Golden Curry

Golden Curry has been a fixture on Clements Road since 1966, making it one of the longest-running Indian restaurants in Ilford and one of the few that can credibly claim to have served several generations of the same local families. The family business built its reputation on classic North Indian cooking: lamb rogan josh, chicken tikka masala, and seekh kebabs prepared to recipes that have changed little over the decades. The mirrored dining room seats a modest crowd; the atmosphere is unhurried and the service personal. Regulars order in ahead for collection and the word among Ilford curry-house devotees is that few takeaways in the area match its consistency. Evenings only; closed Tuesdays.
