Reviews in East London

The best curry place (just outside) The City - as witnessed by the lunchtime clamour for seats. The Meat Biryani beats anything I've had anywhere. A friend over from India said it was the most authentic Indian restaurant he'd found in London. (Oh, and the Samosas are apparently like his mum makes back home) Enjoy!

The first time i walked past Baraka i thought it would be pricey and typical like most other restaurants, but the moment i looked at the menu i knew i had to have a taste of there lamb chops with the cous cous ... if that wasn’t enough we got free poppadoms and salad while we waited for our food to arrive...the food was not just excellent but the service was outstanding and the waiters were friendly and helpful .. my meal came up to under £10 ... will defo recommend this place to everyone that wants a low budget meal and for small gatherings ... the atmosphere was lovely and the decor was modern ..

This is a little gem of a fish and chip restaurant tucked away off the Whitechapel Road. everything is fresh, nicely cooked and presented well with a good East-end friendly atmosphere. One of the best that I've tried. Lots of grilled choices so you don't have to have fried stuff.

The delicious culinary masterpieces of the Mumbai chefs combined with the warm contemporary ambiance makes a visit to Ma'ida a dining experience to remember. Enjoy yourself with friends and family in the private dining facilities, individually climate controlled with your own choice of music (bring your iPod)"..

Great place to head for if you're hoping to seek out truly authentic Indian cuisine. King prawn suka is one to have.

Been many times, love the atmosphere and had a great time every time. Large groups tend to be on long tables so better in small groups

I'd recommend to try this restaurant anyone, its a gem! I've eaten there many times over the past 10 Years and enjoyed every meal. Food, service, atmosphere and value for money you can't fault it.

so good food will recommend 2 every1.

Great service and wonderful food. The waiter recommended the lamb Rezzala and I have to say I am very glad he did, it was simply wonderful. Would definitely go back. Very cheap and good value food.

Best Italian food I have had since visiting Italy. A hidden gem on Bethnal Green

Its unreal place packed at all times.Food so good and at these prices will defo go back

We were a little apprehensive going to a banquet as I think you would normally go as a group. We were very pleasantly surprised we sat with a large group of English women three Swedish couples and one German couple. What a marvellous time we had entertainment, food & drink was of excellent quality and in abundance. Cant wait to go back

The first time I went to Baraka I had such a wonderful experience that I couldn? wait to go back again. its such a wonderful restaurant which is tailor made for the Muslim community (since it has separate seating area for ladies and has HMC certified Halal meat). It has to be said that the food and quality service is excellent. If you are planning to have a meal in Baraka and like fish I would recommend you try 'Hilsha'.

Ive eaten in BARAKA just the one time and i have to say, i had a wonderful time there. everything from service, to food to decor of the place was fantastic! I went with four of my friends, infact we had ordered too much as everything on the menu looked delicious! I? going back again soon , for a joint birthday party that ive organised at Baraka eatery, and i can guarantee that my friends will love it. Perfect!

Hawlsmoor are serving arguably the best steaks in London at the moment - complemented with some fine cocktails. If you like your meat then this is the place to be.

This is by far the best and most authentic Bangladeshi restaurant in the entire UK. It might be small, it might not have any frills but it is the best taste of Bangladesh you can have. It might not be right for those who want to have Bangladeshi food without the spices, flavours, and hot chillies. If you are looking for an English version of Bangladeshi food then go to any Indian or Bangladeshi restaurant. If you are keen to taste the Bangladeshi food like the "Machhe Bhate Bangali" eat then please go to GramBangla. I love GramBangla. It brings my childhood back to me; it reminds me of my family and Maa back in Bangladesh. It reminds me of the cuisines at villages in Bangladesh. You must go and have a taste at this place.

Excellent food shame about the presentation

Authentic food, can? complain about any things, just tasty aroma flavoured food, especially lamb chop.
