Karnaphuli is such a gem in Stoke Newington. We started with the pakoras which were hot, crispy, and full of flavour, then had the Chicken Tikka Masala and Chicken Biryani — both were absolutely delicious. The tikka masala was creamy and perfectly spiced, while the biryani was fragrant with tender chicken and so satisfying. On top of the amazing food, the staff were warm and welcoming, checking in just enough without being pushy. The whole place has a really relaxed, friendly vibe, and you can tell they take pride in what they do. Easily one of my favourite meals in the area — I’ll definitely be back soon!

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth. The staff were exceptionally friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and always with a smile. The food is equally as brilliant. Every single dish was absolutely delicious. You can taste the quality and care. It is also phenomenal value for money! I can't recommend Karnaphuli enough.
