   I really enjoyed my meal here. I went with my family and we had the tasting menu. The spiced lamb chop with avocado chutney was particularly good, but all the food was really tasty. Well spaced restaurant, nice buzz but not too busy. Very attentive staff, well versed in the food and the story behind it. Great G&Ts. Thoroughly recommend.

   Firstly, this was very convenient for the New London Theatre on Drury Lane, and we were able to book a pre-theatre table for a Saturday at fairly short notice, unlike many other restaurants in the area. We had the pre-theatre menu, which gives you a choice of 4 starters (one of which is vegetarian), 4 main courses (one chicken, one lamb, one prawn, one vegetarian) with rice, vegetables and naan and an ice cream on a stick for dessert. This is a lot easier than the full a la carte menu! The starters were excellent, but we felt the chicken main was a bit on the hot side for our liking. The food was all high quality though, so can't really be faulted. At £23 the pre-theatre menu seems reasonable value, but then add in a cocktail each (about £11 and though nice, they're quite small), an extra bowl of rice as one bowl between two hungry people isn't enough (£5) and bottle of water (£5) a small pot of tea each (£8) and then a service charge of 12.5% on top of everything and your £23 per person meal has turned into £50 each. The a la carte menu will set you back a lot more (£20+ just for a main dish) but there's a lot more choice. Or you could have the taster menu (£60 for the meat option, £45 for vegetarian option) where (from looking at the menu, we didn't try it!) you get a good selection of things. The staff were pleasant and helpful and the environment was good. Overall we would recommend the restaurant - if you're having a night out in theatreland, nothing else is going to be cheap anyway!

   We went for a reunion meal which we were hoping would be good food, a few drinks and time to catch up with a years gossip. On reflection this was perhaps not the right venue for our evening. The menu had some interesting dishes included which were tasty and beautifully presented but were very small portions. prior to visiting the restaurant I had looked at the website it had suggested there was a set price menu which we weren't offered. We had cocktails to start which were good value and looked very pretty. However, the wine list was expensive (a bottle of prosseco was £42) I know I'm from the North but that is a big mark up. It was quite formal which alongside the price of the alcohol did not lend itself to a very relaxed evening. Later on there was a corporate event which we effectively ended up in the middle of (they were having a quiz!!), which again didn't encourage us to linger. It also divided the attention of the staff and we struggled to get our bill and coats, given there was a service charge they maybe didn't need to try so hard to get a tip. Overall over priced and under delivered.

   Met a friend for a pre-Xmas meal here last week and were very impressed. The restaurant is very elegant and smart in appearance, the staff were without exception friendly and helpful, and the food was presented beautifully and tasted amazing. It really felt like special occasion dining, and the a la carte menu would have to be reserved for that as it was expensive (upwards of £20ish for a main, though to be fair they did look superb), but the pre-theatre set menu was brilliant - starter, main plus vegetable side, rice and naan, and a little kulfi for dessert was plenty of food, served elegantly and everything was delicious. My only tiny grumble was the smoke alarm being set off accidentally while we were there, it went on for about 6-7mins and was shrill as anything, so it did disturb things a bit, but that aside I have only positive things to say and will definitely visit again.

   A great pre theatre dinner with friends. The portion sizes for a special offer were more than ample. Food and service were excellent. Wine is pricey. Great ambience.

   Always an outstanding meal. I have enjoyed lunches and dinners here over a few years and I've never been disappointed. Their tasting menu provides a nice selection of Indian classics with a Moti Mahal twist - like duck samosas and a spicy scallop on lentils. My partner enjoyed the wine pairings while I went dry. She was very happy with the choices of wines. It's not cheap (£180+) for 2, but if you are looking for something special in the Covent Garden area and a delightful departure from the ordinary Indian menu, then this is the place for you. Enjoy!

    Food exceeded our expectations - all main dishes we ordered, chicken tikka, the lamb and the vegetarian dish were of high quality. Side dishes are overpriced, and necessary in the context of how much food is in the main plate. Waiters were very attentive, if not a bit too much trying to cross-sell more food and drinks at all times. A bit pricey but overall good choice.
