"Had a table booked in to Jikoni for brunch. As you can see, the place looks lovely, very “instagrammable”, and the food ‘photographs’ well too. But that’s as good as it gets. It’s a relatively expensive restaurant but the quality of the food and the service, does not reflect that. Portions are tiny, pork belly (named bacon on the menu) is dry, and the “banana bread” is actually sticky toffee pudding. Regardless, they all tasted good, the only argument would be that the “bacon” needs a sauce as it’s very dry. Generally all dishes, even the teas are overpriced. Definitely does not reflect in the quality. Now for the service….all waitresses were very polite. But it reminds of a corner coffee shop. All the staff seem to be very clumsy, prone to dropping/spilling things, and generally badly trained. All of the above, do not translate to a value for money experience. I could not recommend this restaurant as the service is lacking, the food tastes ok, but overpriced and the portions are tiny. Overall left feeling disappointed and ripped off."

My main course, a baked cod dish, arrived with the cod nearly raw and the accompanying vegetables were cold.

Definitely the best ever culinary experience I’ve had in an Indian restaurant. Situated in a delightful part of Marylebone. We were a party of 10 and all were well satisfied. Many of the starters we had just explode in the mouth with complex tastes and spices. Service was impeccable. Well worth the higher price bracket. If you want to experience Ravinder’s authentic recipes it’s s must.

Jikoni is a pleasant dining spot in Marylebone with outdoor seating. I tried the chickpea sticks and the butternut squash curry. The chickpea sticks were delicious, seasoned with Indian spices. The butternut squash curry was decent, but needed more flavor as I had to add a lot of salt. Unfortunately, some popular menu items were not available during lunch, so I plan to return to try them. The menu clearly labels vegan options. The staff was friendly.

I have to say I was deeply disappointed in this restaurant, especially as I looked it up and recommended it myself as the menu seemed so interesting and reviews were stellar. What we found was, the most splendid thing was the decor, as the food and my honeydew melon cocktail did not get us going, at all. We ordered trout with sourdough and expected a slender full ish bodied fish with generous bread offering instead we got raw fish (my dear friend is not a fan of that) and tiny bits of toasted sourdough. Not happy! As for the aubergine rice, it was perfectly fine but boring. I get a hundred times better at Chinatown for a fraction of the price. Because it was edible and I didn't have to pick...
