This place was right down the street from my hostel and it is by far the BEST Indian food I've ever had. If I am ever in London again I will make a stop especially for this place. Wonderful friendly service as well. This might just be my death row meal. Go here!

Stopped in while visiting London from America. We wanted to get some curry while we were here because we had heard it's done really well in the UK. We were not disappointed. The Empress is a small but excellent place. The staff was friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. We enjoyed everything
It was an exquisite experience. The food was very delicious, place and atmosphere are cozy, staff was very kind. If you consider to try Indian cuisine, I absolutely recommend this place 👍🏻
Amazing food and amazing service couldn’t ask for a better local restaurant. I was so pleased with the food I had the crab cox which is a soft shell crab it was amazing. My friends had items consisting of Biryani, tandoori and some vegetarian dishes everyone loved what they had. The naan bread is th
It was my first day in London, and we decided to go to this restaurant, and it was the best first day in London ever. The employee made my first day really special and the workers are so nice ~~

I made sure I stopped by an Indian restaurant during melt 3 day stay in London. I am so glad I came here! This was a restaurant located conveniently a block away from the hostel that I was staying at. We came in about two hours before they closed and they accommodated my large group of seven right a
This was the best food we had in London including a dinner that we spent over $200 on. I have no idea how this place has a lower rating than the Indian restaurant next door to it as we tried both. There is no comparison. Too bad this is our last day in London or else we would be back.
In the past I must have eaten at hundreds of different Indian restaurants, in many countries, but none of these compares to the Empress for consistent quality and welcoming ambiance. It has now become my regular Indian.
It's conveniently situated in Leman Street, near Aldgate, not far from buses an
All trips to London must include good Indian food. The Empress was extremely good. Awesome food, atmosphere, service. Must come back
Everyone knows the best Indian food on the planet is in the UK, and as an American foodie who has lived in the UK for nearly 25 years and in India for a few years as well, I can assure you that this Bangladeshi restaurant on Leman Street is the best you will find anywhere. Fantastic food and excell
Had a super tasty meal. Wonderfully friendly waiters, who all had a great sense of humour, would 100% visit again!!!!
Amazing food as always. I've been coming at least once a month since I discovered them back in 2016. I am so happy they managed to survive after the lock down.
To me, their king prawn sizzler is a must. Also the lamb shank with chickpeas is a winner (that's what I ordered tonight, as shown in the p
