"My two friends and I visited Nimboo on a Friday night. The restaurant was only half full, so we were seated next to a wall. I placed my soft leather handbag on the floor next to my chair and ordered the fish curry, which unfortunately was disappointing. The dish resembled a thick tomato soup with small bits of fish. When I picked up my bag, I discovered it was wet and the leather had become soft like a sponge, ruining it. There was a leak next to me, so I informed the waitress who seemed unsure of the issue. The waiter brought a folded tablecloth to soak up the water, but did not address my damaged bag. As I walked to the bathroom, I noticed cartons on the floor to absorb the leaking water. I was puzzled as to why we were seated at that table when they were aware of the leak. I have no plans to return to Nimboo after this experience."

"I’ve walked past here so many times when heading to the station and finally getting to try it didn’t disappoint. Inside it’s a lot smaller than I had imagined and upon arrival the reception staff were a little blunt, but the impressive decor was enough to distract and fortunately the rest of the staff throughout the meal were superb. They were each able to recommend dishes and explain the options, all while remaining friendly and welcoming. The menu is extensive and mostly geared around ‘special’ dishes, leaving the more traditional items to a small easily missable section. This encouraged me to try something new and I wasn’t disappointed. The chicken liver starter was a decent size, arriving in good time (especially since the size of our group) and thoroughly enjoyable. The presentation of all the starters on the table was good and no one had any complaints. The mains also arrived in good time and were equally well presented. The portion sizes initially didn’t look great but that must have been an illusion, since we all finished suitably stuffed! Each dish was exceptionally flavoursome, with just the right amount of spice and herbs justifying the special promise of each item on the menu. The rice dishes were delicious and the keema rice had loads of meat in it which was superb. The naan breads were a particular speciality they are served huge hanging from the table and are delicious. Overall every item on the table was delicious and impressive. The tables are all very large making them ideally suited for groups. They compliment the decor and are works of art in themselves. It’s nice for the kitchen area to be open and if you’re sat nearby to it it’s entertaining watching the skilful staff make the breads. The drinks were a little slow to be served but perhaps this wasn’t helped by the size of our group. Overall it was a wonderful meal and a memorable curry. It’s certainly not the cheapest but the quality of food and more unique aspects make it worthwhile and I’d certainly return."

"Despite its small size, this restaurant is still quite nice! The food is delicious, especially the naan, which I found to be even better than the naan I had in India. The prices are a bit high, but the quality of the food makes it worth it. I hope to visit this place again in the future."

"We were pleasantly surprised by our experience at Spice Zone. The restaurant has a simple decor, typical of "high street" Indian restaurants, but the food quality was outstanding. They offer a variety of delicious North Indian and South Indian dishes. Surinder, our host, was friendly and we had a great time chatting with him during our visit. We will definitely be coming back again."

"The food at this restaurant was really delicious and the portion sizes were generous. The appetizers were especially good. My friends ordered the Thali and were very pleased with their choice, especially since it came with dessert. I opted for two small curries with rice and Naan, and I was extremely satisfied with everything. The Naan was freshly baked and helped me scoop up every last bit from my plate. I can't wait to come back and use my loyalty points for another visit."

"I came to the restaurant with my partner for my anniversary. The service that we received was outstanding. We went for the set menu with seven courses. Every course was well explained by our waiter as we were not familiar with the Indian cuisine. The food was extremely tasty and our waiter was excellent. He was busy with a large party, but we didn't feel neglected. When we booked we mentioned that was our anniversary. We had a dessert with Happy Anniversary written on it! How nice it is. We asked the waiter name, Vishnu. He was so friendly and professional. We will be back very soon."

"I chose this restaurant because of its good reputation, but I was disappointed with the food. My Bombay aloo lacked salt and the cheese naan was not very cheesy. The restaurant is divided into two sections: a restaurant and a pub. However, it feels more like a pub, as you have to walk through the pub to reach the bathroom, which can be uncomfortable. Additionally, the TV was muted with Indian music videos playing, but it would have been better to have the sound on for a more authentic Indian dining experience. Despite these shortcomings, the cocktails were delicious, especially the Passion Fruit Martini. The waiter was attentive and even offered more bread during our meal. One highlight was the option to take home leftovers, which was convenient for lunch the next day."

"Arrived in London late and hungry. We still had to check in to our hotel and had noticed, on the Yelp App, that Salt was not far. We asked the front desk guy about it but apparently he wasn 't a fan. He referred to it as where night people went. Not sure what he meant by that at the time but, it was night and I was hungry so, I guess that made me one of them. Left our things in the room and walked to Salt. As we approached the restaurant we realized what he meant. We were in a middle eastern part of town and this place was packed even though it was already 10pm on a weekday. The people at the outside tables were smoking hookah, having delicious looking Nan bread with dipping sauces, and everyone seemed to be having a great, relaxing time. Seemed like a great place so far. Went in and liked it even more. Plenty of tables all around, beautiful and very organized full bar (with a long list of whiskeys), and we were seated immediately. Took me a while to decide on what to eat, they have a good variety of dishes on their menu, mostly Indian cuisine but there some dishes for people who prefer things like a burger or fish and chips. Finally decided on their Chicken wrap, and we also ordered a lamb wrap and potato cake. While we waited for the food we got our drinks... vodka soda and a Campari Spritzer. The food came out fairly fast and hot. Big portions and Big flavors. The Chicken wrap had a delicious curry taste, and you can ask for it to made with nan instead of a regular wrap bread . The Nan makes a huge difference, trust me. Made me want to ask for more on the side but I refrained as what we had on the table was more than enough already. It comes with a mint sauce on the side but, I enjoyed it more with the yogurt sauce from the potato pancake. Which were very tasty too! Our server came over from time to time to bring us new drinks, refill our waters and make sure food was to our liking. So glad we didn 't listen to the guy at the hotel. As mentioned it was my first night in London, and so far it started on a great note. Definitely a place I would recommend!"

"Excellent as always. Discovered this lovely little restaurant a few months ago. It does an excellent pretheatre menu. The staff are excellent and very helpful. Food is delicious. I had a mixed tandoori grill starter which I shared with my son. The portion was excellent followed by a bhoona lamb , boiled rice and naan bread which was crispy and fluffy. Can’t recommend this wee gem of a place enough"

"Our visit to Spice Zone was a very pleasant surprise. Whilst the venue itself is very much a 'high street' Indian with basic decor and furnishings, the quality of the food was excellent with a lovely choice of both North Indian and South Indian dishes. Surinder was an excellent host and we enjoyed chatting with him during our our visit. We will definitely return"

"yesterday attended this old timepiece, the decor in the run of the years has not changed, but after I heard all the hype about the food, I was extremely disappointed. we ordered a small mix grill that was burned out when we complained to the owner (quality behind the...bar) was his answer: "they should have told us that they didn't want to do it well". I though ok, I wanted it cooked not burned, but as I didn't let it ruin the experience, so I thought I would then try the curries, so I went to the owner sohn to order on the counter) at which point I mentioned the burned grill again. this time was the answer: "oh, but they have to pay for the curry" I think the guy who thought I was after a freebie and did not recognize the burnt grill. I wanted to pay full for the curry and wanted to eat only half decent food that was not burned! as always the curry came and it was nice much better than this grill and it wasn't burned hey presto we get somewhere! so comes the cook to collect the dishes at the end. he sees the burned wings and claims, "they said it was all burned." Of course not, but these young people just didn't get it all night. frightening customer service, ambiente, burned eating, ok prices, but I wouldn't go with this shower- they go to the soho tavern instead of so much easier and better!"

"Not impressed at all. Ambience was good as expected but the food quality and noise spoiled it all. The starters were burnt (literally burnt) which you would not expect from a restaurant of this stature. The mains were luke warm at best and of ordinary preparation. Hot toddy that I ordered was far too sweet!! I complained and the manager they didn’t charge for drinks but still disappointed overall. It was not the fine dining experience that we were hoping for."

"this restaurant is a long favorite restaurant, but last year has undergone a change of owner and manager. on the august the food (crisis fried snapper and the coconut crumb part of a Caribbean menu) were very good, but the service was indifferent. all the good waiters we used to know seemed to have disappeared. when we came to pay the bill, they refused to record the order issued on our frequent customer card and refused to accept the Toptable Essscheck. not a coherent reason. so I didn't leave a tipp. I think it'll take a long time to come back. there are other good Indian restaurants like khyber in croydon."

"This has got to be the worst sizzler I have ever had! I ordered a delivery and there was burnt dried up lamb chop, some dried up chicken pieces and a prawn shell in crumbs which I'm presuming was the prawn! The keema naan was dripping in grease , it looked like it had been deep fried.. I read the reviews on here and was looking forward to my food, Big big disappointment in looks, presentation and taste... awful "

"We love our Indian and usually frequent Jamavar or Tamarind for our fix. We wanted something more authentic so we tried here. Service is so good it made you feel good about yourself to be there. Ambience is very Indian but that makes it cool we thought. The food was fresh and very tasty and wasn’t nearly as expensive as our Mayfair regular gems. We will be back here no doubt."

"The staff here are very good and very knowledgeable the food was delicious to say the least they even gave us a complimentary snack alongside a little drink the only negative I can say is the music was a little too loud for us but nothing major and the price was in my opinion fairly high This said myself and partner would definitely come back"

"I went there twice in one week. First time two females and we had delicious starters. We enjoyed it and had great service. The peshwari man was delicious. I returned with two friends on Saturday and our experience was less good. They had a big party and so understandably they had less time. We had pompodums rather than starters and so judged on mains and veg. The vegetable portions were too small and we wished we had ordered more food-very unusual for an Indian where one usually over orders! The peshwari was not nearly as nice as earlier in the week. Overall my second visit was disappointing."
