Absolutely delicious dinner!…read more We made reservations online about 2 months ago. 5:15 dinner worked well for us since we had a show at 7. We checked in on the lady with the tablet on the right side of the entrance. The left side is for walk ins. Super long line even at 5pm. But they were handing out small glasses of chai and something else. Anyway, the reservation line is short and they sat us right away. We wished we could have sat at the patio - it's covered. We didn't see that until we were already drinking. Well, next time! The ambiance - beautiful spot with lots and lots of tables. Every single one of them was taken. Tons of staff! They take good care of you here. Patrons vary, from dates to family dinners - the whole gamet! Come one, come all! The drinks came out right away. Dishoom IPA and chai. Beer came with a frosted glass. The chai was delicious! The food was amazing! Goan monkfish curry Ruby chicken Saffron cauliflower Garlic naan Basmati rice Everything was superb!

We got the following: - Dishoom Margarita - Baba's Sesame Espresso Martini - Dishoom House Chaat: this was an explosion of flavour! Had the sweetness of the pomegranate but also sour from the yogurt and spicy! Definitely recommend this one as a starter. 9/10 - Chicken Ruby: Dishoom's take on traditional butter chicken. Very deep flavour on this and less spicy than the other items we ordered, if you are sensitive to spice you will like this one. 8/10 - Garlic Naan: our choice of vehicle for the chicken ruby! 8/10 - Nalli Nihari Biryani: This was the star of the show and is the chef's Kensington special - only at this location! It is a lamb biryani served in a puff pastry. The waiter (kudos to Rosario) can cut it open for you and is served with sauce, onion, and yogurt on the side. Serves 2, so make sure you come hungry! 9/10 - Dishoom Chocolate Pudding: This is served with a Kashmiri chili ice cream. Super delicious and very unique. I might entertain a chili oil ice cream in the future because of this. 7/10 This was our first night in London and we were not disappointed! Worth the hype!

My husband and I visited Dishoom Kensington for breakfast a couple of weeks ago when we were…read morevisiting London for a few days. Dishoom pays homage to the food of Bombay, and I was thrilled that they serve such a large and extensive breakfast menu! The restaurant is huge and beautiful - with lots of art deco touches! The service was friendly and attentive throughout our meal. The restaurant just had great vibes - even the smell of the place (incense mixing with their delicious food) was great. I had their Kejriwal (two fried eggs on chilli cheese toast - "a modern favourite of the Willingdon Club in Tardeo, reputedly named for the member who kept asking for the dish, since he was not allowed eggs at home"), which was delicious. My husband had their bacon & egg naan roll with a side of masala beans, which he loved (he's even been trying to recreate the beans at home since we got back from London). With a large menu of other options and tons of beverage options (from alcoholic brunch options to chai to iced coffee), they have everything you could want for a great breakfast. We had a great breakfast at this Kensington location of Dishoom. I'd happily return to one of their other locations and have any meal - breakfast, lunch, or dinner!

I got a solo reservation and ordered the black daal, Ruby chicken, garlic naan, and basmati rice. That daal is probably the best I've ever had.

While waiting outside they offered everyone a glass of different drinks which I appreciated. After about 30 minutes, we were brought inside to our table. The lady for our table was generally speaking friendly - took our order and helped us with a few questions. The food was good. Tried a few different dishes and they were all flavorful, some with a bit of spice but never to the point where it compromised the flavors. Nice spot with good amount of seating. Intimate spot that's good for both groups and dates.

I rarely go back to the same place in London to eat in a month, and I was back the next day! The food tastes much better if consumed fresh on site than if it's packed for takeaway The roti chinai we tried with dhal, chicken curry and beef rendang. My vote would be for the chicken curry. The first day we got a really large roti, on the second day we got a set of 2 smaller rotis. Murtabak - we tried the chicken and lamb. Lamb wins hands down! I also had the lamb curry thali and that is a complete meal. The veggies are seasonal and oh so yum! I was delighted to see king fish (sear fish) on the menu, so I had a slice of that as well. Such a fantastic taste of home. The masala dosa was fantastic. The chilled lemon honey drink was perfect on the side. The food is typical to Tamil Malaysian cooking with its blend of South Indian and Malay flavours. There may be a bit of a wait at peak times, but nothing like the queue outside the original roti king in Euston. And the seating at Victoria market halls (where this is located) is much more open and comfortable. Heavily recommended

The curry that was in with the chicken was so good. The lamb chops were ok. Too much spice in my opinion. The lamb biryani with the chicken ruby curry sauce was a banger.

After the starters, they brought out a complimentary drink that I was highly skeptical of. It looked Bloody Mary-ish, and I hate tomato juice, but one smell, and I was in love! It was so unexpectedly amazing; it was my favorite part of the meal. It was served hot and was very cumin-heavy. It tasted like the best, most flavorful ramen broth you could imagine. I could've downed an entire bowl of that stuff! I dipped my bread (partha) into everyone's sauces, and they were all so good. We tried the regular partha and the kind with egg in the middle. The eggy one was the favorite, but both were delicious. For dessert I got a lemony cocktail - and of course, it was amazing, too. I definitely will plan to come back the next time I'm in London! Oh, but I'll bring a jacket next time! The only teeny-tiny negative is that it was so cold in there!

You have to walk down a flight of stairs to get to the dining room. We started off with the samosa tasting app, which was great. The chutneys were all great.

My mom ordered a lamb, though, that was the star of the show. Fall off the bone, delicious. That would be on my must-try list.

This was not merely the best Indian food I have had in my life, it was one of the greatest meals I…read morehave ever had the pleasure of eating. I had the Hunter's menu, which was filled with fresh game and superb in each course including the centerpiece of Guinea Fowl biryani and dal. In addition to the tasting menu, I shared other plates with family. I cannot say enough about how good every single dish was. The flavors were so rich, complex, and simply stunning. I would give this six or seven stars if I could. Eight stars. There are not enough stars. Along with the food itself, this is a restaurant that is doing every single thing right and at the highest level. The second you walk through the door, you will be greeted by a delightful bell and decor that artfully mixes the best of Britain and India in a thoroughly modern way. For drinks, they offer comprehensive and delicious options for booze, cocktails, and those who prefer non alcoholic beverages. The tasting menus on offer are not mandatory for everyone at the table, which is not typical and should be the standard everywhere. Perhaps most importantly, the service is incredible. Our waiter, Danny, was so kind. The pacing of the meal was perfect. My sister received an incredible birthday surprise and card simply because I noted it was a special occasion on Opentable. I left Kutir smiling from ear to ear. I will be back as soon as possible. Sadly, that will likely be a long time from now since I live in New York. I pray they open a branch in my city soon. Please come home to me Kutir. I love you.

A friend of the chef organized this dinner for us, and like many other fancy Indian restaurants, they do have a rather silly children policy, but thanks to our host, an exception was made for us. Kutir's experience begins with it's thoughtful setup. You are indeed welcomed in a home with pretty compact seating. Their rooftop seating is really inviting, but we could not seat there because the restaurant wasn't as busy on a Sunday evening. Aarav, our server made food recommendations which included a brilliantly tasty serving of Crab ~ Pepper Fry (£14), Lamb ~ Black Cumin (£24), Jheenga ~ Moilee (£26), and a Bread ~ Basket (£12). Our little one enjoyed the Double Tadka ~ Dal (£8) with some Steamed ~ Rice (£5). The Crab and Jheenga were absolutely spectacular. Desserts were on the okay-ish end and included Chocolate ~ Peanut (£10), and Cassata ~ Rose (£9) which had a very grainy texture. Aarav was very attentive, and friendly towards our little one. Very very good service. Noise levels were on the lower end, and it was easy to have a quiet conversation when we weren't eating all the delicious food! Highly recommend this place for an absolute unique take on Indian food!
