The Himalaya

I was in the area for an appointment. And I had Google this place assuming that is another franchise. I got there and I had ordered food which is usually the typical as I didn't want to take any risk by trying something new. So got butter chicken and other items. Despite the fact that the food was below average. I must rate the waiter as he was so humble. I could tell he was new to the job. He didn't even mention to us in a conversation. I could see him making alot of effort towards the customers that there were. He was being polite and ensured that every customer is happy with their food and drink. He kept going to each table to ask if they need anything else etc. I am the kind of person that I need my food to be at certain standard and customer service to be on point as at the end of the day I'm paying service charge etc. But today I thought its a small family restaurant and they're trying to make some business before the close of the day. It was good to see someone work ethically and trying to do better.

I cannot give enough praise for this restaurant. It might well be one of the only true Indian restaurants left in South East London. It remains in traditional decor and has been around for 50 years. It has an enormous menu with massive variety and is very well priced. God knows where they got the chef from, but please, please keep him. The food is plentiful, well cooked and service is personal and efficient. We have eaten in many times and had takeaways and both are brilliant. No frills with the decor but the ambiance is great. Highly reccomended.
