Located close to Strand, giving Strand Tandoori its name, halfway towards Maiden Lane along Bedford Street, Strand Tandoori has been serving central London fine Indian and Bangladeshi cuisine for over thirty years.

Weekdays see Strand opening for two sittings, lunch and dinner, while long noon to midnight hours over the weekend see this Indian restaurant in the heart of Westminster regularly packed. Book a table to avoid disappointment.

Order a dal or mulligatawny soup with some tandoori bread to begin your feast at Strand Tandoori. From the beginning, the menu at this Bangladeshi and Indian restaurant in London’s St James’s is studded with delicacies relying heavily on the tandoor – marinated tandoori chicken on the bone or the lamb chops left to mature in yoghurt, garlic, ginger, lemon leaves before being grilled to perfection. Naturally, a specialist Indian restaurant of this sort has a special selection of tandoori dishes. The tandoor oven here is a custom-built job imported from India, manned by trained chefs who know just how to keep the charcoal heat at the right level for the delicate flavour that fans of Indian cuisine know and love.
Somewhat a rarity in this part of London’s Westminster, Strand Tandoori has more than your usual selection of clay-oven delicacies to choose from. All the tikka you could wish for, but also dishes like the tandoori duck shashlik and the roop chanda, a tandoori seafood dish marinated in yoghurt and lemon, ginger, garlic, coriander and a masala spices before being finished in the oven. Balti and biryani dishes abound, but we can also recommend the set meals for two or four people as a good way to crack into this St James’s Indian restaurants offering, or head straight for the chef’s recommendations for some truly refined Indian and Bangladeshi cuisine.
