“Subtle, aromatic and utterly delicious food” based around “family recipes” are on the menu at this unusual, family-run Indian café decked out with vintage Bollywood posters, on the outer fringe of South Kensington. “I just don’t understand how this place isn’t better known”, it’s a “real gem”.

For 32 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
