Ordering Strategy

Order a spread of small plates like the seekh kebab and bhaji onion rings, choose a tandoor meat to share, and experiment with the stuffed naans. For groups, the Mighty Thali is a fantastic sharing feast.

What to order

Safe first

Seekh Kebab Roll

A favorite of critics and diners alike, this 'robustly spiced' minced lamb kebab is served on a well-blistered naan with pomegranate seeds and a mint sauce that helps 'tame the dish'.

Hungry

Amritsari Crispy Lamb Chops

These chops are famously marinated 'within an inch of their lives' and cooked in fierce heat to ensure tender meat with a heavy, flavorful char.

Wildcard

Dexter 'dripping' keema naan

Hailed by The Guardian as the 'best dish' on the menu, it features a charred flatbread piled high with intense, 'highly spiced minced beef'.

What to skip

Skip
Bone Marrow Naan— Described as a 'misfire' that results in an 'oil-slicked bread' rather than the luscious experience promised by its name.
