Nice!! Good food excellent staff and freindly atmosphere with good drinks
Great surrounding and wonderful staff We really enjoyed it and will return very soon something magical about the st Katherine dock area Have a wonderful Christmas
Very attentive staff. Very tasty food. Lovely setting by the docks. Definitely worth going. Will be going back again when we are visiting London again
The lunch menu here is very reasonably priced and is of excellent quality. The service was attentive and we all really enjoyed our meal. We will be going back!
The food is really good, however it would be ideal if there were heaters on the table. The service is good a bit slower than usual. A few items were forgotten. The staff were good, attentive, and the waiter had nice glasses
Very good app experience. Nice staff, food was amazing and good for special nights. We were 2 and had 2 drinks/ 2starters and one main course and the bill was £50.
The service was good, although our waiter couldn’t pour our beer properly. We had the King Cobra which is poured at your table but it looked more like an ice cream than beer, perhaps a little more practice is needed. The food was excellent though! I asked how spicy a certain dish would be and the waiter described it perfectly, he was spot on, I’m so glad I ordered it! I would recommend this place and its in such nice surroundings.
Great food, good service. Highly recommended. It was our 4 th wispy and we could definitely go back again. Had a really good time as always.
The restaurant is nicely located amidst St. Kathrine’s docks. The menu is extensive and food is really delicious. We went on Friday to have dinner at 7pm and the service was friendly and quick. Can easily recommmend
Food and service were amazing. We have been here before and will certainly return again. Thank you for your hospitality. Lovely surroundings and with the Christmas tree outside in the square the atmosphere is magical. Many thanks.
Second time I've been. This time I went for the slow-cooked lamb. Every element of the dish was cooked perfectly and the spices were well balanced without being either dull or overpowering. Very nice layout and atmosphere in the restaurant too.
I live locally and have dined here many times and the service, ambience and food always excellent. If there is one thing that wasn't great this time around it was the service. Waiters took quite a while to take our order and the food a bit longer than usual to arrive.
Great place, and location. Nice ambience and excellent food. You can enjoy the sights around the tower and feel in a different world when entering this place.
My server placed my dining partner's food on the table and then dropped mine on the floor. They disappeared without apologizing or saying a word to me. My food was brought out about 10 minutes later with almost no apologies. No one asked to refill our drinks. They did not bring out the desserts that were meant to come with our meal and then we were charged for an extra meal. There are many other lovely restaurants in the area to try, I would pass on this one.
Very delicious food and cozy restaurant by St Katherines docks. The staff was nice but could have been a bit warmer and more forthcoming. We will be back again! :)
Great food and a very nice resteraunt. Will definitely go back. The service wasn't quite as good as I hoped as we were left for half an hour before we had our order taken. Would not have seemed so long if we had been asked if we wanted a drink when we first arrived. However, as I stated the food was excellent and well worth the hiccup at the start.
tasty food, well served and good ambience. The restaurant was fully booked, which I booked our table through Quandoo which was very efficient which made for a fun evening.
Food was great but the waiter was surly. Forgot some of our order and was extremely grumpy to be asked for it. No smiles whatsoever
Arrived at Mala with 3 friends and were shown our table which was situated in the front and at that time perfect for us. The manager was very accommodating when we asked to be moved due to 12 people celebrating a 'Friday' I presume sitting next to us. The food was good the service was excellent and I would recommend the restaurant and the area.
Très bon accueil et la qualité des plats et vins parfaite pour des prix correctes pour Londres. Je recommande d'autant plus que quand vous sortez du restaurant l'environnement en charmant.
rustige ambiance en prachtig gesitueerd aan de st Katerines Dock. De curries waren prima van smaak. Attente en nette bediening. Gunstig prijspeil voor Londense begrippen.
Somewhat disjointed service. Food ok. Seemed a lot of money though for what we had. A bit too spicy for some. It also was a bit cold in the restaurant.
Had a wonderful birthday experience with eight members of my family , we were give great service with a smile , food was great , will revisit soon and will recommend to all .
Food was good but service was very slow. Should work more on this area as food quality was nice but serving staff was less. Recommended for good food and location but not for service..
We had a lovely evening here. The food was great. The staff were friendly and every time around, when you need them. Thank You for a nice dinner. Looking forwards to come back.
Really disappointed with the waiting staff and manager. High priced given locality, for average food quality. They were really slow to respond to requests- 3 waiters in charge of service! Received a lip-stick marked glass which was taken back- after waiter inspected it and said he had seen worse! Later in meal, new drink, exactly same old lip-stick marked glass- now not amusing. Complained, and got an indifferent, non emotional non-satisfactory apology. Manager blaming "new" member of staff saying "I have been watching him all night long" and then blaming poor service/ attitude on a big party going on as a private function :( ..Token gesture of drink taken off the bill, but actually was after a heart felt apology for the service- Won't be going back
Went for a birthday lunch and well the food was okay not wow, it came out cold. We went for the lunch set menu which is okay for the price. There isn’t any mocktail options other than mojito. The starter - prawn Puri was delicious but very oily. And it wasn’t chilli enough. But that’s just me being very picky. Location is great. Wouldn’t really go again.
Food was tasty and portions very generous. Good service. I will be returning. Starters was an excellent chicken tandoori, the curry I had was equally satisfying.
Service was ok & the food was great. Lovely setting in St Kathryns Docks. Restaurant not busy as late on a Sunday but good layout for privacy if it was.
Great food and service lovely setting staff very attentive and friendly
Mala is a very decent choice to grab good quality food and drinks in a nice clean and ambient setting, food is better than the average so called Indian restaurants in London
Amazing food, great atmosphere, friendly service! Would highly recommend this little gem, has a beautiful outlook over quay. One of London’s hidden gems, thanks guys!
The food and setting are great, the service slowed down a bit as the restaurant filled up. Not terrible just got a little bit slow.
Excellent meal. Only downside was that one dish wasn't too tasty and no king cobra but the chefs choices were excellent. Enjoyable evening, would definitely recommend.
I recently had a meal in celebration of my birthday at Mala. The food was authentic and delicious. The waitresses serving us were pleasant and helpful. The timing of the meals were very reasonable for a Saturday evening. The atmosphere was a mixture of chit chats, music and the noises from the kitchen; all very pleasant. Would definitely recommend it.
Great food and service. Lots of varied choice too. Will be going back. Would highly recommend. Drink before in the Gouman Hotel with great views over Tower Bridge.
Great restaurants; love the authenticity. The food was lovely and the service too. Would recommend a visit if you're in town.
Brilliant food especially the Garic Naan, and Sultan was our waiter and he was really friendly. We’ll definately go there again and the location was great!
I didn't find the staff very friendly and the whole experience was very rushed, they obviously just wanted to go home!! Saying that the food was tasty and the actual restaurant decor and setting was very nice, the staff just need friendly personalities to actually earn the 12.5% gratuity they add to the bill.
Food was flavoursome, timeley delivery. They worked out how to get all the meals onto the one trolley this time, which hasn't always been the case in the past.
