About this restaurant

  • Innovative
  • Romantic
  • Good for special occasions
Silka's unprepossessing doorway hard by the entrance to Borough Market doesn't give the true flavour of the delights that wait within. The basement restaurant is decorated in a modern, minimalist style in keeping with the sophisticated mix of clientele it attracts. The Indian menu features low-fat, healthful foods skilfully prepared with dishes geared to make you feel light and energized or calm and chilled out. Lots of people drop in for one of their lunchtime platters or to grab a power lunch box to enjoy out in the sunshine. The Ayurvedic dishes with choice of lamb, chicken, prawn or veg are very popular. If you're seeking long-time favourites, check out the Simply Indian choices like chicken tikka masala or lamb rogan josh. More adventurous souls should dip into the Showbites, where East meets West in dishes like shank of lamb braised in ginger and garlic paste. Silka is another winning entry in the groovy SE1 dining stakes.

    Eating as 2 veggies, we found it to be a delight, the food really ticked all of the boxes we needed it to. Familiar named dishes were served up and still managed to impress. Staff were attentive & service was included in the bill.

    Delicious food, it was just a bit loud to chat because the acoustics in the room downstairs were a bit weird!

    Intimate curryhouse under new management - good varied menu. For the price was expecting food and service differentiating itself from other Indian restaurants, but would not rate above others
