The Great Indian

The dinner was fantastic. Indian food with all the flavors and colors. Excellent quality. The service was really good. They explained the dishes to us in detail. They were very attentive to any allergies or intolerances. The cocktails were also good. We will return.

Absolutely amazing dining experience at The great Indian. We visited last night and are already planning the next trip. The staff were incredibly attentive, cocktails were so tasty and the food absolutely incredible. We each had a few cocktails, the lychee martini, cosmopolitan and the Rani Royale I believe it’s called. They were so tasty. We had the okra and lotus crisps whilst we decided on food and the lotus crisps were delicious. We had the lamb tacos & samosa chaat for starters. The lamb was the star, so tasty we could’ve had 5 more portions! We all shared the lamb curry, butter chicken, chicken biriyani, dhal and garlic naans. Each dish was perfectly seasoned, the lamb just melted in our mouths and the butter chicken was so creamy. Garlic naan was so crispy yet fluffy and really tasty. For dessert we ordered the brownie and they came out with a tray of all of the desserts for us to try which was so lovely. The gulab jamun were beautiful and the mango ice cream was so good. Everything was 10/10 for us and we loved the ambience and vibe in the restaurant. It is also dog friendly which was a nice touch. Will definitely be returning

Our experience at The Great Indian was lovely. We had the Chili panner, an aubergine dish and the veg biryani. The food was great, we finished everything and left very full. I will say however that the food is not spicy or overly flavourful, the favour was nice however I think it depends on preference whether you prefer it to be on the spicyer or more hearty side. We had the Mango Doi for dessert as well and it was exceptional. The cocktails were also very well made. The only negatives I would mention is that for the price of the Mango Doi to be about £6.50? I was expecting it to be a bit larger, as it is a very small jar more suitable for a child’s portion.

Real Indian food. Warm welcome. Worth a visit. Dropped by The Great Indian on my last night in London — ended up having one of the most satisfying meals of the trip. The Lamb Ghee Roast was packed with flavour, and the Veg Biryani hit the spot. Tried The Great Indian cocktail — surprisingly good twist.

I’ve been twice, both times were fantastic and I’ll definitely be back. It’s worth making the effort travelling to come here, you won’t be disappointed! I went for Sunday lunch the first time and everything was just delightful, from the smoked poppadoms with their own amazing chutney, yogurt and tomato mixed with spices, fiery gunpowder chicken and the chilli paneer. Mains of Punjabi lamb curry, some lovely prawns in an almost Thai curry sauce and the Dal Makhani were just great. Rice and a butter paratha finished us off. I also went with some friends for lunch, and we, obviously, had the smoked poppadoms to share, followed by a Thali each, which were all incredible value - the lamb, the butter chicken and the Allo chole. They all said it was the best Indian meal they’d had in ages. Highly recommended.

A great visit here. Chef Mohit did an amazing job today, and came to check on us several times as well as making food recommendations. We ordered a variety of starters and mains. All meats were insanely tender and very flavourful. Perhaps not as spicy as I would’ve liked, but we were told we could request a bit more spice in future. The menu had enough variety and a departure from the norms of the usual desi pub menu allowing some personality to come through

I don’t know where to start with this review. London having so many good Indian restaurants this place really stands out. The Indian food is unreal, I would get the tacos and lamb shank + butter chicken. The starters was so good we almost didn’t eat mains due to how great the starters were. Cocktails - I like something sweet and had a mango daiquiri made for me per the servers jasween’s recommendation. She was so attentive and knew exactly what I wanted. All the cocktails were fantastic. The wine menu is perfectly paired for this cuisine and I would come here to just sit outside on their benches for small picky bits and drinks. Thankyou for looking after me and my family today. I will be back as much as I can.

I’m usually not one to write reviews but after eating here for the first time I was truly blown away. The food was full of flavour and presented beautifully. Everything tasted so fresh but my favourite had to be the lamb chops. They were super tender and had a kick to it. Drinks were on par with the food too, I asked for a passion fruit mocktail and it was so good I had 3! A lot of places either don’t make mocktails or make them overly sweet to the point where they’re not enjoyable but the ones here were perfect. Service was friendly and quick and the whole place had a really nice atmosphere. Would definitely recommend and will be back for sure.
