We ordered their 3 course lunch menu and the food was fantastic. We got the daal makhni, palak paneer, paneer pakoda, pop corn chicken, pilau rice and chapati. For dessert we got the chocolate cake. The food was not too spicy, it was filled with flavors. Their lunch menu is changing but they agreed to serve us from the old lunch menu which was much appreciated. The service was excellent. I would recommend this place and visit again!
Amazing food and friendly, attentive service. The masala venison was exceptional, the smaller street food bites we had were also incredibly good (neither my girlfriend or I had tasted any of the dishes we picked before, as we prefer to try new things when available), and the roti was one of the best I've tasted in years. Aside from the food and service, they have a good range of drinks, with a decent choice of wines and cocktails, and even The Macallan amongst their choices of whisky!
Best Indian food you can ever try! Being from North India, I can definitely say, they have got authentic flavours. Everything was just so delicious. We ordered: Starter- Aloo tikki chat (Must try) Mains- Karahi Paneer Paneer Pasinda (a bit sweeter) like butter paneer Dal fry Garlic and coriander naan The staff goes beyond their limits to make sure customers are happy. We entered super late like 15 mins before closing time but they accomodated us.
Surprisingly Amazing! Tried Bell Bottom for the first time with a random order—and everything was super good! The biryani, kathi roll, and aloo tikki were packed with flavor. We liked it so much that we went in the next morning for breakfast—aloo and paneer parathas were delicious. Loved the lassi shots served with them—such a fun idea! Wish the dal paratha was available though. Special thanks to Miss Hampi for being so sweet and welcoming. We’re really happy with the experience. Highly recommended in this area! Only suggestion: the tea could be better.
Had the pistachio chicken curry and Peshwari Naan which were both great! Also had a good IPA to go with it. Very nice service and helpful with any questions about the menu
Very lovely place,cozy and with excellent food. Tried the lunch deal and it was quite a lot of food! It was too spicy for the wifey,but just great for me! I recommend.
Absolutely delicious - seriously the best meal out in a very long time! Think Indian tapas, as delicately flavoured or as spicy as you fancy. Huge choice, good value, attentive/friendly service, well stocked bar, bright wee venue with a great vibe. Dog friendly. Highly recommended!
Delicious food at an incredibly affordable price. We were so blown away with the quality of the food, the variety, and the service. Would highly recommend, and will be returning very soon.
