    "Like my food...or else...."
    Kelly C.

    Food was good, but to be honest tasted just like some Indian restaurants back in Virginia. We started with the butter chicken. Not very saucy, and a little bland for my tastes...was picking out gristle and bone out of every bite, but I ate it and found it's flavor to be brought out more with some of the side sauces they brought out (one tasted like a BBQ?) I also had the curry lamb--very good! Lamb just fell apart it was so tender. The naan was probably the best part of the whole experience. Warm, very fresh, the best naan I've ever had. Something I found a little disturbing with the ambiance were the posters of Ms. Anand EVERYWHERE advertising her book. Her books were everywhere and posters and all kinds of stuff so I found myself staring at her the entire evening. Kind of ruined the ambiance, but kudos to good advertising, while sitting there we saw her sell and sign at least 2 books. *see pic of creepy stare* kind of like she's saying with her eyes "like my food........"

    Yes, it hit the spot! Great Indian food. Highlights: Food was delicious, cooked to perfection and ample quantity, Location was easy to find, Staff was friendly with good decor and set up. Can improve: Parking is a pain so be prepared to walk a little. Benchmark: For me the best Indian restaurants are Delhi Spice, Namaste Lounge and Everest Lounge. Dined in June 2015 and will return if in the area.

    Fantastic Indian Food!…read more Wow, I was stuck in a terrible layover and I felt disappointed, nothing to do, and nothing to eat. Then I took a look at Yelp and found Takaa Tak! Wow! Excellent service, I was immediately sat in their last available table, the restaurant was lively. Every table had what looked like a happy group enjoying tasty food. While the restaurant was full, I was able to enjoy myself, it was NOT too loud and service was fast. I had food in my belly and I was out of the place within 30 minutes! They did not rush me, I rushed myself. I certainly want to be back, possibly booking myself another overnight layover just to enjoy a meal there!

    BEST INDIAN FOOD EVER!!!…read more Just went here for lunch with my husband. We're staying at the Marriott just down the street. We were recommended a different Indian restaurant within walking distance from our hotel, however upon arrival we found it was closed until 5pm (as many Indian restaurants do). So we did a quick search of nearby Indian restaurants (because now I had my heart set on it) and found that there are TONS to choose from. We chose this one because it had indoor seating. We were the second customers in the dining room. It's clean and nicely decorated. We ordered the garlic naan, some samosas, I ordered the Korma chicken and my husband ordered the Tikka chicken. We ordered a bowl of basmati rice on the side. It doesn't come with rice, but the bowl is very big, more than enough for 2 people, and only £3.50. Everything was so delicious! I feel like that was the best samosa I've ever had! My korma chicken was so delicious! I was almost able to eat all of it. That's probably the most I've been able to eat in an Indian restaurant! I dipped my naan in the curry sauce. It was sweet and creamy. Absolutely perfect in every way! I'm coming back to London in a year and I'm definitely coming back to this restaurant again.

    Quality/Quantity - What a great find, and this review shows…read morethe positive power of Yelp. We discovered this local restaurant through Yelp, and so did the other 2 tables next to us. We found out at the end of our meal that one of the other tables was also from our hotel, a mile walk away. Overall, I think a simple menu done well. We got everything they recommended including the recommended beer from the table next to us. Plain Papadum & Chutney Tray - A must try! Suggestion, these two items should be together on your menu to avoid any confusion on pricing. The sauces also went well with our entree and naan. Tandoori Mix Grill - Good, perfect amount for both of us. As mentioned previously, we are light eaters, especially when traveling. This entree also came with a very light simple salad. Garlic Naan - I can eat this all day! This could even be my meal. After Dinner Chocolates - A nice unexpected touch. Atmosphere - Small local restaurant. Bathrooms need some TLC, but are functional. Indoor/outdoor dining; everyone ate indoors today. Open 7 days a week. Service - Good, had all 3 wait staff help us. This kind of confused us. They were good at upselling, but all 3 team members tried to upsell us. Not in a bad way, but it kept me laughing. I am a light eater, especially when traveling. They all made light small talk which was nice. It was obvious that everyone eating here was NOT local. They also have online promotions, see their website. Price - 28 pounds + tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success, I am so glad that you can benefit from Yelp. See you on our next visit as we were so happy with our hotel we plan to stay there again.
