Farzi London

We went to Farzi for their Valentine’s special and had such a lovely evening! The food was incredible. The Tangra chicken and the seafood/lobster seekh kebab in particular were great. The cocktail pairing was also really thoughtful, loved the rose and date one. The staff were so sweet, and server Anjali made the whole experience great. The live music also gave the whole place such a nice vibe. Would definitely recommend for a special occasion!

Wow! What a find. A different kind of curry with style and sophistication. Such a joy to be surprised. Delightful dishes that were different in quality, taste and presentation, and reasonably priced as well. Great staff and ambience. Really excited to have found Farzi.

Really impressed by the ‘pre-sales’ interaction from the team at Farzi as well as the dinner service itself. I needed a private area booking for up to 10 of us two weeks before Christmas and with only 7 days notice. Savio on the customer service team really helped me to sort out the date, time and area we needed for the evening. The meal itself was wonderful. The Butter Chicken Bao Buns, Lamb Kebab, Fish Gulzar and Beef Nihari being particular highlights. The reality though is that everything we ordered was excellent, great levels of flavour and heat throughout and everyone in our party thoroughly enjoyed all of the dishes. The great thing is that the dishes are all a little different to normal India cuisine which surprised all of us and left us wanting more. The service during the meal was superb, we were waited on by 2 or 3 different team members during the evening ensuring that we had great food regularly and that wine and water was topped up effortlessly and without any prompts or nagging from us. The surroundings in our private area as well as the decor of the restaurant are all beautifully colourful yet tasteful, and even at the start of the evening when our private area was a little chilly it was remedied immediately and we ended up being very comfortable. I can’t recommend Farzi enough, not just for the amazing food but the staff were brilliant throughout - it’s this that makes the difference. Every single one of our party commented on it and all came away with the same feeling: we will be back again.

We booked the thali menu and overall had a decent experience, though a few things stood out. The first surprise was that naan and rice weren’t both included — it was one or the other. With a thali, you usually expect both, so that felt a bit unexpected. The papad was slightly soggy rather than crisp, which was disappointing.The curries were okay, fairly average. On the positive side, the service was good.. smooth throughout the meal. The location is fantastic, right opposite His Majesty’s Theatre, making it a very convenient and perfect spot for a pre-theatre meal.

Atmosphere was nice and the service was good too. I went for the pre-theatre meal which was cheap, the only fault would be the lack of meat in the mains (3 piece of chicken in the chicken railway and 2 ball pieces in the fish curry). There was plenty bread and rice to mop up the sauce and the daal to share was good too.
