The restaurant was opened in 1999, and the name translates quite literally as 'sophisticated flavours' and this is the ethos behind the innovative menu. With an emphasis on refined yet creative Indian cuisine, the menu incorporates both traditional classic favourites and original new dishes that apply eastern flavours with a western twist. Acclaimed favourites include Indian Home Smoked Salmon, Lamb Rogan Josh and Chocolate Silk, a dish that has been greatly imitated by other establishments across the Capital.
Located in a prominent position, the grand building that we occupy was formerly a bank and has retained many original architectural features including the carved high ceilings and double height windows. The sumptuous interior lends itself to the rich vibrancy of India during the colonial era incorporating a palette of rich colours; ruby, green gold, crimson and purple. The main restaurant seats a larege number of dining guests and is available for private entertaining by appointment whilst the bar can host private drinks parties.
Since opening our doors we have received a string of industry accolades including Best Indian Restaurant in Great Britain, Restaurant of the Year in the Restaurateurs Awards and to date is the only Indian restaurant to hold four prestigious AA rosettes.
