We had a take away and it was the best Indian food I’ve had in a long time. Well priced. Tastes like home cooked Indian meal - not too oily nor over spiced. Defintely a five stars

The oldest Indian Restaurant in South London since 1958 & still serving a variety of authentic curries to Clapham. It's always good to see a bit of nostalgic mainstay in the ever-evolving high street but that doesn't mean this place hasn't kept up with the times - once you visit you'll see exactly why they're still around. I came here recently with a small group of friends and all of us enjoyed our time here. Upon arrival we were greeted by one of the waiters and some traditional & modern Indian music playing in the background. The waiters are friendly and attentive but most importantly, the food was well-presented and delicious! I would recommend trying a starter or two, especially the samosas as they sometimes have non-standard fillings. The starter platter is best suited for 2 people, in my opinion. I got the Lamb Karahi curry and my friend got the Coconut Fish Curry and a Biryani which also comes in a sealed pastry crust. A single naan bread is plenty and can be shared between two. All of it was delicious! I only wish there was a bit more curry and pilau rice as I have a moderately-sized appetite but otherwise it was perfect.

Had a meal here with my son and wife, very attentive service and food was delicious. Apparently one of the oldest curry houses in South London Est:1958. I can see why it is still around, highly recommend a visit. Probably best to reserve a table if eating after 7pm.
