Housed in a former Victorian library, Cinnamon Club has become a magnet for power-brokers and politicians. Expect a colonial-style atmosphere, with high ceilings, a gallery of books and leather seating adding to the clubby vibe. Service was as smooth as Indian silk, friendly and focused.
Executive chef Vivek Singh's accomplished take on Modern Indian cuisine is based on robust flavours from across the subcontinent. Starters of crisp-fried courgette flowers, filled with tender marrow flecked with fiery red chillies, made a marvellous match with tangy tamarind sauce. A dressed-up Mumbai beach staple, pau bhaji, was equally satisfying - crushed potatoes, folded into softened tomatoes, red onions, peas, ginger and tart pomegranate, and served with a buttery roll. Mains too were top-drawer; a fillet of fried sea bass, cooked to perfection, combined memorably with fruity green mango and coconut chutney.
Only the murgh methi (a juicy sautéed chicken breast) was let down by its plain appearance, and needed a sauce to enliven the mustardy accompaniment of fenugreek leaves. Puds, especially the molten chocolate mousse, hit the sweet spot.
Such quality doesn't come cheap, and the wine list, although expansive, is expensive too. A special-occasion establishment to savour.

Extremely disappointed , the food is way over priced for the quality. I am a restaurant conoseur and reviewer, and I can assure you that this is no better than your average Indian take away. The location is great, to bad the building is not edible....
A major disappointment. We went to celebrate a special occasion and neither the service nor the food lived up to the hype. The level of service was, in fact, appalling. We had dirty glasses. We had to request the wine list three times before it was brought to us and the waiter tried to pressure us into ordering food less than five minutes after being seated and before we'd had a chance to see the wine list. The wine wasn't served until after we'd had our starters - and then ONLY because we had to ask for it twice! The food was mediocre. We'll never eat here again. There are plenty of Indian restaurants in London with better food and MUCH better service.
Lovel Indian restaurant tucked away in westminster and is often called MP's canteen. Had their tasting menu but they also offer cheaper menu around £20 or so. Over a place to dress and impress. Highly reccomend to all!
How are you supposed to book the 2 for 1 breakfast offer when it doesn't give you a breakfast option in the "book now" panel? Honestly...
Lovely food, abysmal service,out plates whipped away before we had finished eating and being asked to leave the table the minute we finished our meal as people were waiting. At £300 for 4, not what I expect!
Just feel that its important to stress the point about service. Ate there with a group of 5 last night. Food was good although expensive. Service was terrible. A catalogue of errors resulted in a thoroughly dissapointing night.
