The India Gate in Hackney

Food is excellent, and good atmosphere but be careful when you pay, our bill was £24.95 per person and they charged me £62 for two. They basically overcharged me by £12. I had opted to not pay tip because they kicked us out as they only allow you to stay there 90 minutes because of train delays we were 20 min late in the beginning .

They advertise a ‘Buffet Night’ in a poster on the door. Didn’t even get through the door when a very rude man (the owner?) told me “it’s finished…a long time ago”. I suggested they should take the poster down then, which he started to do. Went round the corner and had a nice curry at the Lavan’s Spice. As I walked back passed on my way home the poster was back in the window! They are openly LYING to customers advertising a buffet night they don’t actually do! AVOID!!!

Really happy to have tried out this restaurant tonight. It’s fairly discreet from the outside, but nice and cost inside. The staff were all very friendly and attentive. The food was to a good level and very well priced. Will definitely return! Now I must walk home with a full belly 😆

Ordered via ubereats. Got food home, Lamb Rogan... NO Lamb. Chicken Madras.. THREE pieces of chicken and 2 lumps of potato. The dips were nothing more than a thimble full. 4 popadums two of which were that stale you could bend them into 4 WITHOUT breaking them. Rang ubereats and was given a paltry £3.42 refund. Rang the restaurant and was called a liar being told there was 8 pieces of chicken (see for yourself) Manager never called back despite being told he would. The only decent thing was the rice and the raita. Don't waste your money 8 quid for a curry sauce and 7 quid for half portion of Madras.

I had a blood merry for 7£ but it worthless. It should cost £2.because of the amount of tomato juice and ice, I really regret to order something that should be great and nice to drink but it was too expensive for the 100 ml of tomato tomato juice
