This family-run residential restaurant has been around for well over a decade, serving up traditiona...l Indian staples to the residents and business people of Pimlico.

Hand-painted artwork creates colourful focal points that show off the neat white napiery. Top dishes include lamb shank, Jaipur jalfrezi, korai chicken, and a fantastic lamb taba larih - a medium-spicy North Indian hit. Very nice ice creams, especially the honey pot. Polite all-Indian waiting staff. Please be aware that a credit card is required to confirm bookings of 8 or more people at Great Eastern Tandoori Restaurant.

(30 John Islip St, Westminster in London, United Kingdom)

Tucked away on the unique Art Street, this opulent and capacious lounge bar, complete with 10 metre-...long bar, must be one of London's better kept secrets amongst the cocktail cognoscenti, celebrities, and the local Westminster political set. It's easy to see why - the place is gorgeous! The modern European bar menu ranges from classic British comfort food in the day, such as Brixham fish and chips, to mezze-style dishes in the evening, many priced at £4.50. Known for its mules, Millbank Lounge Bar offers six interpretations of this classic combination of vodka and ginger beer. Of course, there's always the wine, and a particularly fine set of whiskies. Funky tunes come courtesy of DJ Tom Roberts every Thursday and Friday from 7pm. For that extra special evening , book a booth (they fit two to six) or the vibrant red section, furnished with generous ruby sofas... Opening hours: Daily 12noon-11pm [moreless]

(34 - 38 Vauxhall Bridge Road in London, United Kingdom)

Modern design meets traditional Indian virtues and the result is a marvellous marriage of the two. T...his smart restaurant is very contemporary, kitted out in spicy orange and regal purple with lovely decor all around. The dishes have been slightly modernised, but only in the sense that we're all eating more heathily these days, so fat content has been lowered and fewer artificial colourings are in use. The food is delightful, spicy and fresh and winning. In fact, you will probably find yourself surrounded by purring regulars on your first visit. Dishes include the classics you love, like lamb tikka, samosa, onion bhajia, tandoori specialities, special duck dishes, classic chicken tikka masala, featherlight naan and all the trad curries. Baltis are available if you ask nicely. The service is warm and helpful and the entire experience very nice indeed. Opening hours: Mon - Sun 12 noon - 2.30pm & 5.30pm - 11pm [moreless]

(147 Lupus Street , Pimlico in London, United Kingdom)

Nutmeg’s evangelical band of regulars have only one complaint it puts them off trying any of London’...s other modern Indian restaurants. This smart shiny floored, white-walled venture specialises in outstanding ‘golden oldie’ curries like vindaloo and dhansak, alongside house specials like hash mussalam grilled duck in a rich lentil sauce. Sirloin steak and chips, and baked salmon come to the rescue of those suffering spicy food apathy. Very nice staff. Please be aware that the last sitting time for lunch is 1:30pm. Opening hours: Mon - Sat 6pm - 11pmSun 12pm - 10:30pm A terraced garden at the rear (a rarity in an Indian restaurant in London) makes for lovely al fresco diners. [moreless]

(38 Morton Street in London, United Kingdom)

Pimlico Tandoori, located on Morton Street in central London, is a a charming neighbourhood restaura...nt run for over 30 years by the Meah family. Recently refurbished in fresh apple green tones, the stylish eatery is loved by locals and curry fans alike for its authentic homestyle cooking and friendly atmosphere, and Pimlico Tandoori is always busy with a business lunch trade during the day, and with famiiles and couples in the evenings. The kitchen uses organic produce where possible, and we love the Chicken Masala cooked with fresh green herbs and spices, pan-fried garlic and ginger and crushed pomegranate seeds; the King Prawn Suka – grilled prawns simmered in a sweet and sour tamarind sauce; and the classic Lamb Rogan Josh curry. Opening hours: Mon - Sun 12pm - 3pm & 6pm - midnight Pimlico Tandoori has been serving up classic curries in central London since 1975. [moreless]

(94 Grosvenor Road, Pimlico in London, United Kingdom)

Pomegranates is the sort of quirky, welcoming, cosy, club-like place that, once you discover it, mak...es you feel like you're one of London's insiders. The seventies decor is original, not retro, and features antique mirrors and paintings. But the focus is on the food. What's cooking? Pomegranates has a very reasonable claim to the best steak tartare in London from Aberdeen Angus beef, but the cosmopolitan menu also features West Indian curried goat, and Cantonese roast duck. Opening hours: Mon - Fri 12:30pm - 2pm & 7pm - 11:15pmSat 7pm - 11:15pmSun closed [moreless]
