The best restaurants serving Indian food in Southwark London

Came here as part of a large group for dinner and the staff were very helpful accommodating us. We ordered a range of curries and it would be fair to say the food ranged between ok and good. Not outstanding or consistent which I would expect for what was a reasonably expensive Indian. The special curries were better than the more basic ones on the menu. One of us complained that here tasted of Heinz tomato soup! Overall it was ok if you are in the area and fancy a curry but not a place worth travelling too. Came to about £45 per person for mains starters and a few beers.

I went there after university and loved it. The staff were incredibly friendly and the food was good. I recommend the beef with chips.

Best traditional pakistani food ive had in london hands down. 10 out of 10 for prices and quality of food amazing.my new regular to get my food even though takes me 45 min to get there.

Perfect every time!!! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Not enough sauce given. Only received 3 small pots for 4 meals.

Es una lástima que este restaurante se haya visto obligado a cerrar. Uno de los pocos restaurantes indios que en realidad tenía Methi Ghust en su menú, y también era una delicia. Amplias porciones de carne, excelentes arroces y un paratha relleno completaron la fiesta.Gracias al personal también: educado, servicial y nunca condescendiente como lo son algunos restaurantes menores.Esperemos que el propietario pueda encontrar un local de reemplazo cercano, pero me temo que el área de Elephant and Castle pronto estará más allá de la redención.

We always walk past this place and always empty or at least ever time we passed it. That was the main reason we didn’t try it being a chef myself. Then we decided to order a delivery. The price was responsible until you see what you get for your money. The taste is bland on all the items we ordered! Being local myself I did give them the benefit of the doubt but they proved why they are so quiet. Few yards away there are two Indian restaurant both are not excellent far from but much better than this place. Amazed how it’s still open. And the five star ratings? Did you have proper Indian foods?

so disappointed. noisy music, harsh lighting, one out of two women’s loos broken, charmless, no advice over menu, starter came in two minutes, the cauliflower undercooked in a heavy sauce ( we pointed this out, removed from the bill. main courses ok but heavy gloopy sauces. nice crispy pilau rice, smallest raita i have ever seen. we did not finish our food or wine. had been excited as we can walk here but will not return

Nos encanta Nam Thai pero no dispondrán a nosotros porque somos 2. A 8 millas de distancia. Queríamos Tailandés y este parecía ser el fit más cercano.

Lovely place for an evening out. A social and friendly environment. I went with my family and we absolutely loved it. The food was amazing and the pricing was good. I’m not fond of spicy food but the waiters noted that and had the food made milder for us. Would definitely go again, a new favourite.

The food was lukewarm and bland.

Nice dishes, good price, and the owner has always been friendly.

Not used for a while as I tried some others but my favourite and still one of the best out there - plenty of flavour especially the Prawn Puri and the Garlic Mushroom - gave a complimentary free side dish too which was a bonus. Will be back - Thanks

The food was amazing everyone loved it. We always appreciate the time you take to make us our orders. Thank you Purple Mango. To anyone wanting a curry recommendation, their Pathia tastes amazing.

I've been twice, once dining alone early for a very relaxed and very good thali, enjoying the quiet aspect of the location. Soon after for a end of season cricket dinner of 16 guys on a Saturday 8pm on which was superbly hosted by Abu and team. We were treated to a selection of dishes all very tasty and top notch service. The value is exceptional. Our brief speeches and mild revelry were kindly tolerated. Go for a pint in the Royal Oak opposite before where they also serve takeout bottles of the excellent Harveys beers, which you can bring in the Simply Indian (no corkage). I shall return to Simply Indian, I really appreciate them. The food is well beyond your normal UK Indian takeaways, with incentive and flavourful menu.
