Metropol Inn

Situated in an outer London suburb among a plethora of eateries and supermarkets, Madhu’s stands out like a beacon with its terrific Indian cooking. Inside, it’s got a simple yet slightly glitzy feel with its mirrored walls, while the tried-and-tested dishes from Punjab and beyond deliver all the big, satisfying flavours you’d expect. Starters such as tandoori salmon with mint are well-executed, while the rogan gosht is a superior curry with rich, deep flavours. The well-versed team provide chatty, genial service.
