The elegant interior of Red Fort, with its attractive water feature and plain sandstone walls is a world away from the heavy chintz of many Indian restaurants, and the same slick style is reflected in the cooking. Back in the 1980s, Mohamed Rais' kitchen pioneered the light, simple food that has become the template for gourmet Indian dining in London. He has kept his standards high and his prices reasonable - and exceptionally good value on the lunch and pre-theatre set menus. The menu includes curry-house classics and regional specialities cooked with care and subtle, authentic spicing. Cumin and mint are the signature flavours, along with the smoky tang of the tandoor oven.
