Diwana Bhel Poori House (Euston)

• This restaurant is located behind Euston station
• In a street where many others indian restaurants are one next to each other
• The place isn't particularly good looking but it was full on a weekday
• I think the one I really liked was the paneer and sag dosa
• Drummond Street is probably best known for it's kebabs
• It's fair to say that the veggies are well represented there too
• That not alone (there are identikit places on the same street
• Although sounds like a good deal is quite pricey when compared to the equivalents in other places (like good ol' Green Street)
• The variety was pretty good right down to the gulab jamun and fruit I had for dessert
• Overall the meal we had was worth the tenner
• My only complaint would be with the facilities there the place was quite cramped
• Overall it was a nice enough place to eat on a random Saturday outing
• In a street brimming with smells and flavors of India
• Where lunch buffets are in abundance Diwana holds promise
• Like most of the establishments in this street Diwana is rather cramped
• A 7 8 pound buffet with good food makes the place seem a tad more cramped with people here
• Surprisingly most of the food was pretty decent and not very far from what the dish is actually supposed to taste like
• The food could be a little hotter (temperature and taste) and without so much oil but overall is pretty satisfactory
• Coworkers or any random group for this is a place to binge when you are low on cash
• The south Indian vegetarian food here is excellent if you order carefully
• The samosas here are generous in size
• Bursting with mixed vegetable filling and served with a spicy tomato sauce
• The de luxe dosa (basically a large crisp pancake stuffed with a spicy potato and onion filling) is also excellent
• Though the main course curries are rather ordinary
• Here quite thick in texture with a hint of saffron
• The only reason I do not score this higher is that if you stray from the snacks on to their main course curries you will be disappointed
• If you stick to the sort of dishes I describe then you will have a meal that is easily 12/20 level (and higher in places)
• It will taste just as bad as it is cheap) but pick something you want to drink
• What stands out is its South Indian selection
• The place is very constricted and the seating area is way too narrow to be comfortable
• I was more than happy with my South Indian plate
• Not too happy with the ambiance or the North Indian platter my friend had called for too oily for both of us
• The restaurant provides customers with cheap and well cooked vegetarian food
• My favourite dish is the deluxe dozer for £
• I must confess that I don't have any biases and to me good food is good food irrespective of the region it comes from
• The spread was good but every dish had a strange tangy taste which I didn't quite like
• The service left much to be desired and their pace at refilling was quite poor
• None of the food they served was hot or even warm which doesn't quite gel well with the Indian belief of serving hot food to its guests
• It must be pointed that the tables in the restaurant are quite adjacent to each other
• I must admit the restaurant is extremely pocket friendly and at their prices I am not sure how much more could they have done
• I have been a regular at this restaurant and it is just keeps getting better with every visit
• The service is impeccable and the staff is friendly and extremely hospitable
• The attention they pay to their food is clear with how i found a gravel in my buffet dish
• The staff refused to accommodate this in billing and were rather arguing
• This status of an 'Indian' restaurant making Dal or Thali absolutely awful is disappointing
• Diwana Bhel Poori House (Euston) has amazing food which are nothing short of being incredible
• The menu is quite inviting too with various options ranging form dosas to other snacks as well
• My favorite is their Bhelpoori which is just beyond amazing
• The service is a tad bit grumpy and i prefer to pay the service charge as a tip for the staff
• Ten minutes into the lunch buffet and they had started to clear the dishes on the buffet with no intentions of refilling them
• The service was nice and friendly and the staff were very helpful quite contrary to what read in the reviews
• This is a wonderful place to eat at if you are craving some nice vegetarian food
• The service however is a little sub par but the food more than makes up for it
• It offers a wide selection with everything cooked perfectly well
• The prices are also reasonable
• The ambiance was also very nice and unpretentious
• A nice place with some really good and affordable food right in the heart of London
• Doesn't take pre bookings and the setting is quite ordinary really
• The service is quick and wonderful
• If you like south Indian food this is the place for you
• Their coconut chutney was a surprise for us
• The only loophole we found is that Diwana Bhel Poori House (Euston) did not take bookings

• The Rava Delux Dosa that I tired was delicious and was accompanied by hot and spicy sambhar
• The chutneys I tried were rather fresh
• In my opinion it is just a money making scam
• Unless everyone with you is present
• My personal favorite is their paneer dosa
• I had wanted to check it out for a really long time and was glad to have finally paid it a visit
• The place has a youth hostel kind of ambiance and is very simplistic

• The all you can eat menu is so cheap and filling
• Especially with some lovely vegetarian options
• This restaurant was alright in my opinion
• I expected a lot more from it due to its long association with the city and its crowd
• Their Gujarati dishes are off the mark and not really that authentic as i would have liked
• The portion size was huge and the taste was incredible too
• I tried this restaurant specialising in bhel poori and was pretty impressed with it
• The ambience resembles more of a 70s restaurant and the interior is in need of some renewal

• The prices are quite appropriate and the value for money is quite good
• I recommend one trues their amazing mango lassi and the dosa which was flavorsome and just perfect
• The lunch buffet here is worth a try
• If they run out of a dish they replace it with a new one and not re fill it

• The buffet at 6.95 is an excellent deal and an easy way to show other people what different types of food are available in India
• Gulab jamun and rasmalai were good to try as well
