Tawa Kitchen - Cambridge

Almost hidden around the back of a large building on Station Road, Tawa have the advantage of being away from busy traffic, yet close to the main Cambridge station. I booked a table for two there on the recommendation of a friend who really knows his food! and thoroughly agree with him: this place is producing excellent cuisine. Given the mild evening, we initially sat outside for drinks, nibbles and starters, before heading inside for the main course. There are plenty of dishes on the menu you will recognise, some with a 'twist, and quite a few that are different to the norm but sound delicious! It 's worth noting that vegans, vegetarians and meat eaters are well catered for. Possibly my favourite from tonight is their Indian variation of a Scotch Egg: superb! Pricing is good and service attentive but not overbearing. Definitely recommended.

Our server, Swati, was both friendly and humble. She recommended the restaurant’s signature dish, and we decided to try the chicken biryani, which was fantastic. Overall, we had a wonderful experience at Tawa Kitchen, and we will definitely return on our next visit to Cambridge. I wish Swati and the entire team at Tawa Kitchen much success!

Tawa offers a great variety of Indian dishes that go beyond the standard fare. The menu features an equal mix of vegetarian and meat options, offering traditional flavors along with innovative twists to please different palates. From the appetizers to the main courses, each dish was beautifully presented. Our total bill came to a reasonable £120 for four, which included starters, mains, drinks, and tip. Given the quality of the food, the enjoyable ambiance, and the exceptional service, I found it to be a fair price for a memorable dining experience. If I had to offer one critique, it would be that the tables are a bit cramped, necessitating some careful navigation of our space. Additionally, while the restaurant has a modern, industrial vibe—which is appealing—it feels more suited for a quick meal than for a leisurely evening out. Overall, Tawa Indian Restaurant in Cambridge is a hidden gem for anyone craving delicious Indian cuisine. Its close proximity to the train station, combined with outstanding service and a vibrant menu, makes it an excellent choice for dining with friends or family. **Service:** Dine-in **Meal type:** Dinner **Price per person:** £30–40 **Food:** 5 **Service:** 5 **Atmosphere:** 4 **Recommended dishes:** Chicken Biryani **Recommendation for vegetarians:** Somewhat recommend **Vegetarian offerings:** Large vegetarian selection
