Gujurati Rasoi

Before I start this review, I need to say that I really really wanted this place to fantastic.
My wife and I are both big fans of the sister street food stall on Broadway Market and thought that we would give the restaurant a try.
However, this place manages to deliver far inferior food at more than double the price.
Firstly, to dwell on the positives. The space has been well-​designed. There are small tables, low lighting and a nice buzz to the place. My only complaint would be that the tables are so close that you are almost dining on top of your fellow guests.
However, the food is terribly disappointing. My palak paneer was undercooked. Five pieces of lightly charred paneer on a bed of almost raw spinach. This cost nearly £12 pounds. My wife ordered a bean curry. It had such as astringent taste that she had to leave most of it. Rice and bread were an additional cost.
Service was brisk but hurried. We were left waiting to order a second drink and decided to pass in the end.
My overall impression was that this place is charging medium to high end prices for low end food. The final bill was over £55 with a shared starter, two mains and two drinks. At £30 it might have looked like decent value.
If you are looking for nice vegetarian Indian food — try Rasa up the road on Stoke Newington Church Street.
