We had a great time here. Tried their Paneer Butter Masala and Garlic Naan. I’d definitely recommend trying their garlic naan. The staff is very friendly. We luckily met the owner of the place as well. He was very kind and ensuring everything was well for all his customers.

Had a truly authentic Indian dining experience. The Paneer Butter Masala and tarka daal are a must-try. The food was also very reasonably priced.
The service was fantastic and would highly recommend anyone who loves indian food!
Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian & non-vegetarian options and they catered for all our dietary requirements.

A bit of a new hidden gem. Right outside of St Mary le Strand. Popped in for a quick bite, and had lamb mirch with pilau rice, which was excellent, well spiced with enough heat to be pleasing, but not so much as to overwhelm the complex flavors (I'm a fan of serious heat, but in the right context!). Not very busy on a Sunday evening in October, but certainly deserves to be based on food quality.
Decor is decent - nice, upscale, although pretty Spartan as far as art or other decorative touches go. Hopefully they'll add some more touches as the business builds!
Prices were quite reasonable for Central London. Mini photos posted here as of October 2024.
Very attentive and friendly service, forgot to get photos of the dish, but will come back again and get proper photos!
