“Definitely better than your average Indian” – this East Dulwich yearling opened in August 2023 and is the work of Sanjay Gour and Simeron Lily Patel, who have other outlying hits in the form of Ewell’s Dastaan and Sheen’s Black Salt (see also). According to one SE22 resident “it’s certainly the best (and most lauded, rightfully) suburban launch we can think of in the SE postcodes” and generated a large volume of feedback in our annual diners’ poll. “If you’re looking for a bland korma you won’t find it here” – Chef Manmeet Singh Bali’s food is “unusual, if not necessarily hugely authentic, and deliciously spicy. Meanwhile the cocktails are phenomenal for Zone 2!”

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).

"Kokum seems to have broken the jinx of this location, long a graveyard for poor food ideas. Inventive but not too wacky dishes and now a big hit with locals."
