    The food was perfect and we walked away not feeling that extra bloated feeling you sometimes get. We ordered the butter chicken, lamb rogan josh, palak paneer (presented in a way I have never experienced before), cucumber raita, garlic naan and 2 chapatis. Every single one of them was utterly delicious. Will be returning!

    Tomato-based curry with tender paneer and bell pepper, garnished with spices and fresh tomato slices, alongside a flavorful lamb curry in a glossy sauce.

    best curry in Bricklane for large groups

    Quality of the curry was very high but we waited 1 hr 20 to get any food at all. They had obviously accepted too many reservations. If we had spotted the delay earlier we would have gone somewhere else.

    We often go to Brick Lane and while the wine list was very very very disappointing (nothing too surprising here but Hardy's, please?), the food was really nice and we had a lovely dinner, much tastier than other nearby restaurants with similar menu.

    The menu was a different one than the one on “The Fork”, because there was a 50% discount. It meant that half the dishes I saw on The Fork were not available to us. They made us wait quite a while for the food, and when it came it was small portions, like you never get portions that small at any other Indian restaurant…. The food was ok, just average for an Indian restaurant, and nowhere near the nice reviews I was reading on The Fork. The atmosphere was not very nice, the service not very attentive, they seemed more concerned with letting other people coming in from the street. In other words, I will Not be going back to this restaurant.

    Very good and tasty food. Waiter barely spoke English and wasn't much help to choose a dish. No desserts.

    Great restaurant! Highly recommend. Just note that if it says 50% from booking through the app, you will not receive that from them. However, it is still worth going to.

    Staff were very friendly & helpful, our only critic was that the service was fairly slow. We were allowed to bring in drinks if required, which was a good option. The food was tasty and good sized portions, the poppadoms were so thin and tasted fab (best ever). We booked with The Fork Festival 50% off - Brilliant. We would return 👍

    We went to celebrate my friend’s birthday. Food was good in general. The wine requested was too warm. The service was average. The waitress in charge that night was not really empathetic.

    Bit of a try-out over a catch-up. My friend enjoyed his tandoori, while I tried some stewed duck which was different. The meat was a bit dry, but flavour was ok.

    A bit of shame - I've been here before. Wasn't really greeted well, got told off I was late, when in fact I was early. Waiter was a bit miserable and non-attentive. Food was OKish, not as I remember from last time. Didn't get any discount despite signing up to TheFork for the saving. Not coming back. Sorry, not sorry.
