What a wonderful restaurant. The food was fantastic and a great menu. The staff were very polite and helpful. I went with a group of friends and everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Would definitely recommend it and will definitely be back.

Easily one of the best Indian restaurants south of the river.
Food and drinks superb. Service neat. London has loads of Indian food places, but very very few serve food of this quality.
Perfect for a date or a break from regular humdrum. It is a gem of a restaurant.

This place is top quality. Had a lovely evening here with my wife and probably one of the best Indian meals ever! This isn't just one of your bog standard Indian restaurants you find the suburbs. It's high class cuisine at reasonable prices and there's a good mixture of very original dishes and some that are a delicious version of more familiar ones. For example, there's Butter Chicken, which is the original version of Chicken Tikka Masala but so delicious, the memory stayed with me long afterwards. They even serve goat, buffalo, rabbit and venison; which is amazing considering most Indian restaurants just serve the usual chicken, lamb and prawns. There's even a good choice for vegetarians. Portions are very generous, service is friendly and attentive, choice of drinks is very good and atmosphere is great. Perfect place for a wedding reception. There's even some good offers on food and drinks. Most restaurants are doing offers on food but hardly any on drinks, so it was refreshing to see things like 3 for 2 offers on bottles of lager. All in all I think this place is going to be one of my regular haunts and I wish the owners every success.

What an amazing place! When I discovered this restaurant I was so pleased as it reminded me of the kind of establishment you'd find in trendy East Dulwich. I've been coming regularly and I must say the food is sublime. The best ever was yesterday when I booked a table for the Indian style roast and live jazz. I must say, I had the most splendid afternoon and brought some friends with me who also loved it. The chef really excelled himself this time - the lamb was juicy, tender and delicious and the Indian style roast potatoes and vegetables were an inspiration. To top it all, the jazz band was perfect. I love jazz anyway but this was a group of excellent musicians and the music complemented the food beautifully both for style and quality. All in all, Cinnamon Culture made sure we had the perfect Sunday afternoon and I truly thank them for taking a punt on Bromley. This place really deserves to go from strength to strength and I'm certainly going to keep coming and bringing my friends along.

I must tell everyone the experience I had today at the Cinnamon Culture. I was quite surprised when I with my wife for a Sunday buffet. They had Indian style Sunday roast and an amazing live jazz band. The jazz trio were fantastic. Saxophone player was amazing and he even went close to the tables while playing. Heavenly !!
When I enquired I was told they started it last month and do it one Sunday of the month.
Highly recommended.

Loved it.

This restaurant is a jewel in the sleepy backwater of Sundridge Park and I commend the owners for taking a chance and opening such a stylish place in an area like this. I’ve been here many times and have always been impressed. The food is wonderful and I’d just like to say, I and quite a few people I know have visited more than once and have never reported feeling bad; so I would ignore that comment about the bad stomach. It’s hard enough for great restaurants like this to survive in this climate without the need to have nasty, unsubstantiated comments put on the internet. Unless people are sure it’s the food, they should keep it to themselves. How does that reviewer know they didn’t have a tummy bug at the time; totally irresponsible comment in my view and it should be removed. Anyway, we recently had a beautiful meal one evening and had the vegetable samosa, butter chicken (exquisite), the lamb biryani and dal. Really delicious and better even we agreed than Veeraswamy or the Mala at St Katherine’s Dock. The gulab jamun desert was original and absolutely delicious. Ambience is excellent and very cool, service is attentive and friendly and the décor is amazing. This is easily one of our favourite ever restaurants and my wife is Indian and we’re both very fussy and used to eating at very good places, from the Dorchester to the Witchery in Edinburgh, so this is not an easy accolade to give. I would recommend anyone who likes top quality Indian food and wants something different from the run-of-the-mill suburban fare. They even have live Jazz on at some Sunday lunchtimes!

What a brilliant menu. I loved the Lamb Biryani and good variety of scotch.
Must visit this restaurant, it is next to Sundridge Park Station.

Great Indian restaurant or shall I say Indian gastro pub. Good for a pint or two with the bar food platters. I like the garden, staff is polite. They could do with some more offers on drinks.
Will be back to have dinner.
Must visit!!

I had very good time yesterday with my friends and family. I must say they are a bit expensive but worth every penny.
Menu is very creative menu and I loved the Chef's special Seafood menu.

Positives: Modern decor, friendly staff and unusual decorative dishes compared to what you would normally see in an Indian restaurant.

Negatives: Food is average in flavour and it is Pretty expensive for what you get. I had a fish dish for my main course (the starter was much better) and 4 days later I still have a bad stomach!! Do not touch the fish in this place or just do not bother to go there at all! I have never felt so bad and I eat Indian food every week :(.

I booked a table for my husband's birthday and mentioned about the special day to get a nice table. We had an amazing time at the Cinnamon, I loved their Blueberry Mojito. At the end of a romantic dinner my husband got a surprise birthday cake from the chef.

Thank you Cinnamon Culture team.

Charlotte.

Very different menu for Indian restaurant, serving Ostrich & Rabbit. My kids had freshly made chicken nuggets (Indian style) keeping them happy. They loved it, we will be back.

Great food and great service! However having paid our bill (nearly £200 for 4) we were 'offered' a drink by the owner only to be surprised and disappointed to be presented with another bill! Would have said we'd be back next week, now not sure we'll be back at all.

Must have been a misunderstanding. 'Can I offer you a drink' is a standard line in a restaurant after all. Why you haven't brought it to the manager's attention? I'm sure he would sort it out to your liking... I took my family twice by now and the staff is always friendly and open to any kind of suggestions. Have a courage to bring your point up straight away, rather than posting it on world wide web. It doesn't solve anything...
Good luck in the future!
