Reviewing the FAMOUS DISHOOM - OVERRATED OR OUTSTANDING?

After so many recommendations, I've finally managed to get to the UK's most popular Indian restaurant, Dishoom. With branches in Edinburgh, Manchester, Birmingham and 7 in London, I took a trip to Canary Wharf to see how good Dishoom is. Lets give it a go!

I am Indian and all my English mates like Dishoom. I do think its pricey for what it is. If you went in the evening your meal would have cost a lot more, also think its a bit of a concept/theme restaurant rather than really authentic. I always prefer to go to local Indian restaurants run by families over chains to get proper Indian food.

[@GaryEats]

I agree local restaurants always, however I’m not sure the price changes evenings 🤷‍♂️

[@mattwuk]

Agreed mate

[@zatarawood3588]

The funny thing is that Dishoom is a family business) It was started by the younger members of the Tilda rice family) It is kind of authentic, albeit to a certain type of Indian cuisine, maybe slightly softened for western audiences. Personally I think its quite good, even though the dishes aren't exactly my all time favourite Indian dishes, but its well put together, flawlessly executed, & is quite tasty. Problem with most local Indian restaurants in the UK is a) Majority are Bangladeshi run, which arguably still is Indian food, but again a regional cuisine b) Im often just disappointed by the quality of the food as its not well thought out and prepared c) Those local restaurants often use preprepared curry sauces, if you look closely into the kitchens you can see big vats of Pateks catering sauces which explains why a lot of say Lamb Baltis all taste the same Lol. If we talk about the desi pubs they are different story usually not the best either with a few gems here and there if you go on a good day, & the posh Indian ones Trishna, Cinnamon Club etc are often just odd, a fusion of some kind of European haute cuisine & Indian food. You can do a lot worse than Dishoom, & I really like the way they do certain things eg they look after the staff and for instance take them all to India for training so they understand different foods, spices etc. That explains why the staff are usually in a good mood, & enthusiastic about the food) Would love Gary to visit India to check out different foods, would be really interesting)

[@northbankgooner6126]

@@zatarawood3588 My point is its a commercialised concept. Right down to the dishes being served. How many Indians do you see in these establishments? It a brand that is designed to make English/British people feel like they are eating Indian food in India as opposed to the UK and it works. Indian food has soo many variables, every family cooks a particular dish in a different way. That's what makes independent restaurants unique, some are good some are bad. If you go to a restaurant in Wembley or Southall you wouldn't get hardly any of the food on the menu in Dishoom.

[@northbankgooner6126]

@@GaryEats Ive been in the evening, a meal including drinks doesn't give you much change out of £100.

Went to the Brum Dishoom a couple of weeks ago - I thought it was brilliant - had the Okra and gunpowder potatoes as well! As a vegan, the options were huge and all the food seemed very fresh and very tasty. Service was excellent as well. It was a work thing, so I wasn’t paying the bill either which was a bonus - think it probably is on the pricey side!

That’s excellent to hear Alastair, it was very good not outstanding, but if someone else is paying then never any complaints 😊

[@monicanath4859]

What a fabulous review! These upmarket places usually have food which isn’t too good but this was a delightful surprise. That roti looked so delicious. I would have loved to see you combine it with the potatoes by wrapping a piece round a piece of potato which is how it should be eaten.

[@GaryEats]

Thank you very much Monica

[@DamonSlater]

Dishoom gets a lot of heat but genuinely speaking as an Indian, their dishes are authentic and traditional. Their biriyani is exactly how we make it at home probably once a week. The tandoori roti is exactly how we make it except we make it on the tava. And the potatoes are exactly how our aloo sabzi is, except we chope the potatoes smaller. This is authentic and traditional North Indian food. Sure it's pricey but it is good quality tasty goodness.

[@GaryEats]

I enjoyed the food, wasn't the best I've had but certainly nowhere near the worst

[@GaryEats]

Very good point Mat. Thanks!

[@geordiejones2]

Hi Gary and Mr Cameraman. Well what a great place you went to tonight, as soon as you arrived there the smells got you, that says it all to me. I know there is only so many dishes you can try, but i was hoping you tried the lamb, i always think that tells you a good restaurant. I did smile when you said the Okra was fresh (i.e. not black like the other day) and i was hoping it was because of my e-mail i sent re said vegetable. Your score i thought was ok, i gave it a 9/10 but like i always say, I did not taste the food so bow to you on that one. Chris.

[@GaryEats]

I think you're right as well regarding the lamb, Chris but I've had it a lot recently so fancied a change. Take care mate!

Thank you Gareth, the menu and prices are the same throughout the country so I’m guessing no 🤷‍♂️

[@zatarawood3588]

In Canary wharf yes they are all finance guys) ... however if you went to the original one in Covent Garden they would be shoppers & a lot of tourists, if you went to the Kings Cross one it would be a lot of art students as a fashion school is just around the corner ... I did wonder myself how they afford it, god knows, but anyway it depends on which one you go to. Id say with prices rising everywhere, in London its only 20% more than you'd expect to pay in a modest local Indian restaurant these days. I think Gary paid 15 quid for the biriyani, it would be at least £12 even at the cheapest Indian restaurant you went to nowadays) If you went to a posh central London Indian restaurant they would charge £25! So all in all, I think its ok for what you get)

Gary the price is not to bad as for London for different areas of London . As i thought that was cheap for Canary Wharf as seen other people eat in that area for different food they paid more for it than you would somewhere else for the same food . But that food looked out of this world when they put it on the table . For the Birry that is the proper way it is served meat always on the bottom and rice on the top .

[@GaryEats]

It wasn’t cheap but you’re right it isn’t a cheap area to eat, food was very good but not outstanding 👍

It is a heavy hardback book, quality printing with lots of treats including the Okra Fries. Based on the cookbook alone the place should be amazing, and clearly you have tasted the evidence! Mark.

Hi Gary, we used to live a stones throw away before we moved to Harrow Place in central London. Been there a few times and never been disappointed, always great service, great food, great ambience, overall a great place. But it's not my favourite Indian in the Docklands, but it's a great place for lunch or dinner for those days you don't feel like cooking. I gave it a 7.5 out 10, but maybe I should reconsider that score in my database, as it was after our first visit. Glad you enjoyed it and enjoyed your time on me old "turf".

Another very good review Gary. Glad to see quality/standards have kept up since I went a few years ago. Like you, prefer Naan to Roti (ideally Peshwari Naan).

[@GaryEats]

Thanks Steve 👍

I am VERY impressed Gary(and yet another to add to my London dining list😅) when i next fly in🎉 Pricey- yes it is but those portions would be perfect for a meal for 2 people and a cost for 2 of £40 is acceptable in London( especially considering its £6 a pint in London) lovely review Gary your the best dining reviewer out their.

[@tonyfletcher7524]

I agree with that and even adding another side dish to make sure it was enough for 2 people would still only be 23/24 pound each for a tremendous meal

[@GaryEats]

Glad you liked the look of it Geoffrey!

Hi thanks for another terrific video review; I’m a huge fan of Didhoom but you should’ve gone to the soho / Kingly St venue - it’s atmosphere is incomparable to the corporate vibe of Canary Wharf. Also you can venture down stairs and see the whole kitchen brigade at work include the hot plate , tandoor etc. Oh another thing iam thoroughly recommend their breakfast bacon naan. Keep up the good work and keep em coming! J

[@GaryEats]

Very kind Jamie a breakfast will come soon mate 👍

Another stunning review. I love the idea of Indian food and have periodically tried it but I am a ‘heat’ wimp. I like very mildly spiced, flavorful food. It certainly feels Dishoom would produce a meal that I could enjoy. And, as I live in Reno, I would love those prices - a lot cheaper than a meal out here. Thank you.

[@GaryEats]

Very kind John and I hope you’re all good in Reno, take care

[@richardhinchliffe1678]

That meal looked lovely gary and yes it’s expensive but it is in the heart of the city so you expect them kind of prices but once again you have nailed it once again a fantastic review

[@GaryEats]

Very kind Richard appreciate you commenting as always 😊

[@arleneewing658]

When we visit London we occasionally go for Breakfast, my husband has the Bacon in the Nan Bread and I have the sausage and Bacon on Nan Bread without the cream cheese it is brilliant with all the flavours, you should give that a go sometime 👍

[@GaryEats]

I will definitely

[@htschultz]

Great review (as usual) Gary--thanks! As a couple of Yanks visiting London, we love Dishoom (we ate twice at the location farther north, within easy walking distance of our hotel--the St Pancras Rennaisance). Funilly enough, we also had the potatoes and chicken biryiani, got brussel sprounts instead of the fried okra, and naan is always better than roti lol. I do agree it's a bit pricey, but given the overall experience (high quality, trendy and lively/fun surroundings, great ambience, etc.), it's a decent value in our opinion. That being said, I know you've reviewed several Indian restaurants lately, including some you may prefer over Dishoom, at some point I'd love to see you begin to rank your favorites (by city--especially London, as that's where we tend to spend the most of our time vacationing in England) and by cuisine of course (top 3-5 Indian restaurants, top 3-5 fish & chip shops, top 3-5 roasts, etc.). Thanks and keep up the great work!

[@GaryEats]

That is an excellent comment thank you, and a really great idea thank you 😊
