"I have never found a restaurant in London that serves truly authentic Indian food, but Hazara comes pretty close. Be prepared to spend more here than at your average Indian restaurant. Let me explain further. During my visit to India, I dined at a roadside cafe called a dhaba on the Gurgaon Sohna road, and the food was fantastic. The chicken was roasted over an old oil-drum oven, giving it a delicious toasty flavor. It was served in a rich and spicy sauce made from fresh local ingredients, creating a burst of flavors. When my friend and I asked the chef about the recipe, he simply replied, "the way I usually make it." It's difficult to replicate truly authentic Indian cuisine outside of India. While it's nice to enjoy Indian food in London, your average Indian restaurant falls short of the real deal, in my opinion. It's worth visiting India and trying different dhabas each day for a truly authentic experience. In all fairness, Hazara is making a genuine effort to capture the essence of Indian cuisine. The lamb kebab starters were delicious, and the lamb main course had a strong fenugreek flavor, unique to a particular region. The Dhal Makhani was also authentic and enjoyable. The modern and chic interior of the restaurant was a bit dull in my opinion. Perhaps adding more antiques, statues, art, and sculptures from the sub-continent could enhance the dining experience."

Excellent Indian food and amazing prices. I have been to so many so called Indian restaurants but Hazara is a real gem. Wonderful menu and tasty dishes. My fav is dora kabab and tokri chaat.

hazara was eerily empty when we are there on Monday at 7. service and eating were mixed, the biryani was especially good; a broccoli appetizer was strangely spiced and disappointing. service was great when the waiters noticed us, but they didn't notice all this often.
Annabel
Wow. This restaurant has a great location with a light and airy atmosphere. The service is good, but the real star here is the absolutely amazing food from all across India. It is on par with top restaurants like Cinnamon Club and Rasoi. Be sure to try the tookri chaat, it is the best I've ever tasted.

on a night I was looking and found this restaurant. at the entrance I was well welcomed to a beautiful and clean space. the service was very good and eating was immense, although a little expensive. I was a little disappointed that I had to pay for water, even though I was filled. all in all I would eat here again and recommend very much.

I wanted to share my thoughts on this new restaurant I recently discovered. The ambiance is beautiful, the staff is friendly, and most importantly, the food is outstanding. It's unlike any Indian restaurant I've tried before in Britain. I highly recommend the lamb and/or tandoori prawns as a starter. The dishes are delicately flavored, providing the perfect introduction to the main courses. I personally love the lamb curry and can vouch for the quality of each dish on the menu. If you have room for dessert, I suggest trying the Jaipur rosewater ice cream - it's a delicious and satisfying end to the meal, despite the reasonable bill. This restaurant offers a unique and enjoyable culinary expe...
