Colony Restaurant in Redbridge

Me and my boys came here to watch the Chelsea vs Liverpool FA Cup Final. Lovely service food was amazing nice seating and excellent shisha could not complain about anything. Cleanliness was not an issue. Definitely recommend friends and family to come here.

Our first time at Colony today (Thursday - bank holiday). Had a really chilled atmosphere. Decor is really nice. We were seated straightaway. We ordered Strawberry Daiquiri (good) and strawberry Mojito (nice) as our drinks. For starters we had Grilled Lamb Momos (amazing), Andhra chilli chicken (spicy and tasty) and Prawn Pataka Jhinge (good). For our mains we ordered chicken biryani (nice), butter chicken (really good), tandoori lamb karahi (really good), garlic naan and pilau (decent). For dessert we ordered the Chocolate brownie with ice cream and it was a good ending to our evening. Would definitely recommend to all family and friends.Only note to Colony (every staff member was very polite and helpful throughout) would be to employ more staff as it seemed like there wasn’t enough manpower to get the bill over (we waited 10-15mins) and also drinks etc. Still 5star overall! 👍🏾

Their Strawberry mojito was so refreshing and the best i have ever had. Samosa chaat and Papri chaat were also the best I have ever had. No complaints! The main dishes weren’t that bad but could have been better. The dessert was great too.The only downside was that they charge for tap water.

A very delicious food and very interesting flavours. We ordered a variety of dishes and shared to have a taste of everything. Loved it all, and their salad was really nice, although I would have added salt, lemon and oil to match the taste I am used to.

Nice atmosphere, a step up compared to other restaurants in the area but over priced, average tasting food. You could go next door, pay 1/4 of the bill and get much tastier food but obviously not the same decor.

Fairly Disappointing.This place used to be good 2 years ago.The food range was much better.The portion sizes were way bigger.I was disappointed to receive my food after knowing the price I paid for a portion that small.The food is overpriced & portion sizes are too small.I’ll be entirely honest, the food isn’t great, it lacks flavour. It does need a lot of improvement if I’m honest. If only colony could go back to the old menu with the old portion sizes.If you are visiting for shisha, just be aware that the heads are not filled completely with flavour. You will notice the shisha dies out very quickly.

Fancy a high end indian restaurant experience, pop over to Colony in Seven Kings. Luxury, spacious and clean setting. Modern decor, vibrant atmosphere and a delightful experience. A wide variety of food options including the regular curries and so much more.There is a huge shisha bar at the back once you finish to relax.Salim Patel

Lovely decor and well spaced out dining and lounge. Opted to visit the shisha lounge with friends on a Thursday night as its quite mellow chilled vibe, music not to loud so you can actually chat comfortably without the need to shout and I prefer visiting on a week night for a more chilled atmosphere and attentive service. However if you visit on a Friday or Saturday you probably won't receive the same level of attentiveness due to a busy lounge however this is minor and common in most places, it will be lively and fun im sure.The shisha - was smooth for 2 hours straight,  changed coals frequently and sorted any issues with the pipe. The staff in the lounge were very attentive, friendly and informative. Especially impressed with Saira, who helped us with our food selection, drinks and shisha reccomendation, she also modified a dish for us by speaking to the kitchen and checked up on us through the evening. I found Saira and the lounge staff friendly, professional and I would visit again due to the atmosphere, decor and comfortable surroundings.How much did we pay? Just a little over £100 for 3 (inc food, drinks, chai  x1 shisha)  Well , its a bit on the pricey side and the new menu portions are very  small for my liking. If they do keep the prices high please include fries with your burgers I don't get the separate burger, separate chips menu surely. Food is tasty but price is high, you don't get alot for your money unfortunately but wait...I still had a good time here and it will be a regular lounge to visit!

Good good. Prawns not so much. Drinks fine, ambience good, toilet needs a clean and maybe refurbishment. Staff polite and attentive. Been there before and likely to be going back. Would recommend. Nice place to go. They do sheesha for those who are interested. Very busy but not too much.

A very disappointing experience. I have been here on two separate occasions - once for shisha and once for food. Both times I felt this place was overpriced and over hyped.When dining in I must admit service was not terrible but not that great either. The place is beautiful and food looked stunning. However portions where abysmal and taste nothing special. The dessert is why I’m giving this two stars instead of one. No tap water is always annoying as well something I can overlook if the overall experience is good but unfortunately that was not the case hereWe went on a late night for shisha and again were left underwhelmed. Usually if I don’t like a place I just won’t review it but this was too bad of an experience to ignore it.Disclaimer - I went a while back but hadn’t had a chance to review so hopefully it’s improved since
