Lively Indian small-plates spot with standout curries and many veg options, but portions skew small and delivery can be unreliable; dine-in value is better than takeaway.
Little Curry House delivers solid neighborhood dining through flavorful, well-executed curries and attentive, knowledgeable service that guide diners through its tapas-style concept. However, inconsistent execution across visits—occasional quality dips and delivery reliability issues—prevents a higher grade, while the modest space and tight seating limit destination appeal. Worth visiting for authentic Indian flavors and friendly hospitality, though manage expectations around portion sizes and order accordingly.
On Byres Road, Little Curry House feels warm and bustling rather than formal. Servers guide you through the tapas-style menu, and plates land fast enough that one diner said the team was on the ball. Most praise the flavors as rich and fresh, though a few delivery experiences frustrated people with lateness or missing orders. The cooking leans classic Indian with a small-plates twist—think butter chicken, house black daal, fish pakora, and saag, plus streety snacks like gol-gappa. It suits grazers who like variety and sharing; order thoughtfully because portions are modest and rice or breads add up. Veg and vegan eaters do well from the core menu, though a festive set once underdelivered for plant-based diners. For families, the relaxed room and familiar dishes (naan, pakora, mild curries) work well, and small plates make sharing easy. Just note portions trend smaller, so budget an extra dish or side to keep kids happy; there is no explicit kids menu but plenty of kid-friendly choices.
