‘Racist’ would the word to describe their service attitude at this day & age; moreover in the UK. So if you are a non-white & especially an Indian, stay away from this restaurant as the restaurant feels insluted to serve people with a dark skin. Irony of the situation is that the staff iteslf (especially one of the old grumpy short statured man from Bangladesh, sadly living in UK for the past 25 yrs & doesn’t deserve to); hails from the land of brown tone. I got to experience the most horrendous customer service experience of my life & that too unfortunately in London, which has the largest Indian community living outside India. I am an Indian and have travelled to 41 countries & more than plus 100 cities spanning the 4 corners of the globe; lived & made good for myself in 4 continents and now residing in Scandinavia. Never ever before so far, I got to hear and/or experience a prejudice against any community until I came across this man from Bangladesh serving in the Chilli Shaker, Soho, London (just in the by-lane behind the Piccadilly circus). In brief what happened: I entered the said restauarnt along with my wife and as usual stood at the enterance to be seated. This old grumpy staff memeber, pointed the finger from one far corner of the restaurant to be seated on the table just besides the enterance; not once but twice. Upon approaching close to us, I politely reminded him of some basics rules on how to extend a customer courtsey, on which his response was that I know Indians and how they are; so I refuse to serve you, get out!! Stunned by his repsonse, when I reciprocated to challenge, his pointed finger got stuck at my face with a stammering broken english at the top of his voice, regardless of the fact that he still has 3 white couples/families sitting in the restaurant. The generalization of a community & moreover of the one on which the said restaurant is making their bread & butter is the worst ever example witnessed by both me & my wife from many aspects. My friendly advise would be stay away from this restaurant so that he gets a lesson that isolation of a community; means isolation of you from rest of the community. I intend to make a formal complaint to the Mayor of London so that the city doesn’t get a bad name because of such people in our today’s society. I also intend to publish the same on every possible feedback forum, so please bear with me.
It was a Friday evening and Piccadilly Circus area was bustling with activities. We were at Piccadilly Circus searching for this place as it was shown as a nearest Indian Restaurant by Google Map! At last we found this not so big Indian Restaurant which was pretty much occupied. We ordered Chicken Bhuna, Chapatis and Rice. Chapatis were good but Chicken Bhuna was not up to the mark. Vegetarian members in our group tried Chana Masala, Alu Gobi, Dal Makani and Raita. These vegetarian dishes were surprisingly better in taste as compared to few other Indian Restaurants which we tried in City of Bath and Oxford.
Located near Picadilly Circus this is a Indian cuisine restaurant. I went there as the nearby restaurant Chowki had closed down (which was pretty good by the way). Not wanting to go any further I tried this. It was pretty empty on the Monday evening I went there. Ambience was not so great and looked more a Bangladeshi run place than an Indian one which meant lot of sweetness in the curries. I ordered dal makhni was not not good at all with the sweet flavour. Also I ordered veg mix platter starters which were ok but were dripping in oil and were most likely the frozen ones refried. Overall not a good experience – will not go again.
Place is pretty good
