Price: Moderate
• Indian • Raynes Park
Sai serves authentic Punjabi cuisine with tandoor cooking a speciality. The spice range is broad, from minimal to high levels and vegetables forming the backbone of the menu. Wheat is the staple food of Punjabis; however, they do enjoy eating rice at festivals and other special occasions. When it comes to food, each region within Punjab has an entirely different preference, for example, people in Amritsar are particularly fond of stuffed parathas and milk products. The philosophy of life for many Punjabis is to eat, drink and make merry. They are lively people who are extremely fond of eating good food. In the preparation of Punjabi food, onion, ginger and garlic are used extensively to enhance the taste of the food.**NEW***SUNDAY BRUNCH 11am to 3pm, try Indian street food from different part of India with unlimited KADAK CHAI.****LUNCH****Now open for lunch Tuesday-Saturday 12-3pm.

    Had a lovely valentines meal at Bocconcino Soho. Great service from a slightly older waiter from Brazil with glasses, there was a band roaming around the restaurant playing requests and they were fantastic, made it a very special evening. I thought the tuna and beetroot starters could have done with a little sweetness for balance and some sides with the steak at the price would have been good but overall a great night…thank you.

    One of the pricier joints in the city, but unlike some places - here you paid for quality. The service was friendly, relaxed and helpful - something you *sometimes* don't get in higher end restaurants . The food was delicious, we all had pasta, and the waiters are willing to alter recipe's depending on what you like- for example a member of our party didn't like chilli's, so the waiter simply offered to make it without. The craft Italian cocktails was a newly uncovered gem, unexpected to find in Mayfair, and the atmosphere inside was delightful.
