Harden's survey result
Summary
“We are so lucky to have such a great restaurant on our doorstep!” – Rajesh Suri’s (who managed Mayfair’s Tamarind for 14 years) “exceptional local” is “a far cry from your usual Indian restaurant, so any extra expense is worth it” for the “delicious and unusual flavours, all well presented”. “Glad I live in E18!”
Summary
“A wonderful nugget of culinary excellence” in deepest Woodford, just off London’s own ‘grand trunk’ (the North Circular), this is the first solo venture from Rajesh Suri, a veteran of top-drawer Indian cuisine who managed Tamarind in Mayfair. “You can feel, sense and taste the passion not only in the extraordinary food, but in the ambience and attention to detail”. “It gets better on every visit” – and offers “superb vegetarian options”.
Summary
“An exceptional local” – this Woodford four-year-old (from the ex-manager and ex-head chef of Mayfair’s Tamarind) delivers “a real treat of modern, well-spiced food”, and draws fans from north London to Essex. On the downside, the “noisy” room “could be more cosy”.

“An exceptional local” – this Woodford three-year-old (from the ex-manager and ex-head chef of Mayfair’s Tamarind) delivers “a real treat of modern, well-spiced food”, and draws fans from north London to Essex. On the downside, the “noisy” room “could be more cosy”.
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).
