    Fantastic dining experience in a unique and tranquil space. The service was second to none, very attentive without being intrusive. The space is also very comfortable and elegant without being pretentious. Last but by no means least, the food and cocktails were out of this world. The monkfish and black dal were mind blowingly good as was the biryani. Genuinely an unforgettable dining experience.

    Overall good. I’d say some items are very overpriced, while others are more in line with what I’d expect for the area. Service was slow with a few forgotten drink a couple of times but everyone was very nice and it was quickly corrected. If I was trying to fit in a lunch in work hours I’d have been very stressed. As we were there for a relaxing afternoon I was unbothered. They were very accommodating of some of the group arriving at different times and adding a 5th chair on the end of a 5 seater table. Food is good, some creative starters. Not as many creative/original cocktail choices as I hoped. Not as memorably full of flavour as the similarly positioned (& slightly cheaper) Brigadiers round the corner. Would I go again? Yes, if not during lunch or under any time pressure, and Brigadiers is too busy to get a table.

    Kachori was recommended to us by a family member, what a great recommendation. We travelled from South West London for my daughter's 20th birthday and it was so worth the journey. The staff were very welcoming and attentive from the get go, we had a great table (a booth). The food was absolutely delicious in all respects and came at exactly the right time. The staff were kind enough to bring my daughter a complimentary birthday cake at the end of the meal and gave us some complimentary drinks for the birthday celebration. What a fabulous experience. I can't recommend highly enough.
