Maria DwmataDecember 31, 2014ideal for a special dinner! everything is quite spicy, but it is an amazing dining experience.
ToryBurchOctober 12, 2011This opulent Indian restaurant--the oldest in the UK--serves beautifully prepared Indian dishes. Their kulfi (pistachio ice cream) is divine.
Paul BoothApril 27, 2018You must order the pinnacle curry side dish. It’s extraordinary. Honestly, you won’t be disappointed!
Mike CraveySeptember 30, 2014Raj Kachori and Kerala Prawn Curry were new experiences for me and I thoroughly enjoyed them.
Fatimah AlTassanAugust 12, 2018Raj kachori & chicken makhani are my fav. Some of the dishes were too spicy that I couldn’t really taste them- S PJuly 8, 2016No trip to London would be complete without a visit to Amaya, Chutney Mary or Veeraswamy... Veeraswamy it is this time for some very good Indian.
Ufku AkaltanDecember 8, 2012Whatever you eat as main course, don't leave the restaurant without tasting the mighty Vattallapam; one of the best desserts ever...
Mats-Ola StrömMarch 3, 2015Very good currys, excellent service, great atmosphere... Highly recommended!
One of three best places in London for Indian. Try chili martini!
Clara BayarriFebruary 4, 2015Pricy but great Indian food. The lamb chops covered in nuts were brilliant.

Foodman FoodzillaJanuary 4, 2015Chicken kasundi, amritsari lamb chops, Kerala prawns curry, grilled prawns
Barrie Lloyd-JonesAugust 14, 2013First class all round. Highly recommend Scallops starter with Ginger sauce
Mike FadunmoyeAugust 21, 20132 down 1 to go. Chutney Mary is one of my favourite restaurants and Veeraswamy joins it.
Noura SayedNovember 16, 2018Chicken Makhani + naan was average, and the naan is barely enough for half the portion. Masala Chai better than expected. In general overrated & overpriced though.
Eshwar AndhavarapuAugust 1, 2014Would not call it affordable - very good food but I would expect nothing less given the prices. Amazing but not for the price. Excellent location though!
