We enjoyed our lunch in Love Mango today, following a dose of Cezanne at Tate Modern. We made the fatal error of overordering (as usual) but the menu was very tempting, with a range of (to us) rather different dishes. Papadums with nice chutneys were followed by starters of (I think) pea and potato chat with chickpeas, tamarind sauce, pomegranate seeds and deep fried prawns with a chilli sauce. Both very tasty and in my case (the chat) a very generous helping which left me thinking we had ordered too much for our mains. This transpired to be true. My 3 Kohlapuri lamb chops in a minced lamb sauce were so tender but I just couldn't eat it all. Neither could my wife, whose Muglai lamb korma was equally tasty. So, we had to leave some of our mains, rice and tasty bhindi and aubergine sides. We hate to leave food, but luckily we were given a doggy bag so that our daughter had a tasty dinner later! Desserts of mango pannacotta and cardamom spiced kulfi were also good. Service was friendly and efficient. With 2 glasses of wine and coffees we paid £120 (including 12.5% service charge).

Mango was EXCELLENT in every way. The food was exquisite. My son says the best Indian food he’s ever had. Ali was attentive made sure the food and service was everything we wanted and more. The lamb dish was extra spicy just like we requested. The apps and tandoori salmon were stand outs. The beer was ice cold which made us very happy! We had a fabulous meal and left very happy. It’s small and popular, but takes reservations. Highly recommend!

Very easy booking via website, also great communication from the restaurant, making sure we can arrive on time.
Been there few times before and every time the food and service was just impeccable. The restaurant is not big, and rather quiet, so you can expect overhearing other people conversations, but on the other hand you feel somehow responsible to keep your tone down, but it also create the atmosphere, hence I dont really mind. Service, from start to finish was just great. Servers very knowledgeable, helpful and simply just kind, ensuring the guests have the best possible experience. Our food has been served in the right pace ( although we said we dont mind for starters and mains to come together, because we were sharing food anyway). The flavor of SIKAMPURI KEBAB was just incredible, as it was spicy, yet not overpowering, and lamb itself was very moist and tender. Chicken dish I ordered was recommended as spicy, and I just discovered that after ordering, and although I have been offered to change I decided to go for it, and it was just delicious, so even I had to have some water, I was very happy with my choice, and left the restaurant full and satisfied. Little bit of an advice might be on the fact, that customers need to know the poppadoms being offered before ordering are not complementary, as they normally are in other places. They are not expensive, but still, it would be good to know. Other than that there is literally no other points I could think of, as once again my friends and I had a great dinner. Extra point for clean toilet, as some people judge the overall cleanliness of the restaurant this way.
I will definitely come back

We came in for lunch on a weekday, and the restaurant was nearly empty, so I was surprised at how long it took for our food to be served. The food itself was both mediocre and strange — the chicken korma tastes of too-sweet butternut squash and lacks spices, the naan was also too sweet, the potatoes and spinach seemed mushy and reheated. There was a curious black salt flavor in the green chutney. Overall I would have welcomed these strange flavors if they had been well balanced and executed nicely, but they weren't, and their portions are small for the price. Try someplace else.

Service was spotty - after finishing our meal for quite awhile had to wave server over for check. Server highly recommended the goat dish which was exactly the same flavor wheel as our other main so no variety. Food was mediocre at best - wouldnt go back or recommend.

As we were in the area we called in for a late lunch. We’d been a few years ago pre-Covid and were really impressed last time.
I should have followed my gut instinct and had the tandoori prawns like last time, as the chicken chettinad was really not much like any other chettinad I’ve ever had. Too much based on a standard curry sauce base with a lot of coconut cream, rather than the complex mix of spices that I would expect. Having said that, the service was good, the food arrived quickly and the other items including the dal makhani were very acceptable. Nice wine list too.
Bottom line… This is a nice place and I would be inclined to return but will make a different choice from the menu next time.

Prior to our booking, my friend had booked this restaurant and had the confirmation to prove this. The restaurant didn't have this on their system. We were then directed to the sister restaurant, complementary drinks were discussed to encourage us to go there. This was raised prior to ordering our food as soon as we sat down. The whole evening was marred through the rude service we received by the 'manager' from Mango India and the 'manager' at Est. India. Don't agree to complimentary drinks to encourage us to attend your other restaurant if you are not going to honour this. Then he proceeded to shout at us on the phone after we queried the bill due to the complementary drinks. Another customer had a query and was immediately seen to, however we were still left waiting, messed about with no decisions and still further shouting from a manager who clearly has no customer service skills nor telephone etiquette. Very disappointed with this circus of disrespect to 2 black females dining with others who did not swear, shout and several times had to request the manager to retrain from shouting on the phone. Despicable really.

Right then...Where do I start with this one. Visited London with my wife and little son. Googled a few Indian restaurants and came across this one. Oh my word !!! Seriously this is the best Indian food I have ever tasted. I'm Indian punjabi myself, so trust me I know what good food tastes like. This restaurant is amazing. Prices are fair, size of dishes are big, and plenty of meat on the lamb chops.
I've tried Indian food all over the world, including my wife's, & mothers home made cooking. The food from this restaurant was 10/10. The staff are welcoming, the owner of the restaurant personally came up to our table and asked us if the food was ok etc.
I can't praise this restaurant more then I have already. If your looking for a good Indian restaurant, then come here !!! The best Indian food I have ever tasted and that's not an under statement.
Thank you 😊

I hadn’t visited for, but won’t wait so long for the next visit. We introduced our friends to the restaurant and they loved it. The food was excellent and we love that the menu, whilst it has the traditional dishes, also has a great selection of dishes not seen on other Indian menus.
The four of us ordered different dishes and all were excellent. The wine is well priced and the service very friendly and professional.
Highly recommended and we will be back soon.

Had a great meal here.
I arrived as a party of one and shown to the window seat. All good. A while later someone came and asked if I wanted Poppadums which I declined but I would like a drink, which was soon brought. Along with some poppadums....
The starter was mixed meat was gorgeous. The Kebab Platter. Amazing. The lamb chops particularly but the chicken was perfectly (P E R F E C T L Y !) cooked. Please try this on your visit.
The main was a Jalfrezi, which was good, perfectly cooked again but I just felt the flavour lacked a bit of depth. It may just be me.
Garlic naan was nice but I've had better. It could also be a bit more garlicky.
Total bill for 1 beer, 1 starter, 1 main, 1 bread and an unwanted (but in the end eaten) poppadum £40

Our hotel recommended Mango for the best Indian cuisine near us. They didn't disappoint.
We shared a mixed grill, chicken curry, a basket of papadum with the sauces. Every bit was delicious.
Service was excellent as well.

We had a delicious meal here as a family. The service was incredibly friendly and the food was scrumptious. Various dishes were consumed, ranging from mild to hot, and all were expertly prepared.
Although we were full after our main course, the children enjoyed the surprise dessert that arrived especially for them.
Highly recommend a visit.

Visited Mango with my family and it was a delightful experience from start to finish. Our server, Ali, made the evening memorable with his attentive and polite service. The Chicken Tikka was succulent and perfectly spiced, while the Butter Chicken melted in our mouths. The rice was fluffy and complemented the dishes well. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a wonderful dining experience. Hats off to the Mango team!

Visited Mango Indian Restaurant last week for the first time and I must admit my partner and I were very impressed by their hospitality. Located by the banks of River Thames, 3-4 minutes walking distance and you're there!
Ash and Ali, two of the staff looked after us very well and we felt at home. Extremely friendly. Us being vegetarian, Ash also recommended some vegetarian starters and main dishes which turned out to be quite delicious! Carefully prepared and delicately decorated starters were presented in a very timely manner whilst we nibbled on some poppadoms and chutneys. Mains were also served quite quickly with no extra delays at all..
Also observed some great safety measures during this Covid-19 uncertainties, toilet and wash room was clean with all facilities you'd expect from a decent restaurant.
We'll definitely be visiting again and pleasantly recommend Mango Indian to anyone visiting Central London or River Thames area for some great and tasty dining.
Thank you Ash and Ali for your warm and welcoming experience, we'll see you again soon. Stay safe and well.

Southwark
Even before the arrival of the instantly iconic Shard, the riverside scene in Southwark had moved well beyond any up-and-coming phase of development. For quite some time, locals and out-of-towners alike have loved browsing the boutiques of Bermondsey High Street, foraging through the bounteous stalls at centuries old foodie haven Borough Market, and flocking to the banks of the Thames to enjoy some of Britain's biggest attractions such as Tate Modern and Shakespeare's Globe. Despite Southwark's many popular draws, instant calm can be achieved easily by turning down almost any side street. For more urban buzz, a quick stroll across famed bridges like the pedestrianized Millennium Bridge or the ever photogenic Tower Bridge yields access to the very core of Central London. And with London Bridge Station as this neighborhood's main transportation hub, getting across town (or to anywhere in England for that matter) is a relative breeze.
