Best Indian Restaurants in Highbury/Islington

Lovely place to eat! My fave Indian restaurant. I always visit, if I’m in the area. The meals are always full of flavour and don’t drop in standards. The people are always kind and super attentive.

Seasonal changes to the menu make this restaurant fun to visit often. We had aubergine with a mustard sauce: enjied by the whole table. Likewise the chole batura: not greasy nor acrid as often can be the case. Uppatam was well received too. The date pancake was enjoyed as was the riff on ras malai. The latter deconstructed and remade as a cake like sponge imbued with ras malai sauce, topped with a crunchy crumble. A novel twist that was a pleasure. Service was excellent, as usual.

We had a great evening excellent food and service. Thank you.

Would recommend, wine on the expensive side but a very enjoyable experience!

This was our first visit but now will be our go to restaurant for delicious Indian food. We chose it as we were meeting friends who were traveling through Kings Cross. I didn’t mention when booking that I am disabled and they had placed us downstairs which is difficult for me but a table on the entrance floor quickly became available and we were sat there and they found a place to park my walker. The waiter quickly gave us menus and served us drinks. Lovely choices on the menu and we ordered an assortment of dishes to share. All of the food was excellent. Good size portions too. The waiters were attentive and friendly and quite entertaining. It’s a busy place . Some just pop in for a quick snack and others for full meals like us. I would highly recommend this restaurant..
