Venue was cosy and the service was quick. Ordered the veg platter and it was quite tasty but not very generous with the portions. The broccoli was quite hard but the rest of the food was good

Excellent and authentic biryani, especially when accompanied by karak chai. The quality of food and service are excellent. Although a small place, does not feel noisy. Great service too.

All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Lovely menu, clearly well thought out. The food was absolutely beautiful and super tasty. I had the veg platter which was stunning. My friend the lamb biryani which she said was melt in the mouth tender. Good value for money and good portion sizes, especially in Leicester Square. Will definitely eat there again.

The food was great but the service was terrible. We waited an hour to get any food despite notifying staff multiple times and other guests that arrived later than us receiving both starters and main courses before we received anything. The manager then tried to blame the chef.

Excellent food and service. Although the restaurant is small and tight to move around, this is typical for Soho and actually gives a cosy feel. I really enjoyed the authenticity of the food. I would definitely want to go back.
