The best restaurants serving Asian food in London

Food was good, service was very slow, served food at 2 and half hours after arrival. Only 2 groups of patrons there, a group of 8 and a group of 6. ???

Ordered takeaway from Mantanah tonight. The two curries were full of flavour and everything felt very fresh and authentic. Will definitely be dining in at the restaurant soon!

I would not even bother going there, we have booked for 25 people. They gave the smallest portions ever and there was just too much sauce so they could sell smaller portions. As we pre booked, we wanted to have some music, but apparently, music wasn't available, and they didn't know how to switch it on. The service was very poor, we had to keep going to the bar and ask for cutlery, cups etc, we even had to arrange the tables ourselves. So guys, this is one place we will never visit again and will not recommend it to anyone else.

I went there for a couple of drinks, the atmosphere was nice and quiet. I had a good time and Rajon was a very lovely host. He kindly looked after me and my date. 5 stars :)

I ordered a curry after a long day travelling to London, via Just Eat. I ordered a samosa (they gave me four little delicious ones), a vegetarian Tikka Masala which was delicious, bombay potatoes, very tasty, and the most delicious of all was the saag paneer which was truly delicious! And very nice pilau rice. Everything was absolutely piping hot! Will defo order again when staying in Shepherds Bush!

It was a great experience that we had at Banana Leaf. Right from the time we entered, the ambience the food and till the time we left the experience was truly awesome. Deepanshu, took care of us and he ensured that all our requests were addressed and most importantly he served with a smile. Will highly recommend Banana Leaf to all who are visiting London.

Chill restaurant, good vibe, loved Alisha

I love the food at Yori and I've been many times. That being said, yesterday I had a frustrating experience and want to leave a record (turned into an essay lol) so that hopefully staff can better address similar situations in the future. Also this will hopefully warn others to avoid the problem I had. TLDR: I came on my own and had no booking (nobody else did amongst 8 people in the queue) I was told to wait like the rest. I waited 30 minutes whilst starving. Everyone other than me was seated. When it came to my turn I was told there were no tables and abruptly asked to leave with no explanation. The whole time I could see 1 small empty table where I could have be seated. The details: I arrived at the restaurant on my own without a reservation at 4:55pm, and started queuing behind ~8 other people. The place was busy. Within a couple of minutes the first few were seated (they had no reservation) and the rest of us queing were asked if we had a reservation (none of us did) and told to wait. I waited a total of 30 minutes in queue, 25 of which the staff was aware of me having told me to wait. Everyone ahead of me was seated eventually. During the whole time I was waiting I could see at least one small empty table where I could have been seated, but this was not offered to me. Possibly it was reserved, but nobody used it. By the time I was first on the queue there were at least 10 other people behind me. Groups of different sizes, some with reservations, some without. Finally when my turn came, I was abruptly told: "sorry, we have no tables" and asked to leave. This was awful after waiting for 30 minutes and after seeing many other people without a reservation being seated. I can only imagine that they may not have wanted to offer me a table because I was on my own, and there were other people behind me so they may make more money by seating a group of two instead on my place. Well, long term, that strategy may backfire. I've been to Yori at least 20 times before, and have brought my partner, family members and friends (perhaps 8 different people that I can recall) with me. So Yori has made decent business out of me over the last couple of years. After this experience I am far less likely to return or to recommend the place. Short term seating 2 people instead of 1 may yield slightly more profit (better utilisation of space, although less than 2x revenue since 1 person typically orders, eats and leaves much faster than 2). Treating a customer so poorly means that long-term the customer won't return or refer the restaurant. Although there are many variables at play and it's hard to estimate, an incident like this may cost a restaurant hundreds or even thousands of pounds of lost future revenue if the customer never returns and stops referring the place. I'd venture a restaurant will lose a lot of potential revenue if treating people like this. Unless it relies mainly on one-off visits from tourists rather than regulars, which some in this central location do. Yori has many branches though, so it doesn't reflect well in the brand. The place was very busy as mentioned earlier, so I am sure staff was a bit overwhelmed and a bit disorganised and that's why this regrettable incident happened. Not claiming this was some sort of personal attack. All in all, great food, but don't do on your own, and don't go without reservation unless you are prepared to wait for 30 minutes and risk being told to leave afterwards.

Have been coming here since it opened in 2004. Staff are so friendly, always welcoming, even if i have not been for a while. The food is excellent, there is no denying that, however it has become very very expensive. I found a bill from 2013 and its now 100% more expensive. So its more of a special treat now! best when you are not paying the bill!

Por recomendación de mi amigo, tenía curiosidad por venir a este lugar... Como amigo había sido varias veces... Oh la anticipación jajaja Llegamos y nos dijeron que la mesa no estaba lista ese sábado por la noche a las 8 de la noche, así que había bebidas en el bar... los precios de las bebidas, los dos cócteles que tuvimos eran definitivamente más baratos que el centro de Londres, lo que era una ventaja... e igualmente sabroso lo único negativo fue el vaso pequeño mi cóctel 'apiron' se sirvió en @ £ 11 ... . Pudimos leer el menú y no era muy ruidoso que era bueno, Luego nos llevaron a la mesa / restaurante que estaba bastante lleno una encantadora camarera 'uma' que nos sirvió durante la noche nos ofreció algunas recomendaciones que se agradece... . Amigo dijo ir al mar - bajo, y un montón de mesas había ordenado que vi 👀 Tomé una cerveza con agua de la esposa, y pedimos la brocheta de pollo, langostinos curados con cítricos (tengan cuidado ahí extremadamente picantes 🌶️) como entrada Curry de venado de la selva (no es lo que esperaba, anti clímax ) x 2 arroces y lubinas como principal... el plato es más o menos todos llegaron juntos / con pocos minutos de diferencia, no es lo que esperábamos, pero no hay drama... . El problema era que aunque la comida era preciosa mis papilas gustativas fueron destruidas de la entrada de gambas... Uma sugirió un poco de agua de jazmín que fue apreciado... Terminamos con arroz pegajoso de Jackfruit y helado de azúcar de palma, lo que alivió mis papilas gustativas... aparentemente mi esposa dijo que mi cara era como una remolacha de la comida picante a la que estoy acostumbrado... sin embargo, era un poco OTT nivel... En general una buena comida, en una zona de moda para restaurantes... El millón de dólares pregunta cuál es el mejor... Bar o horno de barcos o este lugar... Como el horno es mesa de cocina probablemente gane... y el barco de velocidad tenía algunos platos fantásticos para, posiblemente, ganar som saa también... Dependiendo de lo que ordenes... Sin embargo som saa decoración es ganador...
