We had the vegetarian buffet۔ this is a Gujarati/Indian eatery serving spicy foods۔ great choice of starters and mains۔ Nice atmosphere۔ Food tasty and authentic and the whole family enjoyed it۔

I visited last night with my family and we all enjoyed our meal. The food was authentic and spiced just right without the overwhelming heat from chilli. The wait staff were lovely and polite. We will definitely be back

Was not very impressed with this restaurant from top to bottom. The food is blend nothing special. The staffs are ok not very welcoming you and happy.The waiter come to your table and offer you popadom without telling you they will charge you for it until you see in the bill plus they charge you service charge in the bill when is buffet and you serve yourself anyway.So in another way they will try to charge more and extra whichever way they can if you know and tell them they will take it off which was the case with me and if you do not check your bill there and then they will get away with it and charge you which I do not think is nice.

I admire this place a lot. It has a different spirit. The kitcen is wonderful. the service is efficient and the team is trained. The cost is reasonable. I highly recommend.

Delivery took an hour and a half to turn up. More dishes than wed ordered, but food was cold, garlic naan was a rubbery totally plain naan, paneer and chickpea dishes were literally just paneer and chickpeas in a watery tasteless sauce and the Aloo Tikki was a tasteless stodgy dumpling. Only nice thing was the Methi Bhatoora bread. Really disappointed as had been recommended to us

Great dishes but curries were WAY too salty. My partner makes fun of me for using a lot of salt when I cook but... I could only eat half because of the salt overload... Ask for less salt when ordering!!

The worst restaurants I have ever been Inn my life, food was pathetic, Resto owner was a very rude and completely non customer centric approached person.Will never visit again.You can report as fake but I am giving my honest opinion.

Really lovely fresh tasting food with beautifully balanced spices and flavours. The coriander peanut chutney is so delicious. Lovely staff and very generous portions.

Its okay, being a vegetarian restaurant its high carb & fat with very low protein food, but once in a while its okay. The quantities are good and some novel (never heard of) items such as south Indian idli pieces deep fried.

Wasnt amazing, very big portions but not super flavoursome. Starter was luke warm, main hot. Staff courteous and pleasant.

Dont go there.food is rubish which i would not feed a dog.the waitress was misrable and we were the only ones there.the food took ages.its was just covered in oil .i just ate half and went to another place to eat .Das Sodha

Very fresh and tasty food. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Great food and great service.

Very nice food and will be going back again.

Excellent food. The bhel Puri is wonderfulTheir coriander chutney is peerless.

Ordered a take away - it was amazing! Absolutely delicious and arrived in time

The decor here still steeped in a paradigm of 80’s upmarket glitz.Albeit a Sunday evening, the buffet mostly wilted and jaded. The ‘main’ courses (shades of brown) virtually indistinguishable and bland, the fresh green and fruit salads amateurishly lacklustre.Service was acceptably apathetic and nominally efficient.A somewhat dated formula here reveals little in the way of inspiration, inventiveness, or for that matter, good value.Once upon a time but not again.

Food and service is very good

I am sorry to even give one star. Its not even worth giving any rating. Travelled 12 miles to enjoy vegetarian meal buy it was all wasted. I have never eaten such tasteless food ever in my whole life. I do respect food but £35 for set meal is way too much when it comes to taste.Never ever again. Its not commendable.Please people do do not waste money.

Classic Indian vegetarian food, exactly what you want. Huge selection of foods, highly recommend the Mutaar Paneer! Thanks again to Stephanie to was really helpful and have some great recommendations (Gulab Jamun is delicious!). Ill be back soon...

Definitely the best Indian restaurant in the area! The food is fresh, hot and they provide massive portions. I especially loved their Tarka Dal, mixed Bhajias with Coriander Chutney, Vegetable Samosas, Bombay Aloo, Chana, Matar Gobi, Kofta Paneer, and Kesaria Almond and Saffron Milkshake. They even set up taxi delivery if youre far away, at no additonal charge. This place is fantastic and the service is always friendly and warm.

Delicious vegetarian Indian food.

The food, as always was very good. Our concern was that the waiting staff wore no mask or visor. He seemed to be on his own, so I have no idea if the kitchen staff are wearing them either. You can request a table away from other guests but there seems to have been no accommodation for social distancing. They need to comply!

Amazing Food but service to be desired.Went here for father day meal and it is a nice place and the food is quite good however the service was not up to scratch. There was one waiter running around between 8 tables.

Really disappointed Sending wrong food and Hire trained staff

Good good, good service. It was a busy night but service wasnt affected. Theyade an error in the bill and quickly rectified it without any fuss. Would definately recommend.

Tasty and full of flavours. I am not a fan of vegetarian food, but this menu was a really lovely surprise for my the taste buds! Very busy so you need to book well in advance.

A small family run pure vegetarian restaurant serving mainly Gujarati (north west Indian) dishes. They do both a buffet and menu based. The buffet is excellent value for money.The service is great, both warm and friendly with a great ambience. Will definitely will go there again.

Great Sunday lunch buffet! Good variety of warm main dishes and starters, mostly vegan. Well seasoned, though in my taste could be more spicy. The only big minus was that the only fresh salad was icebergs lettuce with already dry and oldish cucumber slices. But in general very good food for a good price: well made and fresh.

I can remember the first and last time when we came to eat at this restaurant. Everything about this restaurant is terrible, its definitely not authentic indian cuisine, if your looking for indian food catered to a British palate then thats what you will get. Bland food which tastes awful and feels like it has been made a few days in advance and not fresh on the day. When it came to dessert we wanted ras malai only to be told by the waitress that the dessert had gone off so they couldnt serve it to us. The worst thing was the aftermath from eating here, my fiancé and I both ended up with stomach problems. I will never step foot in this restaurant again.

Needs to change menu a bit. Need to offer more variety. Other than that good covid 19 seating plan.

I ordered takeaway last night, the worst Indian food I’ve tasted in my life. Both the paneer dishes were too salty, the bajais were oily and disgusting. The potato curry had absolutely no taste and was under cooked. Seems like the chef was in holiday and some random person must have cooked the food. I will never order food from Rani again, if like me you enjoy a treat don’r be disappointed

Excellent food and service. Well priced and a great experience all round. Highly recommend!

I can’t give 5 starts only because the staff stood at the bar talking in their own language and looking over at my family and laughing. Other than that the food was brilliant and our waiter was very nice!

Outstanding!! Absolutely delicious, every single dish! Will be ordering regularly. Highly recommend

Very good

Absolutely dissapointing. Not all the dishes I ordered actually came and the dishes that did come were both bland and tasteless. Safe to say I will not be ordering from here again.

Great for starters/snacks, but not for main course e.g. some dishes like pav bhaji and veg biryani were quite off from the authentic taste. But worth a visit for snacks.

I would advise you to AVOID this restaurant. They missed out items on my order (should have been 2x raita and 2x green chilli pickle as i ordered two Thali but only got one of each. and plus i ordered the Thali option and when it arrived i saw the portion size similar to a kids meal!

Very bad experience. Just tried idly & masala dosa.Never experienced from anywhere like this

#roshirodericksphotography #visionaryfilming capturing memura ceremony! Nice restaurant Great hot food to serve your guests for prewedding event!

Had a takeaway which was prepared in double quick time, and absolutely delicious!

Awful worse chat I’ve ever had. Didn’t even had what it said on the menu in the actual item. Avoid.

Not good at all, this place is really loosing its standard. Same menu for years not anything exciting or new. Recently had a just eat delivery requested for no sugar in kadhi & daal. They totally ignored the request, should not eat here if you are diabetic as all dishes are full of sugar! They also charged me for falooda & did not recieve it! I don’t be eating here again nor ordering. Portions are expensive & not great in taste...a small pot of chutney is £2 it should be at least a decent portion!

Excellent value, super fresh. Friendly and efficient service.

Quantity is good but quality wise very poor in test.... tadkadaal very bad test Naan bread was worseFor enjoying food it’s not a good place.

Good service and great to have an all vegetarian restaurant. Really middle of the road on food though. Pani Puri was not great, Dahi wada squishy, and remainder of South Indian fare was so-so on taste.Actually returned for a second time in three weeks and was a better experience for more typical North Indian food. Fried idli, chilli garlic naan were the best of the items we ordered

Never been before so we thought we would try the Groupon offer. Unlimited buffet for £xThe restaurant is easy to find and good location. Nicely done up and huge capacity. Looked clean and good staff.The starters were nice and a good variety but the containers seemed more empty then full, so regular top ups of the starters would have been good. The mains were an issue as not hot enough.we had to ask the waiter to bring hot food but even then it wasnt that hot. The taste was nice but wish people would close containers after taking their food and with this cold weather maybe need extra burners.

Nice enough food, takes long time to serve, not value for money.

I always struggle with places that have a buffet and a menu as you never know which is going to be the better option. Went for the buffet here and was not disappointed, not the largest selection but most of not all of it was good. Reasonably priced considering whats included. The buffet also included some light dessert options which were unexpectedly delicious.

Really high quality Indian vegetarian food. All vegetarian and lots of began options. All you can eat buffet on a Sunday.

Worst dining experience- We went on a Thurs night to have the buffet around 8pm the staff were miserable and didnt even bother to tell us that they would not be replenishing the buffet (they close at 10pm) hence limited choice nothing like the images on their website!! The food was not fresh it was dried up having been out most of the evening, only scrappy bits left of everything, you had to keep signalling unprofessional staff for attention. We had the worst dining experience keep away, your moneys better spent elsewhere. Done 1 star rating only because I have to, otherwise it would be a No star rating for this horrible place!!!!

Delicious food and nice passion fruit juice. Nice and friendly staff. Great atmosphere. Ive been visiting this restaurant for at least 5 years and it one of my favourites. Keep it up.

Good selection of food and loved the chutney and salad bar in the buffet. Service not so great, nobody asked to see if we needed more drinks, we had to go to ask for more water this never came. As part of the buffet dosas are included upon request, which we requested...They never came as they hadnt been put through. The restaurant wasnt at full capacity so quite disappointing.

If you’re vegetarian and like spice this is the best restaurant for miles around Even if you’re a non vegetarian and just fancy a change their food is beautiful. Nice buffet of an evening private functions available also

The food is good and tasted like home made. The buffet options are nice as well, good choice of starters, mains and desserts. The ambiance is very welcoming and pleasent. Definitely visiting again.

Not a bad place by all means. Very tasty Indian food, spices different from your average Indian so each dish was different which is unusual. Only 4 stars rather than 5, as I do like more smiles to come with the service and the place is a little old fashioned now. However, if you just want a good quality Indian meal, that’s not dripping with the usual oil, and don’t mind the food to be all veggie, it’s a very good local choice. Just a tip, get a paneer cheese dish (and ask them to not be so mean with the cheese bits and add some extra) so you feel you get something substantial in your meal and not just veggies alone, especially if you are used to having some meat chunks within your curry.

Always have the buffet. Very good selection. A lot of the dishes are vegan friendly. Tasty and delicious. Very hospitable staff. Wheelchair access available.

Rani gave us very good service and excellent food for a family gathering. As requested by us we were served masala tea when we arrived. All our food was served hot too.

The food is fresh and the staff are really attentive to removing used plates.. Lovely food!

Myself and family have been going to Rani restaurant for a number of years. Easily the best vegetarian restaurant in London. I have many elderly relatives as well as many young children and everyone is catered for. The management are very friendly and increase/decrease spice as needed - very accommodating. I would highly recommended to anyone!

Brilliant place to eat. Best buffet in London. Try the banana curry. Starters, main and dessert. Have as much as you want. Lovely place almost unchanged since it opened many years ago. I mean that positively.

OK food. Taste was so so. Wouldnt be going back there again. For what we spent way better places to eat. Watch out for parking near the area. Not all roads and spots are free.

Tastiest homemade authentic buffet food- guilt free as vegetarian perfect for the wife and grandkids

Great food, friendly service. You must try!

Really good food. Lively ambience. Beautifully decorated. Good selection of alcohol and plenty to select from of the menu. Whats even better is there always buffet available. Great place to eat, staff are extremely polite and friendly. Will definitely revisit

Excellent food and attentive staff when you grabbed their attention.The staff were not pro active in getting back to you.Wonderful food though

Great service, lovely variety and at a great price! The only reason its not getting a 5 star rating is the south Indian options (Masala Dosa etc) were not authentic. My suggestion- stick to the awesome Gujju options :)

Excellent buffet.. Went to Rani for the first time today with my family and we all loved it. Definite 5* and we will definitely be back. Makhani paneer was the best I have ever tried.

Very nice food. Variety of starters and accompaniments. Only thing they can add is giving roti also instead of only puri

Excellent vegetarian restaurant. The place is amazing and they really have strong feelings against the meat lovers. The menu is even separated in sections and has the appropriate symbols if the meal contains dairy, nuts or anything some Straight edge person wouldnt eat. Thats respectable. I recommend the place.

We came here for a family meal for the first time and I must say what a massive disappointment! The restaurant was less than half capacity with 2 waiters who had no time to take orders. Service was a massive let down. We asked to make the food mild as there were children eating, however it seemed the kitchen did not get the memo and the food was extremely spicy enough to make it inedible! Portion sizes are tiny for the cost and food came out either extremely hot or cold making us believe that this food wasnt freshly made as suggested. When issues were brought up with management their attitude was well no one else has complained and we were made to look like liars/complainers. This restaurant was a complete let down and we will definitely not be coming back let alone recommending.

Long established Vegetarian restaurant that strangely doesnt cater well at all for vegans. None of the dessert options were available for vegans aside from plain fruit. Seemed to have never heard of the availability of alternative milks when my daughter wanted a milkshake or ice cream that were not dairy based. Good curries but due to their dairy dependence was unable to enjoy a range of options.

Inattentive service, cold naan served, partially cooked/lukewarm main courses. Sorry but wouldnt recommend.

The food wasn’t great at all, every think taste this same- everywhere was to much cumin. The worst thing was that they want me charge 40% for service- Disgusting place

Good. Big discount if book through groupon..

Consistently good food. Weve been going for years and whether its from the buffet or a la carte its delicious. Everything is described saying whether it has dairy or gluten content. Recommended.

A lovely vegetarian restaurant with an amazing buffet menu as well as a standard menu with loads of choice. The decor in the restaurant has been upgraded and the seating is more comfortable. The staff are very knowledgible with regards to the menu items, and the buffet choice is good and reasonably priced

This place came highly recommended from family and friends. Staff were mostly friendly but could have smiled a bit more. Food portions from main menu were smaller than expected for the price. We saw most people went for the buffet. Ordered parathas which were thick and dry. Roti was thick. Not what we expected. Dahi vada were very nice, but all other food seemed average.

Very nice food. Thoroughly enjoyed it

My local. Very comfortable place with friendly staff. The prices are more than good and the portions are big. The food is well cooked and tasty. I eat here very often.

No taste or flavour in any food

Average restaurant, average food, good ambience. Service charge added extra, this can be removed.

I have been going to Rani for the last 28 years and have always enjoyed my meal under the last management.last night I had the worst meal I have ever had anywhere.I have always enjoy the buffet in the past so I decided to go for it again.The starters were cold and soggy and tasteless.(the last 4 visits the same!!!)when I asked for fresh, starters they where just preheated, it tasted that way yakkk..I ordered a bottle of Cobra and they brought me a flat glass full of a pumped cat pi.. instead of a the bottle I sent it back!!When I returned for the main curries, the choice was very poor made from cheap ingredients,The main courses were tasteless, mushy, and nearly inedible.The fruit offered in the end for dessert had clearly been there for days and made of cheapest fruits .The service was terrible with the waiters clearly uninterested. Worst of all the food was reheated several times and tasted awful.A total rip-off and disappointment.What a shame that restaurant was one of my favourite.I will never go there again and advise the same to others.

Very polite staff wonderful environment......food was tasty and well organised.... just have one suggestion pls putt at least one Indian desert in buffet shrikhand is not for everyone even kids don’t like because its savour...... over all best restaurant.. i wish next time desert can be replace with gulab jaman/rassmalai or either with halwa....😊

Food was rather average, we had the buffet lunch and it wasnt great. Service is ok, the layout for the buffet is almost like a triangular U shape which is poorly designed. Could be more efficient with straight lines.

Sunday Gujerati vegetarian buffet lunch from a brilliant Groupon deal.A decent variety of some really tasty starters with fewer selection of mains (veg kofte in paneer was amazing!), and ending with a traditional sweetened yogurt (not a fan of this Shrikand version) and fresh fruit salad. The pickles, chutneys and raitas gave a welcome balance to the meal, which leaned more on the lighter side of spicy.Restaurant was not too busy; bad weather likely putting off walk-ins. Beautifully appointed, clean and neat surroundings, with polite and friendly staff.All in all, an amiable and chilled afternoon, is the verdict from our large group of 3 generations. Thank you, Ranis.

Such a good restaurant! Would definitely recommend this to others. Amazing friendly staff.

It is really rare to find an Indian restaurant that specializes in vegetarian and vegan dishes and let me tell you it is well worth the visit!The buffet is always a great option if you want to try a bit of everything and its well priced for the quality of food and service.Regardless of ordering a take away or have sat in for food i have never been disappointed with the food and service at Ranis.

Out of this world. Had the buffet. Great food, great service, not rushed...Perfect

Delicious Indian food with a variety of vegetarian dishes on offer. Sensible prices. Highly recommended.

Disappointment! Not up to the mark!Tried their Chilli Panner..and must say it was not freshly made and the gravy was very sour in taste and their Tarka Daal had no Tarka(Chilli and Garlic Tadka) at all. The waiter did not know the difference between Dal and Tarka Daal.Went out for lunch on a Friday afternoon and was told that they do not accept Taste card on Fridays. But when checked on Tastacard website, it clearly states that they accept Taste card on Fridays..but it was too late.

The BEST vegetarian restaurant in North London - if you visit you wont be disappointed.

Great lassi, good size portions

Great food and thats consistent since it opened around 25(?) Years ago. Try the banana curry. Very clean and relaxing. Brilliant value for money.

Best vegetarian Indian restaurant in London in my opinion!!!! Fantastic range of food, unbelievably tasty, good price, lovely staff and if you order a delivery its on your table in 15 mins in most cases!!!

Awesome food and ambience with very friendly staff

Londons top most vegetarian restaurant is RANI restaurant.Excellent food. Buffet superb.Specially bhatura.Its the most memorable experience which RANI gives.Rani means Queen, and London is always Queens home.

Okay. Ambiance somewhat sterile. Food pretty good

Went for the first time last week. The staff were very welcoming, and the menu choice is good, not too much and not too little. Food was great. Had no complaints at all.
