Darjeeling Express
"The food is a true homage to our founder Asma’s royal Mughlai ancestry and the busy streets of Calcutta, where she grew up. Food here is served the way Indian food is meant to be eaten – platters of dishes boasting texture and flavours which complement each other, encouraging you to gather and share in the style of the traditional ‘daawat’ feast."

I celebrated my birthday here and it was absolutely fantastic. The staff welcomed me with a note on the table which was a nice touch and on top of that they took very good care of us throughout the whole experience! The food was outstanding, abundant and delicious. I highly recommend this place for a taste of very authentic Indian food!
First I would like to say how amazing and accommodating the host was. The service staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. Food was incredible. Great flavors. We will definitely be back.Food: 5/5
Went for the Supper Club Biriani which was a fantastic experience. Been saving for this since we came for the tasting menu earlier in the year. Truly wonderful experience and meeting Asma was the icing on the cake!Food: 5/5
Thank you, Darjeeling Express, for the wonderful thali at dinner! If you're missing home and craving authentic flavors, I highly recommend a visit. The food took me back to my hometown, Kolkata, with every bite. A special thanks to the amazing women chefs for such a heartfelt meal!Food: 5/5
This was hands down the best South Asian meal I've had outside my home. For context, I'm Indian, I've lived in NYC and been in London for 3 years and am no stranger to the high-quality meals you find in these big global cities. There was not a single bad item on our table. Every single thing was so incredibly good and tasty that me and my friend barely spoke throughout our meal, except to say "oh my god I can't believe my mouth right now." The service was also so mindful, all the way from booking to leaving with our doggy bag. Kasia was so kind that she accommodated our last minute, same day request for a fully booked dinner service and even ensured we got our requested time so that we would have time to make our reservation after work. Akanksha was our primary server and she was attentive from the minute my butt hit the seat. She made sure I did not consume anything that would aggravate my allergy, and she recommended drinks and the perfect katoris all evening. She was polite and conversational but still very cool. She brought us free chai toward the end of our evening, which we even mentioned to each other would be perfect to make our dessert complete and she somehow read our minds. Jhemil at the bar was also calm and collected during a busy service and supported her in making it possible for us to take home almost a whole bottle of masala chai since they were out of to-go cups. Frankie, the food runner, is somehow only 17 but one of the sweetest people to have served us. He mindfully walked us through the best way to enjoy our courses and even made sure to perfectly pronounce the name of every dish. He showed us the best way to properly eat each course. I rarely write reviews or feedback, but I have not been able to stop thinking about this dinner and experience for days. My only regret is eating so much that I was about to explode, and letting my friend take home the leftovers because I have been craving it since. For the experience and quality of the meal in a central London restaurant, the pricing is beyond reasonable. I have paid more for lesser meals, frankly. As an Indian, I can also confirm the authenticity of their playlist it's like they stole my Spotify. My friend and I will definitely be back to attend one of the Asma's supper clubs. 11/10 experience. Beat Dishoom by landslide in my opinion. never change!
Great place to enjoy some wonderful Indian food. Reservations were required for dinner, which was a set menu. We had the kosha Mangsho and prawn malaikari which were both lovely. The meat was so tender. Would definitely eat here again.Food: 5/5
There are so many good a.d different types of dining in Kingley Court. This is the best I've had so far, food was exceptional. Evenings are only set menu but with options. Go, you won't be disappointedFood: 5/5
The food experience was great! The staff is so kind. The Bartender Renata is a lovely person, very kind and the drinks were excellents! The slow meat and the deserts were awesome. We had a great moment and I hope come back soon.Food: 5/5
An amazing restaurant and experience. The service was excellent - very friendly, attentive and helpful. I had the Keema toasty for starter and the Kosha Mangsho recommend by the staff for main with the Tamarind dal as a side. It was all incredible! The mutton just fell off the bone and was so succulent, with wonderful flavours and just the right amount of spice if you don't like spice this probably won't be for you. I had a mango Lassi which was really smooth and velvety. I also tried the Chai tea recommend by the staff which was very surprising - sweet, spicy more than you'd think and creamy, it was gorgeous. I had a wonderful lunch here and recommend it to everyone.
This is a hidden gem! The food, the staff, the atmosphere....AMAZING! You can tell the recipes have been carefully constructed and curated with so many flavors. It was truly one of the best meals I've ever had. Thank you to Asma and her wonderful staff for an outstanding experience!Food: 5/5
