Food Quality
Pros:
"The earthy tarka dal was a nice accompaniment to go with the curries, basmati rice & a naan."
"The King Prawn Puri was the best I've had in a long time."
"We ordered Hyderabad's chicken biryani and Lucknow Murg, Kadhai paneer and Naan. All the food items were great."
"Everything we had was (Tikka Masala, Tandoori Chicken, Butter Chicken) was delicious."
"The food at Taste of India was just amazing. My lamb curry and vegetable curry were divine."
"The food was delicious and the staff very friendly and helped us choose the best items."
"Delicious food. Possibly the best we have had in London but definitely the best indian we have ever had."
Cons:
"The food quality was very low. The ingredients seemed cheap and the preparation was haphazard."
"It was OK, but really no better than a microwave ready-meal from Tesco."
"The meat and prawns were overcooked."
"The spicy dish I ordered was mild and tasteless."
"One of the worst biryani I’ve ever had in my life."
"The butter chicken was a little on the sweet side, which overpowered every other flavour in the dish."
"Instead of Dal Makhani they made black gram daal. Daal makhani should be creamy but it was watery."

"The staff were attentive and friendly and the food was very good."
"The ambience is nice, we went in an evening around 5 for quick chaat items."
Cons:
"Very noisy atmosphere and prices more than I pay for an excellent meal at Mildred's - I don't understand how this place has an average rating of 4.6*"
"Nice Indian restaurant which is just one large room, so it was quite loud."
"However, current renovations around the Euston train station have led to road closures, making access to the restaurant a bit challenging."
"Athmosphere was anything but good."
"The music is a bit wild."

"Great food and reasonably price for the perfect location for Euston station and surrounding areas."
"At just over £20 a head, including drinks, it was very reasonably priced too."
"It's hard to find food this good for this price in London."
Cons:
"Overpriced and definitely not the 'TASTE' of India."
"Again, £15-16 pound for an average curry that should be around £8 is a bit of a rip off."
"The food was pricey, not fresh, and the portion very small."
"For quality of food it was overpriced."
"Charged us £7.95 for something that is worth about £2-3."
"The prices were very expensive compared to other places we’ve been."
