I recently placed a large order for 17 people and I couldn’t be happier with my choice of Banjara Restaurant! The food was absolutely fantastic. I ordered a selection of four curries along with rice, naan, and bhajis, and everything was delicious. The Boona, in particular, received rave reviews from everyone – it was definitely a standout! The team at Banjara provided excellent menu recommendations - including vegetarian and nut-free options - and their communication throughout the process was top-notch. The food arrived on time, and the delivery driver was friendly and professional. Thank you so much for making this event so memorable!

We can’t recommend this place enough! The whole team are such kind, friendly and gentle people. Our waiters were observant and attentive to our needs. The food was outstanding (we had several vegetable dishes, mango chicken and a lamb dish, which was so tender! garlic naan bread and onion bhaji were so fantastic) The waiters had the perfect balance of knowing when to help and then disappear to give you privacy...it created the perfect atmosphere. Thanks Banjara !

Super traditional Indian restaurant in an amazing traditional Kentish Town. If you’re coming this way I would recommend stopping by for your evening meal. Suitable for family and a really nice welcoming atmosphere. Thank you

Excellent in every respect. The very high quality of the the food is always consistent. Service and welcome very friendly and highly respectful - but never familiar..... we only go to Banjara - in spite of the huge selection of local Curry houses. Always recommend with complete confidence. My favourite is Lamb Chilli Massala.
