Food is always excellent and the service is prompt and professional. They should give you the ability to book a table as it often crowded at theater time

Food was delicious! Loved that this place had so much history and character. Felt very authentic. Would definitely come back.

Delicious every time! This time I tried the lamb kebab with mint sauce and it was so flavorful with the perfect amount of spice. Can't go wrong with their curries and garlic naan

The best Indian restaurant we've ever been to. The kadu puri was our favorite! Never tasting anything like that before.

Came here to try the oldest punjab restaurant in London and it was delicious! We arrived just before closing and they were kind enough to serve us since we knew right away what we wanted to order. Everything was super tasty and the portions were perfect. We shared three dishes, 3 rices and 1 naan between 3 people and it was plenty. The butter chicken was my favorite

This restaurant was conveniently located near our hotel, so we decided to stop by on our way back. The place has a charming sense of history, with a menu showcasing photos and a timeline of its journey from its opening to its expansion--a nice touch that added character to our visit. The food was enjoyable overall, and we had a pleasant dining experience. Here's a breakdown: Paneer Tikka: A standout dish, earning 4 stars for its soft, flavorful preparation. Paneer Butter Masala: A solid choice at 3.5 stars--not exceptional but satisfying. Chole: Unfortunately, this fell short at 2.5 stars. Finding truly great chole in London remains elusive. Naan: Fresh and fluffy, scoring 3.5 stars. The service was excellent, with attentive staff who made the experience more enjoyable. A good spot for a casual meal with a touch of history.

Butter chicken !!!! Yes please when I heard that this was the best place to go I had to try it for myself. Also my 5 yr old is a huge butter chicken fan and he gave his thumbs up. We didn't have a reservation as it said they took walk ins and that reservations were for bigger parties. It was a cute little space felt like I was sitting amongst family. Yes you had to squeeze your way to a table but there was plenty of room once you were seated. Little secret the area we were seated was not the main dining room but a mere annex. I didn't realize that until after dinner when I went to the loo to wash up. This place was really big and every single nook was packed with tables and chairs. Either way it still felt like a cozy spot with friends and family. The staff was very friendly and helpful when ordering. Also they were able to make small exceptions for children. The menu had lots of options to choose from. Don't worry for those that are vegan plenty to choose from too. My son whose main reason for going was to get the butter chicken that's what he got. Now this is not the average chicken that's cuts into chunks and smothered in sauce. The chicken was still on the bone and cooked with their famous creamy sauce and butter. Chef's kiss as my son said, going into his second plate. My husband and I decided we wanted to try the chicken tikka masala. The tandoori masala tomato base sauce was delicious and full of flavor onto the rice. We had two options. My son always likes to get the plain white basmati but my husband and I decided to venture out and get the pilau rice. The pilau rice is just like the white basmati rice. Just this one is cooked with human seeds and then my opinion has a little more of a kick and full of flavor. We also had to decide which naan we were going to get, and we all decided to get the garlic. The garlic naan was hands-down very delicious. I liked that it had slivers of fresh garlic on it, which paired really well when dipping it into the sauce of the butter chicken. I will tell you when the dishes come out and you look at it. You think these are pretty small maybe I'll order some more food later. I'll tell you from my experience you will have extra food left over. My son ate about three plates of butter chicken I also had some of his dish my husband and I split the the chicken tikka masala, and there were still chicken left. Then of course after dinner, they ask if you want dessert and I was super full, but when I saw that they had this tea, I needed to try it. This chai drink is called masala Chai. When I read the description, it brought me back to my childhood. I could smell this tea already. My uncle, who is from Pakistan used to make this tea on his stove after a meal and he sit there and stirred. He had to watch it and make sure it didn't burn but it had to be just right before he could serve it to anyone. I remember asking him one time can I try that tea. He told me it's not your regular tea has a bit of a spice to it, but I will serve some and you let me know what you think. When I tell you this tea brought me back to my childhood I had to text my cousin right away. It brought tears to my eyes because I miss those days so much. As I sat there sipping on this tea all these memories rush through my head. You have to come here and try them out. You will want to order everything like I wanted to especially looking at different orders coming out for other tables. Everything looked delicious tasted great. If you plan a trip to London, you have to add this to your list of places to eat at.

I went to this place a little over a decade ago and it was one of my must come back to places. It was just as I remember it and the food is even better than I remember. Everyone was super nice and we got our food quick even though we had a bit of a wait on a busy Saturday night. I love the history and the pictures along the wall and in the menu. Every dish I have ever had here has been amazing so please try different things.

There's a certain charm to this place when you first enter; family photos on the walls; deep blue and yellow colors. We were seated in the back close 6pm on Sunday and there were already a few tables full. I looked around and saw the dishes to be smaller than expected so ordered a few more just in case. I got 2 apps, samosas and aloo tikki rolls. For mains, I got butter chicken (fav), lamb korma (interesting coconut milk flavor?), lamb biryani, gobi aloo (cauliflower and potato), baigan (stewed eggplant in tomato sauce), and garlic naan. 2 adults and 2 kids were stuffed. There are lots of vegan options and the Cobra beer went well with the food.

Whenever I get to London - this is a NECESSARY stop. The first time I entered this restaurant was 8 years ago and the feeling is just the same today. The food is beyond... I often try new dishes at the suggestion of the waiter. I've yet to be disappointed. Even my very picky eating son has found food happiness here The restaurant is a welcome beacon on the London food scene and it will forever be a stop when I'm across the pond.
