Restaurants · Leicester
Thirty years of Bollywood photographs cover the walls here — actors, singers, film posters — and children tend to spend the first ten minutes just looking around, which buys you time to order. It's built for big tables, so families and groups of ten or twenty are normal rather than a problem, and there's a kids' menu, high chairs, vegan dishes and free parking. The salt and pepper fish comes up again and again — crunchy batter, soft inside — along with butter chicken, chicken korai, lamb chops and the sharing platters, which one table called a proper belly buster. Staff are attentive, though on a busy night with a large booking food can arrive in stages. It's not cheap for a family, and the dining room is showing its age, but the cooking is the reason people keep coming back.
