Dishoom Shoreditch Reviews Summary

Food Quality

Pros:

• "The best Indian food I have ever had, all dishes are great!"
• "Delicious and well priced breakfast. Loved that they have bottomless chai for £3.90 which is addictive."
• "An absolutely amazing breakfast experience. Didn't automatically think this would be a great breakfast but had the breakfast Omelette and was impressed."
• "Absolutely delicious food! One of the best Indian restaurants I visited."
• "Great food and even better service. Truly enjoyed the experience and the quality of food."
• "Food was perfect, as many people already reviewed, for me it was also the best Indian food I ever had, no doubt!!"
• "Amazing food! Specially the Vada Pao is to die for. We ordered Chhole Puri and it was also really nice."
• "Guaranteed great food and excellent vibes! I had dinner with family at Dishoom and absolutely everything we ordered was a hit."

Cons:

• "The food was quite good, yet the portions were really small."
• "Fairly mediocre, run of the mill food. It wasn't the best I've ever had, but certainly better than average."
• "Food was okayish, not as good as the hype. There are better authentic Indian places in London from the perspective of taste and authenticity."
• "Half the dishes were good but overly hyped... even Naan bread was dried out."
• "Food was good but not great, especially when compared to other Dishoom outlets which feel more spacious with better service and ambiance."
• "Food was quite good, more like 3.5 stars than 3 to be fair. Service felt very rushed though."
• "Nice lunch experience... I wouldn't take children there because I couldn't see any child friendly items on the menu."
• "Everything the reviews talk about. But, even better. After waiting an hour to get a table for one, this solo traveler got seated in the beautiful patio."

Service

Pros:

• "Our waiter was outstanding, offering excellent recommendations from the menu that enhanced our enjoyment."
• "The service was really commendable."
• "Good services absolutely great atmosphere."
• "The service from the staff was brilliant. The atmosphere and smells of different spices was delightful."
• "The staff is incredible, I shared my intolerance to onion and literally the whole staff worked the menu and made annotations and arrangements for the whole time."
• "Service was great and so was the ambience! Be sure to reserve a table as Dishoom is a well-known restaurant in London."
• "Staff are friendly and efficient. It feels like the 5* hotel service. P.S. a great choice for vegetarians! Thank you so much Dishoom."
• "Our server was extremely friendly and explained how the menu and ordering process worked which was helpful and great to know that it all comes out once cooked."

Cons:

• "The waitress often walked away while we were still asking for something or ordering."
• "They forgot our drink which can happen at this full situation but when we addressed this there was no apology or similar just an 'ok'."
• "Almost every staff was friendly but... the waitress already typed into the card machine 15% of the end price and we were shocked!"
• "It is very dark especially in the corners it is very tight and dark. Even the guests and waitress had to use a phone flashlight to see something."
• "Absolutely horrible service, I had to physically walk up to people asking to order, get a new drink etc."
• "Once inside, Dishoom Shoreditch feels small and cramped in comparison. Especially for the smaller tables like a table for two - Barely enough space to fit two starters, two mains and drinks on for us!"
• "During the wait at the bar for our table, we were ignored and struggled to order any drinks."
• "Service was good but not great, definitely worth visiting once."
