Masala - (Near Kensington and Chelsea, South East)

5 /5 Harry Lee: Walked in randomly after many years of absence and ordered some takeaway. Had the chicken saag and was recommended the lamb vindaloo, both of which were very authentic and delicious. Accompanied by some steamed rice, the food was nothing short of amazing and will go back again very soon. They don’t serve alcohol, but allow BYO. The atmosphere is warm and homely. I remembered an elderly gentleman who used to own/operate the restaurant and so glad that the quality of the food has been maintained. The cost of the meal for an eatery in this area with such high quality food is ridiculously cheap. If you haven’t been, I would make a beeline asap.

4 /5 Suhail Ali: A small and cozy place for Halal Indian food. Tried this place for Lunch. Quite a wide variety of dishes, both vegetarian and non-veg. Place was cozy and clean tucked in a bylane opposite Earls Court Tube station. We ordered Chicken Biryani, Chicken t8kka masala, Chana Masala, Naan and topped it up with Indian tea. First things first, Naans were super good, fresh soft and fluffy. Second best item was Chicken Biryani, fragrant and rightly done. Chicken was tender and rice were long grain. Chana masala was also good, well cooked and tasty. Chicken tikka masala was not up to the mark. Ideally Chicken should be barbecued and then cooked in gravy but here it was chicken cubes cooked in tomato gravy with very strong taste of tomato. Chai was also good. Hearty meal for 3 costed 40.5 Ppunds which isnt pricey at all. Overall decent value for money.

5 /5 Mohamed Raj: I had the sag chicken here and honestly — it was absolutely fantastic. Without a doubt the best I’ve ever had anywhere. The flavours are real, rich, and exactly what proper Indian/Punjabi food should taste like. If you want authentic, home-style cooking, you have to come here. It’s off the beaten track, but that’s what makes it a gem — a cosy, homely environment serving food that feels like it came straight from someone’s kitchen, not a commercial kitchen. What more do you want? Just look at my picture — they say a picture speaks a thousand words, and in mine you’ll see one thing: I finished everything.

5 /5 KT is not me: Affordable and Authentic north Indian food. Had the butter and plain nan, veg biryani and mutter panner. Portions were good, could t finish so had to take away leftovers together with a freshly grilled chicken leg. Will return again next time
