Banquet night - such good value and nice food in a small but pleasant restaurant.

Great food. Good price . Good service . Clean . Good atmosphere. Gem

Good quality food and excellent service. Good options on the menu and both traditional and innovative dishes on offer.

Always great food here, reasonably priced for Wanstead. Tandoor oven enhances menu options. Friendly staff, always a delight eating here!

Starters were excellent. Attentive waitstaff. Fresh ingredients. Not too noisy.

Very good curries, big portions and great service. We had a wide range of food (chicken, lamb, prawns and salmon) and it was all very tasty

Waiters attentive and good value for money. Cosy and warm in the restaurant too.

This was our second visit this year. We used to go regularly but stopped because the quality of the food and service became really poor, which was a huge disappointment. However, our neighbours told us that it had changed management and gone back to how it used to be. We went in January to try it out and we were really pleased. The food and service were superb. A lovely menu and quite reasonably priced. We returned again last weekend and our experience was every bit as good as our January visit. Excellent food and service. It's great to have this restaurant back at the standard that it used to be. We will definitely return.

Excellent food and a great evening. Thanks you very much.

very tasty, really enjoyed our meal. Thank you vey much

The Lane is our local curry house and must certainly be one of the best in east London . A friendly welcome, great service and great food. Highly recommended

A really lovely Indian meal. The food is authentic and fresh. The staff are so helpful and kind. Lovely night.

Lovely atmosphere, attentive staff & good food. Really lucky to have this restaurant on our doorstep - wished we’d have discovered it sooner & will definitely return.

For a restaurant that is supposedly the uk’s best, it was a little underwhelming. I had a north indian garlic chicken dish which was quite bland, no noticeable garlic, spice level was low, the tomato based sauce wasn’t cooked down sufficiently so was watery. The shami kebab starter was a weird meat slab covered in soggy pastry, like a large keema naan. Okra was under cooked, trying to avoid being overcooked it was crunchy but didn’t have much flavour. Naan was good, lemon rice lacking flavour, aubergine tasted good but was oily. Very good riocca wine, good service, good decor, nice people. Just I expected better food really. Must have been a lot of salt used as I woke in the night gasping for water. I hardly use any in my indian cookery.

Wonderful and unique cuisine here. A memorable dining experience. Recommended.

Underwhelming unfortunately. At best average and was £30 a head.mwont be returning in a hurry.

Excellent service and very good food. As a really nice atmosphere.

The food was very nice and great value for money

Wonderful, tasty, busy, lots of atmosphere and fantastic service by the staff

Fabulous meal at The Lane last night. Portions generous, full of flavour, great service and lovely atmosphere

We tried the Tuesday night 5 course menu. Great value for money and good menu options. Tasty food and friendly staff who were happy to help with the menu as we wanted to try new things!
