NK Arya Bhavan - South Indian Pure Vegetarian Restaurant Wembley

Very nice experience at this restaurant. It’s a big place, brightly lit and welcoming. We tried several dishes for lunch: idli, thalli as well the butter paneer masala. All were very tasty. Naan and paratha were delicious. Also enjoyed a mango lassi and chai. They left the beer on the menu as a tease - beer is no longer available 😭. Dishes tend to be relatively spicy; a take out mild butter masala we ordered was much spicy than we expected. Service was very good and servers were very helpful. Highly recommend a visit here for top notch indian food. Definitely a cut above.

​"I had a deeply upsetting experience at Arya Bhavan Wembley that I feel compelled to share. As a pure vegetarian, I trust restaurants like this to maintain high ethical and hygiene standards. However, I found a live snail in my Pulao rice. ​While finding a pest in food is bad enough, the way the staff handled it was utterly unprofessional. After discovering the snail, I tried to alert the team, but I was ignored by three different staff members who saw the issue and simply walked away or failed to acknowledge the gravity of the situation. I had to wait a significant amount of time before a manager finally appeared to address the matter. ​For a restaurant that prides itself on being 'pure veg,' showing such a lack of urgency regarding a living creature in a customer's meal is a massive breach of trust. It suggests a total lack of quality control in the kitchen and a disregard for customer concerns in the dining room. ​I will not be returning, and I strongly advise others to check their plates carefully."

The service was very good, fast and very polite. Beautiful ambience. The food was good and tasty. I ordered ghee roast and it was very good - very crispy dosa, chutneys were fantastic, potato sabji was good although could have been little better taste wise. The special falooda was very delicious and very well presented (long falooda spoon was missing, they gave normal wooden spoon). Overall very good experience!

Came all the way from Peterborough to try their food, and they didn’t disappoint us at all. We ordered the South Indian Thali, mini idli, masala dosa, mixed uttappam, and a filter coffee — and all of it together cost just £38. The staff were incredibly friendly, the ambience was pleasant, and the hygiene standards were excellent. Truly worth the trip.

⭐ Real Experience – Honest Review bcoz I never come again. I ordered a Masala Dosa yesterday in Wembley. I had asked for extra sambar, but they didn’t provide it — even though the restaurant wasn’t busy at all. It was my first visit, and I even added invoice with photo to show that this is a genuine review. The problem isn’t just the missing sambar — the masala dosa had four big potato chunks, two of which I’ve attached in the photos. When I informed the manager, he simply said “it happens,” and the girl standing there may be her name is in invoice,didn’t respond properly either. It clearly shows that customer value and service quality are missing here. Honestly, it’s good that Saravana Bhavan is opening soon in this area — I used to eat at their Rayners Lane branch, where they offer unlimited chutney and sambar with excellent service. Suggestion: better to replace that order or money back. Very bad.

Poorly packed and uncooked Chapati I ordered Chapati one set and Idly two sets in this Arya Bhavan at 21.00 and got the food delivered at 21.40. Total waste of money and couldn't eat the food at all. Firstly both the Chapati s were not cooked properly, was almost raw. All the chutneys were not closed properly and one of chutneys completely opened and spilled everywhere. I mean what kind of restaurant it is. Very poorly managed. They way the packed all the foods and sending uncooked food says that they rushed to cook and pack the food. I strongly do not recommend this restaurant. I need to raise official complaint on this

As a Filipino who’s used to flavorful dishes with meat, I was pleasantly surprised by this Indian vegan restaurant. The food was rich in flavor, with well-balanced spices and very satisfying curries. Even without meat or dairy, everything felt filling and comforting. The staff were also friendly and helpful. Definitely worth trying, even for non-vegans!

Worst customer service , Service (1/5 Stars) After placing our order at the table, a different server approached us about 10 minutes later asking if we had already ordered and it was completely lost in the system, forcing us to wait even longer. waited an unacceptable 30 mintue for just white sudney. Food-(1 Stars): overall taste : waste….as food lover if visit this hotel, it’s spoil your food reviews enthusiasm also they charged over price. please don’t never ever try this hotel. The. Food not worth for single penny in the hotel. Order South Indian thali price 10.90£…. Rice Served 1hr after , order medthu vada ( white Sudney ) served 30mintus late…. Feel like why select this hotel for lunch and to make food reviews about South Indian thali.
