Dishoom Permit Room Portobello - (Near , South East)

4 /5 chickenwingg: Went here for dinner and a drink. Been to a dishoom but first time in permit room. In terms of food choices, I think dishoom restaurants have a bigger menu. But for drinks, they have a wide selection of cocktails. We tried the kiwi colada (picture attached), mangosteen daiquiri and a spicy guava frozen drink. All were really good. My personal favourite was the kiwi colada (make sure to mix well before drinking).

5 /5 Connie Heal: Attended for my birthday meal. Food was outstanding. Lovely sharing plates reasonably priced. Everything arrived very promptly despite it being a full restaurant. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Lovely decor. Couldn’t have asked for a nicer evening all topped off with a lovely birthday gesture from the restaurant.

5 /5 Ankita N: Incredible food. Loved the Eggs Kejriwal and Chicken Kheema Pav. We went for their breakfast menu, got a table quickly. The service was fast too. Also highly recommend their chocolate chai!!

5 /5 Christopher Havlichek: Flavor Flavor - from chilli cheesy garlic naan to black daal - there wasn’t a disappointing bite in the bunch. Service was personable without being overbearing- offered suggestions upon request. The space wrapped you in the warmth of a Bombay lounge circa 1970s - such warmth!

5 /5 Damien Kempt: I have visited different branches of Dishoom before and always enjoyed my meals there. This was my first time visiting the Permit Room in Notting Hill and it more than lived up to the standards of the other restaurants. This particular location is made up of a bar on the ground floor and the restaurant on the first floor. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and had a really relaxed atmosphere with very comfortable seating. It has an authentic Indian atmosphere without being cliched or tacky. I was so comfortable that I could have sat there for much longer. The most important thing of course is the food and like other branches of Dishoom, it was delicious. I had the Lamb Chettinad curry and the Black Daal. The curry had a generous amount of meat, rich sauce and very spicy, just how I like my curries. The daal was creamy and had lots of flavour. Even the basmati rice and naan were prepared very well and they very kindly gave me some chilli jam for my naan. I just wish I had saved some room for dessert. I have always found the staff at Dishoom to be great and the Notting Hill team were no exception. I was served by Saru and Tulja (TJ) who were both very friendly and helpful. Saru gave a warm welcome when I arrived and Tulja checked in with me during my meal to make sure that I was having a good experience. It was much appreciated. I will definitely be back to this particular branch of Dishoom, especially as it is my neighbourhood. It is very much worth a visit if you want to enjoy delicious Indian food with excellent service.
