I found the dal to be the best of the dishes, with the 'vegetable of the day' curry spicy but slightly disappointing. [[Kat]] was happy with her chicken dish (which was brought out in error, as she had ordered pork, but was offered free of charge while the chef readied the pork curry), while I found the paneer to be excellent. In addition, I tried the fresh lime juice (available either sweet or salty), which was refreshing although with an odd taste incorporating both salt and sugar. |

Indian 'tapas'-themed restaurant, which specialises in offering its food in small dishes, not unlike a thali. Somewhat following this theme, Imli even has a tasting menu at £16.50 or £22.50 per person. At lunchtimes, there is a special £7.50 menu. (Menus are available on the website.)
On our visit, all of our party opted for the lunchtime set menu. All meals included small bowls of papdi chaat (a very tasty combination of 'wholewheat crisps', bean sprouts and sweet yoghurt), dal curry, a curry featuring 'vegetable of the day', and fresh-cut salad. The fifth bowl was either a meat curry or (for those choosing the vegetarian option) a paneer dish. The meal was served with rice and a small dish of chutney.

Service was attentive without being overbearing and the food was brought out promptly.
