Ordering Strategy

This place is built for groups. Order a Mixed Grill Sizzler and Biryani to share, and make use of the 'Feast' menus if you are a large party.

What to order

Safe first

BBQ Butter Chicken Wings

These wings are 'blackened in a furious spice crust and then doused in a thick butter sauce.' Reviewers describe them as so addictive they've imagined 'popping back alone and having two bowls.'

Hungry

Suckling Lamb Biryani

A centerpiece of the rotisserie and wood oven section, this biryani is offered as a 'whole suckling lamb' feasting option for groups, representing the restaurant's most ambitious, high-intensity cooking.

Wildcard

Beef Chuck Bone Marrow Keema Chilli Cheese Kulcha

A 'hugely compelling' dish that Rayner describes as a fighty game of word association. It features a rich mince curry with a lump of roasted bone marrow and cheesy bread for scooping.

Wildcard

Ox Cheek Vindaloo Samosas

These spicy, meat-packed 'beer snacks' are intended to be memorable, serving as a punchy, high-flavor introduction to the restaurant's heavy-hitting Indian barbecue menu.

What to skip

Skip
Lobster Kati Roll— Multiple reviewers found the filling texture disappointing and the dish forgettable compared to the high-intensity grilled meats like the goat chops or lamb ribs.

Good to know

It is extremely loud and male-dominated ('City boy' vibe) with live sports on TV. There is a pool room and a whisky vending machine. Booking is essential for dinner.
