Kidmore End, Indian Restaurant Guide

“A revelation and, given the mass of chains in Reading, a wonderful surprise” – Nandana and Sharat Syamala’s “full-on” subcontinental blends “decidedly different” dishes from Andhra and Hyderabad, the two South Indian regions from which they hail; its many fans claim it turns out the “best Indian food, period” (“rich, fragrant and mind-blowing”, “original” and “ultimately good value”, too). There’s also a roaring takeaway service (partly owing to the muted atmosphere), and even those who think it “a bit over the top to order Indian food from Reading (where the restaurant moved in 2024) rather than buy from the local Indian” report it’s “definitely worth it” if you do.
