Halal Reviews for 1947 Fitzrovia

I tried the three-course meat menu and overall it was okay. The butter chicken curry was the highlight, with a velvety texture and perfectly grilled pieces of chicken. The naan was soft, fresh, and a great companion to the curry. The starter lamb kebabs weren’t for me. They were too dry, which took away from the experience. The dessert, however, brought things back up. The warm gulab jamun with ice cream was a comforting and satisfying finish. The setting was lovely, the service was good, and the portion sizes were decent. We would come again.

Lovely food, nice place. Staff are helpful. We chose from the a la carte menu, portion size was average. Not the cheapest place but nice food, similar to many places in London maybe overpriced for what you get. On the flip side they offered a set menu which looked very good value for money. We were asked if we wanted poppadoms whilst the food was been made, menu was taken so didn't know the price. Charged £8/£9 for mini poppadoms with chutney which seemed a little steep in my opinion. Not sure if this is a sales tactic. We ordered pilau rice and instead got boiled rice but rectified the mistake and bought the correct one within a few minutes. Recommend the Stuffed Paneer, and also the Spinach. Definitely will go back again and recommend to try it.

Food was delicious! We got the non-veg set menu and 5 dishes from the express lunch menu. Everything tasted really good. I was going to get a cocktail as they looked delicious too but when I saw the prices, I changed my mind. But the food was delicious and will definitely be making another visit.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at 1947, an Indian restaurant that truly elevates the dining experience compared to traditional local establishments. The ambiance exudes sophistication, making it an ideal spot for a fine dining experience. The restaurant offers both an à la carte menu and a set menu at a reasonable price, giving diners the flexibility to choose based on their preferences. I opted for the à la carte menu and was eager to see what the chef had to offer. For starters, I ordered the prawns and calamari, both of which were a delightful beginning to the meal. They were perfectly cooked, crispy, and packed with flavor that really set the tone for the evening. However, the main course was a mixed experience. The fish was overly salty for my taste, which diminished the overall enjoyment. The chicken was decent but could have benefited from being a bit more tender. Despite these minor drawbacks, the meal as a whole was satisfactory. Overall, my experience at 1947 was enjoyable, marked by excellent starters and a commendable atmosphere. With a few adjustments to the main dishes, it has the potential to be outstanding. I look forward to returning and exploring more of the menu.
