Food Quality

Pros:

  • "What an unforgettable meal! Worth every penny."

  • "Every single thing was fabulous! We especially loved the Coconut & Corn Tikki and Partridge Pepper Fry."

Cons:

  • "I wouldn't say the food is worthy of a Michelin."
  • "The food struggles to match that. Felt as if the flavor profiles have been notched down to please a certain palate, resulting in an underwhelming experience."
  • "Despite spending several hundred pounds, we were refused the Dessert Menu saying they needed the table."
  • "Flavour wise the dishes were hit and miss, some of them we found far too spicy."
  • "The first dish i had some aloo starter where the potatoes were totally over cooked and over seasoned."
  • "The main dish biryani of wild boar was a disgrace."
  • "The food was just good, but for almost £200 for two, it should be much much better."

Ambience and Decor

Pros:

  • "The decor is pretty."
  • "Decor balanced dark furniture with soft lighting for an intimate atmosphere."
  • "The facility itself is ambient with retro graphics adorning the walls and a clear relaxed atmosphere in the air."
  • "Super cool vintage/rustic industrial vibes, with some mirrored panel walls and a beautiful selection of lighting."
  • "The ambience is comfortable and quiet."
  • "Neat and pretty restaurant with a soft vibe."
  • "Great ambience and the restaurant is always busy so make sure to book ahead."

Cons:

  • "Tables are very small and so close together the people at the next table are in your conversation."
  • "The restaurant was quite noisy, and our tables were placed too close to others, so privacy was lacking."
  • "Due to the small size, it does seem like there's a constant flow of people passing our table and I'd prefer a more open space."
  • "Acoustics in the front room aren’t great and you can feel a breeze every time the door is opened."
  • "Not particularly creative food and cramped inside where we sat."
  • "The tables in this restaurant are so close together that you can practically elbow the people serving the next table."
  • "We were rushed out."

Value

Pros:

  • "Their lunch tasting menu is fantastic value (coming with a whole host of sides included in the price)."
  • "Went on a Saturday afternoon for the lunch tasting menu which is a bargain at only £35."
  • "£75 seems rather expensive but it was well worth it and it proved great value for money."
  • "The 3-course lunch set menu was great value and we left feeling very full."
  • "We had a 5 course tasting menu which had surprisingly large portions, you definitely won't go home hungry."
  • "You’ll also be happy to know that this culinary experience will not be breaking the bank with the 4 course lunch menu I’d ordered costing me a solid £40."
  • "Bit expensive due to the location and Michelin star 😏 but affordable."

Cons:

  • "Despite spending a lot to get to this restaurant, the experience was not worth it."
  • "Very expensive( because of the central London location and the star rating)."
  • "Had the “festive” taster menu, 6 courses without wine for £110pp... left hungry."
  • "They didn't justify the hefty price tag of 90 pounds per person."
  • "But for a michelin star restaurant I missed the wow factor that I expected and it’s somehow overpriced."
  • "For the price tag, I'm kind of surprised about the food since wasn't that special, you kind find similar dishes and taste for a much cheaper price."
  • "Overall if you come here you are being ripped off and they are resting on the laurels of when they got a Michelin star."
