It has to be some of the best Indian food I've had outside of India. The little complimentary chai while you wait in line is such a thoughtful touch and really sets the tone. Even though there was a queue, it moved surprisingly quickly. Once inside, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. As for the food... every dish we ordered was outstanding. Rich flavors, perfectly balanced spices, and you can tell a lot of care goes into every plate. Honestly, I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu. If you're in London, don't overthink it. Just get in line, enjoy the chai, order what sounds good, and have a fantastic meal. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in town.

The star of my meal was the Chat Bomb (pani puri) appetizer. Though I throughly enjoyed each dish I…read moretried. The other dishes were very good as well, though not quite to the top tier in differentiation in flavor.

Nice ambiance and attentive service on a rainy night where I was the only patron. Lots of takeout happening though. This might not be the fanciest Indian food place I've been to in London but it's right up there at the top for quality. The Lamb Rogan Josh was delicious and spicy. Just unbelievable depth of flavor. The Chana Masala was outstanding. Do yourself a favor and order any of the lamb dishes here, you won't be disappointed. Highly recommend this for those looking for good Indian food!

Prior to becoming a restaurant it was an actual library, and they include the story and imagery to show it's history. I love that they have kept the essence with the library shelving and books.. your check even comes in a book. The food and service here were exquisite.. it felt improper to take out my phone or I would have more photos to show, but I did take a few at dessert time. The staff was friendly and helpful in providing recommendations. The wine and cocktail lists were plentiful. They also had a nice tea list, some beer options, and plenty of non-alcoholic spritzers (as was pretty common in London). The menu has a selection of meals from another chef, for those who can't handle even the mild heat of Indian cuisine. There is not a kids menu and as expected with Indian food, most of the food has a kick to it. I ordered tandoori chicken and a side of rice for my children, and they provided a tomato sauce (similar to a tikka masala sauce) for the kids to dip into; my son enjoyed the cucumber yogurt sauce to cut the bite of the spice. The food was spectacular. I had a scallops dish as a starter, then the lamb curry which was wonderful. My husband had the prawns with vermicelli, and my in-laws both had a chicken dish. We also enjoyed a selection of naans. We all polished off our plates with ease, and continued into after dinner drinks and dessert. The bathrooms here are downstairs in an area seemingly without heat.. bc it was freezing in there!! But there are additional seating areas as well. This is a popular place for business meals, and gatherings. I highly recommend trying out this establishment for yourself.
