- Eveline NJanuary 2, 2017Dishoom is a perfect place to experience Indian street food at a great price. Long queues so be prepared to wait. Order okra fries while you wait in the bar - amazing

ReemOctober 29, 2019Lovely vibes and amazing food! The waiter gave us some recommendations so we had: Fried Okra (a must) lamb biryani (9/10) and chicken Ruby (9/10).Definitely worth the visit just try to book in advance
AbhishekDecember 2, 2018Awesome place to share Indian dishes, perfect for groups. Long waiting times (almost an hour or even more) but they serve you spiced chai while you are waiting. But the food is worth the wait!Upvoted Feb 1

Jon YangSeptember 12, 2016Omg I love this place. Best Indian food I've ever had. The Chicken Ruby and the Chicken Berry Britannia were delicious. Also get the roti and buttered garlic naan as sides to dip in the sauce.

Natasa StojcicFebruary 11, 2020Never had better Indian food! Great and fast service, delicious food! If you are not sure what would you like to eat, ask for an advice, staff is super helpful and friendly.
Anita KoimurJanuary 11, 2020It's worth waiting. They serve absolutely mouth-watering, mindblowing dishes! I went for Chicken Ruby, Garlic Naan and Teetotal Espresso Martini. Let alone the service -Beata was exceptionally great!
Y YFebruary 6, 2018Always have my Bombay fix herex Never fail to disappoint! Curry chicken, okra fries, mutton briyani, naan are all my fave!
Duygs DuygsNovember 9, 2019Finally able to try their breakfast and I loved it. Could be slightly more filling compared to what you pay but my overall satisfaction is high. Will come back for dinner!
Nikos BMay 13, 2023Be prepared for a long queue unless you come at 9pm. Chicken Ruby, Black Daal, Chicken Biryani, Keema Pau, chilled Broccoli salad.
Pam LinFebruary 27, 2018Top of my list. Try to go for Breakfast AND another meal if you have the time. Their breakfast chili toast & naan wraps are AMAZING. Kingly Court location has a nice well lit courtyard to sit in too.
Mohammed ♐️July 8, 2023One of the best Indian food restaurants in London. Crowded but well organized. Can’t get enough of coming back.

Dan Mondragón SomeraMarch 1, 2020Menu can be a bit scary if it’s your first time trying Indian food. But just go with the recommendations and you will be fine :) the taste is delicious and the drinks (alcoholic or not) are amazing
Riann Goettl Seymour2 weeks agoThis place is so good! Love the Big Bombay Breakfast and Bacon Egg Naan Roll. Atmosphere and service were also great. Top meal in London for us! 👍 yes
MadaDecember 12, 2022Absolutely delicious food! The black Dahl was the star of the show! I also their breakfast menu is ridiculously delicious. I would recommend a booking. Highly recommend and cannot wait to go back.
Very Good ServiceFebruary 1, 2023Other than the queuing, a great experience. Service is efficient rather than refined. Indian food is the star of the show and the place is very lively
Fabian MartinJuly 30, 2023Dishoom never disappoints. Truly excellent food! The lamb special here was interesting but I wouldn’t take it over the lamb chops
Martin JonassonJune 21, 2016Great Indian place with great atmosphere and breakfast. Go for the Full Bombay breakfast, which is a classic Full English but with an Indian twist.
Sarah AltuwaijriAugust 6, 2019The best vegetable samosa on earth!!! The food is very tasty and the service was fast!! Thank you Dishoom.
- Cheen The CuriousMay 24, 2023Drinks. Their paper menu offers a quick overview, if u r in a hurry. The Permit Room menu has cocktails not listed on the paper menu. The Teetotal Menu lists those with little (or no) alcohol
Gina JuneSeptember 19, 2016The food was delicious. The chilli cheese toast to start was delightful and we had a curry and a tikka dish which were both lovely. Ignore waiter'd advice of 2-3 dishes each - that'd be way too much!
Alexandra GoldsteinNovember 10, 2015A fine array of small sharing dishes. Calamari, okra fries, paneer and black daal are all delicious, and the house chai is lovely. Beautiful setting, too.
eleni paulNovember 29, 2015amazing Indian food! Loved the puffed rice, chicken tikka, prawn tikka, black dahl great and the best naan. Only dish I didn't love was the chicken and pomegranate salad. Great staff too..
Pouya LotfiJuly 10, 2021Dishoom is by far the best ever Indian rest. I’ve ever tried in 15 different countries. Amazing service, the passion, taste & presentation were spectacular. Try House Black Daal, Chiken Ruby & Biryani
Ibrahim AlmulhimOctober 26, 2017One of the best Indian restaurants you can visit in London🌶🌶.waiting for a table shouldn’t be more than 40-50 minuets during weekend. Making reservation would be nice to avoid the hassle
Eman 🤍🇸🇦August 22, 2022Liked ;Okra fries , chicken ruby and grilled prawns , cheese naan, disliked: chicken pyriani , house chaat
Cheryl YeMarch 24, 2017Different from your standard breakfast/brunch in London. The setting is nice and the food - cheap and tasty. Love the oats - it's £3.90 and free flow!
YASSERFebruary 22, 2018Everything is cooked to perfection. Don’t miss the chef special lamb. Chicken masala is Delicious too. Okra fries is a must
Sasha SolomonOctober 6, 2017Went for breakfast. It was pretty crowded for a Friday morning at 9, but it was worth it.Had 2 cups of the House Chai and the Sausage and Egg Naan (with chutney). Soooo gooood.
Cyndie Da RochaSeptember 9, 2018Tasty food, well seasoned and with a nice decor. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful. The only flaw is you have to book 3-4weeks in advance (for groups of 6+).
Caroline MercerSeptember 7, 2017food is amazing! worth the queue time... jackfruit biryani and lamb biryani, paneer tikka, gunpowder potatoes and black daal all spot on and chai tea is unlimited at lunchtime!
Katie AndradeJune 13, 2017The hype is real! Definitely One of the coolest restaurant in the city and delicious food to go along. Definitely ask your server for recommendations to try something new!
Sean QuinlanDecember 21, 2018Huge, delicious menu with a ton of exciting options to come back and try. Bring friends. Min reservation is 6 and you'll need one if you don't want to wait.
Yousef BabatinMarch 14, 2018Biryani Lamb was better than the chicken. Lamb samosa better than the vegi. Chicken Ruby was my favorite. Overall it was a good choice and worth the wait for their price point.- Peter MDecember 14, 2016Indian themed cocktail bar and diner. You queue for tables for some reason. Cool interior, vibe and cocktails are the best bit. Food is indian inspired, so not authentic. Diner feel and service.
NorahSeptember 6, 2022Okra fries 4/5Chicken briyani 4/5Butter chicken 4/5Spicy lamp chops 1/5Grilled prawns 3/51 cheese nan 2/5Friendly staff and good service, place is too loud
Natalie BergmanJune 30, 2019Gunpowder potatoes, lamb boti kebab, black Dal, okra fries, vegetarian samosas, and chicken Britannia all wonderful. Raita and naan good to help calm the spice level.- pipi pawSeptember 20, 2017Grilled Prawn. In love with this place, people foods cocktails, everything is so good. Waited 1.5hour but really worth the wait.
Emily FerdinandiMay 30, 2017Best Indian food I've ever had. We've tried to perfect our order over 10 visits: calamari, veggie samosas, chicken tikka, prawns, Dahl, rice, naan. So so good
Brittany SübersJune 27, 2017Veg samosas, Bombay potatoes, house daal, naan, and rice. I'd recommend the samosas to start and the plain over the cheese naan. Potatoes were flavorful. Service was good. Lines can be long.
Asim TJune 5, 2016The food and the service were great!Even though we've received an alcoholic drink for my pregnant wife, they've immediately reacted with sincere apology, and free of charge dinner!
Chee Wai WongSeptember 17, 2017It's sooooo good we came back again! MUST get the chicken ruby, cheese nan, sali boti (lamb curry) and chai tea.
Clara EloyJuly 30, 2023Can Dishoom even disappoint? The last London venue on my list to try, the food was delicious, service not so good, they forgot about our orders a few times. Decor is stunning.
BiancaFebruary 24, 2017Delicious food all around. The prawns, the lamb samosas - super flavorful. Chicken tikka and the lamb signature dish must be tried. Nice atmosphere too.
