Sankalp Restaurant in Milton Keynes

Nice Indian cuisine, The service is attentive, with staff like Sourav going above and beyond to ensure guests feel welcome. Whether you're craving a classic dosa or exploring other South Indian specialties, Sankalp delivers both flavor and excellent service every time.

Good food, quick service, rather large portions (at least for me!). It's very much 'cafe-style', but I quite like the authentic feel of the place.

I had a fantastic dining experience at Sankalp - The Taste Of India. The food was authentic and full of flavor, and the ambiance was great. Special thanks to our waiter, Saurav Upadhyay, for his excellent service and friendly recommendations. Highly recommend!

Feels like we are eating food in India, the food is really tasty with friendly environment must visit if you are Indian food lover ..

Sankalp Restaurant in Milton Keynes offers a mix of experiences that left my family and me feeling somewhat underwhelmed during our visit. The service was notably slow, which was a significant downside. We found ourselves waiting 25 minutes for our main meal to arrive before the starters, which is quite unusual and frustrating. This delay really dampened the overall dining experience. As for the drinks, I ordered a draft beer that unfortunately did not meet expectations. It lacked the freshness one would typically expect from a draft option, making it less enjoyable. When it comes to the food, it was decent but not exceptional. The flavors were satisfactory, but nothing stood out as memorable. Overall, while Sankalp has potential, they certainly need to improve on their service efficiency and consistency in food quality. I hope future visits will provide a better experience.

We had a dinner yesterday with our Family, its been our third visit for birthday celebration. Food was amazing, service was good. They do chocolate brownies at the end for birthdays, that made our celebration memorable. Overall its good experience.

The taste of their food is very delicious and they provide very good service.

I just recently had the pleasure of dining at an incredible Indian restaurant in Milton Keynes, and I can't say enough good things about the experience! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming, filled with the rich aromas of spices and the lively chatter of happy diners. The service was impeccable. The staff were attentive, friendly, and genuinely seemed to care about our experience. Each course was served promptly, and the timing between dishes was perfect. Now, let's talk about the food! Every dish we ordered was a masterpiece. The flavors were authentic and vibrant, showcasing the true essence of Indian cuisine.we had tried different types of dosa and starters and drinks. It was clear that the chefs put a lot of thought and care into their cooking. To top off the evening, it was my son’s birthday, and the restaurant went above and beyond to make it special. They surprised him with a delicious dessert that was beautifully presented and absolutely delightful. This thoughtful gesture made our celebration even more memorable and added a personal touch to our dining experience. Overall, this Indian restaurant exceeded our expectations in every way. With fantastic food, exceptional service, and a warm atmosphere, it’s a place we will definitely return to. If you're looking for a great meal to celebrate a special occasion or just to enjoy some wonderful Indian cuisine, I highly recommend giving them a visit!

My recent visit to Sankalp Restaurant with my family was highly disappointing. The food quality was extremely poor, and for the high prices they charge, it was simply not worth it. The Masala Papad had stale tomatoes, making it inedible. Sev Puri had no feeling just Sev. The Malai Kofta was completely bland with no salt. The Paneer Tikka Masala had burnt paneer, ruining the dish. The Paneer Lababdar was watery, and lacked flavor. To make matters worse, the meal left me with a stomach ache. For such high prices, I expected much better. The only positive was the excellent service from the young waitress, but good service alone can’t make up for terrible food. This place desperately needs a new chef and a revamp of its interiors. Until then, I wouldn’t recommend to anyone.

Had a blast with my friends at the restaurant. The food service was top notch and the ambience was very good.

Very worse experience dine in .

Well their food is good but the portions are really according to the price .. you can same taste with sufficient quantity at other places so yeah not up to the mark

I’ve visited the restaurant twice this month. All the staff were very polite and attentive to our needs. Food was really tasty with all the spices. We had few of veg starters they were all full of flavour and great presentation. The manager Kinal was kind and helpful with our dietary needs too. Highly recommend this restaurant for its vegetarian dishes and ambience. Thank you to the chefs and everyone. 🙏🤗🥰

Very Nice service, food was delicious, enjoyed the ambience

Very nice service location is good and food was tasty, felt healthy was not to oily or spice was just right.

Amazing food and a very supportive staff.

Had a bay shower programme. All service was very good

Sankalp has awesome Indian food. Once anyone goes will have plethora of foods to choose. I would recommend to stop and taste the veg/non veg thali for lunch. Staffs are very friendly and cooperative. Foods are top quality and worth for cost.

We visited as a party of 11, and overall, we had a fantastic experience. The food was outstanding—every dish was delicious and satisfying, making it clear that the kitchen takes great pride in their offerings. Everyone in our group thoroughly enjoyed their meal. That said, the service was slower than expected, likely due to the restaurant being short-staffed that day. Despite this, the staff remained respectful and did their best to accommodate us, which we appreciated. While the service delay was a bit of a setback, the quality of the food made up for it. We’ll definitely be returning in the future, as the food was well worth the wait.

Absolutely stunning food. Lots and lots of vegetarian options. Lovely service.

Tasty Food, Good ambience. Must try mysore chatpata dosa.

Hey The food is amazing.... And the services are amazing ....

There services are so good and food as well One girl serve us and she’s so sweet.

Had Scrumptious dinner at Sankalp!!! Everything we ate was delicious and worth spending. Especially Lasuni Paneer Tikka!!!! Service was at greatest speed. Had a lovely time!!!! Will definitely come again.

Nice selection of dishes for vegetarians too. Taste is ok. For example, the Indo Chinese dishes taste much better at Himalaya Tandoori. I get a feeling at times, they have stuffed the menu with plenty of dishes but only a handful of them actually tastes good.

Really An amazing ambience, loved the food, manager was very kind, and patient. Krinal is a wonderful manager, thank you for your service

When we visit this place, it was very Cold.

Krinal was very kind and helpful to choose right food as per lur choice. She asked the chef to prepare the food as we requested. Amazong service and would definitely keep visiting here again

Dal makhni was super delicious And the service by a guy name Dharmin’s so good..he was very friendly U can see the plates😂😂

We were served by Dharmin and his service was just amazing!! Thanks

I visited at Sankalp Restaurant the food is very good specially chicken biryani and Dosa and indochinese you must visit

Krinal was very good with service and was very professional throughtout the time service on point,food quality and most important very humble

Food got spill inside the bag. No water for puri it was in the bag or went inside other box of Sambhar n idli

We had a dinner with family and ordered Tandoori mix grill sizzler, Lamb chops. It was very delicious. Lots of vegetarian and non vegetarian option. Good service and friendly staff. Definitely recommend this place to have quality time with family.

We ordered Kadai chicken , Palak Paneer , Dal Fry , Saffron Rice and Plain naan. This restaurant doesn’t even meet 1 star. Very disappointed. Small portions , naan was dry , 2-3 pieces of chicken for the main course . The pot in which the dal fry was served was not steady. All meals were served cold . Lots of dry chillies , cardamom and whole cinnamon in the curries . Ended paying over £60 for this meal. No customer service with 8% service charge . Avoid please . Total rip off . I warn you don’t go there . Fun fact : waiter looking for a five star review after paying the bill .

What an amazing service and delicious food too. We have visited this restaurant every week and the taste of the food still the same . Just an amzing !!!

Sankalp, Milton Keynes: Where Disappointment is Served Cold Picture this: a quiet Sunday evening, four occupied tables, and the promise of authentic South Indian cuisine. What we got instead was a masterclass in mediocrity. The opening act, Crispy Corn, was anything but crispy - soggy and sad, it set the tone for the evening. The Mysore Masala Dosa arrived as a soft imposter, with the masala hiding inside instead of coating the dosa whereas the order was for crispy and masala on the side. A take away order of Onion Uttapam was packed with a Tomato Onion Uttapam. And the grand finale? The Golden Crisp Dosa - burnt to a crisp, cold as stone, and 30 minutes late. Even the sambhar, the soul of a dosa, was served cold. A South Indian restaurant failing to serve warm sambhar and dosa is like a pizzeria forgetting the cheese. Service was equally uninspired. Despite just four tables, the staff seemed determined to test our patience, with orders vanishing and enthusiasm nowhere in sight. Sankalp isn’t just a restaurant - it’s a test of endurance. If you crave cold dosas, burnt edges, and soggy appetizers, look no further. For everyone else, steer clear.

The vegetarian thali at this Indian restaurant was a delightful culinary experience. Every dish on the platter was bursting with flavor and expertly prepared. The service was attentive and friendly, creating a welcoming atmosphere. From the fragrant rice to the perfectly spiced vegetables, every element of the meal was exceptional. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone seeking authentic and delicious Indian cuisine in Milton Keynes.

Too pricey for the quality. Taste is good. Dahi poori- just tasted like eating plain poori. No tangy taste of imli and mint. dahi was just sprayed a bit on poori Kulfi- tasted like eating sand grains Chilli chicken was good. Sambar was good. Would appreciate if paneer tikka could look red. The staff attitude was awesome. The hygiene level was great.

We booked for 2 people and it was amazing the food was amazing the service was top notch if I would to recommend I would highly recommend Sankalp

The food was absolutely delicious, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. However, the customer service fell short of expectations. After we finished and requested the bill, the manager processed the payment without exchanging a single word. When I said thank you, there was no acknowledgment, and he turned away without a proper farewell. A warm and courteous interaction would have made the experience truly exceptional.

Fantastic food. Will visit again.

Amazing food variety of menu to chose from as a vegetarian I did enjoy of my choices and the best personally for was the one I ate ..

Lovely food and great quality. We had paneer chilli milli, dosa, idli, dal and naan. we all enjoyed all items. Sizzling brownie at the end was the cherry on top.

Great Dosa!! Would recommend Cheese and Garlic Masala Dosa!

Nice experience. Service was excellent. Staff were very friendly. Highly recommend.

My experience with Sankalp was not great! We ordered Dosa along with other dishes, it never came despite several reminders to manager and waiter, it came when we finished the Dinner and ask for bill, also Chef forget to add salt in Malai kofte and when Chef realized this he compensate it adding more Salt in Veg Hakka noodles :(

I visited Sankalp Restaurant in Milton Keynes yesterday, and it was a huge letdown. Paying £14 for a Kara Mura dosa was simply not justified. The dosa, chutney, and sambhar were all far below expectations – they seemed stale and lacked freshness. The chutney had an odd taste, and overall, the food quality didn’t come close to what I’ve experienced at other branches of Sankalp in India. The 10% test was definitely not met here. While the “Crispy Dosa Restaurant” was slightly better – at least it appeared freshly made – it didn’t make up for the overall poor quality. For such a high price, the food should have been much better. Sankalp India needs to take some serious action to ensure that their franchise locations uphold the brand’s reputation. After this visit, I have little desire to return.

Sankalp offers great food with authentic flavors. The Chettinad chicken curry was delicious—highly recommend asking for the spicy option if you enjoy bold flavors. The filter coffee was also excellent. Parking is available, making it a convenient spot for a tasty and satisfying meal.

Food was good. Dosa was slightly oily. Service was ok but atmosphere was like a cafe vibe slightly retro theme. Change of furniture would really change the look and remove the cheap led bubble feature. Overall food was tasty I guess that’s all that matters.

Had food at this restaurant, lovely food and friendly staff. Highly recommend this place.

We tried chicken Biryani, Chicken chetinadu, pepper Lamb. When we ordered clearly mentioned spicy, but what we got is Blend food without salt or any taste, Not satisfied with taste. Not worth to try once too. Try different options if u want to save money

Great food and Sambhar tastes same as their original branch in Ahmedabad (Gujarat, India).

Food is the worse. The worst butter chcker ever had.

Disappointing Meal Experience I recently dined at Sankalp and was left quite disappointed. We ordered a Manchow soup and a Hot and Sour soup. To our surprise, both soups tasted exactly the same, with the only difference being the presence of noodles in one. The other soup, which was supposed to be Hot and Sour, lacked any distinct flavor profile and was essentially just a noodle-less version of the Manchow soup. This inconsistency in taste and presentation was quite frustrating. We expected two distinct flavors, but instead, we received a subpar dining experience. It's disheartening to see such a lack of attention to detail and quality control.

The food was really good as I had come here for the first time. I tried the Samosa chaat which tasted good and some mains. The service was quick and overall a good experience.

Fantastic food, and service was great! Dharmia and colleagues were our waiters and made us feel at home - we will definitely come back again!

Great food, lovely service from dharmin.

Lovely place, very tasty food. Very friendly staff, Dharmin was very kind

Service from Krinal was awesome.

I had a great experience at Sankalp Restaurant. The food was delicious and well-prepared, and the service was equally impressive. A special mention to Dharmin for providing good service.

Manchurin balls were under cooked. The butter paneer gravy was not sufficiently thick. I had better experience with Sankalp in the past but can’t say the same now.

First time at this restaurant, which was recommended by our friends. The food is amazing, very authentic and full of flavour. Service was top-notch and everything served with a smile. We will be back soon!

Cannot recommend the food and the service enough - great paneer and chicken dishes. Krinnal was an excellent server - we will be back for sure! Thank you!

Well food was below average. Asked for tea, but I got a prepacked tea and not freshly made tea. Also did not got water and even service was like 1 hr late

Very quite and comfortable place for a dine in . Veg options are reliable . We loved the nice and mild Tawa pulav. Thee staff are very polite.

Very wide range in VEGIARIAN & Non VEGIARIAN. Helpfull all & yes service assistant is good. Over all good bar/food/ parking 5 start .

Been there yesterday First thing they are showing open at 12:00 entered their 12:15pm but we get served 13:20 litterally after one hour as staff saying that kitchen was not ready then why are you showing restaurant is open.?????? Secondly thier handling of food was too poor they guy with black jacket and specs was serving food he was literally touching tables his mobile phone and laptop with same hand and while serving touching our drinks straws top part with same bare hands. Thirdly the waiter who was serving food his mouth was full of paan which i can see on his lips and teeths. Litterly his mouth was dipped with paan while serving or may be prepping the food. I am not after and bad marketing of any kind of bad mouthing but literally i wasted my time and money in this kind of restaurant. Never gonna go their again and will inform to council as well to check their cleaniness and hygiene in kitchen as well.

I ordered the triple barrel dosa, manchurian dumplings and medu vada. Very generous portions as can see, i was very much eating with my eyes and was worth it.

I really enjoyed this food, will definitely order again.

The place is ok. The food is good. Service is very slow. Just make sure to check your bill. We were charged for dishes we did not order, and we were not served dishes we ordered for.

Lovely and clean restaurant, ordered a too good to go, was amazing and even ended up staying for drinks and other food! Thanks so much will definitely be back again!

Awesome Food & Service. Finally something typical indian taste in town. Good job guys!

Significant delay with delivery despite ordering over an hour in advance. Restaurant claimed delivery driver for Just Eat hadn't turned up yet even though even though the app said delivery driver was waiting at the restaurant. When I spoke to delivery driver, he said he hadn't been waiting long which confirmed the Just Eat app was not telling the truth. It doesn't help that Just Eat are not contactable.

It is a decent restaurant today was my second visit and everything was OK just like in any other restaurant. I remember visiting this place long back when it just started…and the chicken biryani that was served to me was JUST AMAZING… I shared my feedback with the restaurant then, as I was really impressed, they were serving real indian taste… i think now just like other restaurants they have moved it to UK indian type taste, disappointing for me but i think that is what sells here so cant blame them

My experience was not at all good !! Service provided by Mr. Paresh was very bad !! Quality of food was ok not great !!

Took more than 20 mins to just prepare a takeaway order for 1 vada Pav and 1 portion of onion bhajia. Although told them not to put spicy chutney as it is for a kid they did the swam mistake, I size of the vada is the smallest I have seen at the expensive price of £6.95 for a vada Pav. Will not visit or order from this restaurant and will neither recommend anybody

Excellent place and great food. Will definitely recommend!!!

I will recommend everyone to visit this place, yummy food and all staff are very supportive. All staff taking care of us same as family. Test of Manchurian Dry and Dhosa no one can beat in whole UK.

Sankalp Indian Restaurant- Milton Keynes. I visited on the 29/08/2024 in the evening at 6pm. Plenty of parking directly outside. Difficult to find the entrance if you don’t know the area. The restaurant is based on the 1st floor and the entrance door is round the corner by the Peri Peri shop. Sankalp has a disabled lift for wheelchair users and less able people. When you get upstairs it is spacious with lots of seating. Not the best decor but it was okay. Vimal served us who was very polite, friendly and helpful. I did not order too much as it was the first time I was visiting. I will rate the food out of 10: Papri Chaat - 10/10, one of the best chaats I have had in the UK. Very fresh, tasty and a good portion size. The sauces tasted very nice as well. Good presentation. Masala Dosa - 10/10, large portion, great filling of spiced potatoes and vegetables which I liked, nice and crispy batter. Very tasty. Much better than Crispy Dosa next door. Vegetable Pilau - 10/10, large portion and well presented (I had already eaten some then taken a picture of the dish, apologies). First time I’ve actually liked Pilau rice at a restaurant. It was very nice and glad I ordered this. Overall the food was fantastic and so was the service. The food is much nicer than Crispy Dosa, Dipna Anand’s Kitchen, Maaya Indian Kitchen and Namji. Excellent customer service. Even the young lady bringing out our food was very friendly and polite. Very reasonably priced, in fact cheaper than other Indian restaurants in the area. The decor does not do this place justice and I would highly recommend to try Sankalp. Will most definitely visit again. Definitely a hidden gem. 5 stars all the way. Thank you to Vimal and to all the staff for the great service and food.

Our favourite place in Milton Keynes! We organised our daughter’s 1st birthday party and we loved it!

Unforgettable Dining Experience!" Sankalp UK offers an exceptional taste of India right here in the UK! The menu is diverse, with every dish packed with flavor and made with love. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. Definitely our new go-to spot for Indian cuisine! 🍽️

Best indian dining place. The staff (especially Krinal ) has been very welcoming and polite to us. We have been a usual to here for quite some time now. And have never been disappointed. Along with an elaborate menu for chaat, starters, non vegetarian and vegetarian delicacies, they have a wide range of dosa’s and uttappa’s for south indian food lovers. Would definitely recommend this place

Fantastic menu options, great for vegetarians, lovely staff and amazing taste of food. So fresh!!!

Over all nice indian food .. This is place for Dosa lover with different falovous...

My wife and I went here to celebrate our Ruby wedding anniversary. We were warmly welcomed and our drinks arrived quickly. We enjoyed the vadas and sev puri to start off the meal followed by lamb madras, butter chicken, veg pilau rice and choke puri. The food was very fresh and full of flavour. Our server Vimal and the manager organised a surprise dessert for us at the end of the meal. There is a well stocked bar here offering a wide selection of cocktails, spirits, wines and beers. There are also a good selection of vegetarian, vegan, dairy free and gluten free items on the menu. They will go out of their way to accommodate any dietary needs. A very enjoyable evening and we will be back for a repeat visit. Thank you.

I visited this restaurant to celebrate my Ruby wedding anniversary. We ordered vadas, dahi puri, butter chicken, lamb madras, pilau rice and some puri chole. The food was fresh and full of flavour. Vimal who served us gave us a surprise dessert with the approval of the manager to mark the occasion. They have a well stocked bar offering a variety of cocktails, spirits and beers. Plenty of gluten and dairy free options on the menu. They even cater for vegan and vegetarian diets. A very enjoyable visit with a repeat visit on the cards. Thankyou and keep up the excellent work.

Todd is my go to place in India. So very pleased that I had the chance to visit the UK branch. The food to my back to India. This restaurant gives you authentic flavours of India. Our friends one of who enjoys his food was full of compliments. The people who work at the restaurant provide a no pressure service and don’t over visit you while you eat. The minor adjustments we asked for our food were catered for. We will be back.

I had a highly disappointing experience at this restaurant. We visited on a Saturday night when it was quite busy, but there were only three waiters attending to all the tables. Despite ordering just two dosas, it took over 40 minutes for our food to arrive, and when it finally did, it was cold. We had to request water three times before it was brought to our table. Additionally, we waited another 15 minutes just to receive the bill. This was, without a doubt, the worst dining experience I’ve had. I would not recommend this place to anyone. If I could give zero stars, I certainly would.

The food was nice but took nearly 2 hours to come. They don’t bring food out together in a table so we had half the table finish their mains and the other half not even get their mains! Overall a poor experience with unresponsive wait staff. Such a shame as the food was very good.

Dining at Sankalp, Milton Keynes is always a delight! The ambiance is absolutely stunning, with a perfect mix of traditional and modern decor that sets the tone for a relaxing meal. The Dosa, Rice and Manchurian is consistently amazing. The service is superb, with a team that’s always attentive and eager to ensure you have a great time. I highly recommend Sankalp, Milton Keynes for authentic Indian food.

Lovely experience! The food was good quality, really enjoyed dosa and the vegetarian indo Chinese platter, the South Indian food was better than anywhere else I’ve tried in MK and beyond! Definitely recommend 👍🏼

Excellent food and amazing place. We really enjoyed.

Excellent food. Great service. Ready to go again!

Really enjoy dinning at Sankalp.. great authentic food that caters for all pallets. The staff are friendly and very welcoming. We have had some great gatherings here with family and friends and really do recommend it.

Good services, nice staff, amazing food. Must try this place

Great Food and Service!! Would strongly recommend.

I have been to this place 5-6 times . I love the food and staff. Must visit place 🌸
