As an American who really enjoys Indian food and has been spoiled from living in the San Francisco Bay Area, this place lived up to my standards and more. The service was more than excellent - when it turned out that the garlic naan was baked more than it should have been, I was brought a new piece of naan right away. I ordered: * Dall * Rogan josh * Poppadam * Garlic naan All of the items were mouth watering. As the night was cold, this meal warmed me up and I couldn't help but feel unwilling to leave after I ate my dinner - I'd rather just bask in the feeling of a full belly and a cozy restaurant. I also noticed the owner (?) greeting guests as they came in the door, treating everyone with respect, chatting with everyone from the workmen in orange vests to the established-looking couple in suits. In summary - great food plus gracious staff equals a highly recommended Indian restaurant.

The silver lining was that my 8yo son who typically does not like Indian food loved it, since it was way sweeter than he's used to. Service was quite slow so even though there were only two other tables filled when we went in. Ambiance was great and restaurant smelled great when you walk in.

We started with some yummy cocktails and the okra fries which were delicious - if only okra always tasted this good. For mains, we shared the chicken tikka, black daal, paneer and garlic naan. Pretty standard Indian order. The chicken tikka was just too spicy and we weren't used to that so it went mainly eaten. My favorite was the black daal but again, it wasn't so amazing that I would go and have it again. Honestly the best dish we had was dessert - the basmati kheer is a perfect rice pudding with crème brûlée like topping. So good. Service was spotty, I constantly found myself trying to find our server or make eye contact with him. They were slammed on a Tuesday night (which I'm sure is the case every night) so that's probably just the way things are but it could've been better. Disappointed but willing to try again, also made me want to try some other Indian spots in London next.

We had: Sheek kebab, prawn puri, chicken vindaloo and tikka masala, as well as usual sides. My son said the kebab had very little flavour and I could see it was pale rather than reddish. It looked like unseasoned lamb-pretty poor. Our puri was not great either. However, things picked up with the mains. The vindaloo had some heat to it and a rich source. The tikka masala contained (rightly) pieces of tikka in a thick and tasty source. Service was ok (sorry I can't say more than that really). Would I return? Yes, but would leave out the starters.

I got a lot of food for a really low price which is always lovely and the driver to my 3-star review. The food itself was tasty but not something I'd order again - it was just loaded with onions. I understand that a good curry requires some onion action but they should be cooked down not left at this semi-soft state. All 3 dishes had way to much onion which was a disappointment. I would like to say that the food really wasn't oily or too salty which is seriously worth noting given the usual state of Indian takeout in London.
