    The food was good, as always and the service throughout the meal was good. However at the end of the meal we were just chatting and a different member of staff who hadn’t served us before came over and slammed the bill down and immediately came over with a card machine. After we had paid the bill and were just finishing up she came over to tell us they were closed (there were still people downstairs) and that we needed to leave. I felt that she was unnecessarily rude and it really spoilt what had been a nice evening.

    The food is always fantastic. The service was good. They were very busy with a few large groups but the team seemed to manage well. We are sad you couldn’t book the dining room from the app. Only the kitchen. Hopefully that will change in the future. Overall I recommend Roti Chai.

    If you’re looking for a modern take on Indian food this place is absolutely amazing. The food was incredible, definitely up there as one of the best Indian cuisine I’ve ever had! I could have easily ordered everything from the menu it was all delicious. The portions are on the smaller side but that was perfect for our group of 4, we got a sample of many dishes including the lamb and paneer dishes which were simply outstanding. I can’t recommend this place enough I will tell everyone I know and will 100% be back as often as I can.

FAQs

Yes, the team is responsive to bookings and special requests. Guests note the restaurant is very responsive to emails and reservation changes and accommodating with dietary needs. For Dining Room or group requests, contact the restaurant directly; for Street Kitchen book via OpenTable and add notes or call ahead for specific requests.

If you want the full night-out energy, weekends are great; for a quieter meal choose a weekday lunch or early weekday evening. Note the Dining Room is open Tue–Sat evenings, so midweek dinners (Tue–Thu) can be a good balance of atmosphere and availability.

Portions at Roti Chai tend to be on the smaller side and street-food or small-plate style, which many guests like for sharing and sampling lots of dishes. Several guests describe them as small but perfect for groups; a few found some dishes light on protein. If you want to be sure you’ll be full, order a few starters and mains to share or add a side of rice or bread.

Roti Chai offers a warm, modern take on Indian street food with a lively yet cosy atmosphere. Guests describe it as fun, casual-elegant and great for groups or dates, with attentive service and a strong West End vibe near Selfridges. The Dining Room provides a slightly more refined, intimate feel for evening meals.

Busiest: evenings and weekend nights, guests frequently mention a lively, busy atmosphere and larger groups. Quietest: weekday lunchtimes or early weekday evenings are generally calmer. If you prefer a quieter visit, aim for midweek or an earlier sitting and book ahead.

Family-friendly: yes, guests frequently mention families, birthday celebrations and groups dining comfortably. The menu’s small plates make sharing easy for families. Accessibility details aren’t provided in the available information, so call the restaurant ahead to confirm specific accessibility needs or seating arrangements.

Smart casual is the recommended dress code. Guests typically dress comfortably for a stylish but relaxed West End dining experience.

Families do dine here and guests often celebrate birthdays with children, so it’s family-friendly in practice. The small-plate, shareable menu suits groups and teens well. There’s no specific kids’ menu mentioned, so for younger children consider an early seating or call ahead to discuss menu flexibility.

Yes, Roti Chai is a great choice for date night. Guests praise the modern, fun atmosphere, attentive service and delicious contemporary Indian dishes, and the lower-ground Dining Room offers a more formal, intimate option for evening dining. Consider booking the Dining Room for a quieter, special-occasion vibe or the Street Kitchen for a lively, casual night out.
