   The servers hover too much and are to quick to push you to order your food. Constantly interrupting conversations to ask us to order. Think this is a one and done restaurant. Food was lovely but nothing like my experience at Kutir.

   Top class Indian Dining experience. Quality of the food was exceptional, as was the service. Pick from the house signature dishes - you won't be disappointed. The selection of dishes and the fantastic combination of flavours were something quite unique in this style of cooking.

   The restaurant is beautiful and the service was exceptional. The food was tasty but just far too spicy for us to be able to enjoy the meal. Even the food they brought out for the kids was just ridiculously spice. While we appreciate that Indian food is always spicier than other cuisines, it has to still be enjoyable. In our view, this food was simply too spicy. Strongly recommend the kitchen consider varying choice levels for customers.

   Thank you for your feedback and kind words about our restaurant’s ambience and service. We’re delighted you found the space beautiful and the service exceptional. However, we’re truly sorry to hear that the spice levels in the dishes impacted your ability to enjoy the meal, especially for the kids. Your suggestion to offer more varying spice levels is greatly appreciated, and we will certainly share this with our kitchen team to ensure that all guests can savour the flavours to their liking. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for a more tailored experience in the future.

   Amazing food as always. Chef Rohit is brilliant and will definitely bring a Michelin star to this restaurant, similar to his previous restaurants. Great location, cocktails were a must along with the tasting menu. Yum.

    Our experience at Vatavaran was exceptional in every way. From the welcome we received, the waiting staff and how attentive they were and who took the time to explain the dishes, to the drinks, the ambience - everything was perfect. We have eaten at many of London's high end restaurants, and ths ranks right up there - maybe our new favourite, and there are many fine In dian restaurants in the capital! We would thoroughly recommend!
