⭐ 5 Absolutely incredible experience! This Indian restaurant exceeded all my expectations. The butter chicken,Shashlik Roshila,Garlic Chilly Chicken was rich and flavorful, and the garlic naan was perfectly crisp and soft at the same time.Tandoori Chicken was nicely cooked and juicy.Everything tasted fresh and was beautifully presented. The staff were warm, welcoming, and happy to make recommendations (which were spot-on). The service was quick but never rushed. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, with traditional decor that adds to the overall experience. There are tons of vegetarian options too, which is a big plus. Pricing is very reasonable for the quality you get. Definitely one of the best Indian meals I’ve had—will be back soon and recommending it to everyone.

I visited this restaurant after seeing many great reviews, but my experience didn’t really match the expectations. I arrived at 1:30 PM and the place was nearly empty, yet it took around 35 minutes for our food to arrive, even though we only ordered two curries. Many reviews mentioned friendly service, but we were served by a different staff member who was just average, not particularly warm or attentive. The butter chicken was a little bland and average, and the other curry tasted just average or even a lil below. Quite overpriced as well considering the portion.

Nayem was an excellent host!! (More than a waiter) he was a teacher of indian cuisine!! Im traveling from Mexico and people told me i MUST try indian food in london, specifically CHICKEN BIRYANI. Nayem even gave me a special yoghurt sauce for my biryani! Gave me a great indian beer!! MAHA RAJA is your best option! A few steps from Trafalgar Square!!

Excellent food! We got served right away, and received our food incredibly fast. Most of us ordered butter chicken with garlic naan, and it was delicious as is visible with the picture below☺️. We had Nayem as our waiter, and were extremely pleased with the serviced we received. His professionalism along with his humour made our visit extra special and memorable!!! Would definitely visit again😊😊

Nayem (our server) was amazing from start to finish and really made our overall experience that much better! He was so polite and helpful with our questions and really made us feel welcome! The food was phenomenal - I totally recommend the chicken 95 and the butter chicken and chicken dansak were out of this world! This is a must when you visit London!
