Blue Ginger is clearly popular with Kenton's well-to-do Asian families. Porsches and Mercedes crowd the car park, and flat-screen TVs and black leather couches dot the interior. The menu brilliantly captures Delhi's thriving Punjabi-Chinese food scene, so a meal could start with either pan-fried masala fish in a delicious ginger, chilli, coriander and peppercorn crust, or masala mogo (deep-fried cassava patties tossed in a distinct sweet and sour sauce). Cultural purists might prefer paneer bhurji (shredded paneer cooked with tomatoes, onions and coriander), or the fish masala, a helping of tilapia fillets in a tomato broth infused with ginger and garlic, and topped with roasted mustard seeds and fresh coriander.

Have to agree with the other reviews -went here when it opened food etc was great. Went a week ago and all had changed -poor staff, average food, would not bother to go there again.

Blue Ginger is disappointingly awful food and service! They don’t have any dishes which were freshly prepared, everything tastes the same and the dishes are too oily.
Service is extremely with capital E… POOR. Overly priced old food, unfriendly faces, smelly ambiance and rude management.

Our food was served like 1.5 hours later (starters) then with the mains they forgot our rice/breads which came after another 30mins. Management was very hasty and not listing to find a solution.
Nowadays you see a lot of these wanna-be restaurants opening up, calling themselves INDIAN whilst they have no clue what Indian food is nor they have any service etiquettes.

Never go here.

Booked to dine at the restaurant last Sunday for my wife and I. After having problems parking up due to very bad parking allocations and waiting list, we were told we were not on the books. This is something we didn’t want to hear after driving 20 miles to get there. The only thing the desk manger could offer us is a small dirty table by the bar, with only was hardly fit for a single person. Failing that, wait 45 minutes until a table is clear. He could not offer any apologies or any discount for trouble – instead rejected our custom!
It was recommended by a friend. But from the experience we have had that day, wouldn’t be suitable for my worse enemy!
