Worst ever food quality and quantity in whole London and united kingdom. Simply looting. Very low quality ambience. Price are atleast 3 times higher comparing quantity and quality with other similar restaurants. Staffs are highly unqualified.

One of the worst Indian restaurants I've ever been to in London. I am shocked at how this "street food" restaurant is charging £13-£16 for dishes when it's not the size of a main / reasonable side and using cheap ingredients.Charging more than Dishoom / central London prices for the teeny tiniest piece of dry chicken. I paid £51.60 for x2 small plates, x1 rice and x1 curry and x2 mango lassi.The menu looked interesting and the restaurant interior was very colourful but everything else was awful. It took a while to be seated, we were seated very close to the table next to us - could literally hear everything the table next to us was saying.The malai chicken was x3 pieces of dry chicken, bland and had 0 flavour. Chili cheese bites were the only edible item and I could tell they probably came from the frozen aisle of a supermarket.I ordered the £13.50 butter chicken curry and there was hardly any chicken. The crumbled chicken that I did try was very tough to chew and tasted low qualityMy boyfriend ordered the Lamb Curry - it contained bones and very fatty lamb. He also was not happy with the price or size. £16 chewy fatty lamb that is barely edible.The table next to us also was not happy about the food and serviceService was non-existent, I had to ask 3 times for water for the table. We didn't have any water for most of our meal. When it came to the bill, I was shocked.Would never visit this restaurant again - there's a lot nicer restaurants in the area. Even Nandos would be a million times betterDon't waste your money

Had lunch at CN last weekend- this was our second visit in four months. When we arrived around 1230 noon the place was empty. It slowly filled up to about a third capacity over the next 90 minutes or so. The food was sort of okay, clearly the portion sizes have taken a hit. The taste seemed authentic enough, just about, but the service was woeful. Just like previously, the whole front-of-house operation seemed to be run by only one person, a young lady. She had been reasonably affable on the previous visit but this time around it was impossible to catch her attention to order anything after our initial drinks and starters order. A few dishes were unavailable, this on a Saturday afternoon, early doors. Eventually we just ordered another sharing-starter and left. Will we be going there again? Unlikely, I would have thought. Shame.

I would say overpriced for what you get. The small cobra for £5 and the butter chicken for £13.50 I think. The chicken was fairly dry. If it was cheaper I would give a higher rating, it is marketed as street food after all. I guess the overall price of 20.50 would get you extremely high dining with many courses in India, not street food

Enjoyed the starters and drinks but found the main courses fairly bland. Veg curry used frozen vegetables; chicken curry sauce was tasteless. Naan not great. Lovely place to eat, and good service, but food could be better

Deleted bad review. Wrote a week back, cant find it... be careful...its only a hype abt this restaurant, there are definately much better ones around. Wont be surprised if this review will get deleted. 2 star only for the waiter who was very attentive and didnt keep us waiting for long.

Great and quick service, delicious, flavoursome food - lots of spice and flavour and chilled atmosphere.

I wouldn't say its very authentic indian taste. We ordered a good mix of starters and mains. Disappointed with the Naans, they were more store bought and just wiffed through a grill. Lamb kheema and Railway chicken had an extra bit too much of tumeric taste which wasn't nice to thw palate. Unlikely to go there again.

Lovely food but portion size was quite small given the price. Bread and rice were served later than desired.

Amazing food, reasonably priced, and our host was really helpful when we had questions (we'd never been before). Would highly recommend!
Amazing restaurant. So much to choose from and the food is so tasty. Lovely interior. A hidden gem.

For an Indian street food experience this was fantastic. Rustic atmosphere, great menu, first class food, friendly service.

Decent cocktails. Atmosphere was so so but was just before closing. Tucked away around corner so may be less well known.

What a hidden gem, lovely curry to share with good friends. Served as tapas the whole table can have a try of everything on the table. Authentic food and friendly staff.
