About Paradise Indian Restaurant

On Denbigh St, Paradise Indian Restaurant serves vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes with table service, staff taking orders directly at the table. The menu spans milder choices like korma alongside spicier options such as lamb vindaloo, with lamb dhansak and paneer also on offer, and desserts round out the list. It takes walk-ins rather than reservations, and it accommodated diners without a booking on a busy Saturday night. A meal for one runs under £20.

    “Unbelievably tasty food, amazing and attentive service, all at a reasonable price, what more could you want! I have been a few times with my girlfriend, and then had my 30th birthday dinner here with a large group of friends, and we all had an amazing time with some incredible food, would highly recommend!”

    “Best Indian meal in London. I cannot say enough good things about this place. The family watched a show at Victoria palace and we ate here after. The service was incredible. Very fast. I had the cheese paneer and the lamb vendaloo. It was fantastic - spicy! Perfect.”

    “I’ve been coming to this Indian restaurant for years and it’s undoubtedly my favourite place in London for Indian food! Syed & his team are always fantastic and they always go the extra mile. The food (and spice) is unmatched! Thanks for always saving me a table!”

    “Paradise is my favourite local restaurant. I have lived locally and been coming here with my family for 35 years. As a child, for a special treat every few weeks, we would get Indian takeaway. If it wasn't too cold out I loved to go pick it up with my dad and be given an extra after-dinner mint chocolate while standing in awe-struck admiration of the dumb-waiter. With teenagehood and maturity my parents started to occasionally take us to eat in the restaurant itself. Nostalgia doesn't always live up to the hype - but in this case, it does. As far as I can tell, the food on offer is the same as it was in my childhood, and every bit as delicious (only I am a more adventurous eater these days). When hosting foreign guests, we always take them here. The staff patiently wait as we peruse the menu and then order the exact same things we always choose. On repeat visits, the guests usually make a point of asking if we can go back. Today, I was stressed and boycotted making myself dinner at the last minute. So I marched over for some comfort food to cheer myself up. It's quite special to go someplace where you are recognised, especially in this era with restaurants popping up all over catering to every taste. So I basked in the warm glow of a familiar environment with a tingle of spices on my lips. I feel extremely well taken care of. Paradise, indeed!”

Customer Review Summary

Diners most often praise the lamb, with one describing a lamb dhansak so tender it could be eaten with a spoon and another pairing a spicy lamb vendaloo with cheese paneer. Close behind is the range of the menu, which reviewers say caters for every taste, from a mild korma to hot dishes, and the desserts get a mention too. Several call the food delicious, and one calls the food and spice unmatched. Staff come up almost as often as the dishes, described as friendly, attentive and quick, with one family noting fast service when they ate after a show at Victoria Palace. Reviewers also call the prices reasonable and the place cheap and cheerful. Long-time regulars, including one who has been coming for 35 years, say the food tastes the same as ever and that they feel recognised. One reviewer says the team squeezed in a couple without a booking on a busy Saturday night, and another thanks the restaurant for always saving them a table.
