Beautifully presented and delicious tasting food. Good portion sizes for fine dining as well. We went for 3 courses and a bottle of wine for 65 a head. Service was brilliant. Would recommend the Chennai fish curry, the monkfish starter and the trio of sorbets.

The whole dining experience was superb. From the communication regarding our dietary requirements to the wonderful food and exceptional service. The food was beautifully presented with a detailed description of each course from the tasting menu. We had the vegan, vegetarian, seafood special and the meat choices which can’t have made things easy for the chefs. The food was plentiful and delicious. Thank you for a lovely evening, hope to return when we are next in Cambridge.

One of the best meals we’ve ever had! We chose the 7 course tasting menu. Every course was beautifully presented and explained. Just when you thought one course couldn’t be beaten, the next was even better. We have dined here before in the private dining room with family which was brilliant but the 7 course taster for our anniversary was exceptional. The staff were attentive but not intrusive. What a wonderful evening, worth every penny

The most amazing food and great service. We had the regular and vegetarian 7 course tasting menus for 4 people and the food was stunning and absolutely delicious. Every course was explained and friendly attentive service.

If you love paneer as much as I do (which is borderline obsession), then Navadhanya is the place to be! From start to finish, this meal was a journey of pure delight. The Lal Mirch Ka Paneer was so soft, I’m convinced it had been given a five-star spa treatment before landing on my plate. The combination with figs? Genius! Sweet, spicy, and utterly delicious. Then came the Kadai Paneer, which was beautifully rich and packed with flavour, bold but not trying to blow your head off with spice. And best of all, it wasn’t swimming in grease like so many other restaurants! And then came dessert. Oh. My. Kulfi. The Valhalla chocolate and pistachio khulfi was next-level delicious. The kulfi had the smoothness of an Italian gelato, while the Valhalla chocolate was indulgent without being overpowering. Together, they created a dessert so good it should come with a warning label: "May cause spontaneous happy dancing at the table." Every bite was a reminder that life is better with good food, and Navadhanya knows how to deliver it in style. Service? Fantastic. Atmosphere? Perfect. Would I come back? You’d have to physically stop me!

Honestly an amazing experience; customer service was impressive, food was splendid, and even the beverages were top rate. The saffron rice was worth multiple trips to this establishment alone. Obviously there are many incredible and interesting dishes with each we tried genuinely making us happy. Looks like it has been on the Michelin Guide a few times and deservedly so in my opinion. Highly recommended!
