Oh my God, I had another amazing vegan meal in London. This restaurant is in the hotel that I’m staying at the Piccadilly West End and it’s amazing. I had the jackfruit fried and.Saag!! And the hankie bread is beyond beyond. Please don’t miss this Indian gem!!

This is one of the few restaurants in London that serves Roomali roti and is highly recommended. There is a good variety of food and it is of good flavour and taste. The only critique I have is that I found the food to be overpriced given the portion size. So from this perspective it isn't great value for money. However, it is worth trying at least once.

A cosy little spot located in hotel! A very warm and friendly atmosphere here. Not a lot of seating but we managed to find a spot without booking at around 6pm. The menu has a good mix of non-veg and veg. Food was delivered in good time. Really good flavours and as it was a quick bite, we opted for light starters. The hanky romali roti is a must! Very fluffy and soft! Overall a pretty good experience with pretty good food! Not too experience either for central London prices.

Soho store still listed on the website, but appears to be permanently closed. Wasted trip, sadly. Edit: 2023 Soho is now reopen. Dining room very small, and bookings highly recommended. Favourites continues to be the lamb chops, and the masala fish.

Authentic north Indian/Pakistani food. Roomali roti is something rare to find in London and lives upto it's name! My mum who's north Indian enjoyed the food as well, so thumbs up! I would say though it would be good to have more choice on the menu. Shami or Chapali kebabs would be nice because in Lucknow, we eat roomali roti with kebabs. Also make dahi bare/balle with urad daal (not moong daal). Furthermore ,I think they should rename the place not hankies (aka the meaning of roomali) but why not roomali since it's their signature dish! All in all we enjoyed the food, it is highly authentic with great service.

This is a small cozy restaurant attached to the Hotel Piccadilly West End. You can also order food to your room. The food is tasty with spice level up to three chillies, 🌶️ 🌶️ 🌶️ The curries are very fatty you will be full with one curry and three roomali rotis. If you want to try some Indian hot food this is place for you. Bear in mind, the place is advertised as Delhi Street Cafe but unfortunately it’s a false advertisement, there are no street food from Delhi on the menu.

Lovely food something very different to the usual Indian cuisine. We visited the Soho branch, unfortunately it was quite small. The service unfortunately was not great. If you are looking for some snacks in between breakfast and lunch best to come here. The portions are quite small , it's not somewhere you can have a dedicated meal for lunch or dinner. But a bit pricey for the portion size. However I salute you for being very unique with some of the food and having a twist .
