Well worth a visit

My friend had found this online (she is onion and garlic free) and I am so glad she did - lovely welcoming staff, so many vegan dishes all clearly marked, and our server was brilliant at knowing what was in everything and what could be veganised/made nut free etc. It was so hard to choose what to eat, as almost everything on the menu was vegan or could be made vegan. The vegan 'chicken' was great, and the chickpea salad was so huge I ended up taking some home!

Pros: Lovely knowledgeable staff, So many choices!, Really great location and nice vibe

Cons: Maybe slightly pricey for what it was, but London!

Peaceful gem in London

What a beautiful, charming, peaceful place! I had a very heavy day yesterday and woke up tired, but coming here made me feel so much better - the wonderful decoration, the delicious food with great vegan options (the restaurant is vegan/vegetarian), the lovely service I received from Nirali (she’s the sweetest!). I really recommend this place if you want to nourish body and soul away from London’s madness

Pros: Atmosphere, Mix of flavours, Service

Cons: Not in the “cheap” list (totally worth it though)

Decent curry, nothing special

Great range of vegan options, clearly marked, and staff confirmed which were vegan went brought over.

The puris were very good but curry's quite average. The vegan chicken texture was nice and a good edition compared with tofu, but the sauces were quite average and lacked something I found.

The space itself didn't seem comforting like a restaurant and almost like a hotel lobby...not sure if that was just the section we were in.

Some good Indian options.

Many vegan options (although, disappointingly, no vegan daal). Plenty of breads are also vegan. This is a good restaurant with decent options. The food tastes good. The venue is clean and modern but, I found it a little clinical. Service is sometimes a little abrupt and cold

Great vegan selection, but the taste just wasn’t there for us. Also, we asked for our dishes to be spicy and they were not spicy at all.

Onion and garlic free!!!

I was having a bad IBS flare and I found this place where apparently the whole menu is onion and garlic free. It’s absolutely great. Also the food was delicious and the location is great right at Islington square.

So many amazing options

So many options of fusion between traditional south indian and typical brunch foods.
everything was carefully prepared and most of the menu is vegan or can be made vegan.

Pros: menu is clearly labeled , yummy food , nice staff

Absolutely delicious!

Almost the whole menu is vegan or can be veganised! The food was incredible and the staff are very helpful. They make there vegan yohurt in house and it's the best I have ever had.

Vegan afternoon tea!

It was very good value for the price and the food was all round pretty good. I think the sandwiches were the best part and some of the desserts were a bit of a miss. I thought the chai tasted a bit burnt, but my friend likes hers. Overall one to try if you want an Indian vegan afternoon tea!

Masala Dosa was really tasty

The Masala Dosa I had was great. I definitely preferred the more peppery sauce over the creamier one, but it didn’t take away from the dish. I went on a Saturday and got right in but they were pretty busy so the less than super-fast service was understandable.

*Edit* to add that I'm from the US and this was the first place I ate in the UK. Since then I realize the cultural differences in wait/service experiences and this place was perfectly within the accepted norms.

Shame it's gone veggie to vegan

Disappointed to hear this was a vegan restaurant that added dairy. Went for the afternoon tea which seemed decent value at £29.95 per person for starters, sandwiches, desserts and a hot drink. Also added welcome mojitos for £6. Some of the food was pretty spicy, but it was a nice mix and good to have an alternative afternoon tea and try lots of different things. The best bits were the chicken wrap, samosa, and shortbread cookie.

Tasty Vegan Jain Thali

An absolutely fantastic vegan Jain thali (which was perfect as I am allergic to onions) and a vegan cheese dosa. Brilliant service, great location - we will definitely be back soon. Omnom is hopefully opening in Wales soon too!

Pros: Vegan Thali, Vegan Cheese Dosa, Kala Chana Salad

Cons: Too far away from Cardiff!!!

Elegant Inspired Indian Food

Ordered the Kachumber salad
& the Masala Dosa. The spice levels were perfect and the dosa breading was perfectly thin and crisp. The atmosphere is open and the service level is good (and quick)

Pros: Variety of vegan dishes and vegan options , Inspired Indian cuisine , Excellent service

Solid Indian option

We were looking for an option on Sunday evening and we're glad to find a table here. There was still quite some space.

Service was very fast and attentive.

We had the love to share platter (with beet root kebap, Aloo bonda, samosa and chickn bites), which was okay. The masala dosa was very tasty, our favourite! The gobi manchurian was tasty but a bit much of the same so we were glad we could share the dishes.

A bit bland

The food looked really good, but disappointed a lot in terms of taste. It felt bland, especially by Indian standards. Service was nice, though.

Seems to be getting less vegan

All the food was tasty, though a little spicy. I particularly enjoyed the chocolate cake.
Before going I looked online and most of the dishes had a vegan option, but the menu I was given in person was maybe 50% or less vegan. It seems a move in the wrong direction.

Pros: Nice food

Cons: Could easily be more vegan options , Quite expensive

Can never say no to dosa

Plenty of options but I always go for masala dosa if it’s on the menu. The mango lassi was particularly amazing. Lovely staff.

Really good food and really good service😄
