Cafe Silka

The outdoor dining had a great atmosphere and the food was super tasty. We ordered from the vegetarian options and everything was cooked beautifully. The curry portion was pretty big but the accompanying rice was tiny. Would recommend ordering multiple side dishes

It was the best Indian cuisine I've had in London so far. The wait for food was a bit long but you can understand as it was busy at the time. I wasn't quite keen on been given a time by which we had to leave the table. Nevertheless I would definitely recommend this place if your in search for an authentic Indian cuisine.

Delicious Indian dishes with affordable prices, friendly staff especially Juber and a cosy underground venue. For a meal for 2 with 2 large glasses of wine we paid 60£ but we ordered way too much and had to take away half. However, It is not an issue in this restaurant as they provide boxes and a bag, so don't be afraid to really explore their menu and if you order too much just take it away . Either way, the food was exceptional. We ordered popadums, samosa papdi chat as a starter, bread basket and 2 curries: chicken nawabi kurma and lamb sagwala. The former being more on a sweet verge and the latter on spicy. Both were great but my favourite was kurma! Don't be shy to also ask for advice from the waitresses if you don't know what to choose. They are happy to help. While paying we were also given a mint chocolate to sweeten the meal. We spent such a lovely evening/ date night at silka borough. We were also very well treated by the staff. We will definitely be coming back. If you are looking for exceptional Indian food, want to be treated well and have a nice evening/lunch then definitely visit this place :

So I'll say why I dropped the star. Firstly poppadoms were a bit soft, implying they were not the freshest and as it's underground so there are no windows, which takes away the ambiance for me a bit. But apart from that everything else was excellent. Juber our server was very friendly and wasn't too fast or too slow. The rest of the food was really tasty and a correct portion size for the price, e.g. the rice is definitely for 1. Particular favourite was the Prawn Saag. The decor was beautiful, especially the toilets. Also right next to the London Bridge tube entrance. Vegetarian options: A whole section for vegetarian options, so lots of choice

An Indian restaurant with a modest entry on the road, but a fairly big space in the underground! The ambient lighting might be a bit lesser for my liking, but its upto your preference! Chicken Biryani with Chicken Kolhapuri is the thing to try!

A very nice little restaurant located in the oldest market in Europe. And I cannot recommend this place enough, my 5 reasons for giving this plave a 5 star review. 1. The staff here are very friendly, professional and will understand everything you ask them. 2. The restaurant is very contemporary and clean. Interior is well maintained and kept up to the highest standard. 3. Management is highly proficient and efficient. Mr Jubair is a true gentleman and a prince among men. He keeps this place well maintained, treating his staff well and his customers like Kings and Queens. 4. The food... don't get me started. I had lamb chops starter recommend by Jubair and it was so soft and moist that it tasted better than most chicken. Then I had Lamb Mirchi again recommended by Jubair which was so tasty with the right amount of spices for that chilli kick I love and also the taste was phenomenol too. 5. the drinks and desserts... the usual drinks they have there but their desserts are amazing. I had Mint Tea and also warm gulab jaman with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and some caramel sauce that worked a treat again recommend by the manager, Jubair I highly recommend this place for the amazing food, the wonderful experience and the lovely people

Best Indian food I have had in London and the service was good. I went with the vegetarian dishes as sides so I could have 3 of them and taste good food.

A surprise find. An unassuming entrance leads to a great restaurant downstairs. Some really varied options on the menu provide a great choice. We had the saagwalla and a biryani. Both were excellent. The cheese and green chilli naan had a good kick to it. Staff were friendly, super busy and service was quick. Very enjoyable

Starters are worth trying. I like the seekh kabab and tandoori prawns, we ordered. The Lucknowi biryani made my day. I am a fan of Rogan Josh but here the tomatoes dominated the actual flavour can be taken care of. Meat was cooked to the perfection. Overall it was good and we enjoyed it.

Very unhappy with order via Ubereats which has just arrived. Missing saag aloo which cost £5.90 but only get refunded £2.77. Despite £20 special discount was rewarded due to royalty after placed 5 orders but total order was over £35. No reason I should be charged a single penny for the item I did not receive. Having say that missing order already caused customers unsatisfied as I need the starter!
