The restaurant is a recommendation if you want to eat Indian food in London for a good price. The restaurant is a bit hidden on a busy street and quite narrow. We were there at 1:00 p.m. on a Monday and got a table without any problems. The waiter was nice and tried hard, but due to the language barrier there wasn't much warmth. The food was completely convincing! Really tasty and yet a little different to the Indian food we knew from Germany. You should always make sure to order a side dish with your main course, because the main courses come without rice or salad. But you also have a good selection here.

Delicious curry and incredible customer service. We negotiated with their worker outside and got a deal of starter, main, rice/bread and beer for 15 pounds per person. I've had better starters elsewhere. But the main and rice/bread were worth it. Along with the extra large glass of beer. Waiting staff were super friendly and always available to help.

Brick Lane has changed a lot in recent years and there are only half as many South Asian restaurants as there were when I worked in the area in 2006. Nevertheless, the Monsoon does a fine job of keeping-up the street's tradition of providing excellent and affordable Bangladeshi cuisine. I was served a tasty starter, filling vegetarian main course, beer, brandy with friendly service for £18 all-in. I certainly felt very welcome and would happily go back the next time I find myself in the area.

Monsoon, where do I start. What a place. The staff were exceptionally accommodating and with a large group of us, midweek, we were generously offered a private room upstairs. This suited us perfectly and allowed us to indulge in our own booze we had brought. Staff were attentive to taking our orders and the food came without great delay. The prawn puri starter I had was easily the best of any curry house I have visited (a vast number) which is saying something as my go to starter is prawn puri. I had asked for an extra hot jalfrezi which on its arrival certainly did not disappoint. The flavours were sensual and tender pieces of marinated chicken in a rich sauce. I shall be returning.

We have tried all of the curry places on Brick Lane as it is our neighbourhood. Most of them feel quite touristy, offer standard fare, you have little space, and service is rushed. Our conclusion: if we fancy a curry, there is only ONE place we will go: Monsoon. It has the tastiest, freshly prepared food, which is different most most others, the friendliest service, and it is good value. A real treat. We can't wait to be back.

During our recent visit to The Monsoon on Brick Lane, we were warmly greeted by the street host, whose convincing charm led us into this family-run gem. The atmosphere was inviting, and the bossman’s hospitality was immediately evident, setting the tone for a memorable dining experience. The menu offered a plethora of authentic Indian dishes, each more enticing than the last. We commenced with the Monsoon Special Biryani, a dish that was both aromatic and flavorful, showcasing the chef’s mastery. The poppadums were crisp and accompanied by a selection of chutneys that tantalized our taste buds.  For our mains, the Chicken Tikka Masala stood out with its rich, creamy sauce enveloping tender pieces of chicken. The King Prawn Puri was another highlight, offering succulent prawns in a perfectly spiced gravy atop soft, fluffy bread.  Perchance, it was the unexpected 20% discount and complimentary drinks that elevated our experience, reflecting the establishment’s generosity and commitment to customer satisfaction. The bossman’s attentiveness and genuine interest in our dining pleasure did not go unnoticed, making us feel like esteemed guests rather than mere patrons. The Monsoon’s reputation as a family business shines through in every aspect, from the heartfelt service to the meticulously prepared dishes. Perchance, it’s this dedication that has garnered them an 8.8/10 rating on TheFork, with particular praise for their quality of food and exceptional service.  In conclusion, our dining experience at The Monsoon was nothing short of exquisite. Perchance, it’s the combination of delectable cuisine, warm hospitality, and the charm of a family-run establishment that makes it a must-visit destination on Brick Lane.

It’s taken me a while to write this review but I went there in November 2024 after having a glorious Float Tank relaxation session. I chose this place having not read any reviews, but I liked that there was no aggressive hawking/promotion/dragging you off the street like some other restaurants in the area. It looked clean, calm and peaceful so my friend and I took the plunge. So glad we did! The service was on point and the food was great. Had an issue with my bhindi in that it cooked dry - but that can happen depending on the season. That was immediately taken off the bill but left with me if I wanted to continue eating it. Both the curries bought were really tasty, hot in temperature and perfect levels of spice. The rice dish was lovely and my bread was light and airy. The pickles served with the popadoms were of high standard too. Service was really attentive without being intrusive and it’s definitely someone I would recommend to others and return to myself.

Oh. My. God. The Monsoon on Brick Lane is not just a restaurant—it’s a religious experience. The second I waltzed in, I was hit with an atmosphere so warm, so inviting, I half-expected a spotlight to shine down and a gospel choir to start harmonizing. And THEN—plot twist—I found myself dining alongside an actual lord. That’s right, babes, I was breaking poppadums with nobility. Who else is doing it like me? Now, let’s get into the food, because I’m still emotionally recovering. The Monsoon Special Biryani? A dish so flavorful, so sensual, I briefly considered proposing to it. The poppadums? Ethereal. Crisp. Delicate, yet commanding. Quite frankly, the Beyoncé of poppadums. And let’s talk service—when I mentioned one dish had a little too much drama for my spice tolerance, they immediately offered to remake it. I declined (because I’m nothing if not graceful), but the fact that they even offered? Hospitality at its absolute finest. Even got a thank you aperitif - so yummy! Long story short: Monsoon is a cultural reset. A masterpiece. A life-changing event. If you haven’t been, I fear for your well-being.

Using Groupon deal, can only choose two starter up to £6.95, which only like 5 choices out of 20, up to £12.95 main, 8 choices out of 40, ONE portion rice or nann to share when the deal is for 2. I’d say it’s definitely one of the top mean restaurants I’ve ever been, the only thing they acted generous is you can choose a house wine, which is probably tasted the best compare to the food lol! the starter was OK, as for the main, lamb was undercooked and chicken was overcooked, and the tiny portion keema rice was ok not much flavour. You get what you paid for, but the point of Groupon deal is if the food is good then it’ll attract people to come back, unfortunately how this restaurant works is the opposite, will never go back again.

Vi feiret vår bryllupsdag her, og vi ble ikke skuffet! Vi tok en dele-meny, og fikk servert flere småretter med den nydeligste indiske mat. Servitørene var oppmerksomme og hyggelige, de sørget for at vi alltid hadde vin i glasset og passet på at vi hadde alt vi trengte. Vi hadde en meget hyggelig kveld, og anbefaler gjerne både maten og stedet videre.

Este "café de mesa formica" es un lugar sin complicaciones. Puede elegir su comida de una selección de curry que se muestra debajo de un mostrador de vidrio. Los precios son razonables. No se sirve alcohol, aquí es estrictamente halal.Está al lado de la Galería de Arte White Chapel, a pocos metros de la entrada de la estación de metro Aldgate East en White Chapel High Street.El lugar está extremadamente ocupado a la hora del almuerzo con gente local que claramente ama el lugar.He visitado muchas veces y me encanta el cordero biryani que tiene un sabor muy auténtico.
