About

Mother India serves Indian dishes in tapas-sized portions, so sharing lets you try several curries, starters and sides; reviewers particularly recommend the aubergine and potato curry and okra with potatoes. It’s a casual, reasonably priced restaurant with takeaway, and recent vegan diners report clearly marked dishes and helpful staff, though it’s worth checking whether breads are made with ghee.
