Square Meal review of Babur:

Celebrating its 22nd birthday this year, Babur is slicker & tastier than ever. Proud owner Emdad presides over a smartly dressed front-of-house team serving inspired dishes amid the restaurant’s classy new look of slate, exposed brick & Indian artworks. From a frequently changing menu, you might kick off with ostrich infused with fenugreek & sandalwood, or char-grilled black salmon marinated in yoghurt & carom seeds, & progress to red snapper served with a delicious Himalayan berries sauce & a neat helping of risotto, or curried rabbit in ground aromatic spices. Some early discipline on the part of the diner is strongly encouraged, as those who get carried away with the poppadoms & delicious homemade chutneys may end up too full to delve into the delightful dessert selection. A curry house this is not & the prices, though hardly West End, tell you so.
