Camden Tandoori Restaurant

We used to eat here but stopped when they changed the name to Curry 4 U and we thought they had a new owner. We are happy to find that it is still run by the same friendly owner, and we have been enjoying their flawless Lamb Jalfrezi and Madras since. They are not too greasy or garlicky.
They offer a fantstic deal at lunch time. You can choose any curry from the menu plus boiled rice or pilau rice for £2.50. Or you can have Biliani for the same price. What are you waiting for? Don’t miss their superb lamb curry. I promise it’s worth travelling for.

Not much to look at but the lunchtime special is a sizeable portion of top-​notch curry for a great price.

I used to live around the corner from here. It’s no great looker from the outside or inside and to be honest if I hadn’t lived close by I probably wouldn’t have gone in. They changed the sign to ‘Curry 4 U’ — super tacky, but still also known as Camden Tandoori. I’ve had many takeaways from here and recommend the chicken jalfrezi and lamb or chicken tikka biryiani and the tarka dahl (soupy, garlicky goodness). The chicken is always great as is the tender lamb. The naan bread is also super fresh and soft. It’s your classic curry takeaway but super good, nothing fancy or trying to be to modish (definitely no Indian ‘tapas’ or other silly buzzwords here and all the better for it.) The portions are huge too and they do a meal special: curry dish, rice, naan for a £8.95.
Now I don’t live so close but still go there from time to time when I get curry cravings and it’s just as good as it was.
