Been so many times now and the food has always been beyond our expectations also the staff are 1st class.

Indian Essence is an unpretentious Indian restaurant that is easy to find from the Nottinghill Gate tube station. The food was spicy yet delicate, and very tasty. Service was professional, friendly and unhurried. You get good value for the money you pay. Recommended!

Atul Kochhar is a busy man, he quickly came to the attention of the foodie community when he was head chef at Tamarind where he was awarded a Michelin star. In 2007 he opened the highly acclaimed Benares and a second Michelin star soon followed. Since then he has opened restaurants across the globe and he is one of P O Cruise’s Food Heroes, responsible for the Sindhu restaurants on the ships. Visualizza piatti

an authentic Indian restaurant. brilliant service, beautiful environment. you were eating delicious. they have no names like vandaloo, korma, jalfrezi on their menu, because there is no grasp like vindaloo, korma, zalfrzi in Indian food for real. they have food names which would have appeared in the menu if they ever visit a restaurant in india. I recommend everyone to have a party or meet in this restaurant. I'm sure they would thank me for the recommendation.

Came here with my husband and we went straight into mains: biryani, goat curry, paneer, potato, dhal and a kulcha to share. Dessert was chocolate fondant and carrot pudding(halwa). Food was excellent and we polished the lot! Our only gripe the bread was a bit oily on the surface. My husbands favourite was the goat curry, mine the carrot pudding. At first look portions seem small but by the end of it we could hardly move. Staff were polite and attentive. Service well paced. At £90 altogether which included a cocktail and one soft drink it’s not a cheap night out, but a treat you would want to repeat. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Our search for high quality restaurants in and around Orpington received a massive boost after our visit to Indian Essence. The exterior and location are rather unassuming but do not be fooled by that the quality of the food is exceptional, befitting the connection the restaurant has with Benares. The Daal Makhani and the Tandoori Murg dishes were particular favourites and the overall experience was enhanced by the complimentary amuse bouch. However, on the downside the restaurant was practically empty and lacked any atmosphere at all although this could be due to the post Xmas blues. It will also put a pretty significant hole in your pocket, but would say it is certainly worth it for a spec... Visualizza piatti
