    Service was friendly, professional but relaxed. Our waitress was actually Italian (very nice indeed but not what I expect in my 'Indian experience'). We went on Friday evening at 22.30 and it was quiet. The food is really first class when it arrives. Not your usual Indian fair but some unusual option which were great. Really close to, if not the best Indian food I've experienced and I've eaten a lot! If you want the traditional stuff which isn't on the menu they can do it for you. Recommended if you have time to spare. This isn't fast food! They also have an extensive drinks menu with cocktails and various wines and beers. We will visit again when we are back in Fulham.

    The food here is simply the best Indian I have had in ages! The food is based on the food of Mumbai and is flavourful and delicious with just enough spice that doesn't leave you reaching for some water. The starters are delicious .. the seared scallops is a favourite as is the fried chicken. The staff are attentive and friendly without being in your face Definitely worth a try!

My espresso was good, but my açaí bowl had zero fruit in it, and basically looked like soup. I've had hundreds of açaí bowls it's one of my favorite foods ever, and this place was just very underwhelming. My açaí bowl had zero fruit toppings, and felt like soup with rocks of ice in it. Super clumpy yet soupy just plain wrong. I left the whole thing. My husband ordered salmon toast and it has a little strip of salmon the size of half a pinky finger. I'm a chef myself and I know that minimal presentation is cute and key but this was just a sad toast. I love the menu and decor but please work on your execution of recipes

I had porridge with nuts and dried fruits on top, and it was exactly as it sounds. It was a huge portion, especially for the price/location, and it was so filling that I didn't even finish. My friend had waffles with a house-made hazelnut-chocolate spread. It might have been ok except that the waffles were not heated all the way through, so they were tough and chewy. The guy that made our order looked like he might have had a little too much fun the night before, so that might have been the issue, but he did put the waffles through the toaster, so it might also be a hardware issue. Whatever it was, my friend did her best but eventually gave up on the unappetizing waffles. The espressos were good, though.

We arrived at around 7 pm and there were still big tables of kids having afternoon tea and so it was a bit loud and a different energy to what we were expecting. We asked to move table to somewhere a little more quiet. Drinks took a while to arrive and service was generally quite disappointing. We asked for ice for our water a couple of times and no one ever came to bring any. It's a bit like we were forgotten about. Cocktails were decent but not remarkable. The food was good - squid ink risotto with cuttle fish. Needed additional seasoning but was happy to do that myself and had to ask for Parmesan cheese. While the food was good, it was not good enough to merit a return visit. Prices are fair but service charge is automatically added and I don't think they earned it this time around. In all, an average evening.

Battered like it owed someone money. Crisp on the outside, flaky in the middle, seasoned right. Chips were chunky, like they should be, not those little frozen fries that taste like sadness. Mushy peas weren't shy either. Tartar sauce had enough punch to remind you you're in Britain, not on a cruise ship. My bruv was with me, the one who's always got it all figured out. While I was neck-deep in cod and joy, he's sat there with a pot of tea and a steak omelette like some kind of Soho aristocrat. Didn't say a word, just nodded at the first bite. Man knows what he's doing. Service was sharp. Our waitress had that no-nonsense, bit-of-a-tease energy. Proper London. Never hovered, didn't push us out, and no fuss about the tip. Let us eat, drink, breathe, and get our bearings. We sat outside, under the red umbrella. Sun peeking through the trees. Locals walking their dogs, tourists trying to look like they belong. Great crowd. Better view. Felt like I was back, in all the best ways.

So when we visited in 2024, the parental units said "We found our fave F&C place, Balans." So me & the boy went one night for dinner. About have full and we were seated right away & a server was with us in a few minutes, his name was David. Wow, what a fantastic person! He was charming, around when needed and I feel I cannot say enough good things about him. Onto the meal, I had the F&C (ofc) and the boy had the roast chicken. The PU's were not wrong, literally the best F&C I have had in a very long time! The alcohol prices were better than the local pubs & the ambiance here is out of this world, just beautiful! Do yourself a favor & eat here.
