Birkenhead, Indian Restaurant Guide

2022 Review: Born in 2019, a Liverpool branch of the Manchester- and Leeds-based street food chain that “specialises in Indian vegetarian food and craft beers. It’s always good, lively, and popular” and “very good value” too.

Ex-barrister Nisha Katona is nowadays one of the UK’s foremost restaurateurs on the success of her national chain, of which this “welcoming” and still mega-popular street-food café in a converted former bank was the original (and celebrates its tenth year in 2024). “Always a good choice for all the family: even the young ones will try the food here” – “a very different take on Indian food, including some Indo-Chinese dishes that don’t normally get much of an airing”. Top Menu Tips – “favourite items include Gunpowder Chicken, Maa’s Lamb Chops, Butter Chicken and House Lamb Curry… the cocktails are definitely worth trying too”.
