Fortis Green, Indian Restaurant Guide

2023 Review: This cute family-run Muswell Hill curry house with a small terrace for outdoor dining prides itself on its Mughal-inspired north Indian cuisine, which goes down well with a local clientele.

This “excellent local” Indian in the low-key setting of an East Finchley shopping parade trades on its good-value tandoori dishes and curries.

“Wonderful Indian tapas” draws an enthusiastic local crowd to this Childs Hill spot which celebrates its 10th anniversary this year (“we’re lucky to have it in this part of north London”). Some fans, though, “prefer the setting of the newly opened Muswell Hill branch” and say “the divine tapas is just as good as the original”.
