    I was really impressed with the Tandoor Chop House. The food was beautifully flavoured - especially the chops and there was a good range of starters. I would describe the menu as a fusion of Asian and British food. Really good portion sizes at a very competitive price- I think it was the first time in London that I couldn’t finish it all and had to have a doggy bag! Service was a little slow at first but there was a large group of 10 people next to us which took a little while deal with - after that, no problem. Drinks prices were fair for central London too. The atmosphere was ‘buzzy’ but never intrusive. I would highly recommend as a perfect pre-show restaurant and will certainly go again. Many thanks for a lovely meal.

    Food is well prepared and well seasoned. All selections are a bit spicy hot, and the roasted pineapple dessert was a nice finish. Duck breat and lamb chops were very good.

    This is the 2nd time I've been here and the food was still excellent. Great food and drink. It's a shame they have made the chili cheese naan much smaller- they should revert back to the old size.

    The waiter forgot one of our mains then came to the table with a drinks order that we did not place. The lamb chops were very fatty and had very little lamb. I came previously for the honey chilli chicken and was disappointed when this was not on the menu. Instead we ordered the pepper chicken which was bland and tasted like something we could have cooked at home. Disappointing.

    Pretty smokey in the restaurant but great informal atmosphere, chilled out. Food was average.. Very small limited menu which is fine if the food is amazing but it was average at best and really expensive. Toilets dirty and no loo roll. There are some places you go back to again and again.. This isn't that place unfortunately.

    We visited on Saturday at 4pm and were really looking forwards to the meal. However, the both our chicken dishes were inedible. The chicken had a very strong petrol/lighter fluid taste to it. It was very busy with staff looking stretched and so we just left without complaining. But the drinks and chaat were very nice.

    I think the location and venue are great… but I just didn’t enjoy my meal. It tastes absolutely fine but it wasn’t balanced. It was essentially meat with a dry rub, and carbs (naan or potatoes). There is only one salad side on the menu. It also felt really expensive because they encourage one main per person but the main is not a balanced meal. Honestly it was more suited for sharing in my opinion. So check the menu before you book. On a plus, it’s not super noisy, the seating is cosy and intimate.

    Amazing food as per the famous TikTok videos. We had the Sunday Thali & it was delicious!! My only slight complaint was the service was a little slow when trying to order more drinks. It was only about 3/4s full & there appeared to be lots of staff but no one approached us at all to see if we wanted any more drinks & we then spent time trying to catch eye contact with someone. Despite that small issue… I would absolutely recommend it & will look forward to returning.

    Food is delicious ! I recommend trying the duck breast which was SO flavourful, but also the tandoor chicken (so juicy and tender!) and the fish ! We were really full after the meal so I could not order more, but I saw that the onion rings like appetizers looked damn yummy !!

    I had a really delicious dinner here with a friend last night. The bhaji onion rings and cauliflower croquettes were great starters. Very tasty. We also had the tandoor chicken and the tikka chicken. Service was great. The place was bustling and seemed to be very popular. We really enjoyed our dinner!
