About The Painted Heron
The Painted Heron has been recommended to us so many times by so many diners that we are happy to now recommend it to you. Winner of a big restaurant award early in its career, The Painted Heron is a charming and original Indian restaurant tucked away on an unassuming corner of deepest Chelsea. Head chef Yogesh Datta uses the freshest of seasonal ingredients in his innovative dishes, so the menu changes daily. The dining room is light and airy, a series of interconnecting spaces on different levels that are dotted with interesting English artwork, and the clientele tend to be food-lovers of all kinds, but especially the grownup Chelsea set. We can vouch for the starter of crab with red onion and chilli in dosa pancake, the main course of double lamb chops tandoor roasted with mint, the peas and baby corn in fenugreek curry, the nutty naan, and the ginger ice cream. The wine list is pretty terrific with more than thirty available by the glass. The staff are swift and smiling and we can't blame them.

Review
We dined at The Painted Heron on Saturday night - their busiest evening. The service was impeccable - we were seated and served promptly and staff were courteous and helpful at all times. The food was exquisite; the portions were plentiful and the selection and choice was extraordinary – the Dal was simply the best I have ever tasted and the seasonal vegetables were fresh and tender. Yes, the cost of the meal was higher than average, but this restaurant is not average and you get what you pay for.

The Painted Heron's Indian food is as good as any in London, although prices have been creeping up (£35 per person with beer but no wine). A white-walled, relaxed, informal place with tables not too crowded together, it's a pleasure to have dinner there.Review
My brother and I had a truly lovely experience at the Painted Heron last night. The food was delicious; the dining area is crisp,clean, modern and calm , the service was excellent and we felt perfectly relaxed having our private conversation. I shall certainly look forward to going there again.Visitors
