"We had to see some important clients in Canary Wharf earlier in the week. We booked this restaurant as they expressed a liking for indian food and the location was perfect. We arrived ten minutes early, and the waiter very kindly pointed us to a parking place very near. The restaurant was split into two, with the ground floor serving Italian food and the upstairs serving Indian food. It was modern and clean and was right on the wharf, with expensive yachts parked on the Quay. The menu was very, very extensive, with some dishes I had not heard of before. We ordered a cross-section of vegetarian and meat/chicken dishes. These dishes turned up almost immediately, and none of them were freshly prepared. We got the impression everything was just reheated. None of the food was hot, not even the nan breads or Roti. The service was very amateur, though friendly enough. There were a total of five of us eating. Three of the others shared a bottle of Rioja, one had a beer, and we used three bottles of water. No one wanted a dessert. The food was cheap for the area, but it would have been much better to increase the prices and also the quality. The menu should (in our opinion) be reduced to a manageable length size so that it could all be prepared properly. The total bill was just under £200 and 12.5% service charge was added, making it £222. There were not a lot of clients in either the Indian of Italian parts of the restaurant, though our booking qas early at 6.30pm (leaving at 9pm) When we left we thought what a shame, for such a nicely presented venue, in a unique setting."

"delicious, rare, thoughtful food. zaibatsu, directly above the street, also sells exceptional food to cheap trips, and is also a byo. they can not enter without prebook, and sometimes not then. I predict that this locality will become a rendezvous for food, given the excellent Kerala offer at pathiri. don't be snob. it is the first set. I had the fish- and green mango-curry, which was full of texture and bite, with none of the appeasing and cheerfulness they can sometimes bear with fish-curry. the two veggies in our party were thrilled by their choice (the, sorry, I forgot). I thought the chicken beryani was delicious, but the person it had was underwhelmed. picky, fastidious person she is. trust me, that was amazing, fresh eating at a very reasonable price: even the pickles were a change and we were crying to identify the aromes. as I said, it would be a surprise if the booking in six months is not necessary to get into the door. as soon as the food reveals this place. regarding the service, I read a celebrity exam. our server was friendly, informal, attentive and funny. probably not good when they are out to impress the boss, but it was good to impress me. The toilets are almost as ghastly as the blue stretch nylon covers on the chairs, but listen, we are not eating the chairs! In short, a total eating meets a do-able price and worthy of their attention. the new spicy restaurant of preference in Greenwich/Blackheath."
