For what it is, this place is phenomenal.
This is no-frills dining, but it is done with care. I had the chicken tikka on naan bread with veggies (lettuce, tomato, cucumber, onion) and chili sauce. The chicken was cooked to order, and the bread was also made fresh. It was all really tasty. I'm not a spicy chili sauce fiend, but I got a small dollop on my meal and was glad I did. It was a great kick of heat, pushing me a bit but still staying within my comfort zone. I got a nice little sweat going but was never uncomfortable. The meal certainly qualifies as good value given that it set me back a very digestible £4.50 while also filling me up.
I wouldn't call this 'fast food' Indian, as it took them at least 15 minutes to prepare our meal. That's fine by me, but it's good to know that this is not necessarily an 'in and out' kind of place. And it's cash only, so plan accordingly.
The seating area is small and would struggle to accommodate more than 10-12 people. But as long as it's not too busy, you're fine.
Definitely a great option for the area. -

I found this London gem on yelp, and wanted to share a review to help others find the place too. For about 10£ i was able to get two half curries, without rice, and two naans. This was enough for two hungry travelers who had walked 13 miles that day! We got the chickpea curry, and the spicy chicken curry, both were so flavorful and delicious. The naan was made in front of us and the fresh naan was literally taken off the grill and placed directly onto our plates on the table.
Hands down the best meal I had in London, even compared to the much more expensive Indian restaurants I went to. I definitely recommend to anyone who likes to eat. -

Wow, just awful. Firstly, they give preferential treatment to Indian and Pakistani folks: we entered and asked for tandoori chicken, one of the few things they make to order. Dood in front of us ordered it and they started making it. We asked and they said no, we have no more. Next guy in line orders it, and they make it for him.
We ordered curry and tikka masala. We got 2 masalas, and when we informed them of the mistake, guy behind the counter looked at is like we were complete assholes, did nothing, and then he kept our change still staring at us like he was furious! We slunk out in shame.
Yes they make nann fresh. Its still bad and dry. The masala we had was the worst i have ever tasted. It had little clumps of fat in it, congealed.
Do yourself a favor and go 5 doors down to Spicy Food World, which is a total 5 star indian food place. Spicy Food Plus is a no go zone. Stay far, far away. -

Spicy Food Plus. Plus what? The tastiest and freshest naan you're ever apt to taste in London, that's what!
This rather nondescript hole-in-the-wall about halfway wedged between Victoria Station and Pimlico Station, is (in the words of one well travelled foodie friend of mine) home of the best naan outside of India. Yes, this otherwise ordinary curry joint on Wilton Road has one thing going for it in spades: a tandoor in the back corner manned by a veritable artisan providing made to order naan and roti that are as delicious to watch being prepared as they are to devour!
On my last visit, Spicy Food Plus was pumping with an impressively trans-demographic array of Londoners. Between heaping bites, the well heeled business man sitting next to me, turned to his dining buddy to thank him for the brilliant idea of stopping there for lunch. Indeed, Spicy Food Plus is a wonderful lunch spot to keep in mind. I highly recommend forgoing the rice and ordering a couple of pieces of the fresh naan, then sitting back and watching it baked before your eyes.
Of course, the plain (£1.20) and garlic (£1.60) naan are delectable but, if you've been especially good and deserve a treat, go for the Keema naan. Stuffed with minced lamb this plateful of naan is packed with flavour and at a mere £2.50 is a veritable steal. And should proprietor KMA Khan take a liking to you and offer a spoonful of homemade hot sauce on the side, by all means take him up on it! Still hungry? Try the sweet Peshwari naan for £2.50.
Not to be confused with the Spicy World balti joint just up the road at 76 Wilton Street, Spicy Food Plus is a true London gem. All the ridiculously inexpensive food on the menu is full of spicy flavour and the naan is absolutely to die for! -

This is the quintessential Indian fast food shop, they have the spiciest dishes I've tried and believe me, and I've tried spicy. I came here urged by my boyfriend, he has been bragging about the somosas here, so as an obedient and ardent lover of Indian food I came. I have to say I was a bit disappointed; the somosa was super greasy and the sauces where so over spiced it was impossible to understand what I was eating. Mind you they where extra hot, so perhaps it was my fault I and should have let my food cool a bit. My boyfriend still swears by it, so I guess it's a matter of taste.
