Veeraswamy Restaurant in London

Reviews

1. Nic Banister ★★★★☆

   Situated just off Regents street with an entrance off a side alley, we visited for an evening meal. Doorman and then lift to the actual floor the resturant is on. Cosy and well presented throughout. We ordered a number of dishes including a chicken tika, lamb sheesh, scallops, aubergine and naan basket to name a few. Overall the flavours were there and clearly good quality. The tikka was flavourful and tender and the spice was there on the lamb. However, the pricing. Its Regent street so any price goes but really didn't think it was worth it. There is a £60 per head minimum fyi which doesn't help also. On top of that, there is also a foot note on the menu about flash photography and intrusive photos, presumably to ensure the low lit cosy ambeince is preserved. However they didn't care that much when a large table where making a lot of noise prior to seating right next to us.

   My husband and I booked in for our Birthday dinner. The food was delicious and there were quite a lot of options to choose from, even for vegetarians. The service was excellent and I appreciated that we were not rushed into the next course of meal. I was also served a cake for my birthday which was very kind and made my day! Thank you so much Veeraswamy team for making me feel special on my birthday.

   Brilliant dining experience - Weekend Lunch Menu Servers were friendly and attentive making sure they double checked allergens. All dishes were bursting in flavour, beautifully plated and left us full and satisfied. Can particularly recommend the spicy paneer starter and butter chicken main. A Michelin 3 course for £48 - can only recommend

   We had a great anniversary dinner here. Our food was amazing! This was the best Indian meal I have had (and I have been to India!!!!). Our main dishes were lamb stew and curry and we definitely cleaned them up!!! Service was excellent. The space/location was very special. Old world charm with meticulous decorations. I look forward to coming back again!!!!

   We visited for weekend lunch, and were not disappointed. The interior of the restaurant is impeccably decorated and well-kept, with a bright, open feel. Most seats have a view out over Regent's Street, and even if you don't the splendour of the restaurant is a very fair compromise. The menu is varied with some creativity to the dishes, and appeals to a variety of dietary requirements too. Portions were generous and the food felt fresh, flavours balanced, and even the classics felt they had that extra touch of excellence to them. As it was a birthday visit, we were also gifted a chocolate mousse cake and birthday card, a very welcome gesture. Overall, a vibrant restaurant with comforting yet impeccable food, at a very generous price point - would thoroughly recommend!

   I booked his restaurant for my Husband’s birthday and the food was delicious. The staff were very helpful and generally attentive. At the end they bought out a lovely little treat and was a perfect end to the night. The only thing this restaurant lacked was ambiance as in there was no Indian music. For that reason I am giving 4/5 stars.

   What makes this restaurant so special isn't just that they elevate Indian cuisine to spectacular levels (and, wow, they do!) it's also the warmth of the staff every time. Highly recommended for a special occasion, and I keep going back!

   The food was amazing and very fairly priced. There were many great options for vegetarians, omnivores, and pescatarians. The drinks were delicious. My husband and I loved the service and the relaxed environment. I really recommend the pineapple curry - I’ve dreamt about it!

   Food is 4/5 (on taste) but ambience and presentation is 5/5. If you're celebrating, it's a place to book. Also it's apparently one of the oldest Indian restaurants in London serving since 1926. Drinks are not bad either and much more reasonably priced than some of the other bars in the area. Overall good value for money for a fancy dinner (or lunch!).

   As a Michelin starred fine dining establishment with a lot of history, the food is only a part of the experience. In terms of ambiance and decor it's quite tastefully done, and you get a sense for how much history the restaurant has. As for the food, it's definitely good, but I was expecting just a little more considering the price and prestige. As some others have mentioned, I was also a little disappointed that there's a dress code mentioned on the website but not particularly enforced.
