Review of Monzil Tandoori

30 Jul 07, 15:35

Some Might Say.... 4*

...that this is the best Tandoori restaurant in Barnes, and with precious little competition in SW13, they might be right, which is a bit of a backhanded compliment.

Monzil is an unassuming establishment on Church Road, just of Castelnau, with its tinted windows, seventies signage, fading decor and crowded pink-clothed tables painting a rather dreary picture. But what they saved on redecoration and branding, they clearly spend on cooking talent and fresh ingredients.

Well-priced and serving delicious versions of all the standard tandoori fare, it's an established favourite among locals, it's one of those restaurants that has a good number of people in every night.

Plus, being opposite the Olympic Recording Studios, it's not unusual to spot the odd popstar or rock group grabbing a quick biryani before heading back into the studio for another take.
