The hotel is also very welcoming to dogs."

"when I ate years ago on vegetarian rasa, and then on the fish rasa recently, they were revealing. a South Indian cuisine that did interesting things with unknown ingredients. this rasa, on the other hand, is not particularly regional or particularly original. where are the sweet: the okra, the aubergine, the green? Why do we have boneless white meat huh (i.e. the dry, tasteless part,) hard lamb and so on (although the fish was not bad)."

"Went here towards the end of July on a date with my girlfriend. She had never tried Indo/Chinese food before, and I am huge fan so I was excited to bring her somewhere where it seemed to look great online. It did not disappoint, I was a bit apprehensive reading the reviews before I went as there were so many bad, but I am so happy this didn't put me off, if you're looking for more traditional Indian food, this isn't the restaurant for you (although they do have a few options. The only reason this didn't get a full five stars, because although the strawberry mojito was perfect in taste, the mint used for garnish was dying and it didn't look very nice. The garnish should always be fresh. However, I will reinstate the cocktail was delicious! We definitely over ordered, however we were able to take the rest that we didn't finish home so win win! Things that we ordered : Manchow Soup with chicken (this was my girlfriends favourite, its sooo tasty! Salt and Pepper Okra, Kuna Pao Potato (this is my personal favourite!! Kung Pao Chicken, Tai Pai Prawn, Veg Hakka Noodles, Vegetable Rice. I really wanted to ordered Chicken Lollipops as I have had these before and I love them, however I couldn't finish what we had already order let alone ordering more. I really enjoyed the food, even if I did finish a bottle of water because of the spice, spicy but an enjoyable spice. I will 100% be back again, as this has fully lived up to my expectations and I am excited to have more friends try the food. They got busier towards the end with big tables, and lots of telephone orders."

"Extremely fresh ingredients, amazing taste. They had one of the best naans I had in London. Definitely worth a visit. Service was very friendly, although the staff did look a bit confused at times but it didn’t cause a problem. The ambience is also great, you can feel that this place really has history."

"This restaurant has seating for about 15 people. There is only one staff member working, so service is slow. There is no air conditioning. The prices here are 25% cheaper than Kaspas, but the quality at Kaspas was better. This place serves ice rolls, but they are not as good as the ones at Kaspas."

"We had booked a table a few days ago, but when we arrived at the time with our guests, it was not fixed. The problem was solved quickly and did not depart from an excellent dinner. The choice of dishes and styles here is excellent and the staff was able to help us in our decisions. When it arrived, the food was generous and well presented and hot (at temperature) and the various dishes were excellently spiced and well balanced – just what we expected. From the starters, the Scallops Hariyali and the Chilli Prawns were wonderful. Of the nets were the Chicken Xacuti and Tandoori Sampler of special touch, but our other appetizers and nets were all delicious. Prices are what you would expect for a restaurant of such location, you can check the menu on the website. Excellent service, friendly and helpful staff, delicious food, pleasant ambience, highly recommended."

"Mahdi is my go-to place in the neighbourhood when I want to stuff myself silly with the Persian delights available with them especially served as a delectable, generous buffet. It has great location, just as you take the first right turn from Finchley road station, towards Canfield Gardens. Hard to miss, being, in a sense, next door to the massive Waitrose (not its entrance side but the left one). Its buffet that I speak of with such overwhelming love is something available seven days a week, during lunch hours. Mahdi’s interiors are beautiful – warm and mesmerising – lovely stained glass work, even better tile work, traditional warm-toned cushions and on the walls, haunting prints of Persian-styled paintings, right out of Rubaiyat as if!!! The buffet is an unlimited spread with different items every time. I have eaten off their a la carte menu as well – some of those items naturally feature in the buffet from time to time. These usually include some sort of barbecued meats mainly CHELOV KEBABS with lamb and/or chicken; HOMOUS; MAST-O-KHYAR (like a raita with cucumbers); KHORESH GORMEH SUBZI (which is a lamb and bean stew with an amazing kick from the whole preserved limes); to be eaten with either fresh NAN bread or ZERESKH POLO which is the typical Iranian pilaf dish garnished with the tart zereskh berries etc. For the superior grade of food available at Mahdi, I think it is remarkably competitively priced as well. To do full justice to the buffet, I need to always ensure that I have literally fasted before turning up here and that I have kept the afternoon free so that I can curl up and catch a nice afternoon nap after the heavenly meal one is always ensured one will have at Mahdi."

"I hope that this was just a one-off mistake. When my delivery arrived, three out of the five items were extremely cold, almost as if they had just come out of the fridge. The one hot item seemed to have been microwaved poorly. We ended up only eating the tarka dahl and chips, as they were the only hot items, and they were okay. However, I can't overlook the fact that the rest of our £30 order wasn't up to par. I won't be ordering from here again and I'm hesitant to visit the restaurant in person."

"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"

"We had a wonderful experience at the restaurant. The staff was incredibly friendly and professional. The view of the Thames just outside the window was lovely. We opted for the tasting menu, which was delicious. However, I must admit that our tastes are more aligned with French and cosmopolitan cuisine, so we didn't fully appreciate all the flavor combinations. This is entirely due to our limited experience with Indian fine dining, and not a reflection on the restaurant's efforts—they executed everything perfectly! The lamb dish was exceptional, practically melting in the mouth. Overall, if you enjoy Indian cuisine and fine dining, you really can't go wrong here."

"This is by far the best restaurant I have dined at. Went there for a business lunch and returned for dinner with friends. The chef does not disappoint. Each dish is served in style and the flavors are simply outstanding. It is hards to be innovative with South Indian cuisine, but this place makes it look easy. Dosa with mince stuffing that has a touch of lemongrass... or pineapple rasam with coconut foam... or the chat with lemon foam canapés. Every dish was amazing. Highly recommended. This place is a gem!"

"we had an absolutely AMAZING night with julia and her fabulous team at walkers of whitehall. I can't sing her lob enough. we were a group of 34 and we booked the downstairs bar for our annual Choir dinner. we felt so looked around all night, the personal could simply not do enough for us. julia answered all my asking super fast and when there was a light mix-up with the drinks packages on the group menu, she threw them free in two extra bottles of wine. the team thought of everything and even connected my iphone so that we can have our own playlist. the food was exceptional and very good value for the price; I was particularly impressed by the nicely cooked steak! the food was overthrown by court as brought out, but this was completely expected for a group of our size and not distracted from our night at all. I had brought four large numbers of balloons and other decorations, and the personal agreed very kindly to dispose of them so I didn't have to worry about. all in all it was a wonderful night for the annual dinner of our group and in such an amazing location and we loved the vaulted bar. everyone who came told me how brilliant a venue it was. I'm coming back in a definitiw! thanks for all of them at walkers for a fantastic night."

"Twelve of us went for dinner on a Saturday night at 7pm. The ground floor was mostly full and the upstairs dining area was closed. It seemed like the service was slower than usual, possibly due to short staff. The waiting staff were nice and polite, but there just weren't enough of them. However, the food was excellent, with very tasty and authentic dishes. I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be coming back to eat here again. It's also been added to my list of places to order takeout from."

"Every year we go on holiday to the Peak District and our first meal out is always at The Shalimar. Everything about this restaurant is amazing, they have a real passion for the food they serve, always tasy dishes and generous portions. They are professional, friendly and the atmosphere inside the restaurant is cosy. We can't wait for our holiday next year so that we can come back! Food: 5"

"The variety of food and quality was outstanding. We didn’t have a reservation and it was a busy Saturday evening but they found us a table quickly. We had a cocktail first at the bar which, like the main restaurant, had a buzzy vibe, full of young people but not intimidating for us slightly older! The price point is spot on and both myself and my husband loved, loved, loved the lamb chops best ever. The service was attentive and we will definitely be back although if we bring friends we will ask for a table in the conservatory as it’s quieter so more conducive to chatting."

"This wasn’t our first visit (the previous occasion was more positive than this) but this was really quite poor. Problem after problem, service was poor and just not very welcoming. Firstly, drinks weren’t available issues with draft, but then bottles weren’t available either. So there was a very limited selection of drinks on offer and the staff weren’t proactive in advising what was available. So it was request and receive a no! Secondly, the food was poor. The starters were shocking. Really quite bad. There was a bit of redemption from some of the mains, but we elected to not proceed with anything else as it wasn’t great. We had to wait ages for drinks and foods to arrive despite the fact that the restaurant was practically empty and many staff present. Frequently there were 3 staff at the back of the room standing about chatting, but they weren’t attentive to our needs. They didn’t check around the room to see if guests required additional drinks or require plates clearing. They didn’t check to see how the food was and when we complained regarding a starter they simply didn’t know how to handle it. When the draft beer came back on there was no proactive behaviour in returning to the table and letting us know so that more drinks could be ordered. Drinks were poured in wrong glasses, plates were cleared whilst people were still eating and then not cleared when they needed to be! Simply put the staff working had no idea on what table service should be perhaps they had received no training which is a major failing when the restaurant is part of a hotel. It was not welcoming. The restaurant was freezing cold. The service was really very poor and the food disappointing. They also don’t take dogs which in Aldeburgh is a bit weird. There is plenty of space and the tables are large so they would not be in the way. We won’t be returning."

"Had a party here recently (renting out the top floor) and can't thank the venue and staff enough for a fantastic evening. Leading up to the event, they were really responsive answering all our questions promptly and everything was completely transparent. On the night itself, the staff were brilliant and fun, the venue itself is absolutely lovely and very photogenic (bonus points for the stage) my only minor critique is to be able to have the music a bit louder but 10/10 evening would recommend to anyone."

"Stopped off for a cheeky curry prior to catching the train home. Party of six all enjoyed the food and drinks. Poppadoms to start were excellent. For my main i had the chicken jalfrezi with garlic nan and rice. All dishes were well prepared and piping hot. Nice touch providing free drinks at the end, whisky and baileys or if youre particularly fussy 'extra after eight mints '.. Very friendly staff... Would return...."

"The food was fantastic, however it was disappointing that they were completely inflexible with something simple like replacing Ox Cheek with Chicken for a vindaloo meaning one of our diners couldn 't have a vindaloo. The next request should be simple for ANY kitchen with no major changes to a sauce/dish. PLEASE COULD YOU MAKE DISH 'X ' VERY HOT? Nope, it came out what was, I guess, standard. At the end of the meal we were left with the dessert menus for around 20 minutes with nobody coming back and had to get the attention of someone as they were going to the kitchen. Shame the low service levels let it down, and really, do you have to go over 5x price on a standard bottle of wine? I expect to pay a lot more that retail but don 't take the P!"
