+2A true hidden gem! Fine dining food at local prices. The food is so different from any other Indian restaurant I have ever been to. Presentation is amazing, but I only care about the taste and it is absolutely TASTY!! - from the poppadoms to super chargrilled lamb chops and the best Biryani. My only wish was for more lamb :) Service was perfect - so friendly & personal from our waitress who gave us some good recommendations. Coincidentally, we saw the chef as we came in and he showed us where to go as it is hidden away in the 1st floor of an office building. Just across the road from Hackbridge train and well worth the journey if you are not local. Lucky for me I am just about within walking distance and so lucky me!u

9.5/10It was my first time here and the food was amazing, the Aloo Tiki Chaat was unreal and it certainly took me back down memory lane. the Pani Puri’s were delicious and our curries were perfectly spiced, seasoned and non-oily just the way I like it. The service was very good, friendly and polite. The team checked on us to make sure we were well watered etc. A lovely birthday celebrated. I’ll be returning again with my parents soon. Thank you.

8/10Food and service were very good. Ambience I am sure improves at the weekend when more diners visit.
Rishi's in Slate & Grain brasserie • Owner
Hi Julia , Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the food and service. You're absolutely right—the ambience tends to be more vibrant on the weekends when we often have a full house. The atmosphere can really come alive depending on the number of guests, and weekends are generally the busiest. Of course, this can also vary with the weather, as many diners enjoy outdoor seating when it's nice outside. Timing also plays a role—peak hours on weekends see the most activity, adding to the overall experience. We do recommend making reservations for weekend visits to ensure you get the best spot. We look forward to welcoming you back soon! Thank you again for sharing your thoughts with us. Best regards, Rishi's in Slate and Grain

+3Fantastic modern restaurant in a secluded setting. The food and service was first class with the owner taking time out to talk to all the guests. Authentic Madras Cuisine cooked to perfection.

10/10This restaurant offers authentic Indian dishes and is unusually sited on the first floor with access by lift from the ground floor foyer. There is a spacious and modern dining area and outside roof terrace where can eat when the weather is favourable. I have enjoyed different excellent curries there on two occasions (since I discovered it last week), chosen from the A la Carte menu which was pleasingly short and cooked to order by Rishi the Chef and owner. His basmati rice was perfect. A number of set menu deals were also on offer.

Hi Mr John Payne, Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed our Authentic Indian dishes and that both of your visits were memorable.

Despite being quite hidden/tucked away from the street, I had a great experience! Wish I’d discovered it sooner… Nice decor, ambience and a menu that’s not huge (which is better than most Indian restaurants) I had the paneer makhani and butter naan, which was authentically flavoured. I’ll be back to try more 😁
