   Very good food and would return. The tables for 2 are very small so it can be difficult to eat with stuff piled up around you.

   Unfortunately the staff weren’t very friendly and made us feel like an inconvenience. They also didn’t offer or provide us with the complimentary poppadoms and the food was lukewarm when it arrived

   The Chicken Tikka Masala was far too bland. They didn’t leave out the sugar though. It was more like a desert than a main course. It is a cheap place to eat, but the food only looks like Indian. Please add some spice! Some of the waiting staff can barely understand English, and the ones that do aren’t much better. They are attentive, but I communicated better in Korea last week with people who didn’t know any English. It caused problems like way too much rice and not enough naan.

   Food quality is low and very greasy or intensely sugary. Meat quality low. We all had stomach problems after the visit. Staff tries to hide the bill for hiding the insane high service fee for an ok service.

   Below average food unfortunately. Bar seating area is very underwhelming.

   We came here for Christmas Day as they were one of the few restaurants open in London on the holiday. The food was good not the best Indian cuisine. We liked the onion bhaji. The butter chicken and naan were just ok. The staff circled our table like hawks to clean up plates and asked if we were done even though we weren’t.

   We ate here on Christmas Eve, the food was gorgeous and the service was lovely. Will definitely return next time we're in London.

   I took my family to Paro and the overall experience was great from food to the ambiance. I really enjoyed the Tandoori grill paired with the cheesy naan

    The lamb shank is definitely the best meal. If you want to eat something sweet but still full of flavour then go for the Nani-jaan chicken!
