Summary
“From the amuse bouche and blue cheese naan onwards, we were blown away!” – this “impeccable” Mayfair spin-off from a famous New Delhi venture is in contention as “the best-of-the-best of London’s new wave of fine dining Indians”: “maintaining classic, traditional flavours” but with “an impressive balance of refinement and power” to create “deliciously tantalising” dishes. Service is “patient” and “warmly welcoming”, while the interior – though certainly “smart” and “tastefully understated” – can also seem “very stereotypically Mayfair”, or “too businessy”.
Summary
“Quite simply, stunning – the best sub-continental cuisine you can get anywhere outside the subcontinent!” This “addictive” newcomer (a spin-off from one of India’s top restaurants, in New Delhi, with an NYC sibling) occupies the same site (and is under the same ownership) as its predecessor Chor Bizarre (RIP) and has made an “astonishingly good” debut with “very refined and skilful” fusion cuisine (blue cheese naan, for instance) that’s already achieved nigh on the highest ratings in town – “slick service” and svelte decor: “it’s a real joy to eat here”.
Summary
On the former site of Chor Bizarre (RIP, but from the same owner, Old World Hospitality) – another nouvelle Indian restaurant with sibling venues in New York and New Delhi. The New Delhi original is on the World’s 50 Best List.

Indian Accent Restaurant Diner Reviews
"Terrific, beautifully spiced and original top end Indian - rather full of large tables of businessmen on the night we went which rather destroyed any ambience, but still loved the food."
"The cuisine is exceptionally interesting both for the taste and the combination of flavours. Absolutely recommended . The service is too slow for such a kind of restaurant. "
"Exquisite food with generally speaking Mayfair prices. New lunch option is a bargain and is available at weekends. Perhaps the best Indian meal I have ever had."
"exceptional food and service."
"good Indian food but seriously overpriced - there are other indian restaurants in London which do better food."
"Excellent throughout but at such a price. Reviews should be made relating to 'at that price bracket'. Is there another Indian restaurant in London in this price bracket?"
"Pre prepared food very limited menu disappointing nothing special"
"We were disappointed by the service above all. As a large party we had arranged a set menu and they seem to have forgor=tten about it leading to deep disappointment. So great food let down by a disorganized team."
