"I've eaten here a few times with my partner and always been blown away by the food, so for my birthday this year I thought I'd arrange a meal with some friends to share the deliciousness with loved ones. Big mistake. The restaurant clearly don't want to cater for large parties (there were 12 adults and 4 kids in our group . We booked an early table at 5pm to make this easier for the restaurant and free up the space for evening diners. From the moment of our arrival we were treated with utter contempt, bits of our order never turned up, drinks took ages to arrive. When it came to leaving, we were told we had underpaid by £25 but previously the waitress had said we had completely covered before I'd even paid my portion so the £25 I paid for my meal was essential the tip (way more than 10% . The hostile manager wouldn't let us leave and insisted we pay the missing money plus a tip. After we left we checked all our receipts (though most of us paid in cash , added them up and saw we had indeed been swindled. I am genuinely devastated because I have loved eating here until this point, but I won't be going back because of the way we were treated. If you are a solo diner or couple then please do visit because the food is absolutely out of this world, but if you are a large party please avoid the awful experience I was unfortunate to have at the hands of such a grumpy man completely devoid of human kindness (who really shouldn't be front of house ."

"Mumbai is all here and the best part you don 't need any aircraft to land you here if you are in London!!!!! All that you have to do is come to this restaurant after fasting a day before as your stomach will to need that place to fit all the delicious food they serve here in beautifully garnished and plated. To start with AMBIENCE Simple still classy. relaxed , friendly and family oriented ambience!! A very impressive wall depicting a picture of colourful India. A very neat and tidy seating arrangement and all clean. FOOD Authentic Indian food ! To start with the choice of drinks proper indian drinks options other than mango lassi usually the only indian drink found in maximim restaurents like chaas and jal jeera . Go for these i loved them! Ragda pattice, bhelpuri, pani puri, chhole bhature, misal pav all were simply awsome. Specially the way they are plated in a creative way. Do not forget to order faluda in dessert menu.......i had one of my best faluda i ever had!! Visit this place again and again specially to have its Faluda a very famous and rich in flavours dessert of India topped up with rose syrup . SERVICE The staff is very friendly though they are less in number to serve during busy days. The service might be slow. I had to remind them again and again for a simple water. This is why i ranked 4.5 instead of complete 5. Need to pay bit attention on service! COST A bit more towards higher end but the taste covers it all. It cost approx £35 £40 for two. In a NUTSHELL an absolute delight if you are a PURE VEGETATRIAN and a chaat lover like me ; ."
