"ordered the veg thali (my friend had the vegan.) £17, but they don't get much for their buck. taste was pretty good, but overpriced, also for the center of london. I was not served dessert as it was specified on the menu, but we would run out of time so I don't mention it. if I return, instead of a full grain curry and rice ordering the wein, sauvignon blanc (not my favorites, anyway, but it was either that or pinot grigio) was not the best, but at least it was not expensive. I should have ordered alcohol-free drink with a good idea."

"I decided to go for a curry and order a chicken madras, pilau rice and a peshwari naan. The naan was very good, I can not deny that but the madras was tasteless with very little spice and became very watery when settled. The chicken was very dry and what appeared to be added to the sauce later on, and I only had 5 pieces. The rice was awful, bordering unhygienic! I am 99% sure it was either microwaved or left under a heating device and alot of it was lumped together and dry. To top of the dreadful food, I was served with a large Cobra that was luke warm and when I brought it to their attention they just mumbled some Indian words at me. Unless things change here, do not go. Its a waste of money. The staff were more intent on rushing me out of the door than keeping me happy, it made the whole experience possibly the worst I have had when going to an Indian restaurant. To top everything else of......they charged me 12.5% service charge."

"Another excellent trip to Anokha. It's still the best looking restaurant around and feels like a special occasion every visit. Food was again very good, as was the service. We had the usual, all of which we'd highly recommend duck tikka and sheek kebab starters; salmon tikka and lamb sag mains...."

"I booked a table at Paradise Lounge after reading some positive reviews on OpenTable, and I wasn't disappointed! The food tasted fresh, and the garlic and coriander naan had a delightful homemade flavor. I definitely plan to return and try more dishes, as my first impression was very positive. The service was great, and the evening ended on a high note with a warm smile."

"I have ordered delivery/takeout from this restaurant many times and the food quality is incredible. However, my recent dining experience was disappointing. I had made a reservation for an early dinner as I was with a pregnant friend and didn't want to keep her waiting long. Upon arrival, we waited at the door for a few minutes before being seated. We were given popadoms, but then waited for 20 minutes without menus, drinks, or a waiter in sight. I had to go find a menu myself. Feeling ignored, we decided to leave and I offered to pay for the popadoms we didn't ask for (which were surprisingly expensive at £4.95). This experience was a real letdown, especially considering the high quality of food I have received in the past from this restaurant. It seems like they should stick to what they do best and focus on takeout/delivery rather than dine-in service."

"beautiful place where we sat down, the decoration was very Moroccan and colorful. eating was amazing, there were 4 of us, so we ordered two of the plates to share as starters that were cooked to perfection. all netzen were excellent we had steaks, lammkofta and chicken kebabs all served with reischips. my only criticism would be that the service was a little on the slow side by saying that it would not stop me going back there. if they are in the opposite, I would recommend this place."

"I usually never write bad reviews as it's best to say nothing at all if you don't have anything nice to say. Also we are quite easy to please. However, this restaurant is just atrocious. Rude waitresses who didn't know what was on the menu! Rude service when pushing people out of the way to place food on the table. Orders wrong. 2 hour wait for main course and restaurant was empty. Accompaniments clearly out of a jar......one being Strawberry jam with chicken! I kid you not! Drinks spilt on guests. Food brought out at different times. The list goes on and on. Like I said, usually I don't write bad reviews but this was too poor to miss."

"This place is quite unusual and doesn't seem to know its market. The food was decent, but nothing particularly extraordinary and was overpriced for what we received. The staff were pleasant enough. However, considering the price, food quality, and atmosphere, I wouldn't choose to dine here again."

"We had a steak and ribs to start with. The ribs were fantastic, they fall off the bone and were absolutely delicious. The steak was served with a peppercorn sauce, which in my views was a bit different, but actually one of the best l have had. Overall a great place with good steaks and ribs for the meat lovers out there. The only niggle that I would have, is the smell off those ordering meat on a stone. Despite we didn’t ordered it, we did leave we the smell. However, that did ruin the experience we had. Food wise good overall a good experience. I will come back for the ribs..."

"Where to start. It’s probably best to look at the photos tbh. The ‘poppadoms and pickle tray’ was this abomination of a poppadom. Minus a pickle tray. The bhatooray (naan) was a laughable mess of half cooked whatever. The dried beef….well. Extra naan didn’t turn up. The food arrived half cold. This entire tray of food was £56. No doubt there will be a reply saying ‘we’re sorry you didn’t enjoy your food blah blah blah’ but sending this shambles out for £56 is a joke. Basically, go somewhere else."

"This is our local Indian restaurant which has a reputation for high end asian food. We have frequented it since it opened but now we feel it has dropped its ' standards largely through lack of staff training. I tried to book a table for 2 but the website wasn 't working. I rang at 10 a.m. The call was taken by a rather unprofessional individual who simply said Hello? It sounded as if I 'd woken him up! When we arrived at the restaurant we were shown to our table but no attempt was made to pull out my wife 's chair for her, so I did it whilst the waiter looked on. The table was sticky, indicative of not having been cleaned properly. Later in the evening we saw first hand that by way of cleaning, the tables were simply scraped with a crumb scraper rather than being disinfected. Cutlery was placed directly on the table nonetheless. We were handed very grubby menus. My wife 's was annotated in pen. We suspect it was for staff use. We ordered drinks immediately so that we could have a drink whilst we read the menus and made our choices. They did not arrive until the starters arrived more on the starters anon . My wife ordered a Bombay Sapphire gin and Fevertree Mediterranean Tonic. The drink finally arrived with all the tonic already added so we never saw the bottle, it could have been anything, and in any event my wife would normally only use half the tonic to avoid making the drink too diluted. For starters we ordered popadoms for one and some onion bhaji bites to share between us. We stipulated that we wanted them served at the same time for that purpose. 60 seconds later the waiter reappeared with the popadoms entreating us to be careful as the bowl was hot. I suggested that the bowl would be much cooler by the time the bhajis were ready and asked that he take them away and serve fresh popadoms with the bhajis as originally requested. The starters finally arrived together. The dips for the popadoms were very thin. Of the 3 bhaji bites 2 were undercooked and the third so undercooked as to be almost raw inside. I couldn 't eat it and asked for it to be taken away. The waiter returned to say that the chef had apologised so that 's alright then! . I suggested that a more meaningful gesture would be for us not be charged for the bhajis and indeed we were not. For her main course, my wife had the Goan Prawns. Whilst tasty, they were served in a vast sea of sauce which necessitated a trawl of the bowl to get the prawns out. I had Chicken Tikka Madras. Again, very tasty but to my mind the chicken had had only a brief relationship with the appropriate marinade and an even briefer flirtation with a tandoor. Nonetheless this variant attracted an additional charge. Throughout the meal there were no signs of attentiveness from the staff. Unused and empty glasses were not taken away without prompting and apart from the usual irritating is everything ok? , waiters and front of house staff walked by without ever casting a glance at our table to see if there was anything they could do to help. Finally, throughout the evening the waiter and the manager would refer to us as you guys . After this happened for the umpteenth time I collared the manager and told him that referring to diners in this manner might be appropriate in MacDonalds, but we didn 't care for it in a Bib Gourmand restaurant with high end pretensions. Quite incredibly, the manager had no idea what that accreditation meant, nor that the restaurant he was working in had one! Taken in isolation, you might think that our grumbles were minor. However, taken together in an establishment that used to pride itself in not being just another curry house, they are disappointing to say the least. On previous visits we have commented on the fact that asian people obviously rated the place and attended in numbers. Not so this time, there were only 16 diners in the restaurant at its peak which is not impressive on a Friday night. When we pay £75 for one and a half starters, two main courses and a couple of drinks each, we expect better."

"Su Sushi is a great restaurant that recently had a slight increase in prices, but they are still better than any other Ramen/Sushi place. Whenever my friend and I go there, someone always greets us with a friendly hello or a few nice words, as we are regulars. It's nice that sometimes it's just us, as we prefer a quieter dining experience. The closing times are convenient for us, as we can grab a bite to eat after being on the buses all day. I recommend going on an empty stomach when ordering the ramen, as the portions are large but delicious. My favorite dish is the chicken katsu ramen, while my friend enjoys the black belt. The Tokyo roll or rainbow roll are excellent choices for sushi. The menu offers a good selection of dishes that are easy to read. The only downside is that they only accept cash, so we have to make sure we have enough money before heading in."

"I visited my elderly Mum today, she suggested going to the Derby Arms for a roast dinner as she'd eaten there recently with my sister. However they were fully booked, so I looked online and found Galu. The reviews were great and my Mum has only ever heard good things from friends and neighbours. So I called and booked for 12:45 Sunday 21st Jan 2024. We were both pleasantly surprised to see roast dinners on the menu ... Mum order lamb and I ordered beef part of their set menu. When the dinners arrived, you could see straight away that the lamb was Very Fatty (not even crispy) when my my tried eating it, it was both tough and chewy! As for the beef, this was cooked ok and edible, although I asked for the beef to be medium, but it was more well done. The waiter came over to ask if the meal was ok, I highlighted how the lamb was... the manager then came over and offered my Mum a slice of beef to compensate, bearing in mind she ordered lamb. Mum subsequently found that some of her roast potatoes were hard inside! I finished my meal, but could see Mum really didn't enjoy hers leaving a substantial amount on her plate, and having tried her lamb it really was inedible! We were then offered a full list of desserts rather than the set menu, having chocolate brownie and creme brûlée (both were gorgeous) When the bill arrived, I was hoping they would have somehow made amends, but alas no ... as Mum doesn't like to cause a fuss and it was her treat, I decided not to say anything, although the staff manager could tell we weren't happy. Having come from East Sussex for the day and regularly have great Sunday roasts in local pubs, I was hoping for something special in this restaurant, but sadly that wasn't the case. In fact it's probably one of the worst roast dinners I've had in a long time. I very much doubt we'll return ..."

"I frequent different Indian restaurants for different purposes: Saravanaa Bhavan (authentic vegeterian), Dishoom (excellent chain with good quality and service), Tamarind (luxury), Brigadiers (business), Gunpowder (Hipster. Beers with friends) and of course Durbar for the past 20+ years was my 'go to ' local curry house. Unfortunately, 'Durbar ' has gone downhill very rapidly. They no longer serve alcohol (there is nothing as nice as a beer with a curry), the quality of the meat is tough, the quantity of the food is paltry, the service is non existent, the prices are sky high and the atmosphere is dire. Goodbye and RIP Durbar. Thank you for the last 20 years. It was good while it lasted."

"The food at this restaurant was excellent. I particularly enjoyed the lamb biryani and the dal makhani. The tamarind sauce served with the papadums was amazing. My friend tried the railway lamb dish and also loved it. The restaurant was packed on a Saturday night, but the service was still great. They even made a mild vegetarian curry for my wife, who really enjoyed it. Overall, a wonderful dining experience."

"this is a fairly new restaurant that had to fill large shoes. sabor the previous restaurant was delicious and lively. I don't want to be part of the unoing of this restaurant, but it has to go better. the service, although friendly, was disappointing. the gentleman who served us did not seem to know the menu. eating was bland and overall this was not a good culinary experience. there is no joy to write about it, but if diners participate with their hard earned money, they should know."

"the Cuban is a small restaurant in the high street and is perfect if they are looking for from a change from the typical English but still a bit of stone offer of sandwiches, almost food and fish chips. as they would expect, serves the Cuban food, but the decoration and atmosphere are what really they feel as if they were on the other side of the earth. we liked the tapas especially while we had cocktails. the cheese croquettes and the chili con carne with tortillas were excellent and not excessively rich. the prices are appropriate; there were about 11 pounds for an appetizer, entree and glass wein. it is a good place to change the landscape without breaking the bank."

"eating was very good, but service slow. my man had the lamb aprons that arrived as 3 instead of 4 when the 4th finally came, he said they were very tasty, but the dish was still small for an adult and for the price! I would say that eating is good, tasty and fresh, but it is over price for what they receive and the equipment of the restaurant is quite dated. After I said all that, I would recommend and probably come back, maybe a statement of this review was accepted."
