Editor’s Note

Our take: Ali Bar Bar North Indian Kitchen, nestled within Bar Bar Black Sheep, presents a mixed bag based on public sentiment.

While some patrons praise the 'seriously good Indian cuisine,' highlighting dishes like biryani rice, korma chicken, and butter naan, others find the offerings less impressive.

The Butter Chicken, for instance, has been described as lacking punch and overly sweet, contrasting with positive mentions of the naans.

The Chicken Kebab also received criticism for being too salty.

Service appears to be a point of contention, with one reviewer reporting an hour-long wait for food and staff indifference.

However, another positive review specifically commends the staff.

We think this spot might be best for a casual meal where expectations are tempered, especially if you're already at Bar Bar Black Sheep for drinks.

The inconsistency in food quality and service suggests it's not a guaranteed hit, but the positive comments about certain dishes and the naan offer some hope.

Verdict: A convenient option if you're in the area and craving Indian, but be prepared for potential inconsistencies in both food and service.

What customers say

Ali Bar Bar North Indian Kitchen receives mixed reviews, with some customers praising the Indian cuisine, particularly the biryani, korma chicken, and naans.

However, others found dishes like the butter chicken and chicken kebab to be lacking in flavor or overly sweet/salty.

A significant concern is the long wait times and perceived indifference from staff, especially for non-Indian dishes like pasta.

We had the chicken kebab and the butter chicken. Garlic naan was on the flatter side. Ordinary. Butter chicken lacks punch and overly sweet. Kebab was just salty. Can give this a miss

This little outlet inside of Bar Bar Black Sheep slings some seriously good Indian cuisine. I ordered biryani rice, korma chicken and butter naan. It was so good that I scarfed down all of it in under…
