Yatri Reviews Summary

Food Quality

Pros:

• "Great tasting food! The dishes seem fresh and these were not heavy on cream and oils."
• "The taste of home made Indian food. I have been there 4 times already, tasted most of the curry dishes and all are excellent."
• "Delicious food. The spice is just right. We ordered chicken Bryan, chicken tikka, and Nan."
• "Absolutely outstanding experience at this Indian restaurant! We had an incredible meal."
• "Most important- the food was excellent. Paneer Masala was good and the chef’s recommendation was delicious."

Cons:

• "The food is good but a little bit too salty for me, especially the Black Dhal."
• "The disappointment was in the portion size. It was much less than expected."
• "However, the vegetable korma with 'seasonal' vegetables seemed to be made with frozen peas and carrots."
• "The menu is limited, we ordered the 2 curries that tasted exactly the same."
• "The onion bhajis were doughy and were really like big batter balls, not enough onion."

Service

Pros:

• "The staff is very polite and attentive. Service is really nice, quick and cheerful."
• "Found the service to be excellent. The staff was very friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better."
• "The staff is incredibly kind and attentive. Service was ever so accommodating as well as efficient."
• "The service was really good, food was ready quite quickly and the music and interior design created a very nice atmosphere."
• "The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating as well."

Cons:

• "Repeated upselling and getting customers out as quickly as possible. Staff were pleasant but clearly had an agenda."
• "Service was the only good thing. The restaurant is ok, it got quite loud at some point and we had to shout at each other."
• "The service wasn't great - maybe it was an off day but we were ignored a lot, and we had to ask for water for the table several times."
• "Little after an hour they dropped the bill on our table, not so subtlety hinting they wanted us out as they had people waiting."
• "Didn’t receive a napkin, knife, or fork when seated, had to make do with what was given with the dishes."

Ambiance and Atmosphere

Pros:

• "The atmosphere is chilled. We will definitely come again."
• "I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic Indian cuisine in London."
• "Atmosphere was energetic; 100% occupied when we were there. Highly recommend reservations."
• "The ambiance is modern with a touch of Indianness and the music is so so good."
• "Lovely Indian restaurant with great value dishes. They also have some really tasteful pictures of India and Indian cinema to enjoy and appreciate."

Cons:

• "It also gets quite cold at times."
• "The curries were average at best; anyone giving this place 4/5 based on the food is apparently new to Indian dishes."
• "It felt more like a bar than a restaurant at times, with obnoxiously loud music."
• "I thought I would try this based on the google reviews. It was a last minute decision as I was leaving London the day after."
• "We went there for a birthday celebration but it was not quite what we were expecting. We were somewhat disappointed."

Price and Value

Pros:

• "The prices are honest and portions decent. We spent 42£ for 2 people with no drinks and dessert."
• "This place did not disappoint!! Hands down the best Indian food I've ever had in my life! With generous portions, fresh ingredients and packed with flavor!"
• "Lovely Indian restaurant so glad we found it. Lovely tasty food cooked to perfection, good vibe, lovely staff."
• "Great Indian food and service. I was a solo traveling diner, and I found the portion sizes to be absolutely perfect."
• "The price paid was very reasonable and we will definitely visit Yatri again in our next trip to London."

Cons:

• "It costed me £6.3 which I don't think justifies for the Qty and Taste for a Fried rice."
• "The restaurant is overpriced for what it is- £8 for some lentils is a bit of a joke."
• "Very low quality food for the price. We feel sick 30 min after we eat the food."
• "Cumin rice is overpriced undersized and underwhelming. Garlic and cheese naan are overpriced undersized and bland."
• "Unit prices seemed not high but dish portions were quite small. Hence one might have to order more dishes & total bill adding up might not be that cheap."
