AMAZING! Came here…read morewith my boyfriend's parents when they were in London visiting, the only thing that is disappointing about this place is it's far away from where I live and where my boyfriend lives (we went as it was near the hotel his parents stayed in). When we got there for 7pm we were given a complementary sherry (always a good way to win me over free alcohol), we shared starters - the onion bhaji's were incredible - and then my boyfriends parents had a selection of smaller dishes. I am vegetarian and I had the Paneer Tikka Karai, so delicious it wasn't greasy and I loved the selection of vegetarian dishes they had and how easily identifiable they were on the menu. Even though some the desserts weren't available the staff were helpful and everything they recommended was delicious, it was also my first experience of having Irish coffee (not really being a coffee fan) it was amazing. The staff were lovely, really happy to answer any queries about the food we had and recommending dishes and wine, despite spending over 2 hours there, we never once felt rushed or that we were holding up people waiting for tables. At the end of the meal the manager came over and was chatting to us (we were trying to convince him to expand to north London or at least Wandsworth) he was very happy to accept our compliments and offered us a further drink on the house before we left. I honestly could not recommend this place enough, great staff, amazing food, despite it being across London from me over 10 miles away I will DEFINITELY be going back.

Very small portions. Sauce with good flavor but very little food. 4 shrimp to tandoori prawn dish…read more 7 calamari rings to calamari squid dish. Shrimp were good but the calamari bland and not fresh thick batter. Location good street parking Mediocre service and requesting service charge tip. Upside not very expensive but expect to have to order many dishes for a meal.

The Gaylord - Had a delivery order to the Aloft Excel Hotel.  Cheap and pretty decent.

Coming from the states, I wanted to try a hole in the wall Indian spot. It was average. The…read moreChicken Tikka Masala was decent and so was the Chicken Biriyani. The rest was forgettable. A huge plus is that they are open late and they deliver. I had the order delivered to my hotel at the Aloft Excel within 40 mins. Don't hesitate to order since there isn't that much in the area.

After a year of living in the Isle of Dogs area, I finally stepped foot into The Gaylord Indian…read moreRestaurant, which is about a 5 minute walk from my flat. The gaudy orange sign, and the tinted windows with old men just hanging around the entrance made the restaurant seem less than inviting. I never notice any diners in there, maybe thats just the tinted windows. But a friend was visiting from out of town, and amused by the name - decided we should give it a try. And holy crap.. was I missing out! The restaurant itself is dimly lit and quite dark, so I'm not sure why the windows are tinted as well. The waiters were quite friendly and served us papadoms with assorted chutneys to start. For a small restaurant, they have an extensive menu along with exclusive items, but we didn't know what to order since everything was pretty much chicken / lamb / seafood mixed with "exotic spices, tomato, onion, and peppers"... but I think this is common for a lot of Indian restaurants. Anyhow, we ordered the Rogan E-Murgh (chicken in medium spice sauce), Tandoori E-Bahar (chicken in special cream sauce) and the lamb xacuti (lamb with fennel seeds, garlic ginger, and other spices) - all ranging between £7-£8. The descriptions are pretty weak, but honestly - I think you can just pick any dish, it'll be great! The food took about 30-35 minutes, a bit too long, considering we were the only diners and it was 9:30pm - but it was definitely worth the wait! The Rogan Murgh was really nice and flavorful saucy dish, the chunks of chicken breast were really tender, my only complaint was that it wasn't spicy at all. The Xacuti was a really nice lamb dish, more on the dry side (ie: no sauce), and the meat was extremely tender. Served underneath the meat was grilled green pepper. The sauce was nicely done, but also had a sour kick to it - I wouldn't have guessed it would be sour at all, but I really enjoyed it. The clear winner was the Tandoori E-Bahar dish: shredded chicken in a sweet curry sauce with raisins, tomato, (potato?), and topped with shredded almonds. In the end, the bill came out to £11 per person (we each had a curry dish, naan and papadom). Definitely a decent price for some excellent Indian food! Not sure what I'm gonna order next time.. the menu descriptions certainly don't do the food any justice, so I think I'm gonna have to randomly choose some other dishes to try. Other things to note about the restaurant: - all the ladies get roses at the end of the meal. A bit cheesy, but still nice :) - for any takeaway or delivery order over £25, they will throw in a bottle of house red or white wine, along with a rose - their menu states that they have been featured and recommended in several publications - all meat is Halal - portion sizes are very generous for the price! - flame-heated metal trays were used for our curries, so they stayed hot the entire time - there's an automatic 12.5% gratuity
