Handily tucked away off Trafalgar Square, this popular venture presents an Indian restaurant in the style of a wood-panelled London chophouse. Rated well all-round, fans say it’s “worth the journey just for the crispy lamb chops” (and “the chicken is a highlight, too”).

“Tandoor as it is meant to be”, with “bursts of authentic, deep and rich smoky flavours”, earns an emphatic thumbs-up for this “energetic” operation just off Trafalgar Square. The “menu is limited but compelling, with bold and memorable spicing”, “mouthwatering chicken and duck” and “well made naan”, while “desserts are the weakest element”.

“Buzzy” Anglo-Indian hybrid in a “perfect central location” just off Trafalgar Square that serves “tapas-sized selections of delicious Indian food to share”; there’s “not a huge choice”, but there are “plenty of vegetarian options”. An offshoot in Notting Hill is no longer in operation.

"Chicken dish was a particular highlight but a number of the other dishes were expensive for what they were. Service and ambience however were very good "
