Mala Indian Restaurant

Great restaurant, great food, great location. Have to say always look forward to a trip to Mala, highly recommended, turn it into an evening a pop into Dickins beforehand.

We were a group of 6 and were looking for good Indian vegetarian food so this was one of the best choice available in the area.

One of my favourite Indian restaurants in London, good service, good price, lovely location. Will keep coming back, thanks you for a lovely evening :-)

The location, food and ambiance was good but the service let the restaurant down as it was abrupt and impolite and not what you would expect for the pricey cost.

Very pleasant ambience, attentive service and first class food. Highly recommended venue for private or business functions. The staff could not have been more helpful. Thank you!

The food was great, but wait staff was very rude which was really off putting. Read a bunch of reviews about the rude service but figured we’d try it anyway, but I can definitely confirm those comments.

I have been twice now and thoroughly enjoyed both occasions. The service is excellent, as is the food, and of course the location is in one of my favourite hidden gems of London!

Was a lovely place, food was great. The only reason it didn't get a 6 from me was because they got the bill wrong so we ended up with 2 bills in order to cover the dinner. Wasn't a big deal, but it took longer to leave than it would have and then there was a rush to trains. Overall a very good time and service was very quick.

The waiter ignored us several times until the Manager finally took our order. The food was bland, colourless and tasteless. This was my 4th visit but I will not be returning.

Very disappointed. Service was adequate, unusually nobody came to enquire if everything was ok during meal. Wasn’t asked if we wanted to see desert menu or if we wanted a coffee. Food was ok but certainly not worth the bill amount of £60 per head. Had much nicer at local restaurants to home. Unfortunately won’t be returning.

An amazing evening in the restaurant. Very good service. Food was fantastic. Nice atmosphere, gave the perfect Indian dinner experience. Enjoyed it all. Highly recommended !!

Great food,great service,never had a bad meal here in all my visits. One of the best Indian restaurants in this part of London. Highly recommended

the ambience of the restaurant is really good ... food is great though the quantity of each portion was a little bit on the lower side ... the waiter who served us was very good as well ... but the whole experience of getting into the hotel and settling down on our table which we reserved was utterly insulting ... we felt like we crashed a wedding party and the people were pissed with us ... 2 waiters in particular lacked the simple common sense of how to talk and behave let alone of been a waiter in a hotel

Great food and good service. The location is great, it doesnt feel like you are in London. This is probably our 5th visit there and looking forward to going back again soon

Food was very good and staff attentive. The views are great as well. Will be returning in the near future for sure. Rice portions can be shared!

I have lived in wapping and On Narrow street for the last 14 years and always Heard good things about Mala, I’ve always walked past and wanted to go in. We ate last night and my fussy fiancé said it’s the best Indian food he’s ever eaten. He doesn’t say that lightly. I loved prawn purée starter and so much more! The owner gave a warm brandy on the house, he was the kindest man. Thank you so much for your wonderful service and delicious food Vinny!

Lovely location service was good and food was excellent glad we finally got round to trying this restaurant would recommend pricey bit worth it would definitely go back

The location is fabulous and we had a table in the window overlooking the water. The staff were very helpful and friendly and the food was excellent. A very good evening and I will definitely go back again.

I spend a fair bit of time in London, Mala is one of my favourite restaurants, great food and an excellent location. Why not have a couple of beers at Dickins, then head next door for a Mala curry.

Great location, great food, well worth a visit. Why not grab a couple of beers at Dickins, then head next door for a curry.

Atmosphere, staff and food was all incredible. I have eaten here many times and will definitely go back. I always take out of town family, friends and other visitors who also love it.

The food was great, service was amazing and the location superb. One of the best Indian restaurants in the location. Highly recommended for its food

The food was very good, the service was a little slow at times , could do with a little more attention to detail sat with an empty glass for ten minutes and no attention. Overall would recommend because of the food😀

Lovely meal, food was amazing and the staff were fantastic - will definitely go back again. Also helped us to celebrate a birthday which was a great touch.

A very enjoyable evening spent at the Mala Restaurant. The staff were very attentive and courteous in their approach. The dishes chosen were prepared to a high standard and of ample quantity. "A hidden gem in St Katherine's Dock"

Good food, good service, great location but toilets are a bit tired and the menu is missing something compared to my favourite Indian restaurants. I'll happily go back but can't rave.

The waiter and overall service was very good. The food was excellent and some of the best we had in London. We highly recommend Mala.

Excellent food. Good location facing St Katharine Docks. Varieties of Indian cuisines where all of my guests from overseas admire its taste. Must come for those who love curry!

Poor service, waiter did not know about most of the dishes that they served. Some ordered dishes simply did not turn up at all. Management was arrogant.

Very poor service. Not listening and arrogant. We booked 1 month in advance and had to wait 45 minutes before having our table. Not a drink offered ;even water!) While we were waiting. We had to chase the waiters to be served all evening. Food was too spicy. They said “medium spice” but it is very spiced in fact. Expensive and ambiance cheap. Do not recommend.

Great Restaurant, Great Food, Great Location... Everyone enjoyed the experience and the service was friendly and despite the restaurant being busy we did not have to wait too long to be served. A queue was outside the door before the restaurant opened at 6pm which shows they have keen customers!

Excellent food. Good menu options. Poor customer service. Was expecting more friendly staff. Will not go there again. I asked for a bowl to serve daal, I was refused without a ‘sorry’. I asked for extra quarter plates to serve cake and I was refused because ‘they already gave a few earlier’.

Although the restaurant was very quiet for a Sunday, the food was really excellent. The off the leg of lamb speciality, accompanied with the mixed vegetable dish was outstanding.

Très bon restaurant je le conseillé ,de plus les doks sainte Catherine est un endroit a découvrir pour le charme du cadre ,mieux vaut réserver.

staff aloof, food average, and too expensive. Very nice decor but little in the way of atmosphere. Very quiet and many empty tables for a Friday night

Absolutely amazing evening. Raj and co really looked after us having rolled out the red carpet to make it a vip experience for my dads 60th. I can’t say enough good words about the food, drinks and service. If you haven’t been to Mala, then you haven’t been anywhere!!

It was really good experience and loved the whole ambience.

Great selection of quality food in a fantastic location. Chef's specials for lamb and chicken highly recommended. it is a little pricey for Indian food but you are in St Catherine's dock so it is expected.

amazing indian restaurant , fast service , clean , great selections of food and wines. one of my fav restaurant in London since many years ...

Surly staff whose intention is to get you seated, fed and out of the door as quickly as possible. We did ask for a delay in bringing our mains, as we were being rushed. Needless to say, when we got them they were barely warm. The food was fairly dire, and I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.
