The food here is lovely, with a great mix of South Indian dishes, North Indian favourites and some tasty Indo‑Chinese options.
I especially enjoy their curries, particularly the palak paneer and rajma masala, and I really appreciate that they are happy to customise them to make them spicier 🌶️ to suit my taste.
Their mango lassi is so tasty as well.
However, the service can sometimes feel a bit unfriendly; one of the ladies taking orders (I’m sorry, I’ve forgotten her name but I think there is only one
) often seems very serious and not particularly helpful when ordering, which does take away slightly from an otherwise enjoyable experience.
On the plus side, their cleaning staff are very polite and friendly.
Went on a not so crowded Tuesday afternoon, so there may be different experiences when it is busier. But damn... this is legitimately one of the best Indian restaurants I've ever been to. I had the tamarind rice and the five mini utthapums... both tasted fresh and amazing, I even told the manager that the tamarind rice tasted just like my late grandmothers (true!). And it is an affordable meal as well, even accounting for the price to get to and from central London.
Service may be different on a busier day. But the food was five stars without hyperbole, and to me, that's worth it.
We recently dined at Taste of India Veg Restaurant and had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious, freshly prepared, and full of authentic flavours. We ordered Paneer Butter Masala, Dal Tadka, Butter Roti, and Butter Garlic Naan, and every dish was rich, creamy, and perfectly seasoned.
The highlight of our meal was the Gobi Dry Manchurian starter – absolutely outstanding with the perfect balance of spice and crispiness. It set the tone for what turned out to be an exceptional meal.
The service was warm, polite, and attentive, making the entire experience even more enjoyable. Overall, a fantastic place for anyone who loves Indian vegetarian cuisine. Highly recommended, and we will definitely be returning!
Great place for vegetarians! Menu is quite long and have lot of options to eat! I ordered chola bhatura and it was delicious. Satisfying overall! I also ordered Gulab Jamun as a dessert and was served hot, so very authentic!
We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience at Taste of India. The culinary offerings were exceptionally prepared, presenting a delightful array of flavors. Furthermore, the pricing provided excellent value, making the meal quite affordable. We were very pleased with the overall quality and taste of the dishes. It is a highly recommended establishment for anyone seeking delicious Indian cuisine.
A lot of families in on a Sunday. It’s a bustling place but the servers do keep on top of everything.
The food is very good. I got a Punjabi thali and every curry was excellent. I wasn’t a massive fan of the mixed veg curry and left that. All the others were really good. The only issue I had (and it’s very specific to my tastes) was that the portion of rice was huge and you only got 1 chappati. It would be better to offer a choice as I ordered a second chappati (at extra cost) and didn’t eat any of the rice. It felt a shame to waste it all but I had no choice. I think it would be a better option to offer the choice to customers - that would improve the diner experience as well as reducing food waste.
I had a great experience at this restaurant. Everything is pure vegetarian, which I really appreciated. I tried the masala dosa, and it was amazingand criispy and full of flavor. The real highlight for me was the paneer butter masala, which was absolutely outstanding and the most amazing dish I had there. Overall, everything was delicious, fresh, and truly enjoyable.
Honestly, best and authentic and “homemade” style Indian food. Feels and tastes like home cooked meals. Highly recommended for anyone traveling to London and wants great Indian food. Not one of your fancy fusion style seen in the big cities.
