Established in 1939, I first ate here in 1984. Consistently good value. Their chicken dhansak contains twice as much chicken as some other indian restaurants. The egg fried rice is superb. I've just tried the madras - excellent, not too hot. The bhuna is good too. I had a vindaloo which had one piece of potato in it - the rest was meat.
Their (very) spicy papadoms are small but a real treat.
Some unusual menu items: egg curry; meatball vindaloo. Seafood is prawns - no fish. They have almond, mango or pistachio kulfi for dessert.
One waiter is dumb, attached to a rope and the bill is accompanied by Murray Mints. They sometimes close early so don't leave it until the last minute. You might remember they once had other branches, one on Aldgate High Street, where Boots is now.
(This restaurant is on Alie Street, on the corner with Mark Street: Google Maps has it wrong.)
