3. Sindhu
Indian restaurant in Marlow
The Compleat Angler - SL7
“A lovely view of the weir at Marlow and over the Thames” through old-fashioned leaded glass windows is a highlight at this “friendly and professional” outpost of star chef Atul Kochhar, which – true to the contrasts of 21st-century Britain – aims to pay homage to his love of Indian cuisine in the environs of a “pretty” dining room by the river whose situation is archetypal of the traditional English Home Counties. On most accounts, his team provides “exceptional” cuisine that’s “sometimes full-on Indian” but mostly “a subtle, not-too-fiery fusion”. Ratings, though, are dragged down this year by a minority who find its performance “very average”. Top Menu Tips – “sublime Dal Makhani”; “the best ever soft shell crab and amazing monkfish”.
4. Maliks
Indian restaurant in Cookham
High St - SL6
2023 Review: “Every dish is fresh and authentic” at this comfortable curry house which occupies a half-timbered building on the high street, and which has become well-known over many years for its superior Indian cuisine. Heston is a fan.
5. Vaasu by Atul Kochhar
Indian restaurant in Marlow
2 Chapel Street - SL7
Chef Atul Kochhar is not just one of the UK’s most high-profile Indian chefs, but famous chefs full stop. He opened this modern, appealing dining room in 2020, just one day before the first Covid lockdown (aargh) as part of his empire of outlets across the Home Counties and it consistently inspires highly upbeat feedback (if, fair to say, short on utter rave reviews).
6. Maliks
Indian restaurant in Gerrards Cross
14 Oak End Way - SL9
“Great curry house with friendly, helpful staff” – one of a trio (with siblings in Cookham and Marlow) that have been the last word in this corner of the Home Counties for top-class “authentic Indian cuisine with a price tag” since the late 1990s (Heston Blumenthal is a fan). Top Tip – “the Sunday buffet is an attractive outing”.
7. Gifto’s Lahore Karahi
Indian restaurant in Southall
162-164 The Broadway - UB1
This veteran purveyor of “delicious” Pakistani/South Asian cuisine represents “really excellent value for the amount of food provided” – and as for the quality, its many fans insist it delivers among “the best lamb chops around”. Founded back in 1968 as a grocery serving the diaspora in Southall, it became a fully fledged restaurant in 1994 and now seats 180 guests in the main restaurant and another 180 in the ‘lounge’ function room upstairs.
8. Riwaz by Atul Kochhar
Indian restaurant in Beaconsfield
41 Aylesbury End - HP9
2025 Review: It has a star chef’s name over the door, but feedback was inconsistent this year regarding this outpost of Atul Kochhar’s empire of Indian restaurants. Amongst reports, one diner described dishes as plain “bizarre” and another who felt the “food is OK” added, “but it’s not worth the price and overall seems overhyped”.
9. Clay’s Hyderabadi Kitchen
Indian restaurant in Caversham
22-24 Prospect Street - RG4
“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.
