Fitzrovia branch of a chain of South Indian/Goan restaurants in the West End. Until recently the restaurant on this site was known as 'Neel Kamal' or 'Neel Kish' (depending on who you ask).

Kat visited with a group of six others on a weekday lunchtime in mid-December - we were the only customers at first, a few smaller groups arrived throughout lunchtime.

Most of the group opted for thalis ('vegetarian', 'non-vegetarian' and 'fish' options were available, all around £11-£14). All were proclaimed very tasty, although the portions could have been a little bigger for our hungry party. Kat opted for a Pork Mas (£6.50), described as a medium-hot dish with vinegar, ginger and garlic. Although it was enjoyable and not at all oily, I couldn't really taste the vinegar and it wasn't very hot - I was left thinking that I should have gone for the vindaloo after all. The side dish of Paneer Pakora (three for £3.50) was a little on the dry side but the batter was lovely, and was good comfort food for a cold winter day.

The staff were friendly and helpful, and the service was quick - though if I was in the area I would probably only bother to come here again if Ragam (1 minute round the corner) was full.

Last visited by Kat on 15 December 2008. Opening hours taken from takeaway menu, December 2008.
