I couldn't find a page for the Shoreditch location, but this was easily one of my favorite meals from my trip to London. We started with the coconut and ginger lassi - which we ended up ordering twice because it was that good. My favorite dish was the duck seekh kebab, but the samphire pakoras were insanely flavorful. The Mangalorean chicken gassi was also incredible rich and comforting. The rice papads and green chutney were a great start to the meal. The Shoreditch location itself was beautiful. We were lucky enough to be staying at a hotel within walking distance, and since we didn't have much time to research or reserve a restaurant, we just hoped a walk-in would work out. Thankfully, it did. We were seated right away and the service was attentive from the start, even with just the two of us. read more

After trying Dishoom (Covent Garden) and Gymkhana on our first London visit in 2023, my husband and I wanted to add at least one more Indian spot to our have-tried list and we greatly enjoyed Kricket. Sitting at the bar seeing the food getting prepped added to the experience. All the dishes were nicely balanced and good size for sharing. Loved the Kerala fried chicken and Rechado butter prawns especially. The Bhel Puri was also a great start! For a main curry we shared the mangalorean chicken gassi. Great spot! read more

We were Indian food novices but had the best meal and best time thanks to Jennifer, who is a gem who adeptly runs the front end with skill, knowledge, passion and a friendly nature. We were pre theatre and they made sure the timing was perfect. We loved everything Jennifer suggested ! Food was outstanding, same with service, and the vibe is busy and fun. Make reservations - though they seem to accommodate walk-ins as best they can. Just not guaranteed. We sat in a booth in the bar area and that was great. 500 ft walk to theatre door. Highly recommend this restaurant. read more

This is a great dining option if you are craving Indian food in the Picadilly circus/soho. We didn't have reservation and walked in on a Friday night and were seated right away. Their basement has this option of large table with many chairs that you share with other guests but surprisingly it still maintained a pretty decent privacy. Their dishes are outstanding, our favorite was the Kerala fried chicken and mangalorean chicken. read more

Unfortunately there isn't a Yelp page for their Shoreditch location (the one I went to), but I would be remiss not to leave a review. I went in March and I still dream of the Keralan fried chicken and that sauce under the chili broccoli. They also had mango lime ice kulfi with crispy coconut, which was magnificent. We also couldn't get enough of their lime sodas too. Our waitress was beyond accommodating and so friendly. And the interior was gorgeous! One of the best meals I ate in London. read more

this place is a BANGER and everything is really really good, one of THE places to go to in london. they do upscale / contemporary south asian food (which, against the backdrop of dishoom was quite lovely). I went with a friend and we split quite a few things (wasn't able to try the cocktails but honestly they all looked banging). I will say, be prepared for the fried foods as the appetizers (we misordered), which resulted in us feeling quite full, but everything here is SUPER flavorful, delicious, all around banger read more

Came here for a quick bite, and it was incredible. The cocktails are creative and very easy to drink. The small plates are packed full of flavor and perfect for sharing. We got the pistachio and date kulcha (creative textures, amazing harmony of flavors, chewy bread), bhel puri (refreshing and crunchy), and a prawn curry (the prawns had a lovely smoky flavor, and the curry was vinegary in a good way). The service is friendly and helpful as well. read more

Kricket Soho - Prawn curry - Indian Near Me - London, XGL

Kricket came very highly recommended to me and I was stoked I could get a single seat at the bar before my play. Unfortunately, I found it to really be just okay. I got the Keralan Fried Chicken on their recommendation and really didn't like it (and I love a fried chicken). I ended up gifting it to the strangers sitting next to me left, under the guise that I was going to the theater and couldn't bring it with me. The grilled day boat squid and the wild garlic kulcha had overpowering flavors.. which I didn't love. And trust me, I am someone who loves all the flavors and eats all the things. Something was just off here.. and I really wanted to like it. Definitely not bad, but really just okay. read more

Absolutely amazing! Our waitress made wonderful recommendations and everyone was so nice! The food was incredible!! We will be sending our friends who are traveling to London here!

So much fun! read more

Very good, creative food and good service. But the venue is very crowded and noisy; it was packed even on a Monday night!

Very tasty experience in a cosy setting. Every dish was a treat for your taste buds (the fried chicken definitely being a highlight - try dunking it in the vegetarian take on 'butter chicken'). Only caveat is you'll be kicked out at 11pm (like at many places in London), even with a late reservation (ours was at 9:30pm). Experience would've even been better if we weren't seated at a long 'picknick' table right alongside (and in the social bubbles of) other guests. read more

So many people told me to go here and I wondered how could it could actually be so I went on my trip to London. Everyone was correct. The food here was phenomenal. I actually recommend sitting at the top floor high chairs because you can see them making your food and it is very entertaining. Everyone here was extremely kind and they were very attentive to us. The menu has option for vegetarians and everything is rich in flavor. Their chai is very good and they have good beer options as well. Our absolute favorite thing we got was the fish curry. This was my favorite meal we had on our visit to London thanks Kricket!! read more

Excellent ambience and food, slightly unexpected bill. Clearly this is a place of distinction but keep in mind that your bill will have an additional 35% added to it after they add in a 15% discretionary charge and a 20% extra charge. The vibe of this place is great. Subtle interior design, wonderful lighting, and great music. Kricket definitely makes a good impression.! Food is mostly good. Fried chicken dish was cooked perfectly and a bit of interesting spice to it. Brown buttered naan was quite lovely. The daal dish was a bit strange and almost tasted gamey so we didn't have much of that. Cocktails were pleasant and subtle - just what was needed at about 4pm. The ridiculous charges at the end of the meal were eye popping. I've never seen an upcharge on the meal in my entire life, and that includes many, many fine dining institutions and places of distinction. It wasn't good enough to warrant that. read more

Our favorite place we dined in! They were able to accommodate 16 of us and our waiter was insanely kind/patient with our large group. He took the time to help us make the right decision with food recs and took our different dietary restrictions into consideration. There are also foods on the menu that are halal friendly. We decided to go with "A Taste Of Kricket" to make it easy for a family style brunch. Our standout foods were: pistachio kulcha, grilled butternut squash, goan sausage croquette, and dark chocolate dessert. I would come back just for the kulcha and squash! The cocktails were also very delicious. I ordered an espresso martini which was perfectly balanced with coffee and liquor. The North Of The River cocktail was my favorite on the menu. read more

We had a great meal here! Awesome, friendly service, with very solid food. Would recommend overall! read more

Came here last night. I don't understand why this restaurant is so highly rated. The food is awful and the place is noisy, basic and chaotic. We received at least three things we didn't order and we were missing a couple of dishes that we did. I felt we were encouraged to over-order, so I did try quite a few things on their very limited menu.staff were nice but clearly harassed by the sheer number of customers and extreme tightness of space at the communal banquettes downstairs. Snacks: Mirchi vada - the best thing on the menu. Light and spicy. Gave me misplaced hope Butter chicken kofta - also good, the snacks were the only good things on the menu. Small plates Samphire pakoras- tasteless. Avoid Chana masala- chick peas with hummus. Really weird. Did not work Lamb ribs - basically lamb fat, disgusting Larger Mutton curry- ok but very ordinary and bland Smoked pork belly - inedible as way too salty Dahl- utterly tasteless Sides Naan - ok but they initially have us some bread with green sludge all over it. Don't know what is was but it was soggy and horrible Meera pulao - ok Broccoli - possibly the worst thing we ate, but it's hard to choose. It was absolutely drowned in a 'walnut chutney' which was like an overpowering blue cheese sauce. Completely inedible Desserts Bhappa doi- a mishmash of all kinds of things which did not go together and tasted revolting Mango and lime kulfi- not frozen. Much too sweet. Obviously I am not returning. Definitely does not merit the high prices. read more

First time at Kricket and I can definitely see why it got a Michelin Bib Gourmet, this place is amazing! Made a reservation far in advance, but I don't think that's 100% necessary as there seemed to still be a ton of seats for walk ins. Was seated quickly in a communal table downstairs. - Brown Butter Lachha Paratha - This is essentially just naan with a tiny bit of brown sugar flavor. To be honest, there's really no need to order the fancy "bread" because the entrees are definitely the star, this is more of a side. I did appreciate the slight char on it though. - Malai Tandoori Paneer - From now on, I will exclusively only eat paneer with honey, what an unexpected but beautiful combination! I really appreciate the char of the paneer with the sweet and salty honey which flavored the entire block of cheese. Also the baby onions weren't overpowering and was actually quite tender. - Keralan Fried Chicken - This was my favorite dish of the night. The breading of the chicken was spectacular as it wasn't super heavy or dense with slight saltiness flavor. Also I thought it went extremely well with the pickled daikon. I loved the curry mayonnaise they made in house which was quite light and balanced out the crunchiness of the chicken. Definitely a must get dish at Kricket. - Pandhi Pork Neck Curry - This is more of your traditional curry. Honestly not anything mind-blowing but it was pretty good especially to counterbalance the other dryer dishes. Overall, very solid restaurant in London that I would most definitely visit again. I was a bit worried that we didn't order enough for 2 people, but this was most definitely enough and it left us stuffed. read more

We were not sophisticated on Indian food but got some help. I would say of what we ordered the sweet potato dish and the chicken dish were our faves.

Great Indian food right near Piccadilly Station. Ordered family style for our table of 5 and loved everything. Great flavor, presentation, and service. It was packed on a Thursday night - highly recommend getting a reservation read more

Snagged a last minute 8:30 table and was welcomed with great customer service. Water was constantly coming. Servers were beyond knowledgeable and helpful. Perfect balance of attentive without feeling like they're kicking you out. Started with Bhel Puri, an interesting rice dish. The fried chicken was super bland which is why I couldn't give a 5* rating. Tenderstem Broccoli was a great surprise with an awesome sauce. Great texture since everything else was heavy. The grilled lamb was a bit tough, but the sauce was a yummy balsamic which was perfect for the roti. On the flip side, the fish curry was cooked to perfection. Skip the dal. Very boring. We didn't even make it through half. read more

So delicious and my husband is gluten free. When we first sat down, the helpful staff asked if there weee any food allergies, and she was completely helpful for him...ensuring he had an amazing meal while still staying well.

Recommendations: + Make a reservation it is well worth it. + Ask the server which food is good. + Order a Spiced Masala Chai with Rum (Y-U-M) Honestly every food item we got was superb. Not one plate was bad. The blast of flavor in each dish was so tasty. We ordered about 6 food items for 3 people, the dishes are not large they are small so you should order more than one plate per person. Yes it is pricy, but this trendy food is well worth the price. 5/5 No doubt. read more

We decided to stop in for lunch in the middle of our work week and we were thrilled with the experience. The ambiance is hip and trendy and the service was great. We ordered the black daal, garlic naan, lamb with pomegranate, curried swordfish, brussels sprouts and rice. All of the plates are intended to share so it's great spot to enjoy as a group. The flavors were excellent - we look forward to returning in the future! read more

Fabulous food! Best meal in London. Loved trying so many different things. Highly recommend!

Beautiful ambience and atmosphere. Great for friends and a day out with girl or friends. Noisy and busy. Now the food. For Soho the price is reasonable.however I woould not come here for the food. I am only talking vege food as thats all we had. The Tadka Daal is sub par ( eating while.commemting). It needed what Indians call Tadka. It tasted like boil.daal with spices thrown in. I did not like it and wish chef had made better effort. I gave it 2/10. Edible but not something I'll recommend. The butternut Makhani squash was good. The butternut squash was I think grilled in the tandoor and then Makhani sauce was added. It was good however the Makhani sauce complemented it rather than be part of it. It was good and I old have it just because it is a healthier meal. Nothing to scream about. I gave it a 6/10 The garlic coriander Naan is good. YOU must order a Naan or rice or you would get just the sauces for dinner. It is not part of meal. I know for sure that Indian meals have to be had with either Naan read or rice and it boggles my mind when it is not part of a meal. Wish they would just charge a bit more for it and include in meal. However it is what it is. I watched some Caucasians and Black's having the meals without Naan or rice eating them as if they were a dish to be eaten on their own. The wait staff do recommend that you order rice or Naan but!!!! Don't think it's a place I'll.come back to. Good luck read more

Kricket Soho - Looks good....taste 6/10 - Indian Near Me - London, XGL

A delightful and amazing meal! We were fortunate to have theatre seating at the bar to watch all the magic happen! Chef Will Bowlby of Kricket Soho, offers a creative menu that features exceptional Indian flavors. And just as impressive as the food, the kitchen, bar and hospitality staff are a well oiled machine working together in harmony while keeping one of the cleanest and organized work spaces I have ever seen. We loved everything we ordered. Each of the small plates had a distinctly different flavor profile and we loved ALL of it! It was great talking to the chef and sous chefs during our meal, but watching Executive chef Will put his own final touch on absolutely every dish before it was delivered shows his passion and pride in his wonderful food! Everything is good, but don't miss the fried chicken, hake curry and the yogurt dessert. Bravo!! read more

Just two American Texans who popped in for a drink and snack on the recommendation from a gentleman from a pub. Hands down some of the best food either of us has ever put into our mouths. We bought the cookbook and are tempted to visit again within our two day trip to try more picky bites! The butternut squash will not disappoint and neither will the beef kabob. Again, best food we have had in the time we can remember! read more

Yet another fusion Indian restaurant with non-Indian owners. Seems to be a trend these days around the World. Nevertheless, no complaints about the food here. You enter this small cozy joint and you will be greeted with an aroma of Indian spices and dishes. All dishes are made to order, so you can actually feel the freshness in smell and taste. Of course the dishes are toned down to cater to the spice levels of tourists and Londonites, still they are pretty tasty. We tried the bhej puri, Kerala spiced fried chicken, dal and masala kulcha bread. Each item had good depth of flavor. Kudos to the team! The drinks were a little underwhelming, hence the drop in a star on the review. read more

This is an Indian fusion restaurant owned by a couple of brits. The chef is an Indian who used to work at a famous hotel in Bombay. It is certainly not your usual Indian fair so if you feel adventurous, this may be a place for you. The ambiance is quite hip and modern, an upbeat vibe if you will. The food contains items not usually part of Indian cuisine such as beef and pork, nonetheless they are cooked with clear Indian influences. Even though this is an Indian fusion restaurant, the food was not lacking In spice or quantity. The portions were decent. The dal was tasty, and the beef kebab was also quite delicious. I would have loved to see more sauce, however. The menu could also use some enhancements and additions. All in all, I enjoyed my dinner! read more
