“ Booked here for meal before concert nearby what a great little restaurant. The food was very tasty and fresh made to taste the spices not the heat. The chickpea salad was so refreshing and tasty I could have eaten it all night. ... ”
“ Popped in here for a quick bite before a gig and we LOVED it! Excellent host and table service, great decor and plenty of seating for a smaller restaurant. Food was very tasty, good variety, generous portions packed with flavour and cooked to perfection. Lovely clean toilets. Highly recommend! ”
“ Really yummy food and good prices! I ordered a Lamb Biryani (not pictured) and the Aloo Tikki Chaat (pictured). Staff was attentive and I was sat very quickly. I arrived pretty early though and it did get busier as my meal progressed. ”
“ Incredible Indian spot - tasty authentic dosa and chaat, and the most friendly restaurant owner in Kentish Town for sure. Highly recommend. Had 2 dosas and a chaat to share between 2. ”
“ It's my second time coming here and I just want to keep going back for more! Babuji is an authentic and family run restaurant and you feel that family warmth as soon as you walk through the door. The staff make you feel so welcome and are so lovely, helpful and attentive throughout your time there - got any questions? They can certainly help and guide you. The menu consists of incredible, unique dishes (as well as some of the usual suspects) that taste AMAZING. Don't even get me started on the desserts! Really well priced - we just went to town on this visit and ordered lots! It really is a lovely place to go for dinner, I'm encouraging everyone I know to get down there! ”
“ Good place. Everything I had was delicious, flavorful, and the prices were fair. Kind service that actually gave honest advice as to how much food to order (so many places encourage over-ordering). Recommended. Btw, their masala dosa is excellent and does come with sambar and coconut chutney, the scattering of negative reviews are misleading - my experience matched the positive reviews and I have worked and traveled a substantial amount in India. ”
“ Amazing place! Super friendly staff, I enjoyed talking to them right from making the reservation to talking to them in person. The food was amazing too! Had a team dinner here with a group of 7 and loved the bottomless chai, masala dosa and vada pao. Ended up doing a takeaway of papdi chat after eating to the brim! Will visit again and definitely recommend. ”
“ This was the best meal I had during my London visit. I wanted to have some good Indian food, and I found phenomenal Indian food. The service was lovely and the atmosphere was charming. I ordered the Butter Chicken, Paneer Tikka, and Butter Naan, and for dessert I had their Pistachio ice cream on a stick, and it was the perfect level.of sweetness, creamy consistency, and no mess. How does it stay on the stick til the last bite?! I'm so happy I found Babuji! ”
