Dr. SultanDecember 29, 2014Lovely Indian cuisine. Try their vegetable samosas, chili paneer, cauliflower & potato sebzi, chicken biryani, manchurian chicken. And for desserts, try their pistachio kulfi and masala chai tea.
Shamsa AbdulrahmanFebruary 5, 2014Small place with amazing food. Small plates great for sharing. Veg. Samosa, chili paneer & lamb bun SO GOOD! try the lychee drink, LOVELY! Pistachio Kulfi popsicle 💕 masala chai is not karak but good- Elain TsaiNovember 15, 2013The railway lamb curry was absolutely delicious! It comes with two pieces of roti, but I substituted it for the rice to soak up the curry. The pistachio kulfi is also a must try.
Mela MelOctober 10, 2014New menu! Greater choice of curries, recommend butter chicken or lamb although prawn very nice too. Disappointed by paneer on skewer, I really liked the old version in a bowl. Abs try pistachio kulfi!
Naif SNovember 26, 2021One of the best Indian restaurants in London with a reasonable price. Highly recommend prawns curry and chicken biryani.
JimmyFebruary 14, 2016Left to right - Parsi chicken farcha, railway lamb curry, bun kebab, chicken lollipops and chicken samosa chaat - all recommended!
Fantastic Indian cuisine in the heart of LDN. We went to the buzzing street kitchen on the ground floor. Stars of the show are Dhokla soft and warm, super spicy Hakka chilli paneer and Agni chicken wi
Sameer RautJune 7, 2017The chicken lollypops are great! Masala chai a must. The Paneer chilli is spicy so be careful if you cannot handle the heat.
Kristina VNovember 21, 2018Excellent modern “tapas style” indian food. Order more small dishes and share! Reasonable prices and big tables good for groups.
Amer SharafJuly 27, 2016Can't go wrong with this place. Start with daipoori and samosa and the Chicken Chilli or Kebab Bun for your main.
Khawla AbdullaSeptember 5, 2015The food and atmosphere was good.. Unique indian street view.. Perfect for sharing and tasting .. Try the chicken lollipops, chilli chicken bun and the saffron almond phirni for deser
Hamda Al-HammadiMay 18, 2022Chicken biryani , lollipop chicken and samosa are a must ! I love it thu it’s lil but spicy for me :)- 148 Check us out!May 6, 2016Seekh kebap +++, butter chicken ++, 65 chicken +. Great Indian food fresh and spicy, nice staff. Only the cheese naan is missing to make it perfect!!
MK XTJanuary 12, 2019The upper floor is a tapas-style cafeteria which would be perfect if you just wanted to sample a few things. To give you a sense of the portions, here is an illustration
AFebruary 20, 2018Contemporary indian food tapas style, what not to like about that! Their cocktail menu is marvelous and service is excellent. Go there hungry and order as many dishes as you would like ..
Imogen CSeptember 30, 2016Indian street food upstairs, dining downstairs. Everything we had was delicious, can't wait to go back and try the rest of the street food menu
LAMIASeptember 26, 2018Although I’m not a meat lover, DON’T Miss The Raan e baluchi melts in you mouth, highly recommended😋😍👌🏻 ( palak papri chaat and butter chicken were good) they’ve biriani but not on the menu
Navin RajaramOctober 13, 2013Outstanding service. Great place to go with a baby/toddler. Went to great lengths to make sure we were comfortable. Helped us with warming baby food when Selfridges/M&S cafés were being a pain
_September 16, 2015Try the street kitchen menu! Get the chicken lollipops and samosas for sure! The lychee teapot martini was also refreshing!
The A ReviewsDecember 27, 2013Quick service, tasty food and friendly staff. Theme simplicity & menu defines the place. Dish's are inspired mainly on famous Indian street-food meals. Recommend it 👌Btw, I love Kulfi 😋
MadaDecember 12, 2022This basically a street Indian food which mostly are finger food! But this was the best Indian food I've had in my life. The Raan e baluchi was both tender and savory.
Eman AbdulazizSeptember 10, 2017Extremely overrated. I ate at the below (dining) restaurant. I ordered a dozen items, they were of mediocre taste or even below that level. The service isn't good, too. Also they don't do take away!
R B.G.December 29, 2017Very delicious, try the vegetable samosa, chicken lollipops, chicken curry, and for sure pistachio kolfe
Gabriela GolińczakOctober 8, 2015Nice food in the restaurant on the lower level. More refined but also more expensive beau on of causal Indian food. Delicious
Deborah SimhaMay 20, 2017Amazing food. Very fast service. Try the chicken tandoori as a starter, prawns as a main and cheesecake for desert. All absolutely delicious !
Eline M.December 10, 2017this is for the dining room downstairs. so! good! service was really efficient and attentive and the food was great. would definitely come back!
Suresh KumarJuly 2, 2015Finally mDe it to Roti Chai. Small manageable bite sized street food. Really liked paneer tasty breads and daal. Staff were courteous and friendly but shortage of staff.
B❤️June 30, 2017There are two restaurants one is modern which is up and one is classic which is down , go down try chili brown , chicken butter and nan bread 🍞
Deema_FahadFebruary 3, 2016One of the best Indian restaurants in London❤️ .. Lower floor for fine dining ( more options ) .. Ground floor street food ..
Robert FreebornOctober 12, 2018Looking for a great, modern, take on Indian food - this is it. If you're looking for "classic" Indian food with the massive menu...look elsewhere.
Very nice Indian street food. Take 1-2 small plates and one bigger plate per person. Definitely made to share. Delicious food. Nice service.
Justine RJune 3, 2017Delicious Indian food - ask for the 35£ menu for a very good value deal. Only negative thing is they don't give your left overs as take away... not good for food waste!
AmateurConciergeNovember 2, 2014Great chaat and dhaba style offerings that are like mom makes. Plenty of non-heavy offerings
Yara AlGorainiAugust 19, 2014Great location , excellent service and delicious food but they don't serve all of Indian dishes.. If you'll dine here bring your ear plugs it's too noisy🔥🌝
Kate ThotaMay 10, 2017Overall, good food and an interesting cross section of different types of Indian food. Service was so-so. Also note no take away, so don't plan on carting your leftovers home with you.
GDecember 14, 2016Amazing bun chilli chicken and chicken lollipops 💘💘💘 and never miss the masala tea 😍
MumuMarch 7, 2019Great place to share small plates. Would love to check the downstairs dining area next time 🥘
YasmineApril 15, 2013Great street food with a kick. The lamb is amazing. Avoid the manchurian though - basically a glorified sweet and sour chicken.
Natalie JonesSeptember 13, 2022I had the prawns and a naan. The portion size was perfect and it was absolutely delicious
Are these the same guys as the ones with the food truck? Delicious, well-spiced Indian food - none of that identikit greasy curry here! Railway Lamb Curry was a highlight
Katerina BristSeptember 27, 2018Solid taste - not extraordinary. I loved the starters more than the curries. I would visit again.
LonW2 estatesJune 1, 2012South Indian regular breakfast and dinner dish: Idli Sambar - steamed rice cakes with vegetable & lentil stew. Ideally located near Marble Arch and behind Oxford Street London W1.
Khaled Al-SheddiNovember 23, 2018Here I’m again , can’t resist the best Indian food in town , don’t miss the starter “ the chicken sumbosa”
Alberto MenegazziJune 4, 2017Very good food, a little bit too expensive, especially drinks and the fact that main dishes come without sides. And sides are priced quite high for what you get- Akin Y.April 20, 2019Awesome Indian restaurant with a variety of well spiced quick bites. Try out the Paneer, though. It’s delicious.
Mr. AseelOctober 5, 2015Good indian food, chicken wings was great!! Wish to have chicken tikka masala but they don't.
Yara ZahidNovember 4, 2019the chicken is really delicious, full of flavors & the staff are friendly.
Joan Vidal BoschJune 4, 2017The menu of 35£ is excellent. The lamb was extremely good. The bad thing is that they didn't have doggy bags and lot's of food went to waste...
