About

Khai Khai pairs Indian dishes with a focus on smoky flavours in renovated Victorian dining rooms, and reviewers repeatedly single out the tandoori broccoli, onion bhajis and yellow lentils. A dedicated plant-based menu and attentive staff make it workable for mixed groups, though one recent diner reported being served dairy after asking for a vegan dish; reserve ahead for busy evenings.
