We went here before catching a show at the Adelphi theater. It is a great little place tucked up on the 2nd floor of an old hotel. Apparently it has been there since 1946. The service was nice and the wait staff take their time so you can enjoy yourself. Don't come if you're going to be rushed for time, it will ruin the experience.

The food was great and if you aren't familiar with the menu,...more

Really mediocre food - bland and all tasted the same. The naan was stale and tasted like it came from a package bought at Lidl. Bring your own alcohol but don't expect them to be overly helpful when you need a glass or a bottle opener.

Cash only. If you try paying with card, they will tell you, "CASH ONLY!" with an implied "rawr" somewhere in there.

Taste-wise, the food was about the same as the other Indian restaurants around town.

As everyone has mentioned, this place is old, and it...more

Well, what can I say?

The faded grandeur of this tired hotel and restaurant made me think this would be a real Yelp treasure when I arrived for a quick lunch.

Instead, I left disappointed. Why?

Prices are reasonable, but there are better values in Central London (i.e. set-price menu) for lunch. My chicken curry was a small portion and, surprisingly, had more than a few pieces of bone. Plain...more
