too!...

We tried 3 starters, vege samosas, paneer and coriander chicken. The starters were fairly good however when the mains arrived, aside from the prawn curry and chicken curry, the remainder of the dishes (rice and grilled meats) were average, particularity because the grilled meats were...

Well balanced dishes, more than sufficient portions, and a clean and orderly place. Highly recommended!

We happened to visit this restaurant as we were shopping nearby and since it had good review we went it. The appearance is dull, moody and full of loud Hindi music playing. The restaurant was empty at 2100 hours and we were little sceptical about...

A bunch of us met for a Christmas curry and were blown away by the standard of food. Not your usual Bangladeshi fare, superb breads, the Indian red was also excellent. Recommended

Awful. They pushed the booking back by half an hour, then made us wait for 10 minutes outside when we arrived at the changed time. Cutlery was dirty. Service was slow, the beer was flat and warm. We asked for water for the table of...

Everyone said to try the Indian in London and if Salaam Namaste was everything to go by it was absolutely fantastic. The food and service were top notch. Highly recommended.

The food is absolutely delivious. Especially seafood moilee. The staff is very nice and polite. The place is small but always busy

Really nice food and friendly service but was let down when we got the bill and a pint of lime and soda was £5.95....so for a dash of squash and water??? Questioned with the staff and they said this was right as it was a...

What a great restaurant. Terrific service from the moment we walked in, and delightful food to match. Recommended reservations as the restaurant filled up quickly. A bit noisy was the only downside when the restaurant was filled.

This family run restaurant was a gem. Absolutely perfect serving and magnificent food. Reasonably priced. I could not have asked for better. Superb!

This restaurant has it all, great tasty food, really nice service - not over bearing but attentive and proper desserts! Well worth a visit. The mixed kebab sizzler was excellent, particularly the salmon tikka. Indian Chai was also nice.

We waited over 1 hour for our main courses to arrive. We complained. There was no manager on duty. So it seems that incompetents rule this restaurant when there is no boss on site. Once our food arrived it was good. I would return for...

Chose this restaurant because it was close to our hotel. Had the venison sheekh kebab, as it's an unusual meat for kebabs. Meat was earthy tasting as expected and a tad on the dry side. The green spicy sauce was a tasty accompaniment to balance...

I was recommended to have a thali by the waiter but also requested the portobello mushroom, marinated & filled with figs, cashew nuts, raisins, green chilli, curry leaf & homemade cheese to start. This had a slightly sweet flavour, very delicious and I was also...

Treat customer like animals and food is very blend. Manager isn't responsive and not consideret at all. Should not visit this place.

Really excellent food. The kitchen adds a fresh twist to make a fresh, interesting and delicious take on Indian cuisine. Recommended!

A modern twist of Indian cuisine. Very nice and friendly staff. Excellent tasty food. Really a restaurant that we want to visit again. Good value for the money!

Having seen the reviews I decided to get a take away and I can honestly say that it was one of the worst Indian meals I’ve ever eaten in London. The quality of the meat was deplorable and the sauces below standard. The paratha bread...

Where do I start... The service was poor, the daal makhani was atrocious the butter chicken was so sweet it was more like dessert. The waiter got our order wrong several times and kept blaming us. There is certainly nothing authentic about this restaurant. Nothing...
