"Roz Ana is a hidden gem tucked away in the heart of the city. As an avid lover of Indian cuisine, my dining experience at this restaurant was truly delightful. From the moment I stepped in, the warm and inviting ambiance instantly transported me to a world of authentic Indian flavors. The staff at Roz Ana was incredibly attentive and friendly. They greeted us with genuine smiles and promptly escorted us to our table. Our server was well-versed in the menu, providing insightful suggestions while accommodating our dietary preferences. As for the food, it was an absolute feast for the senses! Every dish we ordered was meticulously crafted, presenting a perfect blend of spices and flavors. The variety on the menu left us spoilt for choice, and we ended up ordering the Chicken Tikka Masala, Lamb Biryani, and Paneer Butter Masala. Each dish was prepared to perfection, with the chicken and lamb being delightfully tender and succulent. The presentation of the food was also visually pleasing, showcasing the care and attention given to every detail. The portion sizes were generous, ensuring we left with satisfied palates and content stomachs. Additionally, the restaurant didn't compromise on authenticity; the flavors were true to traditional Indian cuisine while also offering a modern twist. What sets Roz Ana apart from other Indian restaurants is its commitment to catering to vegetarian and vegan diners. The extensive vegetarian options on the menu impressed me, highlighting the restaurant's dedication to inclusivity. The only reason I'm not giving a five-star rating is the slightly inflated prices. While the quality and taste of the food were top-notch, it would have been more affordable to dine here regularly if the prices were a tad lower. However, considering the overall experience and the high-quality ingredients used, it's understandable why they command a premium. My conclusion, Roz Ana is the perfect place to satisfy your craving for Indian cuisine. Whether you're a regular fan or an adventurous newcomer, this restaurant guarantees a cultural and culinary experience that will leave a lasting impression. Despite the slightly higher prices, I will definitely be returning to indulge in the rich flavors and warm atmosphere again!"

"To my surprise, many restaurants are closed on Sunday evening in London. Every time I looked up a vegan restaurant on Happy Cow, it turned out it was closed. Since it was late and I was hungry, I had no other option than to select a vegetarian restaurant close by. 1947 Restaurant and Bar is both an Indian and Italian restaurant. The entire menu is vegetarian, however only around 20% is vegan. Many more meals can be made vegan, but so many of them had cheese listed as an ingredient that I didn 't want to run the risk. What if there 's an error in communication between the waitress and the kitchen? Or what if the chef accidentally adds cheese out of habit? I had lots of time to make up my mind, because even though the restaurant was very quiet it took a long time until the waitress came to take my order. I selected vegan biryani because I like biryani and because I 've tried it at so many restaurants that it 's easy to compare. It took a long time for the biryani to be prepared, but then it was served beautifully and smelled divine (as it should be). However, compared to other restaurants it 's a rather simple biryani. It has only one kind of rice (it is often served with both white and yellow rice) and only a few vegetables. There was no tofu, mushroom, potato, no nuts or any protein source. Also, the yoghurt was missing (which is used to extinguish the fire caused by the spices). The portion was generous and the taste was good. Although it was mentioned on the menu, 1947 Restaurant and Bar adds a 12.5% service tax. Why don 't restaurants just increase all prices on the menu instead of giving the customers a nasty surprise at the end?"

"I heard about this place from a friend. He said it was Nepalese cuisine. I got curious. I know Nepal shares a lot in common with India, in terms of culture. But didn't know what was different in terms of food. So I decided to check it out. Went their with my wife, a pure vegetarian. She knew she would find something there as it was Nepalese. Any culture with a bit of Hindu influence serves proper, pure vegetarian dishes that are spicy and full of flavour and aroma. Salads are the last thing that an Indian vegetarian would prefer to have for lunch or dinner. So now you know why there are so many vegetarians in India. We took a good look at the menu. There were familiar names and there were some totally unheard of items which we knew had to be authentic Nepalese. So we tried jogi tarkari, an unusual vegetable curry with mushrooms, cottage cheese, spinach, green peas, beans, chick peas and potatoes. The aforementioned items aren't usually mixed together in one dish in India. So this sounded weird but tasted really good, which was what we wanted after all. We also tried the biryani. It was different again but delicious. They usually serve biryani with mutter (green peas masala on the side. But I thought I'd try some Raita (indian version of greek tzatziki, but spicy and less thicker . The biryani was brilliant. But I quickly realized that the raita they serve in the restaurant used sweet yoghurt as the base, which tasted more like dessert than a side for biryani. When asked why Nepalese has sweet raita to the waiter, he said it was only for British people. If I had requested for normal raita they would have served the non-sweet version. If only I knew that the version they were going to serve me, a brown man with an Indian accent, the British version of Nepalese Raita. I couldn't have made myself any more obvious. Anyways, they had their reasons. And hence we saved money on desserts by not buying anything else. It is a classy restaurant, prices are reasonably high. Great quality of service and lots of drinks available. They do buffets for lunch on weekends (I'm not aware of other days which comes with naan, vegetarian and non vegetarian starters, sweet chutney and spicy chutney, rice, vegetarian (daal [lentils] and aloo palak [potatoes and spinach] and non vegetarian (lamb and chicken curries for 9.95 per person. It is a bargain! I totally recommend. If you like spicy do mention that when giving your orders, you don't want to be served sweets instead of curries."

"Pure Indian Cooking delivers a contemporary, modern and innovative take on Indian cooking and cuisine. A welcoming environment in which to tantalise your taste buds with an eye catching menu offering a broad variety of dishes at a medium spice level designed to appeal to all tastes. Spacious yet ambient in its restaurant offering; the first thing you notice is the use of colours and textures in their decor. Coupled with the delectable aromas and friendly staff you settle in easily. The use of different textures is also apparent in the dishes that are prepared in the kitchen. We started with the papad, crudités and chutneys before moving on to a trio of starters including the crispy chilli fried squid, pounded coriander and goat's cheese samosa served with a trio of tomato, mint and beetroot chutneys and patra chaat. The patra chaat is a revelation; a crispy, multi textured salad of colocasia leaves with yoghurt, date and tamarind chutney, pomegranate, onion and tomato. It is a real dazzle to the senses and should be ordered just to try something special. The chilli squid is delicious and the generous portion size is appreciated as they are so moreish. The samosas are a mouthwatering feat; crispy pastry and delicious filing served with chutneys that elevate and bind together these flavours. Moving on to the main course we knew a treat lay ahead; the main courses offered included game meats such as duck and venison. Additionally, there are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and seafood prawns, crab, halibut and cod dishes. We indulged (there is no other way to describe it! in halibut cafreal, halibut cooked in green masala served with fried potato managalorean chicken, succulent pieces of chicken cooked with coconut and byadgi chillies and lamb sukke maharastrian style lamb cooked in dry spices which is one of Pure's more spicy dishes. Accompanied by lasooni palak creamy spinach with brown garlic and dry fenugreek leaves, steamed rice and the lightest buttery naan. The mangalorean chicken is simply delicious with the softest, juiciest chicken smothered in a perfectly balanced creamy yet rich coconut sauce. The lamb is rich and flavoursome with just the right amount of heat to be a complement to the chicken. The Lasooni palak proved to be some of the creamiest spinach I have ever tried and is definitely worth an order! Pure Indian Cooking is a fresh take on Indian food that is enticing, interesting and a breath of fresh air. This restaurant, a mere stone's throw away from Parsons Green's station offers you a restaurant and a take away option that is a welcome treat for every day of the week."
