Harden's survey result
Summary
“The food is served with a bit of theatre” in this splendid old school hall not far south of Tower Bridge (Grade II listed and part of what was once St. Olave’s Grammar School) – nowadays a contemporary Indian venue that’s part of Lalit Hotel Group’s flagship UK property. It’s consistently well-reviewed in our annual diners’ poll, but at less busy times can seem “quiet”.
Summary
“Hints of the Raj” at the Lalit Hotel Group’s flagship property in the UK (the group has sites across India), occupying “the old hall of a former grammar school” near City Hall (a big property, designed by the architect of the Old Bailey). Reports are not huge in number, but cite “attentive service” and “refined dishes from across the subcontinent”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
