Indali Lounge

Last nights was the second time here. A group of us went for a friends birthday. We had a really good choice of cocktails. The bar man was very good, he knew his stuff and he served up some fantastic cocktails. After a couple of cocktails we were seated for dinner, by a very nice chap, who gave us fabulous service for the remainder of the evening. We all ordered the set menu which was great as we got to taste a lot of the different dishes, and I must say i cant believe they don’t use cream and butter as the dishes were so tasty, as with all tasty things, you'd be expecting it to be very fattening. Anyway all in all the birthday girl had a really good time and I think I'll be going back their to celebrate my birthday

It was a wrong decision going to this restaurant over the weekend. It was fairly busy and staff clearly couldn't cope with the pressure.It took nearly an hour for every course. Mixed bread basket was only filled with naan. Kebabs were very dry and hard. Service was erratic and prices are too high.

The only thing good about this place is the decor, nice metallic tiles on the wall. The food is tasteless and the service is stressed. I'll never go back.

I read an article in Evening Standard last week saying that Indali does healthy food so I went to try it out with a couple of friends. HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT!

Every thing tasted as if it's been mixed with yoghurt and the quality of chicken and meat was very poor.

The decor was OK and the service was very irratic, the staff looked stressed and confused.

Wouldn't go again.

It was very disappointing experience. Food was awful, the curry was like soup and was hard to find prawns in prawn curry. Portions are so small that its not enough for 1 person.

Service was polite but waiting staff didnt understand English. I asked for water and they bring Manager to our table.

Hope it will improve in future because concept is great and definitely I won't be going back.

It is one of the restaurants i love going to again and again. Ambience is good, staff is very polite, food is excellent which i cant belive how can they prepare indian food without butter and cream. they have also started their a la carte menu which gives a wide range of dishes to select from. crab curry is the best i've ever had as i am frequent eater of indian food. you can definitely expect me to go there again.

I totally disagree, the restaurant is beautiful and chic.

Menu is limited but they are launching a full menu in couple of days time.

All the staff are very polite and courteous. They also do take away...what else do you want?

I live nearby and I will be visiting this place more often then anywhere else.

The money is worth spending as you get enough privacy and time to eat unlike other restaurants where staff want to push you out as soon you finish your meal.

The décor is fantastic. It’s a shame about the food. It lacks in options on the menu. Me and my boyfriend went for dinner there the bill came to £55 without any alcoholic drinks for the set menu. Service was rubbish, orders where mixed up and food took forever to arrive and when it arrived it was revolting to eat. I wouldn’t recommend anyone to go.

This place has been getting ready to open for over a year - as long as I have been working here. As it was, we were the only ones in for the whole 90 minutes. The food was quite good, but took some time to get. One of the orders was wrong, and 2 dishes were brought out later than the rest.

After only giving £7 of the £9 'optional' tip, it went from alright venue to avoid like the plague!
