Veeraswamy

First experience at Veeraswamy- warm welcoming atmosphere. The starters were supremely good with a tandoori prawn and chicken tikka stuffed with nut. Amongst the best. Whilst the appearance and serving of the main course was excellent, on the actual taste side Things then became average at the main course with a slightly rubbery lobster curry, a very underspiced lamb and an ok butter chicken. The pineapple curry was nice and interesting. The dessert completely disappointed - a kala jam turned out to be an ultra sweet glorified gulab jam - that was a big let down.

Great experience going here. Food was very well cooked and fantastic flavours. The lamb dishes we had were especially good - the Lamb Biryani was one of their classics and it was delightful. We had Sonia (I think) to look after us and she's great. Very professional and helpful - a real credit to the place. Definitely recommend this place for a treat visit - it's quite pricey. It seems to have been decorated in the maximalist style however some of it doesn't work on the eye fully - may need an update in some areas.

米其林一星 将近百年历史的印度餐厅也是英国最古老的印度餐厅 据说是英国将军和印度莫卧儿王朝公主开的 被《国家地理》杂志评选为世界上十大最佳目的地和特色餐厅，我真的是很喜欢印度菜！有个店员巨可爱！他推荐的一定要点哈哈哈，不过也确实好吃还单独给我做了一份蟹肉饭。！很棒！

Right, so here we go ! Another Michelin star Indian restaurant in Mayfair. I haven’t visited this restaurant since the pandemic so decided to go again as they seem to keep retaining their Michelin star. In short, I was disappointed. We ordered the non vegetarian platter as shown in pic below. There are 6 items on the platter and it costs £60/- ! 1 seekh =£10/- ! Wow .. it’s not even scallops or something fancy ! These seekh kebabs you can get for 1-2£ in east London. Anyway found the whole platter super expensive and also not top quality in terms of taste too. I am originally from Delhi so I do know how beautiful North Indian cuisine tastes. Anyway we ordered butter chicken and lamb biryani. I think it was all ordinary and nothing was like super delicious. In my opinion better butter chicken is available in other Indian restaurants in London. Biryani was ok but again nothing stood out. Right, we paid more than 100 plus per person and it felt it was more for the location of the restaurant rather than for food and of course as they have a Michelin star the prices will be higher than other places. I guess not for me .. there is a new genre of indian restaurants opening up in London which have more unique food and probably better value for money. ( and more delicious too in my opinion )

10/10 superb pineapple curry. You can tell all of the ingredients used are top quality. Everything tasted like it should, authentic and cooked with love

I was planning to visit this restaurant in the future but unfortunately it is not possible as I have small children. Why wouldn’t small children be allowed? Who will contribute to your pensions? Absolutely shameful policy.

I tried Bori chicken biryani and sekh kabab, biriyani not that much great, sekh kabab was good,service taking too much longer, even bill taking longer than food service and very expensive water bottle charged around 8 pound, finally restaurant name like south indian but it is not, typical north indian style food.

I went on 20/01/2025 for my boyfriend's birthday and unfortunately we had a bad experience there, the waiters were taking forever to come over when we arrived and then the worst happened, my boyfriend got food poisoning on the same night when we were coming home and it has been almost a week and just now he is recovering. He had the butter masala chicken, the pineapple curry and the lemon rice. In the end he also had the birthday cake they gave us, but I dont think this was the issue as he was throwing up the pineapple a lot.

Overall the food was delicious, it was let down by the service, where I asked for food to be packed to take home, the team then decided to tell me I lied about it because they couldn't find the fact that they didn't pack the food. I saw a manager shout at one of the staff because of it (it wasn't her fault?) I actually even followed up by email to which I never received a response too.

Without a doubt one of the best meals I’ve had in my life. I’ve found when it comes to Michelin-starred Indian restaurants, apart from the service there’s two aspects that make a restaurant exceptional. The food has to be unapologetic and uncompromising. Most places get one right. But very very few establishments excel on both fronts. Veeraswamy takes the crown among Indian restaurants. My mouth still waters whenever I remember the tasting menu.

Had an enjoyable evening. The restaurant is beautiful, so inviting & warm. The staff were fantastic. The food was good. Not too spicy, well balanced.,The cocktails were delicious. Nice selection of wine. It was all wonderful. The only issue l have was l felt rushed. I understand it’s a 2 hour sitting however an extra 30 minutes would have been great .. l still loved it and would highly recommend.
