"the third time when eating in social dhaba, great atmosphere, beautifully decorated, personal was really friendly and polite. they've checked us a lot, but not intrusive. eating was delicious, but as always we had ordered some appetizers and they were all quite spicy, even for the chili lovers of our party. we drank a lot of boundless water. Please note that it is not ideal for younger children who cannot tolerate cold heat. but social dhaba I am back!"

"very nice restaurant. love the interiors. beautiful looking place with a bar. and apparently they soon open a Sheesha lounge and look forward to it! had a great experience here. Eat: we started with Indian ingwer and Masala tea, which was really good, and pappadum. for the main course we ordered chicken tikka masala and a fried rice, dhaba chicken and pilaureis and Karahi sprout with plain naan. I must say we were not disappointed by any of the dishes. the food was delicious and portioned enough to fill it completely. price: a little expensive, too little for us students, but I would say it worth it. service: the staff is very polite and beautiful! very happy with the service. definitely recommend this place to anyone who loves or wants to try good Indian food!"

"A friend and I went here the first week I was in London. It was my first restaurant experience, and I was glad we chose Indian I have heard all the rumors about London food, including that Indian food is supposed one of the best cuisines offered. Since I love Indian food, I was excited to try it.We arrived before the dinner rush and were the only two people in the restaurant. We had chosen what we wanted after only a few moments, so we shut our menus and waited. And waited. We ceased talking as we waited. We were sitting by the windows and the waitress was on the other side of the restaurant at the bar, texting, not paying attention to see if we were ready. It was quite frustrating to be the only people in a restaurant and still take more than ten minutes to place our order.She finally realized we were ready and after this blip the dining experience became much more enjoyable. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala rice and naan do not come with the mains, and each cost more than two pounds which makes the meal kind of expensive, but it was really amazing. Some of the best Indian food I've had in a while.The decor of the restaurant was nothing special and if you didn't already know it was Indian cuisine you wouldn't be able to tell. The food was great, which is the most important part, but if I wanted to come here again I would probably order it to go."

"Went here on a group curry night and had such a great evening. I had booked online and got a courtesy call 2 days before to check all is good. When we arrived there was friendly staff who greeted us and showed us to our table where our drinks order was taken and was informed of 2 for 1 on cocktails till 19:30 which we took advantage of. The venue looks very authentic and you can see the chefs preparing the food. The food came out in good time despite it being very busy on our visit and came in good portion sizes. The food was so tasty and flavoursome and had the right amount of spice and not overdone on the chilli's. I would recommend booking for a Saturday night as was near capacity, but staff cope effortlessly and food was coming out in good time............I would definitely return here again."

"The food was delicious, but there was some confusion between the online menus and the paper menu. It seems that the paper menu was different because it was their festive menu. Options labeled as vegan on the online menu were listed as vegetarian on the paper menu. When I inquired about this discrepancy and asked for confirmation on which dishes were vegan, the server had to consult with a colleague and eventually provided me with a paper copy of the vegan menu. It seemed there were communication issues as he initially began discussing the chicken section of the menu. Despite the confusion, the food arrived quickly and I enjoyed it. However, I would have preferred a smoother experience without the added stress and uncertainty regarding menu options."

"I have to start by saying how the staff are always smiling. They 're friendly and have some great recommendations. Moving onto the food, we ordered the chaat platter, chilli paneer and prawns from the tandoor clay oven. I was disappointed by the paani Puri it lacked the tang and explosion of taste you expect, instead it had a very bland and lacked flavour. However the rest of the items on the platter were absolutely fabulous!! Fresh, crunchy, tangy, tasty, flavourful. Everything you expect from a chaat platter. I could have ordered another 2 (without the paani Puri) The chilli paneer was one of the best I 've had! The tandoor clay oven prawns were perfectly cooked and had the right amount of 'tandoor ' taste however the marinate flavour was lacking. Mains veg Kolhapuri.... Oh my gosh!!!! No words can describe how amazing this was and how is it was possible to make veg taste like it did!!! It was absolutely divine!!! We ate it with garlic naan, that too was fab.. it was rolled to the right thinness and had the absolute perfect amount of garlic and butter!! An absolute treat. I should mention as we ate others sat around us on other tables just couldn 't stop complementing the foods they had ordered! So I 'm definitely going back to taste the other items! Desserts gulab jamun and pistachio kulfi ... At first glance the gulab jaman looked lost in the bowl it was presented in, the syrup was way too thin and the 2 balls were too small. However, the taste.... I don 't think I 've had better. Some improvement required in the presentation and with the syrup .. but the taste 5 5 .. amazing! The pistachio kulfi I expect frozen... But ... We couldn 't dig in... Waited almost 25 30mins for it to soften ... Once it did once again the taste was everything you expect... Another 5 5. However does require some thinking to ensure the customer doesn 't leave with a brain freeze instead of the flavoursome taste. We enjoyed multiple drinks including mango lassi, lemonade and mint tea all of which were fab.. even the mango lassi was the perfect consistency however it comes with ice which when melted affects the taste of the lassi (server should ask if the customer would like or not I wasn 't given an option) I 'm going back!! And I definitely recommend!!"
"The whole experience was shambles from start to finish. We had booked online via The Fork, which was totally ignored. Our order was taken very casually no pen paper or written which resulted to our order not being processed at all. We waited 50 mins and when asked the waiter the answer repeatedly was Food coming eventually they had realised they had got their knickers twisted but even then wouldn't admit their fault. Finally we was served our food but not what we had ordered, obviously because they had forgot what we had ordered lol. Oh BTW we was also overcharged for something we hadn't had, hence please always check the bill. We would definitely not visit again, not once any member of the staff apologised, may be because of the location they get so many tourist so they are not bothered."

"We went to Giftos last week. Due to ramzaan its jam packed at iftaar time. They dont take booking so the trick is to come minimum 20-25 mins early to get the table.They serve dates to break the fast. We called for few veg and non veg items I will give rating below. We were so hungry totally forgot to take photos Seekh kebab 3/5 Haleem 3.5/5 Matar Paneer 2.5/5 Paneer tikka 1/5 chicken karahi 3.5/5 Kulfi rabdri falooda 3/5 there was no rabdri and kulfi was ok in taste Not sure if the chefs were under pressure to make food at iftar time for so many tables. We found chkn Karahi bit oily. Over all the food was good. We will try once more once ramzan is over and if there is difference."

"Balbirs provided an excellent experience as always, but with a touch of sadness. The ambience was great as usual, with a more festive atmosphere as diners enjoyed what was called their "last supper" at the West End location. Unfortunately, Balbirs is closing in the West End but will continue in Ayrshire. I can't help but wonder if they will still deliver..."

"Small frontage but surprisingly spacious, clean and comfortable restaurant. We're doing meat-free May so wanted somewhere with no meaty smells or options and this was perfect. Tried some new dishes the dhosa was amazing and I'll definitely be going back for that. I got to try pani puri which was fun and surprisingly tasty for what it was. We'll be back next time we're in the vicinity. Service was pleasant but nothing special the food is definitely a reason to return though."

"I took my mother to the Two Sisters restaurant for her birthday last Sunday. We were immediately greeted and informed about the brunch options (i.e. buffet versus brunch specials and other adjustments, such as turkey bacon instead of pork). I think this is a great place for a relaxed brunch and definitely for a mother-daughter date. We loved the food and the service. We drove to a Groupon and will definitely drive again without the Groupon. Worth it."

"We tried this place during lunch time. It is pocket friendly and offers amazing Indian flavor and a good variety of Indian snacks and food. Flavor is rich and spicy so be careful if you aren't so accustomed to strong Indian spices. Even so, it's worth a try. We love this place for the price we pay and the quality of food we get."

"beautifully decorated and good ambiente, tee was fantastic, each table separated gives them a little more protection against coviding and decent private sphere aswell. it was a bit busy Wednesday night, but free seats were available. free parking on the street. does not have much to do with the staff, so do not know how good they are to order tee was ok experience."

"CeCe Peniston's hit from the 90's Finally started blaring in my head as I tucked into my delivery from Mumbai Delights. At long last I found an indian restaurant in central London that delivers reasonably good indian food. The samosas, punjabi style, looked like they were actually made at the restaurant, the most importantly there was a good masala flavour in the potato and peas inside. The seekh kebabs, these obviously contain no colouring whatsoever, they were plump and juicy and had obviously just come out of the tandoor, they tasted mild, with a subtle hint of spices, I prefer my seekh kebabs a bit more spiced up, but honestly these were making me think one word while eating...read more"
