A 1970s disco-inspired Punjabi restaurant offering solid grilled meats and retro glamour, though the party atmosphere is more background nostalgia than full-blown boogie.
Ordering Strategy
Focus on the tandoori starters and sharing plates like the chaat and prawns; skip the lobster biryani which received mixed reviews.
What to order
Old Delhi Butter Chicken
Described as a "gloriously lively, but light and zesty" plate, critics appreciate that it delivers classic richness without the heavy, weighted-down feeling typical of the dish.
Tadka Dal
A standout for those wanting depth and flavor, it is heralded as the "most perfectly soupy, spicy and rich-in-flavour version" one critic had eaten in ages.
Saffron Milk Cake
A consensus highlight that saved the meal for some; it is praised for its "impossible lightness" and "soft and rich" texture, offering the punchy energy reviewers felt was missing elsewhere.
Kale Patta Chaat
Retained for its popularity, this dish is part of the "excellent" starter selection and praised for being a lacy-crisp and quenching accompaniment to the meal.

Good to know
The vintage photo booth is purely decorative (it hides the kitchen), so don't try to use it. The restaurant holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand.
