The short, well-balanced menu delivers excellent dishes like the Dhaba chicken curry and great vegan options. A clean, organised, and beautifully decorated restaurant with a lovely, relaxed vibe.

21 Cowley Rd, Oxford OX4 1HP
Highly recommended for their amazing soups, rice dishes, and mapo tofu. A popular, busy restaurant that maintains a welcoming and thoughtful environment even when packed. The customer service is remarkably friendly, efficient, and exceptionally thoughtful.
8 Ship St, Oxford OX1 3DA
Offers really good light meals, breakfast, and coffee, though it's more of a scenic stop than a serious food destination. A cozy, pretty cafe with a unique, calm atmosphere right in the old part of the city. Staff are generally super friendly, but ordering with dietary requirements can sometimes feel stressful and inflexible. Allergy accommodations can occasionally be handled bluntly or inflexibly.
2 King Edward St, Oxford OX1 4HS
Features a great variety of dishes like bibimbap and seafood jeon, though some diners have experienced poorly prepared rice. An open, clean environment offering a bustling Korean dining experience. Service is often quick, warm, and helpful, but there are instances of rude management when issues arise. Inconsistent food quality and occasional dismissive responses from management to complaints.
35 George St, Oxford OX1 2AY
Still delivers superb dishes like crispy duck and cereal king prawn, but long-time fans miss several beloved menu items that have been removed. A respected local restaurant known for reliable Chinese dining. Provides a standard, efficient service suited for a premium Chinese meal. Recent menu changes have removed several favorite dishes, disappointing long-time patrons.
82 Walton St, Oxford OX2 6EA
Highly praised for its fragrant and spicy specialty dishes like boiled fish, though portion sizes can feel small. A dedicated hotpot restaurant offering a good atmosphere for those craving specialized Chinese dishes. Service is polarizing, ranging from excellent for regulars to highly neglectful for casual walk-ins. Customers frequently report long waits for food and feeling ignored by staff in a half-empty restaurant.
