Proper Indian food along Edgware road! All the dishes ordered were delicious like the Briyani and Chicken Tikka! Service was good too, and even the plates were hot and cleaned like a hotel service. Went there a few times and still had never been disappointed. Highly recommended! Price a little bit pricey but the portion is good for sharing.

Don't often leave reviews but this was definitely worth writing about. The butter chicken was exquisite; exactly how i expect it to be. Creamy and full of flavour. Naan was fresh and full of flavour. Fries and kebabs was on point. Food is outstanding and service. Would definitely come back again and recommend this place. Price of everything was fantastic as well. They are HALAL as well. 💯

Great food. We were visiting from the US and loved every bit of it. We had heard good things about the curry food in the UK and this did not disappoint. Sad that we are leaving that we can’t have more!

I visited London ( from Glasgow) with my 2 children. This has to be the first restaurant where i found the food perfectly made. It was also No.1 with my son who is very fussy about food. The Mixed grill was delish ! Highly recommend. Will be back again.

I stepped in on a Friday evening seeking a quick dine in option. There were only 3 occupied tables so I was served almost immediately. Told the waiter that I want a quick option and asked if Biryani would be ok, he said definitely. I wanted a mutton curry but he said that would take time, so he suggested to take a stir fry chicken dish and replace it with mutton meat which I agreed. Also advised that veg biryani rice (which I originally wanted) would be too big portion, so he recommended to go with Palaf Rice with veg as a side.

Food was served hot and tasted fresh. Waiter came by to check if the food was ok. Figured out he is not the smiley type but he cares! Also the old 1* reviews might suggest that they have changed chef? Some recent 1* reviews could be left by surrounding competitors since they didn’t provide any details of their dining experience?

Taste, quality and portion are good imo. Prices wise I cannot comment since I am only visiting but London is getting really expensive anyway!

Edit: the waiter came back and asked if I finished my meal, he smiled this time! 😊

Staff is very rude
Even though they are treating like they are distributing free food
Food was not wow
I ordered mix grill and Punjabi samosa
Samosa was ok but very small
But the mix grilled was not very nice and they included shrimp but shrimp was empty
Waste of money totally

The food is tasty and portion of biryani is generous, enough for two to share. I recommend lamb bhuna, a chopped fried and flavourful dish which is great with fresh naan or rice. I didn’t order it in this photo but it’s my favourite I realised and regretted not ordering it. The biryani comes with a small curry.
Also we received complimentary salad and that salad is so fresh and traditional.
The whole menu is halal.
Order to personal spice level can be requested.

The restaurant itself is nice and clean, the waiters are very professional.

Order: chicken biryani, chicken karai, butter naan, fresh orange juice (x2) and Pepsi. £43 (approx.)

Butter naan was great. Really light and fluffy, could taste the freshness and felt like it almost melted in the mouth.

The rest... meh. BLAND biryani, could only taste the coriander. Chicken karai was OK but nothing to brag about. Very disappointing.

Staff were friendly though and the food arrived quickly.
