Dishoom Kensington - (Near Lambeth, South East)

5 /5 irws: We ordered the black daal, roasted corn, charred lamb chops and chicken ruby. Everything was absolutely delicious but my favourite was the lamb chop. The lamb was beautifully cooked and well marinated, the meat was not gamey at all! The chicken ruby was tender and a gentle spice to it. The black daal was indulgent and amazing to have with the naan. The restaurant has such a cozy decor with soothing lighting and service is stellar. Customers can sit at a bar whilst waiting for a table and enjoy drinks (the chai is a must try!!). Definitely recommend visiting this place when in London.

5 /5 ms __: The food at Dishoom is absolutely delicious — spicy, flavourful, and hits all the right spots. Chili chicken and chicken ruby were outstanding and pairs well with the naan (pic shown is one portion). I’d come back to the UK just for this. Easily one of the best Indian meals I’ve had. Service is efficient and friendly.

5 /5 Jasmine MJ: ABSOLUTELY worth the hype. Food is absolutely bursting with flavor and spices. There’s a wide range of variety on the menu, as well as some unique tastes, such as the Kashmiri chili ice cream (i couldn’t believe spicy ice cream could exist until I tried this!!). Definitely a must-visit when you come to London, but definitely book a reservation ahead of time, as this is a popular spot that fills quickly and will have a wait time if you don’t book ahead of time.

5 /5 Mac Cuevas: Fantastic experience at Dishoom. It was more than we expected. We visited London and heard about this place through social media and friends. This place did not disappoint. The staff were friend and attentive, the atmosphere was very authentic, and most of all the food was AMAZING! Definitely would recommend to visitors and locals of the London area. Already book marked to go back the next time we visit London from Canada.

5 /5 Daniel Clarke: We had an absolutely incredible experience at Dishoom Kensington, made even more special by the outstanding service from Deven. It was my partner’s birthday and Deven went above and beyond to make the evening feel really personal and memorable. He was attentive, friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared that we were enjoying ourselves. The surprise birthday cake at the end was such a thoughtful touch and really topped off the night. The food was exceptional from start to finish. We shared: • Masala prawns • Gunpowder potatoes • Mattar paneer • Monkfish curry • Black daal • Basmati rice • Garlic naan and cheese naan Every dish was packed with flavour and beautifully cooked — honestly some of the best Indian food we’ve had in London. Between the amazing food, the warm atmosphere, and Deven’s excellent service, it was a perfect evening and a birthday we won’t forget. We’ll definitely be back and will be recommending Dishoom Kensington to everyone we know.
