Evening ruined by loud people - Edit
The food was delicious. I had a vegan thali and, apart from one which was too spicy for my personal taste, all of the curries were lovely. My only criticisms regarding the food are that it all came out at once and it could easily have been 100% vegan. The thali included a pudding (sheera) which I’d rather it hadn’t so I could have it later, warmer and in a larger portion.
Read moreThe main problem was the atmosphere. One loud group of people ruined the evening for everyone. I would come again, but I’d pick a quieter time and hope that group didn’t return.

Amazing value - Edit
Shared the vegan thali and dosa with a friend and it was SO MUCH food. Everything was delicious, and our waiter (Isaac) was so friendly, remembering our specific wine orders (even the wines are specified vegan/veggie). Such a great find!

Family Favorite - Edit
Always enjoy eating here, their lunch time special is great value for Central London, and for me, it is the best place in Central London to dine. Great Chana Masala, Samosas and Dosas. Just great Indian food, wish they had a branch in Brighton.

Excellent vegan curry - Edit
Vegetarian traditional Indian restaurant with vegan options clearly labelled. We went for the vegan thali platter which was very tasty and filling. Varied range of curries and not too spicy. Fast and friendly service.

I enjoyed the fried lentil doughnut and my Zeera Aloo was nice.

I will definitely come back!

Unfussy with great vegan choices - Edit
It was a pleasure to find this unfussy, traditionally Indian restaurant at such central location. Perhaps the masala lacked the spice punch but the dosa was crisp. Also, contrary to previous reports, most dishes were vegan when visited in Feb 2020
Read morePros: Mostly vegan, Varied menu
Cons: More heat & spice would have been great

Disappointing - Edit
Came with a vegetarian and a 'reduce-itarian'. Vegan options tbh were limited, and the quality when they came was really disappointing for the central London pricing. Like a (much less oily tbf) average takeaway Indian in quality to be honest.
Read moreDosa disappointing, curries disappointing. Samosa ok but not great. The place was pretty rammed at about 6:30-7pm - we booked but staff were so busy that they couldn't really check, and then were really rude prompting us to order (genuinely twice inside ten minutes) and charging us £6 for poppadoms before we had seen a menu.
I don't know why this is rated so highly, there are so many great options in London and this isn't one of them.
Pros: Able to book in advance
Cons: Expensive, Boring range of averagely executed options, Really busy and they dealt with this badly/rudely

Paper dosa - Edit
We got a mixed veg curry, which was pretty good but nothing spectacular. The paper dosa was amazing - that’s the thing to get!

Sagar - Edit
You know what? No... No I don't need to go to this location again, it's pretty bad in many ways.
Read more1. The service is completely awful, I say that after visiting a few Sagar locations. This one is consistently bad. I waited forever for them to take my order and finally had to go to the waiter stand to place my order instead, same when it came time to paying my bill. The servers are always like this here, or they are just unfriendly overall. Unacceptable.
2. I asked for extra spicy and I'm pretty sure there wasn't a single spice in my food. WTH???
3. The dal was really awful, don't get it.
Try one of the other locations instead.

Vegan choices - Edit
We came here on a Saturday night about 9:30pm and it was very busy, even at 10:30pm people were still piling in so it was great to see a vegetarian restaurant that’s so popular.
Read moreAll of the menu is vegetarian but over half of it was vegan so there is lots of choice. We ordered the Thali so that we could try lots of small dishes. My husband really enjoyed his, it came with 6 small dishes, a rice, s poppodom, a bread and a dessert for £18ish. I enjoyed mine but it wasn’t very hot so I sent it back and unfortunately they were a bit grumpy about it which was disappointing. Once I got a hot version I did really enjoy it and our regular waiter was very friendly and funny.
I would recommend the place as the food was nice and the service was good but it is quite expensive.
Pros: Lots of vegan options
Cons: Quite expensive for what you get

Great food and many vegan options - Edit
A fantastic menu with so many options including allergens listed within the menu eg gluten free/garlic or onion free/ what contains dairy etc. So many vegan dishes - big portions and good prices considering the area. The perfect vegan stop off before a trip to the theatre! We enjoyed the bhaji, vegan thali and curries.
