Syed Bashar · Proprietor

Jaflong Tandoori has been run by the same family since 2008. No head office, no chain playbook — just our own family in the kitchen and on the floor, six evenings of prep a week, grinding spices fresh and baking every naan to order in the tandoor.
Being "the best Indian in Richmond" isn't something we think you can claim once and keep. It's earned again on every plate, so we keep tasting, tweaking recipes, retraining the pass and reading every review — the critical ones most of all. Eighteen years in, we still cook as if the table is family, because most weeks it genuinely is: the same regulars, the same names, the same order-without-looking-at-the-menu.
Meat comes from trusted halal suppliers, rice is Laila gluten-free basmati, and nothing leaves the kitchen unless it is good enough for our own dinner table. That standard is the whole job, and we intend to keep raising it.
"After 18 years, this restaurant is more than a business — it's family, and we're still trying to do better than last night."
Rated 4.9/5 across 5,700+ customer reviews on Google, TripAdvisor and the major delivery platforms.

Read our storyTrusted halal suppliers
Meat and poultry come from suppliers providing halal-certified products. We are not a separately certified premises, and we will say so plainly if you ask.
How we sourceValues are easy to write and harder to prove, so each one below links to the page where you can check it for yourself.
Ingredients we can name, and stand behind.
Meat comes from trusted halal suppliers, rice is Laila gluten-free basmati, and spices are ground in-house rather than bought as ready-made pastes. Every dish has a published allergen breakdown.
The same plate, whichever evening you visit.
Curries are finished to order, naan is baked in the tandoor when you order it, and the kitchen holds a 5/5 food hygiene rating. Recipes and portioning are set by the family, not improvised shift to shift.
Looked after like family, not like table 12.
No service charge, BYOB with no corkage, and clear dietary guidance before you order. If something isn't right, we would rather remake it than have you finish a plate you didn't enjoy.
Still trying to do better than last night.
We read every review across Google, TripAdvisor and the delivery platforms — currently 4.9/5 from 5,700+ of them — and the critical ones shape the next week's prep more than the glowing ones do.

“We order every Friday — the lamb biryani is hands-down the best in Richmond. Perfectly spiced, generous portions, always piping hot on arrival.”

Tandoori grillsThe tandoori mixed grill is the plate guests photograph most — charred edges from the clay oven, served straight to the table.
Read guest reviewsIn an age of dark kitchens and 15-minute curries, we still cook the way Sylheti grandmothers taught us. Every dish, fresh to order. Every spice, ground that morning. This is the difference Richmond comes back for — week after week, year after year.
Every naan, kebab and tandoori dish is fired in our traditional clay oven — the same way Sylheti chefs have cooked for generations.
We grind our masalas every morning from whole spices — cumin, cardamom, fennel, cloves. Never pre-mixed, never shortcuts.
Fully certified by the Halal Monitoring Committee. The standard British Muslim families trust — verified, not assumed.
Founded by Mr. Syed and run by the same family for 18 years. No chains, no franchises — just one kitchen, one obsession.
We don't cook for trends. We cook for the families who've been coming here since 2008, and the ones who'll be here in 2040.
— Mr. Syed, Founder & Head Chef

“The Chicken Achanak is genuinely the best curry I've had in Richmond. Spices are fresh, the tandoor char is real, and the team remembered us on our second visit.”

“Genuinely lovely family-run place. Not the flashiest room, but the food and hospitality far outstrip the fancier spots down the road. Byob is a nice touch.”
