    Lovely ambience and food, and very friendly staff. We were served by Tanish who accommodated our birthday request last minute, and made our dinner experience very memorable! Definitely recommend.

    The food was as delicious as the restaurant was beautiful! Excellent service and the menu had a wide range of options. We weren’t hungry enough for the “taste of India” sampler at the front of the menu (I’m sure I’m getting the name wrong there, but it was something similar with selections from different parts of the country), but we would go back on a different night just to try it!

    My wife and I came here for our anniversary recently and the experience was great overall. The food was by far the best part, more or less everything was delicious. The rasmalai milk cake was simply incredible. However I have to say what would improve things were if the staff were more attentive. It was quite difficult to get the attention of staff many times throughout the evening.

    What a beautiful dining experience I had here! From their sophisticated flavoring, to their services, to the eye catching decors, this place was such a lovely treat. Prawns are perfectly prepared🤤 The Butter Chicken had the special spice in their flavor that I don’t find in typical Butter Chicken elsewhere and that elevated the dish to another level, it was absolutely delicious🤩 Also I was obsessed with their Ghee Rice which was the best one I’ve ever had♥️ Big gratitude to the whole Colonel Saab team for being so wonderful and leading the Indian cuisine in London!
