Here's an improved version of your restaurant review: --- I visited Agra based on the positive reviews but left somewhat disappointed. I ordered the Murgh Makhani Butter Chicken, Cucumber Raita, and Garlic Naan. As someone with considerable experience in Indian cuisine, I found that none of the dishes I tried tasted authentically Indian. The Butter Chicken resembled more of a lentil soup with chicken rather than the rich, creamy dish it's supposed to be. The Cucumber Raita lacked sufficient seasoning, coming across as a poor imitation of Turkish or Greek cacik/tzatziki. As for the Garlic Naan, the garlic was so scarce that it felt like the bread had only been briefly introduced to the idea of garlic. While the food was decent overall, if I hadn’t known what I ordered, I wouldn’t have guessed it was meant to be Indian cuisine. Also, the portions are way too small.
First things first, the food is great. Perhaps a little spicy for those that cannot handle it, however they can probably do a medium or mild version of any dish. Fantastic location - right around Radisson Blu Grafton. Also, Mohammed Ali ate there and there is a picture him as well as many other famous people. Food ordered for 4 people. Full tandoori chicken Sheekh kabab Chicken tikka biryani Butter chicken 3 Naan The Naan was nice and puffy. It had a hint of sweetness and had an airy bread-like texture. The tandoori chicken was a brilliant red with fantastic char at the ends of the pieces. Very tender and flavourful. Remarkable spice blend, juicy and salted just right. The chicken tikka biryani was excellent. Great chicken, a bit of oil but not too much as to be oily, well spiced and salted. Beautiful colour as well Sheekh kabab, what more do I have to say. My personal favourite. Spicy, flavourful, firm but tender, juicy, about the length and width of a regular hotdog much better though, goes great with naan and mango lassi. If I could rate it more highly I would. 10/10, I will eat there again.
I am writing this review while eating the foods. Because this restaurant deserves a 5 star review. The fodds are amazing. I am from sri lanka and I know how Indian foods taste like. And the foods from this restaurant is really really amazing. If you want to go to a fancy restaurant this is not fir you. But if you want to eat authentic real Indian food, this is your restaurant.
First time to this restaurant and went here because of some glowing reviews. First impressions, the place was dated and it had a traditional vibe, and it needed a bit of work…it looked like a large room with tables rather than a restaurant. I noticed some photos hanging on the restaurant wall and it has some past history serving food to famous faces to the likes Mohammad Ali back in the 50’s….which was plus for any restaurant with a good history. When it came to the food, it was satisfactory; I ordered lamb dhansak with pilau rice and nan bread. The lamb dhansak was ok, but towards the spicy side, which made it difficult for me to finish the whole dish, there wasn’t much meat which was a shame only had 3-4 lamb cubes The rice was fine but towards the dry end. The nan bread was a slight disappointment as it was soggy with no butter….I was hoping for it to be a little crispy to add to the taste. The owner was a great host and it was great to chat with him. It was clear that the business isn’t doing as well as it used to and now regular customers tend to visit the restaurant, but even then less and less of those are coming. It’s a real shame as the restaurant has real potential, they just need to spruce up the place to bring it to modern times, but I understand that there is a cost involved with this; if the business does not make much money, then it will be difficult to invest in the business. All in all, I’ll give it 3 stars ‘satisfactory’, if they improve the recipe a little and spruce up the restaurant to show the history of the restaurant, then it would be a great restaurant to go to on a regular basis.
Without a doubt the best Indian food I've ever had. The owner takes it to the next level. He spends time understanding what you like and can suggest exactly what to order. The food is authentic and of the highest quality. This man is a master, knows his craft!Food: 5/5
First impression, disappointed by the way I was greeted at the door. The man was sulky and appeared annoyed with my entry through the door, not a tit bit of welcoming. Just because I was desperately hungry after an event I decided to stay for food. Clearly inattentive as he missed my drink order throughout the sitting, I did not bother to remind, or was asked if I needed one. Prawn Tikka Briyani was absolutely stunning. Good amount of spice, riced cooked perfectly. To my surprise, the amount of prawns in the dish was much more than I would expect. Paired with vegetable curry which was a good accompaniment . Cucumber raita was just cut up cucumber in yoghurt, nothing fancy. Overall very satisfied with the quality of food. Restaurant was clean but front service can be improved.
One of the best Indian meals of my life. Excellent service, varied menu, very vegetarian friendly. The staff were very welcoming and accommodating, the chianti was excellent, the Naan was pillowy, the flavors were pungent and distinct. The communal tables made for interesting interactions. Highly recommend.Food: 5/5
We did not have a great experience here. The food was fine but the wine was awful. We are pretty sure our popadom dips were just reused from another table. Not very hygienic.Food: 3/5
Happy Memories: I last visited this restaurant in the early 60’s, I think 1962/63. It was a regular lunchtime haunt for us “articled clerks” because of the tremendous value for money, a 4 Shilling 20p 3 course meal. A choice of meat Kima or Kofta, a paratha or boiled rice, dessert Gulabjammon or rosangula plus a cup of tea! In those days, before parking restrictions, Warren St. Station to The Agra Club, was full of second hand car dealers with their cars! Later it became a Club for a while. John Stewart.
One of the best Indian restaurants in Central London. Their chappati is awesome, just like from home. In the time I spent in London, I dined here at least on alternate days. Tried a lot of their dishes. Great food and great service. Mohammed Taj was very very helpful and I thank him for this! Highly recommended. Mustafa.
