Fantastic dining experience in a unique and tranquil space. The service was second to none, very attentive without being intrusive. The space is also very comfortable and elegant without being pretentious. Last but by no means least, the food and cocktails were out of this world. The monkfish and black dal were mind blowingly good as was the biryani. Genuinely an unforgettable dining experience.

Kachori was recommended to us by a family member, what a great recommendation. We travelled from South West London for my daughter's 20th birthday and it was so worth the journey. The staff were very welcoming and attentive from the get go, we had a great table (a booth). The food was absolutely delicious in all respects and came at exactly the right time. The staff were kind enough to bring my daughter a complimentary birthday cake at the end of the meal and gave us some complimentary drinks for the birthday celebration. What a fabulous experience. I can't recommend highly enough.
