Bringing the fiery spirit of Kolkata’s Tangra district to the heart of Soho, TANGRA is a bold Indo-Chinese restaurant that promises late-night energy and explosive flavour. Set on Frith Street, just steps from Ronnie Scott’s and Bar Italia, this 60-cover spot promises bold, colourful regional Indian cookery, and party vibes continuing late into the night.
Executive Chef Nikesh Sawant (ex-Mildreds) leads the kitchen, drawing on a rich culinary heritage shaped by India’s Hakka Chinese community. The result is a menu that fuses wok-fired technique with punchy Indian spices, layered with influences from Tibet, Nepal and the wider diaspora. Expect fast, fiery plates built for sharing, with standout dishes like Chilli Paneer Hakko, Himawan Sadeko Chick’n and the TANGRA Special Combination Rice.
Sawant’s cooking is all about attitude and freshness – every dish is crafted with top-quality produce and designed to hit hard with flavour. From the smokiness of the wok to the zing of garlic and chilli, this is Indo-Chinese food reimagined for pure enjoyment.
The interiors, designed by Quadrant Design with creative input from Mumbai’s Boomranng Studio, mirror the menu’s energy: vibrant, textured and unapologetically alive. Neon accents, retro laminates and hand-painted signage create a multi-sensory space that channels the buzz of Mumbai’s street stalls and the electric pulse of Soho nights.
Open seven days a week for lunch, dinner and late-night eats, TANGRA is a celebration of bold flavours, shared plates and nights that don’t want to end, set right in the beating heart of London's cultural centre.
