Lasan

Indian food a la carte style. Amazing food that doesn't fill you up leaving you bloated. Great vegetarian option and lovely selection of wines.

One thing Indian restarants fail on are the selection of desserts which are usually pre-frozen items. Lansan amazed us with a wide range of hand made Indian and English desserts. Top marks!

I visited Lasan Restaurant with a group of 6 others. The award of a michelin star is the reason I went to the restaurant but the decor was a huge let down and the flooring was poor.

We waited 30 mins for our food, probably because we asked for the starter to be delivered with the main course but that should have made it faster not longer. As we only went to taste the wuality, we ordered the mixed starter to share between us - which i have to say was incredibly tiny in quantity and lacking in taste.

Even so, we believed perhaps thw two main courses may be ok, however the king prawn dish lay in a bed of brown water and the lamb rogan josh was served in a cereal bowl - is that what michelin quality is meant to be? The rogan josh was merely a basic meat curry, it was not a traditional rosh josh and tasted amateur.

Overall the night was a disaster, i was totally embarassed in front of my guests and the meal of one starter, two main courses, two nans, two rice and 6x coke came to £65.00!!!

What we ordered was less that was a meal for two persons consists of, yet the price was phenonmenal. Overall, a VERY BAD EXPERIENCE.

Dining at Lasan is always a pleasure. The food is excellent, with a great choice for both vegetarians and meat-eaters. The atmosphere is great - smart surroundings and a real buzz, even midweek. Service has always been impeccable - efficient, polite and friendly. Yes, it isn't the cheapest restaurant around, but why should it be? It's worth paying a bit more for quality. They also have frequent special offers if you sign up for their email newsletter.

We have eaten in Lasan a few times over the last few years and have always found the food to be very good and had friendly service. It certainly is a bit more expensive than the average but I feel the food is a little better presented and more variety and thought put into the menu and the atmosphere more special.

They sometimes do good special offers, so sign up to their newsletter to get these which make the cost more reasonable, I think we only go when we get an offer that suits.

What a disappointment!

On our last visit to the LASAN (we're from Reading) we had nothing but high praise for this establishment.

This time, the starters were still brilliant but the main courses were a huge let-down.

Soggy, textureless king prawns in one main dish (sent back and another dish chosen) and bone splinters in the other poor quality lamb chop main dish.

Added to this, the cost of a large G&T weighed-in at £9.

The serving staff, in general, were fine but one was in dire need of a shave.

A 10% reduction in the bill was negotiated, but still, an unpleasant experience.

Absolutely loved this restaurant.

Minimalist decor made it seem a bit

stark, but as more people arrived it really got a great buzz.

The service was courteous and the food was fabulous. Beautifully presented and wonderful flavours. The wine was rather expensive but we went for the cheapest white and it wonderfuly chilled and very acceptable.
