Wandered in on a whim because it was really close to my hotel and I ended up dining here 3 times during my work trip. The Bombay butter chicken was absolute perfection. I returned the next night with a colleague to try the Paneer Butter Masala and Murg Chicken Masala. A few days later I was back for the third time with two more colleagues where we each ordered Butter Chicken as well as the Murg Chicken Masala and Lamb Rogan Josh. I genuinely don't enjoy lamb but tried a small bite which was super tender and full of flavor. We also had Pappadum which were crispy and perfectly seasoned and came with some delicious condiments that also paired nicely with the samosas. Overall excellent and I will be back when I visit London again. read more

Mumbai Delight - Bombay Butter Chicken, rice, plain naan - Indian Near Me - London, XGL

If you're looking for great Indian food in London, I highly recommend Mumbai Delight! My husband and I came here for dinner because it was within walking distance of our Airbnb, and we were so glad we did. Small tables but good ambiance. We started with the Tiltala Jhinga, which was absolutely incredible, followed by the Onion Bhaji, which was delicious--especially with the mango chutney. For my main course, I ordered the Murg Tikka Masala, and it was outstanding. It was rich, creamy, full of flavor, and not spicy at all, which was exactly what I was hoping for. Just keep in mind that rice and naan are ordered separately, but the garlic naan was hands down the best I've ever had--soft, buttery, and packed with garlic. My husband ordered the Lamb Angara, and while he really enjoyed it, I have to admit I thought my Tikka Masala was even better. If you're in the mood for something lighter, I also recommend the avocado salad. The simple olive oil and lemon (or vinegar) dressing was fresh and refreshing, making it a great addition to the meal. The service was excellent as well. The staff was attentive, friendly, and provided great customer service throughout our visit. We were also able to walk in without a reservation and were seated immediately. Overall, we had a fantastic dining experience and would definitely return. Highly recommended! read more

The star of my meal was the Chat Bomb (pani puri) appetizer. Though I throughly enjoyed each dish I tried. The other dishes were very good as well, though not quite to the top tier in differentiation in flavor. Might have been the dishes I ordered, however I expected a larger variation in taste between them. Still, was excellent and wouldn't hesitate to eat here again, with two orders of chat bombs read more

Wow! One of the better Indian meals I've had anywhere. It's no wonder that it's in London, one of the better spots worldwide. Nice ambiance and attentive service on a rainy night where I was the only patron. Lots of takeout happening though. This might not be the fanciest Indian food place I've been to in London but it's right up there at the top for quality. The Lamb Rogan Josh was delicious and spicy. Just unbelievable depth of flavor. The Chana Masala was outstanding. Do yourself a favor and order any of the lamb dishes here, you won't be disappointed. Highly recommend this for those looking for good Indian food! read more

Mumbai Delight - Chana Masala - Indian Near Me - London, XGL

This is my favorite Indian restaurant in London. On my 3rd visit in as many years, I found the food was delicious, service attentive and it is a nice, quiet place for dinner. For our anniversary dinner we enjoyed papadum, onion bhaji, and calamari. Everything just right and spicy. For the main course we had rogan josh, dal makhini and sag aloo. It was a perfect meal, topped off by a complimentary gooey brownie with a candle on top. Mumbai Delights is such a reliable and delicious experience every time. read more

Mumbai Delight is in a word a delight. Small place, but easily took care of myself and my family. Tasty drinks, great food, would highly recommend to anyone in the Vauxhall area looking for Indian. read more

Great service and delicious food. We arrived early on a Friday at 5:30 and it was empty, but it filled up by the time we left. So much flavor in every dish. I'll definitely be back. read more

I didn't think I liked Indian food before eating here! I came with a group, and we were treated very well by the restaurant staff. The food was amazing! The butter chicken, garlic Nan, Italian red wine, etc., was all delicious. read more

Food was incredible! A hidden gem that it seeks only the locals know about. Highly recommend checking it out.

Quiet exterior, but beautiful interior with a great ambience and very authentic to Indian culture. Don't be fooled by the small, sleepy atmosphere, as this restaurant is a gem, and a great find. My partner and I are visiting London for our anniversary, and fancied Indian cuisine. Searching 'Indian food' into open table is a risk, as some restaurants don't pan out to be what you expect. However this restaurant exceeded my expectations. Incredibly friendly service, fantastic quality food, and again, a wonderful atmosphere. I highly recommend this if you're looking for an 'out of the way' more quiet and homely atmosphere. read more

Incredible Indian food in Chelsea on the Thames. Lamb Rogan Josh; Lamb Mughals; Mutter Mushrooms; Tandoori Gobi; Avocado Chat; Sticky Tamarind Wings. All fantastic. Service was outstanding. Owner recommendations were perfect. Ambiance was simple and charming. I love the Indian music playing softly in the background, so that people can converse. read more

A little hidden, but well worth the effort! I came in alone and was warmly greeted. This quaint restaurant has a lovely comfortable feeling for large or small groups. I asked the staff to select a dish for me and he did not disappoint! I forgot the name of the dishes, but lentils in a cream sauce, yellow rice, vegetables in a cream sauce, and garlic naan. All were a flavorful experience! I would definitely return read more

Definitely a hidden gem. Very unassuming exterior but wonderful ambience inside. Delicious food, excellent service and great price for the quality of food. Definitely would come back. read more

This place is unassuming from the outside and is an adorable small restaurant on the inside. We are a little less adventurous than most with our food choices, and we really wanted to try Indian food in the UK play(we are from USA). We had two appetizers, two entrées and a delicious naan with coconut and raisin spices. It was absolutely fantastic! Would highly recommend for dinner!! read more

Absolutely delicious! We shared several dishes, pappadums, naan. Excellent service as well. Hidden gem!

Absolutely perfect meal. Great food and wonderful service in a cozy little space. Our waiter suggested the perfect amount of food for our group of 6 very hungry Americans. They were also able to whip up some great dishes for our vegan friend. All in all, it was a really wonderful meal that, drinks included, amounted to about £25 a person. Hard to beat that. Don't miss it if you're in the area. read more

Ajay my friend!!! I cannot believe after being here nearly 10 days here in London we are just getting to try your restaurant! The food and service and the overall look and feel of your restaurant is AMAZING!!! I've never had Indian food with more flavor. My tastebuds will FOREVER remember Mumbai Delight and a DELIGHT it was!! You were SO kind and attentive and it was your day off and you only had ONE waitstaff and yet you guys MASTERED customer service and EXCELLENCE!! Thank you SO much for welcoming us into your establishment and treating us like old friends. I'll definitely recommend your business to others and return next time we are here in London! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!! My belly is FOREVER GRATEFUL!!! Thank you Ajay!!!!!! Always, Akira read more

Good food, but overpriced. I spent twice as much on an appetizer here than I've ever spent on an entree at an Indian restaurant in the states. The lamb meat is prepared perfectly. The garlic naan was also beautiful and delicious. read more

This is a solid 4-star Indian joint. Don't bother with a reservation - you'll get in. Benefitting from the relative anonymity of just about every restaurant in Vauxhall, it's empty on every night except for Friday (until, of course, those 11 towering elevator shafts under construction become real flats over next 18 months...). The guys who run it are friendly and easy, and remember their regulars - a big plus. The decor is simple, the seats are comfy, they won't ever rush you, and the prices are really decent for what you get. The food itself is really nice. Sauces thick, meat dishes chunky, nan plentiful, and sauces sour and spicy. As an indian restaurant, I would list this as "solid": it won't be the best indian food you've ever had, though the ease combined with general quality (versus East London, for example...) will leave you with a very high opinion of Mumbai Delight upon departure. They're equally good for takeaway or delivery, and are always as fast as they say they will be. Highly worth a visit, and if you live in Vauxhall, you should probably be a regular. read more

Exquisite and tasty-- a true neighborhood gem. The veggie dishes were spiced just right with robust flavor! I'd rate 4.5 stars!

Found this place while in London on vacation. Service was a bit off but perhaps this was a one-off. By example, I arrived before my companion and rather than offer me any food or drink, server just ignored me until I waved her down. She readily took my order but I still waited quite a while before anything arrived. When my friend showed up, we ordered food while did arrive speedily and was very, very good. No complaints about the meals but service needs some attending to. read more

Very good food but horribly atrocious service. Inexcusable. Staff seems to focus on large parties to a fault. I strongly recommend that you avoid this restaurant if it is busy. read more

Absolutely incredible IndIan food. We had somosas, fish curry, lamb Ankara, pulao rice, and naan. This is some of the best I have tasted. Reasonably priced individual plates (similar to ordering Chinese food). Cute neighborhood place with a cool vibe. read more

First time in this area came to American Embassy afterwards in the evening decided to go Mumbai Delight not disappointed at all very nice, tasty food and good servic. read more

The food was incredible. We had the mumbai delight biryani and the lamb angara. Ive never had smoked lamb before but it was as tender as you'd expect. We also had the king prawn appetizer and it was really flavorful. Our boys loved the poppadoms. We got there before the dinner rush and the staff was so friendly and accomodating to us with our twin toddlers. Yelp doesnt disappoint, they are very kid friendly and had a baby changer in the bathroom. read more

Outstanding food in a cozy setting. Staff were friendly and attentive with excellent recommendations. I can't wait to visit again.

Great place to eat. Good ambience. Polite reception and most importantly clean amazing and delicious food. Would've liked more quantity for the price but then again - very very good food! read more

Great Indian food, had lamb Bhuna Gosh ( lamb in onion, tomato, garlic, ginger and other spices ) outstanding flavor with just the right amount of heat. Wife had Chicken Tikka Masala which was very good. Service was good and the chef came to our table to see how we liked our meal. Highly recommended. read more

Small, intimate restaurant with a very friendly maitre de. Exceptional food and service.

First of all let me say the service and setting is top class. Kind and efficent waiters and friendly manager to compliment. Next we have the food. Its just brilliant, not like your common/typical indian restaurant where all food taste the same. Colours are expressive and food tastes magnificent. Lovely presentation and a proper taste into traditional mumbai food. 10/10 have already gone twice. read more

Great restaurant! The staff were really friendly and even offered to give us directions when we were unsure of our next step in the evening!

Incredible food. We wanted chicken tikka masala while we were in London and Mumbai Delight did not disappoint. Samosas, naan and kulfi were also incredible. This place is off the beaten path a bit - across the river and a bit of a walk from most London attractions, but it was such a good find. Would definitely eat here again and again read more

Had a lovely meal here. As other reviews have indicated, the staff were great, and the food was delicious. In particular, the king prawn peri peri was to die for! The prawns were cooked in an almost sweet and soury - yet firey - sauce that I had not encountered before. The Biryani rice pot with lamb was also very nice. Personally I felt the prices were reasonable for the quality, with a meal for three coming in at about £65 pounds. read more

Divine! Food is flavorful but not heavy, service is friendly, nice but quiet music. We were there in a hurry with 2 starving kids and this place hit the spot. read more

Great food, tried several other ethnic foods while in town on vacation and this was one of.. If not my favorite. Delicious, quality food and spicy just how I like it. read more

Went with Yelp recommendations and it again was spot on. All four of us enjoyed our meals and service was great! This was our one night dining out in London and we were not disappointed. Great food! read more

Fabulous food. Took our son, who had never tried Indian food and he loved it. All 3 of our dishes were delicious. Personal service was lovely, even down to attempting a Manhattan for me! . If we lived here we would be back often read more

Really good Indian food in a comfortable, welcoming environment. Everything we had was delicious, especially the Lamb Rogan Josh. Service was friendly and prices reasonable as well. Definitely worth a visit. read more
