Absolutely the best Butter Chicken ever. It was incredible. And the Ginger Orange Brûlée Rice Pudding was spectacular.

Just not worth the money. Portion Sizes like Tapas. Food was bland, cut of meats questionable. Attentive service but maybe that’s because they probably cant believe themselves what customers have to pay. Drinks horrendously spenny too.

We had a wonderful meal at The Curry Room- I very highly recommend and we will be returning again soon! Treat yourself to an exceptional meal here- from the moment we arrived we were treated like royalty! The atmosphere is old world luxury, the food is devine and the service was impeccable! Chef and staff went above and beyond to accommodate our party of 6 - and the food was the best Indian I’ve ever eaten. This place is a hidden gem and well worth every pound spent!

The setting was lovely, the food was good but really nothing special. The naan bread was mediocre and overcooked. The dessert was once again okay but nothing to write home about. The service was up to scratch however. I would have expected far, far better for the price we paid. Very disappointed.

It was over priced, load and the service was slow. I could only hear the bar singer stopped between sets. Not worth it.
