Standard Tandoori Restaurant

1st time back here in over 20 years. Myself & my husband were regular customers when we lived in Highbury but have moved twice since. The food is still excellent & it was quite emotional meeting the same waiter/manager who served us all them years ago plus he remembered us. Can't wait to return as we aren't that far away

Decent food but unwelcome non-vegetarian extras in my order. I went here once many years ago for eat-in and it was good, so when I recently moved into the area I ordered delivery. While the food was decent, they included loads of free extras I did not ask for like bhajis (which I don't like) and salad (which was wilted and room temperature). I appreciate the gesture (maybe they did it because I tipped through Deliveroo, but this was to give them extra support during lockdown) however it's wasteful and it gives me more rubbish to dispose of. The main problem with the freebies though was that they included MEAT samosas - everything in my order was vegetarian so it never even occurred to me that they would put meat in my order. It was not very pleasant to unexpectedly bite into a mouthful of lamb and I had to get rid of it, so it went to waste. I will consider ordering from here again but only if I am able to add a note for them to not include anything I didn't ask for.

Way better than the name suggests. One of the most consistent and good restaurants I've ever visited on a regular basis. The staff are brilliant, friendly, attentive and welcoming. They maintain a respectful distance so as to not intrude or interupt your meal. However they are more than happy to approach the table and engage in conversation if you indicate you wish to do so. Personal recommendations are: Roshni chicken, lamb rogan and chicken shashlik. Their poppadoms are close to floorless. Don't let the décor fool you, this place does excellent food.
