Brigadiers Reviews Summary

Food Quality

Pros:

• "Every dish we ordered knocked it out the park so I don’t think you can go wrong with any of the dishes."
• "The mixed grill is unreal. Every piece of meat, and prawn, cooked to perfection. So tender, so juicy, just fell apart."
• "Food is superb but your pocket will feel it. We ordered the vegetarian sizzler - a medley of marinated tandoori vegetables and it is brought to your table - sizzling!"
• "Absolutely next level Indian grub. I should probably say modern Indian but it’s traditional done in a unique way."
• "The lamb chops came out on a sizzling grill and was juicy and tender. I don’t usually like lamb as it can be quite gamey but this had a lovely spiced flavour."
• "An incredible Indian spot - from the mouthwatering kebabs to the rich curries, every dish bursts with authentic flavors."
• "Absolutely outstanding!! Butter Chicken Wings Beef Short Rib and Chilli Cheese Naan. Dishes I’d not seen before in an Indian restaurant and gosh they were good."
• "The prawn biryani - it had a very interesting twist with various lemon flavors!"

Cons:

• "Overall the taste of the food was okay. However, everything was too salty. For the price I would’ve expected it to be better."
• "Other food that stood out was the butter chicken, lamb skewer and the goat pau. I think generally I found the food to be on the salty side."
• "Dal Tadka: Full of garlic, which is ok but it was undercooked. It had the raw flavour. They ruined dal tadka."
• "Food & drinks prices are what you expect in a high end restaurant and they command Mayfair level pricing."
• "The food was delicious with every dish packed full of flavour! cocktails were exceptional and the mango lassi helped with the spice!"
• "The butter chicken was a highly elevated take on the usual chunks of chicken is gravy, in the form of a whole small chicken in a perfectly seasoned sauce."
• "The service is absolutely amazing, our waiter Jay took care of us and made us feel welcome! The food is incredibly delicious and excellent quality and the atmosphere is magic!"
• "Food was amazing. Mixed sizzler grill is an absolute must as well as the aubergine side. Cocktails were good too."

Service

Pros:

• "Service was prompt and attentive but a great atmosphere - lively and considerate."
• "The service was quick and helpful with our order as we were a large group."
• "The staff are very friendly and the food as expected to a very high standard."
• "The service from the staff was impeccable as was the food."
• "Absolutely next level Indian grub. I’d go as far as to say was one of the best Indian meals I’ve had in a long while."
• "The service is very good and the food is lovely."
• "The service is absolutely amazing, our waiter Jay took care of us and made us feel welcome!"
• "A special thanks to our server Amidu who was very friendly, professional and attentive"

Cons:

• "The service was slightly slow towards the end, the whiskey pairings didn't come with the desserts - we had to wait for quite a while and chased twice."
• "Service People were mannered, but we were pushed to leave even though we still had 30 min."
• "The drinks orders quite a while to be delivered to the room."
• "We did the set menu in the private room. Biggest waste of money I’ve ever spent."
• "Server was not the best with giving advice regarding food amounts and what’s a reasonable amount to order for one person."
• "The drinks were also super delicious. I don't think I've ever had Indian food this good so I will definitely be back when I'm in London again."
• "The atmosphere is fantastic and there were delightful drinks. However, the food didn’t live up the expectations."
• "I was very impressed with Brigadiers!! If you loved grilled meat and great Indian flavours there’s no better place to go."

Ambience

Pros:

• "A very enjoyable experience sitting at the bar. A great atmosphere - lively and considerate."
• "The atmosphere is lively and fun. Will definitely be back again!"
• "The atmosphere was nice, music in the background but not over powering so you could go for a nice dinner and have a conversation."
• "The atmosphere of this place is great."
• "The interior had a suitable theme."
• "The atmosphere is fantastic and there were delightful drinks."
• "The ambiance of this place is great."
• "The decor is really nice. There are a few rooms with the central room having a pool table."

Cons:

• "The drinks were alright but my friend chose a cocktail that looked like a glass of water (no garnish at all) and was extremely strong."
• "The atmosphere is the only negative point: while the interior style is pleasing and high-end, there are screens everywhere that show cricket (or some other sport) and that gives it a sports bar vibe."
• "I just didn't like how loud music was playing there. I could barely hear my friends."
• "The place is a bit cramped and dark."
• "This was followed by the price which makes everything worse. Obviously we were aware of the price, but anyone that goes here and thinks it’s good has obviously not tried proper Indian food made at a high standard."
• "The food was floating in oil, no taste, chicken was raw from inside."
• "The staff were friendly and helpful. I really enjoyed it and would go back there again and it was on one of the hottest days of the year and there air-conditioning worked."
• "The restaurant gets very busy and extremely noisy (especially since they accept toddlers into the establishment)."
