Historical version 1 of New Dewaniam, SE5 0TH (view current version)

Indian restaurant and takeaway on Camberwell New Road between Oval and Camberwell.

secretlondon went here one Sunday evening in September. There were people waiting in the takeaway section but the restaurant was empty when I arrived (a couple of other people arrived whilst I was there). The restaurant was large and could seat perhaps 80?

I had a meat thali (£10) and a 660ml bottle of Bangla lager (£4). The thali was average and felt a bit small (but I was hungry). I then asked for the dessert menu. The menu had lots of choices but they only had three of them. I had a banoffee ice cream dessert which arrived solid out of the freezer.

There was a TV playing what seemed to be an Indian music channel. They had three Indian beers as well as spirits and wine. They didn't have any takeaway leaflets left and I had to wait to pay as the busy takeaway was using the card reader.

I wouldn't come here specially but if you want Indian food without having to travel (and you want to eat in) it's fine.

Accessibility: The restaurant entrance is on the side (Wyndham Road) and had a small step. The toilets are on the same level and had support bars. They weren't labeled as disabled though. The takeaway entrance on Camberwell New Road has more steps.
