Harden's survey result
Summary
“Absolutely flawless…”, “exceptional and memorable…”, “consistently superb” – the superlatives just keep coming for JKS Restaurants’ original venture, which scores just as highly as its sibling, Gymkhana, even if the latter is much better known nowadays. It’s a cosy and “upscale” experience, set in quirky U-shaped premises, off Marylebone High Street, and enlivened by “discreet and friendly” staff. Top Menu Tips – “don’t leave without trying the lamb chops”; “mushroom biryani is a standout”; and “crazy as it may sound for a mere piece of bread, the duck keema naan is a real highlight.”
Summary
“Simply brilliant food that just blows your socks off” – “posh curry, but not too mucked about with” – continues to wow at JKS restaurant’s original Marylebone venture, which remains one of London’s top destinations for “top notch” Indian cuisine. (“Excellent home delivery meal boxes” are also a feature.) Its modestly sized, U-shaped premises are slightly constrained by their layout, but for most reporters the effect is “lovely and intimate”.
Summary
“Original, flavour-packed and utterly delicious” – the cuisine at Karam Sethi’s original Marylebone venture (the first in the JKS stable) is a fine homage to the Mumbai venue from which it takes its name, and even if “sister-restaurant Gymkhana has the edge” nowadays, it remains one of the capital’s top Indian destinations. It’s “really buzzy when full” (to an extent one or two reporters find “disturbing” of enjoyment).

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).

Trishna Restaurant Diner Reviews
"Reliable "
"Not as challenging to get a table as at Gymkhana, but the food is up there with its sister"
"A very pleasant place to eat. The early evening menu is very good value but one generally has to ask for this menu, it isn’t often offered. Although beautifully spiced and v enjoyable, this food has never really felt like eating Indian food, not sure why."
