Nice restaurant. Good food. Could have been hotter when arrived on table. Service was very attentive overall good experience. However authentic Punjabi cooking. Only complaint was we couldn't finish our meal and asked for it to be packed to take away. They put the daal and chicken dish in the same pot which if I was vegetarian or with someone vegetarian would have been appalling. It was late when we left however no excuses. Doubt if I would go back as the food does not beat my favourite and the end of the night as below left me with a bit of a niggle

Was a lovely lunch. Although booked for 12:30 We arrived 25 minutes early which was not a problem. A good dining experience. My only small critism was the small selection on the menu for lunch but it was all very tasty, pleasing to the eye as well as the palate and served in nice surroundings. Will go back sometime on the future buy no rush

Excellent food and service with the best location in London. Try the maharajah platter and the Dall makani full of mouth watering flavours will definitely be back.

Nice restaurant, quite noisy on our visit. Food was OK although some of the portions were huge, our starters were the size of a main course which puts you off the rest of the huge plates. Reasonable quality.

Waiter forgot our drinks for 30 minutes and we had to wait an hour for our main course as we were given the wrong dishes. The restaurant decor is lovely and we were given free drinks as a compensation for their slow service. The food was nice but the chicken korma my partner had was bland and boring. If service is like this constantly then I would not recommend.

i was there already once over 1 year ago but unfortunately the service as well as the food quality changed. It started with receiving the wrong order, then the waiter coming by taking the plate and literally swopping with our neighbours plate - where it was our food - however both sides started with the food as optically it seemed correct. then also the main dishes were blend - not much taste and one dish was not even close to what it should have been ( which the waiter confirmed us). Also the service was not incredibly great or nice - the restaurant wasn't even close to being fully booked, so there were definitely enough staff ... Unfortunately beside the location, I can't recommend going there.

Great food, wonderful service and good value - can't fault it. It's in a special setting with nice views from the windows. The food was definitely a cut above other Indian Restaurants I have been to.

Coming from east London and eating in the various Indian restaurants around my home, I was expecting a similar experience here. However, it was much better all round. The restaurant itself is quite large compared to what I'm used too and very pleasantly furnished. No background music at the time, but funnily enough, did not realise this until we had nearly finished eating!!! The staff were very pleasant and on hand but not intrusive, the food was very good, large portions but much more refined than we're used to, Indian fine dining is how I would describe it and then there is the view over St Katherine's dock!! Very good experience and will definitely be visiting again.

The Mala never fails to please, when it comes to quality of service and food. Their meat quality and flavours are always second to none and not forgetting the amazing location (St Katherines Dock) - Great not seeing traffic outside . I booked for a group of 10 - Looking forward to my next visit

Very disappointed with the service. Our starter [poppadums] arrived without onion relish. We were charged £5 as it wasn't included within the dips. We then waited 1 hour for our mains due to a mixed up in the kitchen ! We asked on several occasions why our food was late with no response. Finally I spoke to the manger who told us about the mix up. Compensation was our bottle of wine and poppadums were removed from the bill. We won't be rushing back.

The food was tasty, and the presentation was good. The service, whilst friendly and polite, could have been a little more refined - it didn't quite match how well dressed the waiters were (which I thought was excellent). The atmosphere/ambiance was a let down, the music didn't match the surroundings, the lighting was a little too bright, and the sound of the phone ringing (a very unpleasant ringtone) every 10 minutes was awful.
