Nandana & Sharat Syamala are moving their Hyderabadi kitchen into new premises in Caversham after their “great eatery” and growing national delivery service outgrew its original London Street site on the back of rave reviews. The new, part-crowdfunded venue is a former Wetherpoons pub, the Baron Cadogan, is to give the couple sufficient space to run a ‘fine-dining’ restaurant as well as a separate open kitchen with bar counter for snacks, small plates and street food, plus eight beers from local brewers. As of October 2022, both the original address and national delivery are closed as they focus all their efforts on the move.

Nandana & Sharat Syamala share kitchen duties at this “colourfully decorated” Hyderabadi outfit – a big hit locally since its 2018 opening. The “thoughtful, lovingly crafted dishes exploding with flavour” mean it's “definitely not an after-the-boozer local Indian”, but rather an “absolute treat!” even when sober.

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).
