Definitely an operation that wants you moving in and out pretty quickly, but the food is enjoyable, though not the best Indian I've had in London. read more

We came here when we couldn't get into the Turkish restaurant. Food was a 4. I don't know what I got but it was delicious. I asked for chicken tikka masala but wanted it spicy so the waiter suggested something else that was in a rich red sauce but absolutely spicy. My companion got the chicken rojan. It was only ok so that's why they get a 4 for food. The naan was OK, not great. I got the garlic naan and my companion got the lamb naan. Service was a 4. Nice staff but not very attentive. I would have liked the server to tell me what the dish was that I ordered. They weren't very busy so they could have taken the time. Location: 5. very close to us so that's why I gave this place a total score of 4. If I had to hop on a tube, I wouldn't come back and this place probably would have gotten a 3. So, in short, if you're walking distance, this is a good little indian place. If you have to hop a tube, I'm sure there are better ones closer to you. read more

Reviews are subjective, and given how busy and bustling it was on a wet Tuesday night I'm sure this place has plenty of fans... Not for me though, strikes the typical 'UK/Indian' restaurant experience which is comforting (from over ordering on popadoms to start through to hot towels at the end) I can't knock the warm / comforting experience.. The food in my opinion wasn't fantastic though, a touch too oily, and a bit bland. I'm sure if you're sinking a few beers with a meal here it fits the bill...food alone? Many many better places a short tube ride away from central London.. read more

We are visiting from across the pond and stopped in here because we had no WiFi and were looking for Indian. Tikka wasn't that great, naan wasn't great, and their pakora substitute was soggy. Service was nice enough, they threw in "free" chutney. We asked for forks for our take out and got spoons. Pretty bummed as I sit in my hotel room holding my sad Indian food. read more

My wife and I just returned from The New Jomuna. We started with an order of Dall Puri (spicy lentils with fluffy bread). We also ordered some Chicken Tikka (tender pieces of chicken or lamb lightly spiced, cooked over charcoal, served on a sizzler), plain nan, cucumber/onion raitha, coconut rice, and the fabled Chicken Phall (which is listed as "extremely hot" and came with a warning from our waiter). The Phall was as described: rectum searing hot and capable of testing the intestinal fortitude of any creature with mucus membranes. For those that like to experience hot, try this once. For those with no sense of self-worth who don't care about flavor and only relish pain, try this more than once. The Dall Puri was delicious and well seasoned. The Chicken Tikka was perfectly cooked on the outside and moist and tender on the inside. As for the coconut rice, I read a review before dining tonight that stated "[T]he coconut is flaked by angels..." I was pleasantly surprised to find that comment to be spot on! This is a MUST try dish and goes very well with the many spices and flavours present in any of their dishes. The waiters aren't very attentive, but the food and the prices make up for what this place may lack in service. I would definitely dine here again. read more

Won't go again. Went on a whim because the place we wanted to go didn't take cards. Server was cold. Just not personable at all. Felt like we were bothering him just being there. They nickle and dime you for everything. Tiny portions of Chicken Vindaloo for £10 includes nothing else. Rice? Pay separate. Water? £5 Evian only. And WHY was everything sweet? Tikka Masala was like eating candy. Vindaloo was sweet. The naan was super greasy. Skip this place. read more

This is axtraditional indian restaurant. We ordered everything to go because it was rainy and the next day we were flying to reykjiavik. The curry were very good. I usually dont like curry but this one has a good japanese style flavor which is much more mellow than the indian food restaurants in Jacksonville. The nan was made in house and i loved it. Rice was plentiful and was more than enough for the five of us. We bought two types of curry and the hot curry was not spicy enough to bother my tongue. Whenever in london its a good place to get food read more

OK I agree with the previous reviewer - well the last bit! ...... "Not Bad" Absolutely packed at 8pm on a Wednesday, but they slotted me in a table near the bar. A bit loud. Vindaloo was hot to very. Tarka Dhall had a great taste but was the consistency of soup. Rice, bread, couple of pints - £22. So 4*. Probably a victim of its own success, there are another couple of Indians in the same street that have to employ donkeys to stand outside handing out leaflets to tempt people in . Service was actually OK considering the number of punters, but the bill took a long time. There were lots of folk bizarrely standing around waiting for staff to bring them their coats so they could leave. Get a better system! Maybe I'm getting picky but there're A LOT of Indians in this area of a similarly good quality. This one doesn't disappoint; neither does it sparkle. read more

My fiance and I stopped in The New Jomuna partly because we were staying in an AirBnb across the street and mostly because of these amazing Yelp reviews! We knew that we needed to try some Indian food whilst on our trip in the UK. I took from my fellow Yelp reviewer's advice and ordered the coconut rice. HOLY BALLS it is amazing! It was like candied, delicious, so sweet and amazing rice sent from the gods. We made sure to order plenty of naan too. We both got vegetarian entrees that were phenomenal as well. The service was great, everyone was very kind and didn't have a problem explaining some of the entrees to us. We had a sassy French family next to us that yelled a bit at the poor waiter. I still dream of the coconut rice now that we're back in the states, I'll have to find it somewhere! read more

I stayed with a friend in the area and we wanted some food after a long day of traveling and shopping. Randomly ended up here. The place was crowded, and we felt like we sat together with the two English men on the next table. Not a big deal. Service was good, the food was good but I've had better. Everything was fine, but nothing more. I would come here again. read more

Excellent food. Found this place while starving and desperately needing food after a long day of travel. The staff was super nice and helpful. We ordered some great food and accepted some recommendations, all of which were superb. Glad we found this place and would recommend to anyone. read more

The New Jomuna - Indian Near Me - London, XGL

We were thoroughly disappointed with this Indian all of the dishes that we ordered were loaded with sugar all the sauces were sweet or loaded with oil. Chicken korma was in a sweet sauce and didn't taste like korma at all. Chicken tikka masala was in a sweet sauce also and tasted nothing like it should have, chicken was limey... Saag paneer and aloo gobi was loaded with oil Even the rice was oily. The best thing about this restaurant was the lemon washcloth they gave you at the end to clean your hands along with an after eight mint. Very dissatisfied and def won't be eating there again. read more

They have coconut rice. Actually, not only do they have coconut rice but the coconut is flaked by angels. To eat this coconut rice with the prawn bhuna is heaven on earth. That is why this curry restaurant is my favourite. Unfortunately it is just a bit more costly than the mediocre-but-still-tasty curries you can get at the Sainsburys across the street so we don't go there often. That's really my only complaint. read more

I came through for take-away a couple of nights back, and have mixed emotions. I had butter chicken and nan, both of which were good. The sauce on the chicken was a touch sweet, and not especially creamy, which was a little bit surprising, but overall the flavor was wonderful. The bread was puffy and warm, and overall it was a great meal. That said, my chicken dish had about four strips of chicken in a huge dish of sauce. I came away slightly hungry and wishing I had ordered more, which should never really be the case when I'm having Indian food. The location is pretty standard for Wilton Road, just a thin strip of restaurant with the kitchen in the basement. It's not bad at all, but I feel like two or three minutes' walk in either direction will take me past several places that are as good. read more

Fairly bog standard Indian restaurant located near Victorian station. The food was so-so, for instance, the naan was not fluffy and a bit wet, the chicken tikka was very dry and the spinach + cheese dish (i forget the name) was pure butter. The vindaloo was pretty good though. Service was bad. Waiters were slow and rude. They also charged us for an entire bottle of wine when we had one glass. No apologies for the "mix-up" Would strongly recommend going elsewhere. read more

Diner beware. Pappadom brought out with menu. They were not complimentary. Pitiful serving of rice for 2 people. 6 pound service charge for 2 people. Naan was gritty. Our Indian restaurant in St George Utah is 200% better. Wifi not working so had to go to ATM across street for cash read more

Rude waiters!!!!! Asked a few questions about the dishes and our waiter got annoyed and walked off. Didn't come back until 30 minutes later, when he finally brought our drinks. We had to wave down another waiter and ask him what happened to ours. Food was very average, to below average. Go here if you love rude waiters, waiting for your food and drinks forever, and ok to not so good food. read more

Really, amazingly freakin' good. Not expensive, either. I've been to London twice, and went here both times. Yes, there are hundreds (thousands?) of other Indian places to try, but I went back to this one a second time. My first trip included highlights of my friends trying the Phaal and crying, needing to get a bowl of ice to recover. Note that these guys love spicy food, and said it was the spiciest thing they'd ever eaten. My second trip was slightly more tame - chicken balti, prawn paneer, some other random chicken dish, lots of breads and sides, and a dish that said it would "blow your head off." It didn't, but it was perfectly spicy to still be tasteful. 71 pounds for 3, for a mighty feast. Not bad. read more

My family and I came here for dinner last night. Based on my experience, I can't say is worn the rating it had on yelp. First, the service was terrible. The restaurant was empty though the nearby restaurants were busy (a warning sign we should have heeded) though it rather late at night so we decided to give it a try. And although we were told it was an hour and a half from closing, it looked like they had already checked out. We needed to ask for water three times, before it arrived, even though there were four members of the wait staff idling around and we were the only customers. Even then, we had to pour our own water and they brought ice separately in a bowl. Which was... odd. I wish I could say the food made it work out, but it was decidedly mediocre. The coconut rice was overcooked, yet still managed to have hard, uncooked grains. I don't know how they managed that. The tandoori chicken was dry, and the rest of the food was decidedly eh. At least it wasn't actively bad. Which is why I'm not giving them 1 star. Just not nearly work their rating online, and far worse than the other Indian food we had on our visit to England. read more

The food was definitely good, about on par with most of the places I've been to in NY. Decor was very nice. Service was not very good. They seemed confused about pretty much everything and often forgot to bring us small things we asked for, like water. Overall, you'll probably have a good meal here but you can probably find better. read more

Naj our waiter was so awesome. We had tikka masala and garlic naan which was amazing. The environment is mellow but cool and we really enjoyed our dining experience. I would recommend it to anyone in the area. We are walked over after watching billy Elliot which was a nice shirt walk. read more

Awful service. Waiters with big time attitudes. Racists towards their own kind. Food was alright - nothing out of the ordinary. We waited forever for okay food. Beware Indian/Pakistani folks - they don't treat you well here. They seem angry you'd ask for anything at all. read more

My dad and I are staying in London for a few days on our way back home from Dublin and we're staying at the Park Plaza Victoria Hotel. We stumbled across New Jomuna after a stroll on the cold winter streets and decided to check it out. Initially I was excited when I ordered because the night before we had dinner at Kazan restaurant across the road and the food was phenomenal. Unfortunately, Kazan was closed at the time so we settled on New Jomuna. We ordered the chicken biriyani, garlic and onion Naan, a Butterfly King Prawn and Lamb Shashlik. The food looked good when it came, however we were quickly disappointed. The food was way too bland for my taste. Some people may disagree, but this Trinidadian is accustomed to flavourful food. Furthermore, when we were leaving my dad asked for the bill but soon realized the numbers didn't add up. Whether this was intentional or not I can't say but it was highly suspicious that the waiter wrote the drink orders on the bill in pen, scratched off the machine generated total then wrote in a completely wrong total. Needless to say my dad made him recalculate our total and correct his "mistake". In addition to that unsavory experience, when we got back to the hotel a few hours later I started feeling sick. I am currently experiencing diarrhea, vomiting, stomach aches and a mild fever. We quickly realized that the King Prawn I ate gave me food poisoning since it was the only dish I ate in days that my dad didn't also eat. In the final analysis, the combination of bland food, sketchy service and food poisoning have completely put me off New Jomuna forever. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE. Ultimately it is up to you whether you choose to dine there but if you have a similar experience to mine don't say you weren't warned. read more

food was ok, nothing special. price is a little bit to high for the food but the service is disgusting and so the price is completely to high read more

From outside it looked ok, once you're sat at the cramped table you see the Décor is very tired and carpet sticks to your feet that's when we should have got up and left, what a mistake!!!!!! Both toilets downstairs are very tired and dirty, when you flushed water overflowed the pan and ran all over the tiled floor, it then runs in to the corridor that also connects to the kitchen which all staff going to have to walk through when going to the kitchen. When you look into the kitchen you can see the freshly prepared food sat in open containers and colanders on the same section of wet floor! One item was a colander full of onions which are served raw with the poppadum's', anyone walking into the kitchen through the dirty water would splash on them. I did bring this to the restaurant manager after I had paid so I was not looking for a free meal we just wanted to pay and leave, he just said "yes it's not good but we have a flood". Then we were over charged for food we had not ordered or eaten, on inspection of the bill we noticed that they charge 80p for each poppadum which is normal I agree but then they charge 80p each for the chutney's which I have never seen before, 1/2 pint draft Cobra £3.10 or £4.95 a pint which tasted off so we went bottles at £5.95 each A meal of 4 poppadum's & chutney, 3 starters and 4 main courses with 3 rice and 1 Nan with drinks of £35 cost £120. I contacted the EHO who seemed to know of this restaurant, its food rating is on the web at 3 out of 5. read more

My Indian restaurant of choice when in Pimlico. (apart from the Akhbar if I'm prepred to walk).

We happened upon this restaurant when walking back to our hotel after a long day of touring. Wow, what a great find. The food was delicious! I have to be gluten and dairy free, so eating out is not that easy. The waiter was great. He helped me pick out something that was safe to eat - chicken kabob, and I just loved it. My son had a lamb dish and also loved his entree. I would highly recommend it. read more

My boyfriend and I went here and received one of the worst service experiences I've ever had. The waiters when asked for anything seemed angry that you needed anything, the restaurant had just opened! The food was decent except for the Naan. We ordered two of them and both came not completely cooked all the way. I will never go here again and would not recommend. read more

Good food and service but beware of the MADras!. This had a few of us in a bit of a sweat. Slightly over priced but a good all round experience. read more
