Trishna in City of London, Westminster

This was my third time here and opinion stays the same: great place worth checking out - recommend the tasting menu for first timers. The lobster blew me away. Wine pairing is very well done. Staff are extremely kind and the place is very cozy and relaxing.

Blown away by the place. Incredible food and the most tender chicken I’ve ever had

Trishna offers an exceptional take on Indian coastal cuisine, earning its Michelin star with bold flavors, innovative techniques, and impeccable execution. The ambiance strikes the perfect balance between relaxed and refined, making it an ideal spot for both special occasions and casual fine dining. The Brown Crab, inspired by the original Trishna in Mumbai, is an absolute standout—rich, buttery, and delicately spiced with red chili. The Tandoori Lamb Chop is another signature dish, perfectly charred on the outside and juicy within, bursting with aromatic flavors. For dessert, the Alphonso Mango & Pistachio Kheer offers a refreshing and indulgent finish. With a thoughtfully curated wine list and warm, attentive service, Trishna delivers a truly memorable dining experience. A must-visit for lovers of Indian cuisine looking for something extraordinary!

This might be our new favorite spot for Indian food in London. It's a small, beautiful space with some of the city's best wait staff providing excellent service. We sampled a bit of everything on the menu and will definitely be back.

Great food though a tad spicy for my liking. Wonderful atmosphere and amazing staff. Flavor combinations are extremely unique and worth a try.

Where is your favourite place for Indian food? This restaurant is definitely one of my top five places to go in London😆 I have been to this place four times and always love it!! ❤️ It offers a fantastic £55 4 course set lunch/ early dinner menu!!! Great value for a one Michelin starred restaurant!!🤑 I also love the wide variety of small dishes and tandoori dishes that are on offer! SAVE this and FOLLOW me for Michelin starred experience around London 😊 I love everything that I had! But my favourites are the duck sheekh kebab or with sweet pineapple chutney, crispy coconut and corn tikki, tandoori trout, garlic jumbo prawns, Dorset brown crab curry and jackfruit ice cream😍 TOP TIP- if you order the bread basket, you can ask for three pieces of garlic naan (instead of one garlic, one plain and one brown) Trust me the garlic one is the best one! 😆 For my last visit, I had the following from the Set menu (£55 for 4 courses): ⭐️ 🍪 Variety of papads, served with mint, prawn and tomato chutneys ⭐️ 🥔 Aloo Chaat - potato and chickpea with a tamarind and sweet yoghurt dressing ⭐️ 🦆 Duck seekh kebab with sweet pineapple chutney. 🐓 Cashew and pepper chicken curry, topped with roasted coconut, served with roasted potato, dal, rice, and bread ⭐️ 🌹 Lychee & rose Kulfi ice cream, served with fluffy patisa crumble and falooda From a la carte, I tried ⭐️ 🌽 crispy coconut and corn tikki (£13) with mint and mango murabba and corn bhail ⭐️ 🦆 Duck keema naan (13) 🧀 Paneer tikka (15) ⭐️ 🐟 Tandoori river trout with smoked papaya and samphire chaat (£22) ⭐️ 🐠 Hariyali bream - fish marinated with green chilli and coriander, served with smoked tomato (£20) ⭐️ 🦐 Peanut garlic prawns ( £28) Jumbo prawns with shrimp chutney and idiyappam 🍫 chocolate mousse cake with jackfruit ice cream and pistachio ⭐️🍦 Ice cream - Jackfruit & cinnamon, rose & lychee, chocolate & honeycomb ⁣ 📍 Trishna, 15-17 Blandford St, London W1U 3DG 🚇Nearest Station: Bond Street . . . .

Slightly disappointed. From the moment we arrived, we were crammed into a small porch with other guests waiting to be seated. It all seemed very disorganised. Once seated, it took forever to take our drinks order. This is possibly why they rushed us to vacate our table - you only get 2 hours, and we felt slightly pressured during and after the meal. As for the food, it was good for the most part, but not remarkable and certainly not worthy of a Michelin star. The lamb chop was the star of the show, but that doesn't make up for the rest of the menu which I would say was above average, rather than exceptional. The price paid and the Michelin star do not match up to the actual experience of dining here sadly.

Caminando por Blandford Street justo al lado de Marylebone High y buscando un restaurante, nos topamos con Trishna. Se veía lindo desde el exterior y presentaba un interesante menú indio. El restaurante estaba lleno, pero hicimos una reserva para la noche siguiente. Los comedores son pequeños y las mesas están razonablemente cerca, como la mayoría de los restaurantes de la zona. El personal era impresionante. Los camareros eran muy atentos, pero no demasiado. El menú presentaba una gran variedad de platos, muchos nuevos para nosotros. Elegimos el menú degustación de prix fixe. La comida era genial. Todos los platos estaban muy bien presentados e incluso mejor para comer. Su menú no es el menú indio “habitual” preferido fuera de la India. Nos alegramos de haber encontrado esta pequeña joya y volveremos. La relación precio/calidad era adecuada dado que pedimos el menú del chef y su Estrella Michelin.

Sublime food, complimented by warm and welcoming service. Great food great service, great evening.

By happy coincidence, I opened the door to this restaurant and it is by far the best Indian I have had the opportunity to taste. The crispy starter was CRAZY! Back in Paris, still under the spell of the flavors of this lunch, I learned that it was starred! ⭐️

Great food, spoilt by an abysmally rushed ending to the meal. I booked Trishna for an early dinner to celebrate my birthday with some family, and had been looking forward to it for a while as a special occasion due to its reputation and Michelin star. We were offered the 3/4 course early evening menu, which for £50/55 is excellent value for a Michelin-starred restaurant, as I’ve been to several Michelin-starred restaurants in London. I have no complaints about the food or drinks: - I had the lychee martini at the start which was delicious, the strong vodka taste complemented by the sweet lychee - The papads and chutneys were great, with special mention to the mint and coriander chutney - From the set menu, I chose the guinea fowl pepper fry, paneer tikka, and mushroom and morel biryani. The guinea fowl came with wonderfully flaky paratha, and all of the dishes were superb even if nothing was particularly mind-blowing - The portions were surprisingly plentiful and came with dal panchmel, breads (garlic naan, roti and aloo paratha) and rice. I love dal myself so this is biased but the dal was my favourite dish - I ordered another portion! - Since we were warned the portions might be quite small, I also opted for the Kashmiri morel dish off the a la carte menu which was served with my paneer. This was very flavourful and came with a range of chutneys. After reaching the end of the third course, I was greatly impressed by Trishna and it felt like money well spent, and was already planning to come back. This was immediately then soured once a waiter came up to us and asked something to the effect of “Are you finished? Because we have another table coming at 7:45 so we’ll need you to leave by then.” At this point it was 7:37 and one of our party was still waiting for dessert! This was the first anyone had told us that we would need to rush out. Our booking did give 7:45 as the end time for a meal, but this is typical for bookings made on SevenRooms and we hadn’t been looking carefully at the time - the waiters were happy to take orders for more food in the meantime and didn’t warn us upon ordering dessert that this would be an issue. We asked if the dessert could be cancelled in that case but we were told that it was already ready, and it was brought over with five minutes to spare. To their credit, they gave me a scoop of fruit sorbet for my birthday which was a really nice touch - but I didn’t even find out what flavour it was in the panic of wolfing it down in five minutes, as the bill was being served. The plates from our third course hadn’t even been taken away at this point. This wasn’t a massive problem in the grand scheme of things but is unacceptable for a Michelin-starred restaurant of that calibre and really soured our meal. After forking out over £80 a head in the end and eagerly looking forward to the experience, we didn’t even get to properly finish it. We weren’t particularly slow at eating, and this leads me to wonder - had we ordered the £110/head 5 course tasting menu instead, with wine pairings, how can it be possible to have the full meal within the 2 hour time period? In any case, despite the hefty price tag, it didn’t really feel like a special occasion. Would I return to Trishna? Possibly, if I was dining solo and having the early evening set menu. Would I ever consider getting the tasting menu? Absolutely not - I’m sure it tastes amazing, but based on my experience, there’s no guarantee that we’d even get to the end of the meal.

Cosy, relaxed restaurant with lovely staff. All of the food was delicious, the depth of flavours and the level of spicing was perfect. As the food is rich (not buttery rich), the portion sizes were just right. Despite the intent, we didn't make it to dessert! Another visit will have to correct that! It's definitely a Trish-yay, not a Trish-nay

A very welcoming and friendly team, we had the 4 course meal and everything was so good, music and general feel of the place makes you feel like this is how your weekend should be like, great food , music and company.

Fantastic on all fronts. A proper Indian culinary experience, with a standout dish in every dish. And for the relatively average price you’re paying, you not only get wonderful tasting quality dishes, but actually really good portions. I would highly recommend this to anyone in London who would like to have an unforgettable Indian dinner!

Every thing was so good I really love the ambience.The sommelier was so friendly had a great time.Definitely coming back

Just pretty regular Indian food. Good quality ingredients and plated in a semi ‘fine dining’ fashion. But not really out of the ordinary.

Exceptional Indian Cuisine at Trishna Trishna offers a fantastic Indian dining experience with a warm atmosphere and impeccable service. The food is expertly crafted, with bold yet balanced flavors. Their lamb chops are perfectly cooked—tender, smoky, and packed with spice. The mushroom biryani is rich, fragrant, and deeply satisfying. Thoughtful wine pairings elevate the experience even further. A must-visit for top-tier Indian cuisine in London!

Buena ubicación justo al lado de Marylebone High Street. Al entrar, el área de recepción es estrecha. Fuimos recibidos y mostrados a nuestra mesa por una agradable recepcionista. Dentro de la habitación principal, la decoración era oscura y bastante dudosa. Teníamos pre - reservado el menú de cuatro platos para el almuerzo. Agradablemente, nos trajeron una bandeja de papas y chutneys (que no contaba como uno de los platos). Ordené que empezaran los calamares y camarones. La masa estaba crujiente, sin embargo, el calamar había terminado - cocinado y como bandas de goma. El plato era aburrido de comer y me equivoqué al elegir ingredientes que me gustaban sin pensar en el riesgo de que cómo se cocinaban no fuera mi gusto. Para el segundo plato, pedí la búsqueda de chutney de pato. Era una salchicha rellena de yogur, salsa de ish. La textura del pato era gruesa y mezclada con chile verde. No terminé este plato. Mi principal fue cordero gongura con dal, patatas asadas Chettinad con arroz, naan y rotis. El cordero no estaba tierno, la salsa de curry estaba muy bien especiada, aunque más bien sal - adelante. El dal había terminado, sazonado para mi paladar. De postre, comí sorbetes de frambuesa y mango que refrescaron después del ataque de especias. El servicio fue impecable. Los servidores fueron atentos y educados y cada uno de los cursos se introdujo con una floritura. Las bebidas eran caras – siete libras por la mitad del IPA es extremo, especialmente porque está sujeto a su cargo por servicio del 15%. Así que fue algo así como una experiencia 'meh' para mí - los dos primeros platos no fueron de mi gusto y el principal no me dejó boquiabierto. Con las bebidas caras y el cargo por servicio fue una salida costosa. Yo esperaría que hay mejores restaurantes indios en Londres en este rango de precios.

We ate here on Thursday evening. The food and service were very good but as soon as you walk in you’re hit with a wall of cooking smells. I appreciate it’s an Indian restaurant but other upmarket Indian restaurants I’ve been to don’t smell as strong as it did here. Perhaps your aircon needs servicing? Thanks.

We had the vegetarian and the classic New Year's Eve menu. Both menus were very good and authentically prepared. The selection of individual dishes within the menu was also nice and there was something for every taste. The service was good but a bit too rushed. I would have liked to have taken things a little easier :). We had a lovely evening at Trishna.

The restaurant offers an impressive selection of traditional coastal Indian dishes, expertly prepared to elevate the classic flavors of curries and biryanis. We enjoyed the balance between refined techniques and the simplicity of authentic recipes. While the service occasionally faltered, lacking the seamless efficiency one might expect from a Michelin-starred establishment, the food more than made up for any minor setbacks. Although there was no amuse-bouche — perhaps due to our à la carte choices — we appreciated the thoughtful compliments from the kitchen. Overall, the culinary experience was both satisfying and comforting, even if it didn’t entirely deliver the wow factor we anticipated from a Michelin-starred venue.

Came here for my anniversary dinner, our highlight was definitely the lamb chop and chicken briyani , and it was superb, amazing wine recommendations from the sommelier, it was definitely a night to remember. Will come again

Wonderful experience, service was good , food was even better , everything was tasty brought my mother with me and we left very happy.

Went there a couple of months back. Food was amazing and as per expectations. But I did see a mouse in their washroom which was shocking, especially since it was a Michelin star. Their service overall was good and they seems shocked too when I told them about the mouse. Not sure what they did after that. Until that incident, it was a recommended experience.

Food here is exceptional. Some of the best Indian fine dining you’ll find in London. Staff were very friendly and helpful. They will look after you, with a smile. The only let down is that the restaurant is very narrow and lacks atmosphere. We went here for our anniversary and spent £300. We were unfortunately seated next to an extremely loud table with a man who was practically shouting incessantly (though they left just after our first starter), and given the small size of the restaurant this did dampen our experience somewhat. This is outside of the staff’s control so I absolutely can’t fault the restaurant for this but if you’re looking for a more romantic ambience for a special occasion, try Chutney Mary or even Bombay Bustle. However if you’re just looking for a fantastic meal with good service, don’t hesitate to book. The food is sublime. We look forward to visiting again!

Tasting menu started off really well with the papads, incredibly tasty chutneys and the flavourful smoked salmon tayir sadam. The mallard chutney seekh was the highlight, each bite an incredible sensation in my mouth. Given the price of the tasting menu, expected more of the dishes to hit the heights of the spice infused dabbling duck. I love ducks and so had mixed emotions as I chipped away at the kebab, from my taste buds experiencing extreme euphoria to a devastating guilt back to happy taste buds and then utter melancholy once it was all gone.

Must go! What a great place! The food is to die for, extremely high quality ingredients and cooking! Wine and cocktail selection is very good. The service is always impeccable. Can t wait to go back and enjoy again

Visited this place following a few recommendations. I had the 6 course tasting menu, which was a good meal but nothing I would deem as Michelin star quality. The atmosphere is very relaxing but what we didn't appreciate was to be told we only had 15 minutes left before the table was needed for the next set of customers. We have never encountered this at a starred restaurant before and felt the service was rushed.

A favourite dinner spot. The food consistently delicious, the cocktails are divine though 1 is not enough and the staff and attentive and charming. Thank you to Richard who always makes us welcome and put us right about ice in cocktails!

I would have rated it 4 stars if most of the courses weren't so underseasoned. The assorted papads were alright, no comments there. The Turkey pepper fry with parotta (the only flawless course) was just outstanding, there were distinctive sweet and citric tones complimenting the spicy flavours well. The chicken chops were cooked to perfection but the downsides were that it didn't have enough salt and the unnecessary lentil dish on the side, which was just bland and felt excessive. Now for the main...which was a lot of food! Yet the gongura lamb left much to be desired. Both the main dish and the potatoes needed more SALT. Like I can't highlight it enough. The dessert, Chennar Payesh, was good if not great, and AGAIN it needed more SUGAR. I'm not just ranting out of order here, but having been to so many restaurants I know my tastebuds well. I wasn't disappointed with the experience but in all honesty, I don't think it's michelin star worthy.

Amazing place Very good service Good prices Best choose

Great Tasting menu. Loved the Lobster, Crab and Fish on their Festive Tasting Menu. Excellent service . Highly recommend. They also have a Vegan festive menu and this was helpful as one of the diners was Vegan.

Probably my favourite Indian restaurant anywhere in the world. Ridiculously good value for its well-deserved Michelin star. The focus is on South Indian food, so I would suggest that you lean into that versus some of the more 'default' dishes. Particular standouts are the salmon, the prawn curry and the absurdly good carrot and bean thoran (a dish that has no business being as good as it is). Lovely relaxed setting too.

Had a wonderful evening in Trishna. Lamb Chop and Dorset Brown Crab to die for. Service was great, staff very knowledgable. Love the Xmas Decor. Well done!

Food and service was amazing. Everyone was so kind and helpful. Incredible food. (Also a perfect mango lassi.)

This is a wonderful restaurant with tasty Indian dishes. I had dinner here with my sister and ordered appetiser Aloo Tokri Chat and mains were Cashew Pepper Chicken, Heirloom Carrot and Dorset Brown Crab, which is the standout. It is delicious and tender with the perfect garlicky and peppery taste. Overall, Trishna is exceptional in delivering flavourful dishes, and their service as well. It is well worth a visit for anyone looking for a refined Indian cuisine restaurant in London.

Got the most popular dishes (soft shell crab, dill tandoori salmon, tandoori lamb chops) as well as the brown crab curry. Unfortunately, the brown crab curry was overwhelmingly salty and peppery. Tried to send it back but was ignored by multiple servers who passed by. When I finally tracked down a server to pay for the check, I mentioned to them that the dish was way too salty and peppery and to let the chef know. All they did was ask if I wanted to pack it up to go rather than to rectify the situation (offer another menu item, take it off my check, etc). I gave them another chance by telling 2 other different servers about it, but nothing still. Was charged for it in the end. Although the rest of the dishes were fine, this experience with the brown crab curry tainted the rest of my evening’s enjoyment at the restaurant. The Michelin inspectors should reconsider their 1 star rating for future years, and the Trishna team should carefully re-evaluate their curries (a few other reviews have commented on the excessive saltiness and greasiness).

Trishna has its strengths, particularly in service and selecting dishes like salmon and turkey, but many other areas need improvement. The uncooked rice and the lacklustre Pepper Chicken were significant letdowns, which you would expect better at this price point. Failing to boil rice properly is something I have never experienced in any restaurant. I hope to see improvements in these areas in future visits if I ever feel like it deserves one. These missteps were surprising for a restaurant that prides itself on its culinary heritage and has a Michelin star. However, this should not deter anyone to atleast visit once. Pros: Service Dill & Pepper Salmon The Sharabi Turkey Chocolate Cake Cons: Uncooked Basmati Rice Cashew and Pepper Chicken Main Size of the Table

So almost cancelled dinner as my husband got food poisoning and I hate dining alone unless I’m at a counter. I spoke with the manager, Preeta, and she convinced me to come and they’d take care of me. So I arrive and probably have the best table in the house where it’s central part of the action but not exposed. Food was amazing. Duck naan was a Lovely starter and I couldn’t decide between the lamb chops and salmon so Preeta gave me a sample of both. Can’t decide which I liked better. Somm from Sardegna was super knowledgeable and helped me pick a great bottle of white he had off list (just gotten in). I also wanted a glass of red and he served me my pick and brought me a taste of his pick, a South African wine, which was delicious and lighter than most South African wines I’ve had which is nice. We’ve loved their sister restaurant Gymkhana for years but this was a fun more casual vibe with equally great food. They could not have made me feel more welcome. ❤️

Went there for birthday lunch. Food was quite bland and oily. I do not recommend.

My mistake, never book a tasting menu on a first service at 1800hrs when they “kick you out” at 2030hrs… Food was great, atmosphere was great, our waiter was great but the pressure to get through a 6 course meal in 2 hours….not suitable for a Michelin star…. One sitting per evening to allow a stressless meal should be mandatory……. Never again.

Impromptu dinner that was exceptional. Loved it and excited to go back!

Visited for lunch and had the four-course Taste of Trishna menu. We ordered the soft shell crab, followed by paneer tikka and green pepper chicken chops, then for the main we ordered gongura lamb and cashew & pepper chicken then finally for dessert the rasmalai and semifreddo. The mains were accompanied by roast potatoes, dhal, rice and a bread basket and as a starter snack a huge basket of papadams and chutneys was brought to the table. It was an incredible amount of food showcasing all the exotic flavours of coastal Indian cuisine. Hard to choose a favourite, they were all very good! The drinks menu is extensive, I liked the spiciness of the Kulukki Fizz cocktail and the beers, brewed especially for the restaurant, pair very well with the food. Service was warm and attentive without being overbearing, the meal was well paced and drink orders arrived quickly. The venue has a lovely ambience and is tastefully decorated. The lunch service attracted a diverse crowd with business lunches, friends catching up, regulars stopping by for their usual order and tourists like us wanting to sample one of London's best rated restaurants. It was a great experience and I would highly recommend it!

The service was fantastic! They were attentive but not intrusive. We had the veggie sampling menu, the first few dishes were excellent, but there were a few misses, that is the reason for the 4 stars for food. The drinks were absolutely divine

Unfortunately the restaurant did not live up to its hype. My wife and I were very excited considering the reputation however we found the food just mediocre. We experienced far superior food at the other Michelin star Indian restaurants in London. Great ambience and service though.

Amazing dining experience with attentive and fun service! Loved the coursed dinner menu list

The food was delicious. Special thanks to the young waiter at the restaurant who was very kind.

Service was great. Loved how the staff explained all the dishes, even the simple stuff like mango chutney that is brits are probably quite familiar with. Very friendly atmosphere. The food was as you’d expect. Brilliant. Everything nicely balanced and the dishes that were spicy struck that level to feel the heat, but not distract from the flavours leaving you with a warm glow after each dish. For me that makes me crave more. The cocktails were fantastic too! Can’t go wrong with anything on the menu.

Pretty impressive Indian food. I think I had the best daal so far in my life at this place, very tasty and not too salty. The paneer tikka just made me love paneer cheese even more, it was definitely cooked to perfection. The soft shell crab was very fresh. The cheese ball dessert was definitely a highlight to end the lunch experienced The only did I didn’t like was the gongura lamb, a bit too flavorful / salty.

I booked the Festive tasting menu. From the moment you arrive service is superb, the attention to detail, flawless moves, it’s almost a subtle dance. M highlights were the lamb chop tandoori and the venison 3 ways, but every dish was artfully plated and delicious. Oh and the rice pudding! Probably the best Indian fare I have ever had.

We recently visited Trishna and enjoyed the Festive Tasting Menu, which provided a great mix of flavors with some courses offering a choice of dishes. Each dish was thoughtfully presented and well-prepared, with highlights like the Tandoori Lamp Chop and the Chemmeen Muringa Theeyal. The service was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall pleasant experience. We had a glass of champagne to accompany our meal which was a great addition. Trishna is a lovely spot for a special meal, especially during the festive season.

Good Indian food. Probably a Michelin restaurant

¡Amamos a Trishna! Comida deliciosa, excelentes cócteles, personal atento y amable. El suave cangrejo de concha, salmón con eneldo y pimienta, y el helado de coco - helado eran sensacionales, destacan - en el menú de almuerzo de 4 platos. Muy recomendable

Just lovely! Feels like family, relaxed, sophisticated cooking, new flavours, highly recommended.

Indian food with one Michelin star is pretty good. It feels like fashionable Indian food. It’s also good to order a cocktail. The pre-dinner biscuits dipped in the three sauces are also quite delicious. The Indian food in London is really delicious. Each one has different delicacies, and their hand pancakes are delicious with butter! Never leave! The main course curry sauce is delicious whether it is dipped in soy sauce pancakes or mixed with rice!

Although it had been a while since my last visit, I have been a long time fan of Trishna, having dined there perhaps 4-5 times in the past. On this occasion I visited for a Sunday lunch with the wife and kids. It felt like not much had changed in terms of the décor and even the menu looked very familiar. The 4 of us ordered the papadums, chaat, Tellicherry squid & shrimps, tandoori salmon, coconut scallops, Dorset crab, gongura lamb and the spinach, along with some naans and rice. For dessert we shared the chocolate chikki and fig kheer. It was a lot of food and we packed some to take home. The quality of the food was solid throughout and felt quite consistent with prior visits, but at the same time I was not really blown away by any of the dishes. I did love their Kithul old fashioned though! Service was excellent, staff were very friendly and professional and pretty much all of them seemed to originate from India as did most of the other guests, which all helped to create an authentic vibe. The bill for our family lunch came to a punchy £336, of which around £100 was spent on drinks. On the whole an enjoyable meal but I feel like Trishna may have lost some of its spark by standing still while the Indian restaurant scene has continued to evolve in London. Just within the JKS family itself there are newer and more exciting offerings such as Bibi and Ambassadors Clubhouse (with a recent meal at the latter being substantially cheaper than Trishna). Clearly Trishna has retained a loyal following as the place was packed and to reiterate the food was enjoyable while service was a strong point, but all that said it would no longer feature in my top picks for Indian food in London.

I enjoyed the food very much. Delicious! (I read a one star review saying 'Average food', and I ask myself what food those reviewers eat every day?!). Minus one star: In the front room it was very loud; almost impossible to have a conversation.

We used this restaurant for one of our special Kerala festival day and the choice of menu and the cooking was simply out of this world. We even got a chance to meet the Head Chef and complimented him personally. The head waiter and his team were on top of their game, attentive and professional. Trishna should be on every Londoner's list of restaurants that should be visited. Will certainly go back. Well done all

Quite possibly the best Indian meal I have ever had. When you arrive you could easily be fooled into thinking that this is just another mid-market Indian restaurant, but you would be wrong. From the moment you step inside, you are treated like royalty by the friendly, attentive and most importantly... knowledgeable staff. The food is outstanding. we opted for a tasting feast which had been specially prepared for Diwali. Every dish was beautifully presented and prepared. the use of spices was spectacular. some of the dishes (lobster and scallops) required subtle sauces and did not disappoint. This restaurant avoided the temptation to make everything "hot", opting for wonderful and varied taste instead. the wine list is expansive, and there are some very pricey options. that said there is a varied enough list to cater for almost any preference and budget. highly recommended

This is the best restaurant I have eaten so far. Starters and main dishes (chicken) were amazing. Services were really good, really make us feel comfortable.

Fantastic food, and brilliant service! Top notch

Was brought here by a friend while traveling. I’ve always loved Indian flavours but had never gone as far as fish and seafood so the lunchtime tasting menu was an excellent choice. Beautiful food, delightful drinks offerings, very attentive and informative service from all.

Wow! We had the four course tasting menu at Trishna and were blown away. The food and service was impeccable and a flavor explosion. Do not miss this restaurant if you are in London.

Fantastic food and a great atmosphere, really lovely staff, thank you

From the poppadoms to the dessert, amazing flavours and great quality. Honestly broccoli has no business tasting that good :) Definitely try the Dorset crab curry! Service is lovely and the wine list quite interesting and well curated. Price wise while not cheap it's very reasonable for a meal of this standard in Marylebone

Came here from Yonder. In all honesty, I hadn’t checked the prices beforehand so it was more than expected. HOWEVER, the service, atmosphere and food here is exceptional. No wonder it has a Michelin star. The total meal cost was more than was initially planned but frankly for the service and quality received, I was very pleased with what we got. The biryani is certainly a sharing plate, I got it for myself and there was plenty for me to take home and enjoy for another meal! Price may be high but at least it’s a good portion size! The mixed selection of breads is also very good. The staff provided a free birthday dessert too. The staff here definitely care about your experience and it was felt. Would recommend!

Beautiful Diwali lunch in the private dining room. Incredible food, exceptional service (thank you Julius!!!). Our group had a truly beautiful time - thanks to the team!

Exceptional Dining Experience! The entire staff was impeccable, but special recognition goes to the sommelier, whose knowledge and attention to detail truly elevated our meal. The service was warm, professional, and refined throughout the evening. The lamb chops were cooked to perfection—tender, flavorful, and a must-try for anyone dining here. A seamless blend of exquisite cuisine and outstanding hospitality.

We had the lunch menu. Squid was not fresh and chewy. Star of the show was the aubergine for me. Unfortunately the main course was disappointing for a Michelin star restaurant… Asked for the rest of the menu to be take away well ahead, waiter had filled the food with used cutlery and serviettes from other members of the party. To my surprise, whilst waiting to see what happens next, he then returned with the same boxed up 😨😵‍💫 Following our disappointment, members of the party ended up with Diarrhoea 🤦🏻‍♀️ Definitely not going back here again

My wife and I went here when we were staying in London for the night. The ambience is lovely, the service is excellent and the food was superb. We tried the 5 course tasting menu. This was £100 per person and every course was great. The tandoori lamb chop I think was probably the best. Would definitely recommend this place and we will try one of the sister restaurants.

Cool vibes and a relaxed atmosphere! The malai kofta was incredibly delicious, and the rose petals added a unique touch to the chicken biryani.

Les plats sont raffinés. Le service est très agréable et très bien organisé. À s’y rendre absolument si vous êtes à Londres.

Very average cafe style outside decor style, untypical of the ‘regency stone’ london buildings we are all very used to. Small and cosy interior, which is quite a muted decor that is forgotten by the average man. Interior lights and fittings also lost to the eye. Having tasted Indian food across the world- we ordered the tasting menu (early evening). The chaat vegetarian dish was palatable - but nothing different nor surprising. Rather flat and nothing ‘inventive’. Perhaps evoking a gastronomy element here would take this dish to the next level- with animation and smokiness to add depth to the dish. Also wrapping this up in filo pastry would bring extra texture. The main course was not spicy enough, we had to send it back to the kitchens, despite notifying them of our palate beforehand. The worst thing is that the chef actually disagreed with our view on the food…remarks you would not even want to hear… Dessert was a kulfi - with edible flowers on top. As an amateur cook, I could prepare a kulfi in moulds and put two sliced apples casually posed by the side of the dish. Indian noodles with crumbs, green apple sauce, some red textured bits on the plate only add confusion in a dish that lacks cohesion and clarity. Chef really needs to rethink the whole menu- to create balance across the dishes, yet oozing flavour. Currently there is a fair line up but not enough done to make memorable. Small variyari (seed dessert cleanser) to finish. Food is not green park level in like with other Michelin star restaurants, but a cafe esq Indian experience that, unfortunately, fails to deliver. I will not be returning but continuing my journey of discovering the very best Indian restaurants the world has to offer…

Casual vibe but with excellent service. Food was extremely well flavoured but also the quality of the meats came through (particularly the venison). Interesting seafood options - Dorset crab and lobster - that we enjoyed. Recommend the cocktails as well to start. The sweets (particularly rose) were a nice touch at the end. Probably the best Indian I have had in London.

Checked out the restaurant after finding it on Yonder. The food and service was exceptional. We also received complementary dessert to celebrate our special occasion. Would definitely visit again and highly recommend.

Elegant High-end Indian Restaurant in the Marylebone neighborhood of London. Cozy decoration and very attentive and correct service. British and Indian Public. Nice soft music🎵 Spectacular 5-course Vegetarian Tasting Menu. In the next reincarnation I want to be a rich vegetarian Indian.

During my week-long visit to London from California, I made it a point to explore the city's renowned Indian cuisine. Trishna, a restaurant recommended by Google search, was where I met a high school friend for dinner. While my expectations were high, the vegetarian food was just okay. The kofta (HYDERABADI SUBZ KOFTA) was dry (although the restaurant kindly refunded me for it), but the eggplant dish (BABY AUBERGINE VATHAGAL) and the coconut & corn tikki were both excellent. The bread basket offered three varieties, but I only enjoyed the kulcha. The ambience was a bit cramped with tables placed too close together. However, the service was outstanding, especially since they refunded me for the kofta. Overall, I'd give Trishna a 4-star rating. However, given the vast number of restaurants I haven't yet explored in London, I probably wouldn't go back.

From the moment we arrived we were greeted with a friendly smile from all the staff. We were seated and offered the cocktail menu, closely followed by the head waiter going through the food menu options with us. We chose one of the tasting menus. There were a few real surprises. Who knew that partridge would take spices so well. The venison, lamb and lobster were all a delight. My big surprise was the spinach and sweet corn, which both my wife and I enjoyed. I've never had spinach taste like that before. We shared the two deserts, one an apple kulfi and other was the "perfect combination of chocolate, ginger, pistachios and jackfruit ice cream." More than just a chocolate cake. On leaving, my wife forgot to take her hat. I contacted the restaurant and with no fuss, they had already posted it to our home in Sweden. We appreciated this greatly and look forward to returning to Trishna's.

Amazing Indian Feast at Trishna! 4 of us recently dined at Trishna, and it was an unforgettable experience! We started with the aloo tokri chaat and paneer tikka – both bursting with flavor. The coconut and corn tikka was a unique and delightful surprise (probably my fav), and the garlic prawns were perfectly seasoned. The star of the night had to be the hariyali bream – fresh, vibrant, and cooked to perfection. For mains we also enjoyed the chemmen manga curry, which had just the right balance of spices and tanginess. The makai palak was creamy and satisfying, and the assorted breads and rice complemented every dish. For dessert we had the rasmalai, pistachio kulfi and mango Pannacota. Although we were so full from the meal we absolutely polished these!! Beyond the fantastic food, the service was excellent—attentive and friendly without being overbearing. Our server was excellent and extremely knowledgeable and his suggestion 10/10. The ambience was warm and inviting, making it the perfect setting for a relaxed and enjoyable meal. Overall, the food was superb, and I’d highly recommend Trishna to anyone craving authentic and innovative Indian cuisine. Can’t wait to visit again!

Magnificent restaurant both for the food and for the staff who are super friendly

Decided to give it a go after seeing this restaurant at yonder. The restaurant offers a wide menu with tasting sets as well. I recommend getting the set as the portions here are quite large. However the food was not as delicious or exciting as other Michelin starred restaurants I have visited. Its still good to visit for a lunch but don’t have too high expectations

Outstanding food, which is not overpriced. The most friendly service I have ever seen. We will be back!

The food, service, and atmosphere was perfect! The servers were so knowledgeable regarding the food and wine pairings and we truly enjoyed our experience. The ambiance is very intimate, perfect for a group or a date night.

The best dining experience from our weekend getaway. The food was unmatched, service was friendly and informative, atmosphere was perfection. We will recommend to all of our friends. And will be back!

Incredible food matched with just as good service. The interior is super cosy and welcoming with stylish retro images of Indian heritage scattered around the place purposefully. Love 🤌 We had the 4 course lunch menu which is brilliant value for money at £55pp. Very generous sized portions. The dhal was the highlight for me closely followed by the lamb curry. Dress code is relaxed so don’t worry about throwing on your best gear! Thank you Trishna, we’ll be back. 🫡

This review is not influenced by staff of Trishna The food was great but not excellent. We ordered the seabream, tellichery squid and shrimps and the Mutton chops, the first two of which were good but not remarkable in any aspect. The Mutton chops were excellent but very pricey for the portion size but I understand this is a fine dine however the atmosphere is not exceptional either. The assorted bread basket was a total let down. The kulcha amongst them was too raw. For the price we pay this place is not worth it and is saved by the service. I would rather go to Kricket in Picaddily ,although it's Indian fusion, I can't remember one dish that is not praiseworthy.

One of the wonderful Indian restaurants in London. It has a Michelin star. The service is great and the food is good They have a branch with a different name located in Riyadh, and branches around the world

Bland food, far too overpriced. Very little flavour and the dal seemed watered down. £200 bill felt like a complete rip off. How Trisha is michellin starred is genuinely beyond me.

Bland food that is very overpriced. We went for a birthday and both left confused as to how Trishna has a michellin star. We've had many indian meals in London and Trishna was the worst. Wouldn't return even on a free work lunch.

Best Indian food I have ever tasted. Would have loved the tasting menu - our neighbor table had it and it looked spectacular. The sommelier was amazing - he knew all about Austrian wines (where we live)! Very impressive - altogether a perfect evening. Thank you!

Food was alright. But they gave us the table for only two hours. So inspite of spending a fortune for the food, they rushed us through the different courses in such a hurried fashion that it ruined the experience for me. Especially since I had gone there for my birthday and wanted to enjoy a nice relaxing meal with my family :(. Won’t ever go back.

Superb taster menu. Added lamb chop house speciality as icing on the cake. So many superb courses - crab real treat - and some excellent red wine. Expensive of course but brilliant experience.

It's the second time I go. The place is very nice and the waiters are very friendly and professional. I think this second time I had the bad luck of going during rush hour and the service seemed somewhat overwhelmed. Prices for 2 pax €273 menu without pairing and with 2 bottles of water. For this price and the distinction of a star you have to demand perfection. Something that they do not comply with at all times. The women's bathroom had a waterlogged floor and smelled of pee. As for the food, it is of very good quality but be clear that you have to prepare so that everything is very spicy. To conclude that I am not dissatisfied with the place but for my part I would not return.

Great food and lovely atmosphere. One of the best Indian restaurants in London

Delicious but pricey food. Rated 3 stars for adding the donation to the bill without asking - please don't do that.

Trishna, a Michelin-starred restaurant in London’s Marylebone Village, offers a refined culinary journey through the rich flavors of southern India. Its dedication to tradition and innovation shines through in every dish, with the tasting menu serving as an exquisite showcase of the restaurant’s culinary mastery. The aloo chaat, a lively burst of contrasting flavors and textures, brings together tangy tamarind, sweet cooling yogurt, perfectly spiced chickpeas, and crispy potatoes in a vibrant medley. Another standout, the shahi salmon tikka, is beautifully marinated in spices that enhance the natural richness of the fish without overpowering it. The salmon is cooked to perfection—charred on the outside and buttery soft within. It pairs seamlessly with the wild mushroom pilau, where the mushrooms' earthiness complements the tikka's subtle smokiness. The melt-in-your-mouth beef short-rib coconut fry is an absolute must for meat lovers. Slow-cooked to perfection, the savory depth of the beef is uplifted by tangy pickled shallots and balanced by the podi uthappam—a thick, pancake-like South Indian flatbread dusted with a fragrant spice blend of roasted lentils and dried chilies. The combination creates a rich, satisfying dish with layers of flavor and texture. Trishna is more than a meal; it’s an experience that deserves a place on any food lover's itinerary in London.

Went to Trishna just after lockdown and had been meaning to come back. 6 of us came, and enjoyed a set menu for my birthday. Every dish was explained, and delivered on flavour. My go to, and favourite dish is the Hyderabadi Subz Kofta. But really, any dish on the menu hits the spot.

We had such a wonderful experience, we came here twice on our vacation! Both the service and the food is outstanding, and really stand out in a city which is known for having the “best Indian food”, Trishna goes a step above the rest. When compared to other Michelin star restaurants in the area, the kind and welcoming service definitely is super appreciated. I would recommend this place for vegetarians and meat eaters alike, as it is super flavorful and of the highest quality.

One of the best tasting menus I’ve had in London, with complex and interesting dishes throughout. The Venison and Scallop courses in particular were delicious, and whilst I didn’t order it, the wine pairing looked considered and worth it. With many seafood dishes, it provided a taste of Indian food that isn’t as common. Portions were generous, and I (and other tables I could overhear) were not left hungry by the end as some tasting menus can leave you. Would very happily return, no weak points throughout my visit.
