A lovely meal at this spot in Covent Garden on a Friday evening a month ago! I didn't have reservations which I think are highly recommended considering the small/medium-sized space for seating around 40ish, so I was glad they squeezed me in at one of the two-seater bar tables closer to the entrance.
They have a bunch of vegetarian, vegan, and gluten- free options, which I appreciated (shout out to Indian restaurants that have some of the best vegetarian options out there!) After consulting with server on her recommendation, I ordered the samosa chaat (£7.75) and the "Future 50" kofta (£15.50), a side of pilau rice (£4) This was plenty of food for one!
I really liked the flavors and heat level of the chaat, a tad spicier than I normally tend to eat, with the yoghurt sauce helping to temper the spice a bit. The kofta (meatballs, but made out of grains and fruit, not meat!) was amazingly tasty. So much that as a moderate meat-eater, they made me actually not miss the meat! The texture, moistness and flavor were top notch, especially the crispy toasted exterior from the quinoa. Thumbs up! I do wish it came with rice instead of having to order it separately. The server was friendly though I had to remind her to bring me a glass of water, I'd recommend this place and would love to come back and try some of their other offerings.
