**June 2022: Saturday Dinner**…read more I landed in London in the afternoon and basically slept through half the day. When 9pm rolled around I figured I probably should eat something, but I wanted to try something local, so I walked about a mile away from my hotel and after a couple of no go options I landed on Zayani Indian. The restaurant had abundant traditional options, so I decided on one of my all time favorites: Chicken Tiki Marsala and Garlic Naan. The entree was exactly how I like my Marsala, creamy, somewhat sweet and savory and the chicken is soft and tender. The naan was the perfect vehicle to dip in the marsala. The marsala dish was a tad smaller than what I'm use to in the states as I usually have leftovers, but it was enough to fill my belly for a dine-in experience. Additionally the price seemed pretty reasonable for a white-table cloth dinner and they open late. I would come back!

As is the Brit way, a curry is the final port of call after a few scoops so post riverside beverages at the Ship we yomped over the bridge to Roshni's and ordered up; the prerequisite Poppadoms and relishes Gosht Hydrabadi Biryani Samundari Rhaja Jhinga accompanied by sides of Saag Paneer, Onion Bhajjis, a round of Tandoori Roti and a couple of bottles of Kingfisher The Biryani & Jhinga were exquisitely spiced, the vegetable sauce was light and fruity and the Bhajjis cooked to perfection, not the usual soggy mess you find elsewhere. The only slight disappointment was the Roti which was not as soft and doughy as it should be. If you are an aficionado of things spicy then try their phenomenal Phaal. If it is too hot for you then you are just 20 yards from the river ..... Cost per head on this visit was £25. VFM for such a posh spot even if we are talking Staines!

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.

My family and I were traveling to England from the USA. We had been looking for an Indian…read morerestaurant because it's one of my and my husband's favorite types of cuisines. We were staying in the West Drayton area before our flight home the next morning and still hadn't had any Indian food. We came across Simpson Tandoori and decided to give it a try. We are so thankful that we did because it was a wonderful meal to end our UK adventure! The restaurant is very clean and classy looking. The staff was unbelievably polite, kind and helpful (our sons hadn't eaten Indian food before so our waiter gave some helpful suggestions and modifications to their meal to make it more suitable for a younger child's palette). Also, the staff was helpful with my food allergies (gluten and mushrooms) so I could have a safe and enjoyable meal. We started with some papadums with various dipping sauces. I am not sure what all the sauces were--but one was like a sweet and sour, one was a pineapple or mango, one was spicier with pickled veggies (my personal favorite), one bowl was some chopped veggies and then a yellow sauce that I'm not sure how to describe it other than a flavorful mild sauce. Then, we each ordered a dish without realizing just how much food it would end up being; but it worked out very well because we got to share with each other and taste a bit of everything. The adults ordered: vindaloo chicken, tikka masala, chili tikka masala, garlic rice, pilau rice and the children ordered lamb chops and tandoori chicken (on the starter menu) and some chips. The food came out hot and exactly as we ordered. Everything smelled so good that I only took an overview photo of our table because I was too excited to eat it! I cannot say enough about the quality of food and service we received from this business. But I wish it wasn't an ocean away from us or else it would be a place we would frequently visit. I wish this business all the best and highly recommend it!

GREAT Indian Restaurant at the Raddison Blu Edwardian at the Heathrow airport! Chances are, if you…read moreare at an airport hotel in London, you are probably wishing you could experience this town's incredible Indian food one more time before you leave. Most people search the Yelp reviews and walk to the best, close restaurant you can find. I recently stayed overnight at the Raddison by Heathrow. My wife and I were craving Indian badly. We were about to walk a mile to get to a restaurant I found on Yelp, when we noticed this new Indian place IN the hotel! The place was very modern and swanky. You can make a reservation right on the web site, or at the hotel. We showed up at 7:30 and didn't need a reservation. We were hoping for chicken tikka masala and palek paneer, but no such luck. So we set out to try some new stuff. After talking to the waiter, who was very cool and extremely helpful, we decided on some things he suggested that were VERY similar to what we were looking for. So, we decided on Lamb Rogan Josh(£12), Butter Chicken Masala (£11), Paneer Lababdar (£9) Plain naan (£2.50), and Steamed Basamati rice (2 orders £3 each). I had a bottle of Pale Ale, not sure what kind. My wife had a glass of Pino Grigio. Everything was incredible. The butter chicken masala was very similar, except maybe not as 'tomatoey' as traditional tikka masala. The lamb rogan josh was bursting with deep flavors and the lamb was a good cut of meat that was very tender. The paneer lababdar was a vegetarian dish with big chunks of paneer cheese and a really rich sauce. We ate until we were full and ate some more. Took a break and ate some more! Spent $114, but it was wort it. SOOO good. Can't wait to be back.

There was a two+ hours gap between the wedding ceremony and the reception and we decide to give Annayu a try. That was the best decision we had made.

We had the Butter Chicken Masala, Chicken Poussin, Lamb Boti Kebab and Garlic Naan. The authentic tastes in these dishes just blew us away. Each dish was very delicious and perfectly prepared. The Chicken Poussin Tandoori was soft and spicy and just melted the tastes in my mouth. The Butter Chicken Masala had the perfect amount of creamy sauce preserving the tastes of Indian spices making it a perfect match for the Garlic Naan. We enjoyed this restaurant so much that we ate there twice in the same evening. Terrific experience!

The King Prawn vindaloo was very good and we also had the Tandoori Lamb which had a sweet sauce. The onion Bhajis were very good and our £9 bottle of Chianti did not disappoint.
